Hey there, I upgraded from Android 6 to 8 with my PX5 headunit. Everything is working fine, except the fact that I have to turn on wifi manually everytime the device come back from auto sleep. Is there a known solution for this problem? Thanks!
[MTCD Software Development] rigattoni:
Anyone using Tasker on his unit?

As far as I could see is, that all available Android 8 builds have no possibility to change the screen brightness by Tasker. This is because the dev did not use the regular Android API to change the brightness.

Could you guys please check if it works on your units?

There are more things not working on Oreo ... One thing I noticed is Contacts Sync on Google Accounts.
[MTCD Software Development] xdamember2:
Install Google contacts sync adapter and give it permissions.
[MTCD Software Development] scorillo_ro:
Do you have a link to this?
[MTCD Software Development] rigattoni:
Just search for Google Contacts in Google play store .
[MTCD Software Development] scorillo_ro:
Have you done that? Had this problem and resolved it like that? I guess not!

The first thing I've tried was to install Google Contacts, but is not working.
[MTCD Software Development] rigattoni:
Yes, I did it some weeks ago and I got all my contacts imported to TomTom navigation.
[MTCD Software Development] scorillo_ro:
I also can see the contacts in Waze navigation, but not in any of the Contacts apps I've tried
[MTCD Software Development] rigattoni:
I can´t see your issue in my setup... sorry.
[MTCD Software Development] xdamember2:
Do a Google search for Google contacts sync adapter, and choose your favorite mirror.
[MTCD Software Development] Bonsario:
No solution for that? :(

Dear pals,

Is it possible to update dmcu for MCTD, with a MTCE one.

I mean the last update for dmcu is named MTCE and not MTCD, is it OK to use it?

Thanks in advance

Need help please

Hi :)

I have a Gs HU (Xtron pb96mtvapl) without sd card slot. I successfully updated to android 8 with homemade OTG cable.

But now wifi/bt, usb port didn't work and i dont know why :( after I upgrade back to android 6, surprise wifi, bt, usb didn't work.

Any idea how to fix it? Please help me
[MTCD Software Development] scorillo_ro:
Read more on the thread you followed for the OTG cable. Most probably you damaged the connector of the android board (SOM).

This can be because the size of the pins you used for the OTG cable were thicker than the pins on the main board, so you damaged the connector by force insert them. The wifi pins are at the edge of the android board, so probably you bent them when you pulled out the board.

Those damages can not be visible, but can lead to no connectivity to the WIFI / Bluetooth chip and to the USB hub.

Luckily you can resolve this connectivity problems by gently bend the corresponding pins on the main board.

I tried to run the install via GPS SD card and via USB, both failed with the same error.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

[MTCD Software Development] maus05:
Use the instructions for root with supersu (method from copycat228). You can find it in another thread.

I rooted my head unit without problems.
[MTCD Software Development] Doctor1234:
This method?

[MTCD Software Development] Doctor1234:

[MTCD Software Development] Doctor1234:
The video is super clear thanks :D

The only issue I have now is to connect the HU to the same network of my laptop, because I do not reach my home wifi from my parking place :( maybe I can share my phones wifi hotspot and use it as. bridge, I will give it a try.

So you say that you have done this and you have root 100% right?

Thanks again for your help.
[MTCD Software Development] maus05:
Yes, root is working.

The first I have done after rooting was to delete Gmail and pinyin input from the system with root explorer...

Please can you help me Hi I have a witson octa core PX5 4gb and recently the screen froze on boot up, tried resetting cant get into recovery. will I need a stock oreo rom? and if so how to do I make a sd card and where can I get a rom ...thank you
[MTCD Software Development] tonijuvani:
Hi, could you specify which exact zip file is meant above? I've installed the latest stock Oreo (HA_PX5_8.0_ota_(20180726）.7z) on my HA PX5 and I expect to have the md725 (how do I verify that?). However, bluetooth does not seem to work.

I originally used an self-made USB cable to upgrade from Android 6 to 8 using Malaysk's recovery, but writing Malaysk's ROM (1.1 and 2.0) failed so now I'm stuck with stock ROM and a non-working bluetooth.

Why should anyone use Android Auto with a real Android Car Unit?

The car unit can do it better, faster itself and can do more than a AA connection would do.
[MTCD Software Development] Maritetasio:
yes it is, but I do not have 3g network, only from the mobile and very limited, so I would like to make a mirror from the mobile so as not to abuse data
[MTCD Software Development] suspenders715:
Look up Head Unit Reloaded. Very good app to use Android auto on these units.
[MTCD Software Development] rigattoni:
You won´t abuse data if you don´t tether WiFi and use an offline navigation... So there is no need to use AA.... never.

The radio does not use more online data as the phone.

I use tethering all day long, with online traffic, Skype by voice, all app updates come in automatically and I don´t use more than ~1GB/month data volume. If you would cut off automatic updates and don´t use other online communication, just online traffic data, you would be able to reduce the traffic to less than 300MB/month.

...on top you are not limited to Google Maps and the regular Google apps.
[MTCD Software Development] Maritetasio:
If I will, thank you very much

Hey guys, I'm having a hard time trying to install the Malaysk Rom and would appreciate some help ...

I'm running a Sygav 10,2" with Android Oreo 8.0

I created the 2 micro sd card like in the instruction. First card using SD filmware tool, selecting my sd card, upgrade firmware is click, android 6.0 is selected than I click create and everything works fine. I also replaced the sdupdate.img file from the .rar ...

That micro sd card just wont do nothing when I power the radio. I can see it's starting with the logo so I know it wasn't to sleep but the micro sd never start anything during startup. I tried other cards but they all do the same. Cards are detected by the radio cause once it complete startup I have a notification about a new sd card.

Can someone tell me what am I doing wrong ?

Thanks
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
Is your sdcard formatted in FAT32 ?
[MTCD Software Development] DSM4LIFE-AWD:
Yes it is my friend.
[MTCD Software Development] maus05:
If your head unit have only one sd card slot, I think it is not bootable. If it have two slots, try the other one. Not all head units have a bootable one...
[MTCD Software Development] DSM4LIFE-AWD:
Yes it only has one sd card slot, it does have 3 usb input once the wiring is plugged but only one SD which is for gps in the front.

So what are my option if I can't boot from the sd card ?

I just realized I posted on the wrong thread I'm sorry ...

Seems pointless me trying if youre nearly there.

Good luck ! :)

Great !!!

2 quick questions:

1) This ROM works on MTC-D/E PX5 2 GB and PX5 4GB, right? (I understand the chips are mainly the same, besides the extra memory)

2) Once the first update from Android 6 to 8 is done, future updates will be done in the "normal" way? (assuming vendors provide .img updates to be installed over Android 8)

Thanks !!

[MTCD Software Development] alukarulz:
Will this work for hot-audio head unit? HA mcu. I'm currently running Malasyk v6.2

also will we be able to root it?
[MTCD Software Development] marchnz:
From the Oreo ROM extract and the [PX5 Upgrade tools] - which are contained in the Oreo ROM share - we should now have enough to build/pack the Oreo ROM for installing via the SDCard/USB creation tool SD_Firmware_Tool.exe.

First, to "build' the rom, the following example might be useful from the [PX5 Tools] pack, placing our extracted Oreo ROM contents in the appropriate directory:

#@Afptool -pack .\backupimage backupimage\backup.img
Afptool -pack .\Android .\Android\Image\update.img

RKImageMaker.exe -RK33 .\Android\\Image\\MiniLoaderAll.bin .\Android\Image\update.img .\Android\sdupdate.img -os_type:androidos

rem update.img is new format, .\Android\Image\update.img is old format, so delete older format
del .\Android\Image\update.img

pause

Note: For english SD_Firmware_Tool, change the config.ini

[Language]
Kinds=2
Selected=2

Create a bootable SDCARD, insert into GPS slot/appropriate USB (1?) and boot headunit, which should boot this Card/Stick and begin the flash process (just as the instructions are written for this tool on MTCB forums).

Will someone go to create a img?

[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
Congrats [MENTION=4974080]marchnz[/MENTION] for the extraction. The next is trying:

1) check if works on coreboard rev4, in case something wrong you have the jig to put all back as it was..

2) check if new android 8 updates could be installed as they are provided.

I have to ask for a new one to Dasaita.

Will try this weekend. If anyone else wants to try and result in brick, I would be happy to reload with SOM Sent to me with return freight. I'm fairly confident it won't brick and we have the SDCard tool now anyway.

Also, anyone wishing to make JIg. From the work I've done, Ive realised you don't need another mainboard. You could temporarily solder connections to SOM or make JIG from header pins.

Need:

Header pins to fit SOM.

USB male cable, cut one end off for wires

5v and 3.3v power supply.

1. Using schematic as guide. Connect earth and +5v pins. Connect 3.3v to [rtc_3.3]

2. Connect USB wires to SOM [USB-OTG] connections

3. Connect wire to SOM [ctl_recovery] and wire that to 3.3v.

With USB connected, power on. Use tools/load driver as described in recovery thread.
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
Yes, thats what I thought - no need to rely on you for unbricking now we have a version of sdfirmware tools that works.

I have a rev4 SoM and a rev8 one, better get flashing . . . you too [MENTION=744370]ikerg[/MENTION] and anyone else . . .

Tried.....

I don't know why in my case doesn't work.

Usb is not recognized on pc...

This is how I got connected the coreboard...

Initially I did power 5v from my psu but finally decided to power from usb

Red wire is usb 5v

Black is usb grnd

Green is data+

White is data-

Blue is pin20 recovery

Brown is rtc on pin9

Both are connected to 3.3v from psu

Oreo ROM repacked from ROM dump

here

Note: This flashable PX5 Oreo ROM is UNTESTED. Attempt to apply at your own risk

Both [update] and [sdupdate] images have been created. [supdate] should be tried first.

just checked, update.img hasn't uploaded - shouldn't be an issue because you want sdupdate.img. will upload update.img tomorrow.

If soft brick, theory is, the same SDCARD tool can be used to recreate / flash back your Android 6 ROM - but I have not yet had time to test this. Worst case, if unit does not boot, SOM could be recovered by OTG, as detailed in my other threads or sent to me for reflash at your return-freight cost.

How to install: Use SDCARD creator tool in same location to create a bootable upgrade SDCARD. No further instruction will be given, if you're not an experienced with MTCD units, I do not recommend you try this.

Warning acknowledged, please post your results.
[MTCD Software Development] iJo09:

I created a boot sdcard by using this img.

And it did not boot at all.
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
He is wrong - if your unit has 1 sdcard it WILL be bootable.

It doesnt really matter bout the thread - the procedure for flashing all ROMs is the same.
[MTCD Software Development] Xorit:
Sorry, have to correct you, since my unit has 1 SD 2 USB and is not bootable :) -> OTG Flash required.

Depends on whether the SD slot is recoqnized as USB3 or GPS in the system. 1st wont boot.
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
Never come across that before, you should open your unit and move the sdcard ribbon connector to the GPS slot, sounds like someone wired it incorrectly at the factory.
[MTCD Software Development] Xorit:
hehe - not only forgotten to connect correctly ... they literally missed soldering the connector AND the slot is on the display board, which is seperate from the unit box, where the GPS aint even fully wired.

Forget about that, since Im fine with it - just wanted to point that out. (MX unit with Opel Astra J facia)
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
Its not unusual for a unit to have the connector on the display board, or indeed a "control" board (one with knobs and buttons on it), but theyre always wired to the mobo somehow. Over the past year some manufacturers are leaving of sdcard slots altogether, but this is the first I ve heard of putting one on, but not making it bootable, idiots.
[MTCD Software Development] Xorit:
on my unit the display board is seperate due to the style my car comes with.

There s a big connector for the display itself and a small one for peripherie which I traced the SD (USB3) wires to.

On the display board itself is nothing which relates to GPS, but only SD and USB.

Here I connected my reset button to have recovery.
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
One of those connectors on the board may also take sdcard connections too, even hough it isnt labelled - when sdcards are on on boards that also contain buttons/knobs/controls etc theyre often not labelled.
[MTCD Software Development] Xorit:
Those connectors are labled for SD though, but none with similar size and they do nothing when connected.

Tried all connectors by plugging the cable in, even in the silver box itself, no sauce.

I'm ok with the situation though :) -> the disassembling is a super cluster fck, as you have to rip almost the whole dash apart to reach the HU.
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
If youre happy as it is, fair enough, but some units have sdcards mounted on boards that also contain a knob and some buttons, maybe the mic, the remote receiver etc, which is then connected to the mobo, these units dont have "sdcard" printed near the connector (cos the connector is for a board that has other things on it too), the connectors are also bigger than an sdcard only ribbon cable, I m just saying if you had a peripheral board like that the sdcard may work and be bootable but pointless you trying to source a board etc as youre happy with it a it is. :)
[MTCD Software Development] Xorit:
Nah you're correct.

On my screens I can identify all the ports you mentioned.

As said, I tried the connectors, but due to wrong size + pin layout the card reader wasn't detected.

If I ever come to the point where I need to flash via bootable SD I will investigate further.

Still many thanks for the insights :)

Hi to everyone...

I just want to write down what i've been through last days updating from a PX3 (16gb+1GB) to a PX5 (32GB+4GB)

I just ordered a px5 board to upgrade my Erisin HU, just swap the boards and nothing worked...trying to back to px3 and same problem. Few days later after reading some post forums trying to know whats happened.. open my HU and try to screw down my new px5 board again...suddenly it wored (maybe first time not all the pins fit well...i dont know)

Well....PX5 came with android 6 and 1024x600 screen instead 800x480 that my screen HU is...no problem beacuse dmcu.ext info is different between px3 an px5. Old one dmcu was "screen:4" now "screen:1" is the correct one.

Reading post about upgrading px5 to Oreo rom was easy and that is what i would do

Flashing oreo recoverey

Flashing oreo rom

Flash latest mcu for Erisin (LM)

all process successfully done....start trying functions (sd card, usb, music, radio, wifi....)

add my google account, install all my apps

but BT is not working...

Many post about oreo roms and MD725 BT module....i tried everything i read (change BT module in factory settings..etc)

When i was reading about downgrade to Android 6.0 to see if BT works on that....i have found a directory where all manufactures update.zip where listed

Go there , pickup last LM version (MCU and upgrade image)....LM_288+ 20180416....i have notice that [MENTION=6738895]kumarai[/MENTION] version of Oreo Rom was 201711 or so...

Upgrading process all done...and now my MD725 module works. No problem of pairing phone, making BT calls. Everything works flawless.

I let this long post to all user that have been struggling with his BT modules not working in oreo roms...i hope this can help them
