A bit embarrassed to ask but does anyone know how to get into recovery on the PX5 135 units (Pic included) MTCD/E units? I've got a soft bricked unit after a launcher update and I want to just clear cache and maybe data. I have tried to the alt/print screen plus tapping E and/or I w/o any luck. I noticed I don't get power to the keyboard (No numlock LED) until it's nearly booted though so that may be a fruitless effort anyway. Tried to hold power while resetting and then hitting power again like on some older joying 135s I had but that also does not work. I was hoping to get into recovery and try this before having to redo this entire head unit all over again.. I am either greeted w/ a hung android is starting or a background screen that is blank.

If I recall when I installed HAL9K last year I had to install his custom recovery, perhaps accessing that is different or not possible? I don't see that being the case but I've been in android development for years and I've never had an issue getting into recovery on any android device.

I'm curious if the recovery access procedure is the same among all 135 models (Some are MTCD/E, some are FJY, some are QD). Joying doesn't sell the MTCD/E, rather the QD and FYT. The one I have is sold by Corehan. I have to assume these guys don't make their own units rather throw their label on them. Corehan can't (Or wouldn't) tell me how to get into recovery when I needed to 6 months ago either so I'm completely out of options here. If I recall to get HAL9K installed originally I Just installed an apk which booted me to recovery. If I had adb access I could get into recovery via CLI but i've not been able to. I even got a USB gender changer cable to try to connect to usb adb but no dice there either.

An input would be appreciated,

thanks guys

Dave

**UPDATE**

I did get it back up somehow, even after car was powered off radio stayed on and I was greeted w/ an android failed to boot so I clicked retry and oddly it came back up. Not sure what that was all about. I'd still like opinions on how to get into recovery.

Also, noticed I have a screenshot icon in status bar that I have no option to remove. Is that removable? Don't see it as a toggle in mod settings.

Thanks

I'm tempted to move to Android 9 but I do like your ROMs, and I don't want to set-up everything with one of the already existing Android 9 only to change it again in some weeks (plus having to donate / contribute / pay twice :( )

after trying to do the upgrade from 6 to 8 my unit seems dead. it just stays off. I just can hold the reset button and see the lights flash, however i cant get into recovery mode.

anything i can do?

data of my unit:

2GB

A-MEDIA AUTO (1024x600 0)

Android 6.0.1

Kernel

what i did:

Download and unpack the archive Hal9k_Mod_3.x_Android_6.0_upgrade.rar:

Insert the SD card into the card reader. It is desirable to use a small card, 2-4-8 GB.

Run the SD_Firmware_Tool application as Administrator.

You do not need to switch any settings. Everything is set up.

Click the "Firmware" button and select the file bootcard.img

Click the "Create" button, then "Yes" and wait until the message with the "Ok" button appears.

Close SD_Firmware_Tool.

Copy the sdupdate.img file to this card, replacing the existing one.

then i copied the dmcu.img to the same sd card and upgraded it through the settings menu (worked fine)

then booted to recovery mode and clicked on update system.. it was doing something and then the screen turned black

Strange behavior after clean install

Hi.

I've just recovered my board via OTG with clean Android 8 ( [MENTION=6738895]kumarai[/MENTION] images).

My unit worked properly, but I wanted to install HAl9 version.

I've downloaded from first post (https://goo.gl/kot7Rd) v 3.1 - "Hal9k_Mod_3.1_MTCD_MTCE_PX5_1024x600_800х480_eng"

Uploaded to SD files: "ModInstaller.apk" and "update.zip"

When I've inserted SD card unit just after few seconds restarted and entered in to "system installation mode" - with Android robot with progress bar.

Then I saw that It upgraded Recovery to 8.0.6.

Then in recovery I applied "system update" from SD, made Wipe, and then rebooted.

Now my unit in strange way enters boot loop with led's flashing. (see move/gif attached)

I can enter Recovery mode, I even tried to made cleanup/ reinstall system update form SD, but all of that ends with the same boot loop.

Can someone give me any hints how to properly install now Hal's rom?

Thanks

Bluetooth issue

Hello,

I have headunit with PX3, now upgraded with PX5 coreboard. Stock MCU was MTCD_KLD_1.97b, now updated to MTCE_KLD_3.01.

Before update to Hal9k Mod v3.1, I've check Bluetooth type with command "getprop bt.md725.type", and it say "1".

Unfortunetly afrer upgrade to PX5 and software update, I have Bluetooth issue. With mobile I can search headunit named CAR_KIT, but can't connect. Headunit can't search any device. It lasts forever.

My Bluetooth chip is RTL8723BU, in "Factory settings" is MD725.

I've been testing several solution, but with no luck.
[MENTION=5092263]Hal9k_[/MENTION] or anybody could you help mi fix that?
[MTCD Software Development] GoNzCiD:
I'm in the same situation, I'm tried to remove the realtek chip and plug the comfast usb dongle with same result_

- Type 1 on "getprop bt.md725.type"

- WiFi ok (better range than stock chip)

- BT dont work (HU don't find any device, phone discover CAR-KIT but never pair)

I don't kno if try to buy this chip (I suppose the new version option) and solder it to the main board...
[MTCD Software Development] marchnz:
Untrue? Since when does OTG not work. Do I understand what you're saying is buy the pro version of modinstaller which is aparently faster than free OTG method :). Yes it might be more difficult than buying an app which doesnt guarantee success :)
[MTCD Software Development] Toto1365:
With the ModInstaller pro it is much easier to change the recovery mode.
[MTCD Software Development] Hal9k_:
In my opinion, no program can guarantee anything 100% :D

Therefore, the principle of software distribution “as is” appeared.
[MTCD Software Development] marchnz:
Not an opinion, OTG is the manufacturer method of flashing; if it doesn't work, then the SOM is absolutely defective. On the other hand, if your mod installer app doesn't work, it is not necessarily because the SOM is at fault.

Given I don't charge anything for my work - I developed the OTG method after significant time and effort and have helped people all around the world recover from 'bricked' devices from methods such as this. I'm not saying the app is bad at all, I am saying OTG is an available method.

Without the work I did to develop the OTG method and extract the bootloader, your upgrades off Android 6 to A8 and might have not been possible. It was the work from 3 of us on XDA ,(one even donated the SOM!) that resulted in an upgrade path. Hal has since leveraged that work.

I would love to bua thze Modinstaller but i have more than just one head unit. So i have to buy more than one beacuse it will be married with the head unit... Or?
[MTCD Software Development] Ati_gangster:
I did some tests.

The Modinstaller Pro is linked to the serial number. The serial number is not on the coreboard but probably in the MCU chip. So you could change the coreboard and do several installations.
[MTCD Software Development] daoneandonly:
so, i have to buy and install the Modinstaller Pro and in the recovery, i install the Mod from first page?
[MTCD Software Development] Toto1365:
no, if you have the modinstaller pro installed you need to start it and you can choose between recovery 6.0, 8.0 or 9.0.

Hello, I ask you this question, maybe someone can help me. I know it is not the right 3D but I try it or so. With this rom I use as launcher car web guru. I bought as a poweramp music player and when I listen to music and get a phone call, the player doesn't go into mute but under the phone call you can hear the music that actually increases a bit of volume. I tried all the poweramp audio settings but I can't set it. Does anyone have any tips or ideas? Thank you
[MTCD Software Development] aldabubo:
In poweramp settings is NOT. Only in factory settings. This unit has no split volume control (call, sms, audio, alarm) like phones, but only one volume control for all sounds. So, if you in factory settings found nothing, you must use original player - works perfect.

I've had the same problem and PowerAmp has a function to avoid that problem respectively you have to de/activate:

Go to "Settings" -> "Audio" -> "Direct Volume Control (DVC)" -> disable "Enable Direct Volume Control"...that should solve your problem.
[MTCD Software Development] aldabubo:
Yes, change priority sound output in Poweramp, but in (my) HU works not correct. I had to go back to stock player.

2) Not understand correctly, do I need to enable or disable Direct Volume Control?
[MTCD Software Development] Sc4r3Crow:
I've had that problem with my car HU.

If it's enabled and you have that problem with sound, you have to disable DVC. If it's disabled and you have the problem, you have to enable DVC.

[MTCD Software Development] 10thDmenxn:
Don't know why you guys are pushing this? MOST apps on XDA are because the dev loves to do this, not to make a living. And when guys feel like they have something really useful to them, they send money to them. This is how it has always worked. And while I like these custom roms for my HU, I'm completely disinterested as soon as they go paid. That's not what this is all about, and will ruin XDA. I mess with custom roms because it's fun to play with the customizations. But the rom that came on my Dasaita MAX6, with Nova Launcher in place is absolutely fine with me. I can customize the crap out of it with Nova, and a few other apps. So a paid version has no attraction for me. We are already paying for so many things, another paid hobby just isn't worth it. This is ONLY my opinion, and I don't speak for anyone else. But if I paid for every app I've ever used on XDA, I'd be a broke individual...

Hi guys, few days ago I've installed Hal9k ROM on my MTCE_MX_V3.17. Unit was originally with Android 9.0 with latest MX ROM from June but there was no problem to install Hal9k ROM using Hal9k_Mod_3.x_upgrade_to_Android_8.0. All ran smooth and works fine except two issues:

1. The above mentioned problem - last two tabs from Factory Settings stopped to work and makes the apk to crash. Before the installation was working fine.

Message is : com.hct.factorry has stopped

Rolled back the MCU version to MX_V3.13 but no change. Does anyone fixed this issue and how?

2. I've customized a joystick with Arduino USB HID adapter. Assigning a button to command "Turn Screen Off" was a disaster - using it shuts down the system immediately with a lot of buzzes and noises on the speakers and only thing that helps is switching off the power supply connector. Before installing the ROM was OK that command to turn on and off the screen. Any ideas?

All other is so nice, especially mod-ing mode function of steering wheel controller :)

Last but not least - great job for the developer. Hal9k - молодец!!! Many thanks for the ROM and MOD!!!

Just to update - to all that have this problem:

- Last two tabs from Factory Settings stopped to work and makes the apk to crash. Before the installation was working fine.

Message is : com.hct.factorry has stopped

After reading last 50 pages from this thread I got that solution is found by Hal9k alreday:

1. Go to the “Factory Settings” and export the configuration to dmcu.cfg file on the flash drive.

2. Open the dmcu.cfg file in the HEX editor and change byte 02 to 01 at offset 0x55

3. Go into recovery and apply the config using the "Apply update mcu" item

Sorry for repeating it but it didn't come up by Google search so if still someone else is experience this problem he has more chance to come across the solution.

Confirming it worked for me.

How do you install hal9k 8.0 over stock unit 9.0? The modinstaller just crashes. I miss split screen and pip which don't seem to work on pie xtrons unit
[MTCD Software Development] me40:
Split screen was working fine in all the 9.0 stock ROMs I've tried.

About installation of Hal9k 8.0 over stock unit 9.0:

- Use the mod upgrade from 6.0 to 8.0 "Hal9k_Mod_3.x_upgrade_to_Android_8.0.rar" - it worked on 9.0 absolutely the same way. After install starting the unit in 8.0 recovery which let you install Hal9k 8.0 MOD ROM.

- Making the SD boot card for installing the boot image was a little pain - the attached SD_Firmware_Tool ver.1.56 was not detecting the SD cards under Win10. I've downloaded older version of SD_Firmware_Tool (1.40 - 1.47) and they were detecting the cards but was not able to write the image - error was "MBR writing failed". This issue was solved when instead of formatting the card to FAT32 under windows explore context menu I did the format under Disk Part with Clean command and all after that.

Hope this will be useful to you guys.
[MTCD Software Development] me40:
I have another question. After MOD installation only way to assign functions to SWC is through MOD menu:

Instruction is clear:

Press all the wheel keys in turn and write down key codes.

Then create Original - Target pairs for the necessary codes.

But I have codes (for example 344) that is not shown in the options for targeting. How to proceed in that case if I want to use that key? Some keys are "learnt" before MOD installation and still work as assigned, but their code also is not available in the list of keys for targeting.

Any clue how to proceed?
