Thank you obfripper for your eye-opening message!

I knew that the OS version was spoofed, but I could have never thought that they would spoof the RAM amount too! Silly me.

Unfortunately, you are right. I checked with "Fake Device Test" and your point came true. And for the fact that I was still skeptical, I double checked with a terminal emulator with the "free" command, same result :'(

As for your questions, I searched for restoring the correct amount of RAM in the OS. It's a very difficult procedure, you literally have to recompile the kernel, which is something I don't have the knowledge, neither the time to do. Guess we are stuck with a scam device.

As far the launcher goes. Some apps are indeed dependent on it, some are not. Some people replaced the default apps with others (radio, phone etc) but many of them have issues and don't work, so I'm staying away of trying to replace them. The launcher could be replaced with the stock one with some effort, but although I don't like it being too simple and too "golden", I find it convenient so I decided to keep it.

The only thing I will do is change the "golden" theme which I hate, to a more fancy "green" one. This will happen soon and I will share it when it's done.

I ordered my unit in early March from banggood. I entered their site and opened a complain asking for full refund for being scammed. I'm pretty sure I'll get at least half of my money back and then I will be a little more satisfied with my purchase.

Thank you Dave for all the interesting information and I will keep you updated.

Will the device be stable when I install your custom rom. I've also this device and the navigation app keeps closing itself. When the root will fix it I hope I have a stable device. I use TomTom for navigation.
[Android Head-Units] MarkoDiMarko:
There will be no difference in stability, neither better or worse.

It's the factory ROM, only patched to be rooted with Magisk.
[Android Head-Units] ShittyNL:
I'm also contacting banggood. It's not working stable with the tomtom navigation app. I think that's becouse the app will use more ram than that's actualy available and then crash.
[Android Head-Units] _KoSTeK_:
Hi,

two days ago I received the same radio from banggood. Have you already got any feedback concerning your complain from banggood? Did you get any money back?
[Android Head-Units] MarkoDiMarko:
I opened up a dispute and they asked for photos and video, showing the problem.

I decided to upload a video on Youtube and send them the link, you can watch it here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bRxONGk_BA

Offers, declines and counteroffers started and continued. The biggest amount someone else got back and keep the device, was 40 euros + 2200 BG points. So, that was my last counteroffer to Banggood and that is what I got.

Good luck with the dispute!
[Android Head-Units] _KoSTeK_:
After a month struggling with Banggood they refunded me about 35euro. It seems, that through this whole time they have not considered my offers. It was very difficult to negotiate with them, consultant send very similar propositions and information all the time. I also wrote a negative opinion about the product but they did not post it at the auction.
[Android Head-Units] daivatam:
They seems to change cpu in the device...new one purchased on 17/07 has cpu allwinner t3 with max 1200 Mhz :( same fake 4 Gb memory and fake android....but came with already rooted firmware but not properly working root.
[Android Head-Units] Greeff:
I had the imprudence to buy a radio tape recorder for $ 113 YUEHOO YH-605 on banggood.com.

Everything in it is good according to the description and a video with disassembly and display of components confirms this. Unless the amplifier is soldered from 7388 to 7850.

But in fact it was not what was in the description.

Instead of Android 9 installed 8.1

Allwinner T3L 4 Core 1.2GHz is installed instead of Allwinner T8 8 Core 1.8GHz

Instead of 4GB of RAM, only 2GB is installed. But this is understandable. Allwinner T3L works with no more than 2GB.

bluetooth does not interface with anything other than the phone, you can forget about ELMs and bluetooth adapters for diagnostics of gas equipment (in my case Stag).

Which radio chip is soldered is not clear, the sticker was ripped off by the conspiracy the Chinese and without removing the shielding protection of the soldered one is not possible.

I can't add a photo. I have less than 10 posts. Who disassembled and who has a photo of a sticker with a radio chip designation? I have not yet been able to get the firmware from the seller in order to understand what kind of chip is indicated in it.

"translate by google", sorry.

Seems they brought out a yh-605b version

Ordered mine from banggood (deal price £90 delivered with insurance) from eu warehouse (to the uk)

I ran the fake test device app and although android version is still scammed, they have greatly improved the memory issue! Over 3gb ram (I'll run the test again and update my post with exact figures today).

The manual they provided shows a different stereos wire diagram which is confusing...

Does anyone know if the 8 pin (female on the stereo) is where the steering wheel controls plug into? Im struggling to get it working on a seat altea (factory fitted vw engine) i have the right adaptor so everything else works fine!

Also which igo files are safe to delete or are there any that need to stay? I use google maps and galaxy note 10+ 5g is the no brainer processor to run sat nav ?

Thanks ?
[Android Head-Units] MarkoDiMarko:
As I can remember hooking it up, you use the "KEY1" cable, plus I used a ground to connect them to the 2 pins that came from my car.

I have already lost the "iGO" folder during update :) But I remember that there was a folder named "iGO" that contains all the files. If you use a file explorer, I'm pretty sure you will find it and remove it safely.
[Android Head-Units] Steve1698:
I have a similar unit I purchased back in March from aliexpress. I stumbled across this post as I'm hoping to find a root solution. Mine passed the android version test on Fake Device Test app even though it's reporting as 9.0 in about device, actual is 8.1, so kinda weird it's reporting correctly everywhere but the about device section. Ram was advertised as 2GB on my device, reported accurately. The sellers page said that if it has 4 cores it is T3 and 8 cores is T8 but everything on mine is reporting as T3-P1, including Fake Device Test app and CPU-Z, even though it does show it indeed has 8 cores. Your devices specs seem to fit closest to my device of any I've seen posted about. My device specs are as follows:

Android Version = 9

Hardware Information = 8 Core Allwinner -ROM 32GB - DDR3 2GB - 1024x600

Kernel Version = Linux 4.9.118 - Wed Oct. 16 13:55:41 CST 2019

OS Version = KC1C01D5-O55-1.0.4.3.1 - BLINK_NETWORK - 20191016

MCU Version = STM32-20190924-11-KC1-38

I figure these units were probably pieced together with spare parts they had a fair amount of. I want to try your root method, but I'm a bit leary of flashing anything to this unit in fear it won't work again. I at least need to make a full back up of each partition before doing much of anything. Due to the minor differences in our Kernel, OS and MCU versions I hesitate to flash the file you provided in Post 2. I learned my lesson a few years ago on an older MTCB unit that I spent two or three days recovering after flashing an incompatible file. Would you be willing to provide the steps taken to achieve root access? Thank you in advance!
[Android Head-Units] MarkoDiMarko:
If every version is not the same as yours, do NOT use my patched version, this would be a recipe for disaster.

First make sure you have some original firmware you can always revert to (you can only be sure if you have already tested it and everything went on smoothly) and then we can discuss how you can patch the original firmware, if I can remember the procedure after so many months :)
[Android Head-Units] Steve1698:
Recipe for disaster definitely sums up my thoughts on it. If I'm not 100% sure about something I'm not gonna flash it. I'll work on extracting the partitions and/or finding working copies elsewhere and let you know. Thank you for your reply!

Edit: Given the lack of information for my particular MCU and OS versions (even over on 4pda) I've decided not to attempt root. The unit is working fine for now and nobody has posted anything with my exact version numbers anywhere that I can find. I'll just do my homework better if I decide to upgrade at some point. Thank you for your response and willingness to help though, I appreciate it!

[Android Head-Units] lucianotres:
I'm wondering if it's possible to set standby time longer than 2 hours? And if that will compromise the battery? Saying that because the startup time it's so long. Using the car every day should have an option to 1 day of standby.
[Android Head-Units] bjornsmith:
The procedure worked just fine as expected for me. The only struggle I had was to find out I had to install Visual C++ Redistributable 2008 for X86 to run PhoenixCard. I really love the this unit and I have ordered one more unit, this time with Android 10. Would be really nice if you could share the procedure of patching the original firmware so I can try it for my new unit.

Thank you!

Hi. I have done everything you say in the forum. My problem is that fixing the airbag, suddenly the radio went off and it has not worked well again. It turns on but the screen remains black. Sometimes you get to the radio screen but the touch screen doesn't work. I have managed to install the ROM on a sd card, insert it and turn on the radio. Start reading. A prompt appears in Chinese asking for the Android password. I have tried several options but nothing ... (0000, 1111, 1234, 12345678, etc ...). When I press accept, it says that it is not correct and that the data has been lost and it is going to restart the device and reload, but it has entered this loop and I don't know what to do ... Any ideas.. ?? Thank you very much.

The first image when ask for the password, the second to restart and the restart... :((((

Hey, I wanted to ask if anyone else have touch issues?

I have already tried to use "learn touch" I have the 9inch version of the head unit

Hello to all,

I just bought this yh-605 radio which was sold to me for an android10 but in reality

it was an android9, I claimed by asking them the fimware 10 it took a while but I

got it and I tried to install it but still vesion 9 in the settings.

I found this thread and I tested it with fake device test and cpuz and the surprise it tells me

that it is an android 10. I can give you the firmware and the boot but be careful

I am not responsible if something happens to your radio because I read that there are several models

this one is made for YH-

605 so I don't know if its gonna go for YH-605B.

ps: I would like the roote but I do not know much.
[Android Head-Units] andre58:
hello flambert860,

for my radio no border 1.5 cm. but maybe you have to go to the parameters and see the resolution
[Android Head-Units] andre58:

what should you do to fish it?
[Android Head-Units] steannan:

Thank you very much for this info. I used one friend FB's account (as i don't have and i'm not willing to create one :p) to join that group. Then i discovered the trick with WiFi toggle which worked (after a few attempts). Also found about the fakes (which i was skeptical first) so i figured out now why the system was so slow with all the 4GB and 8cores CPU adverted... i'll keep this crap for a while, though, as i'm not interested in an expensive upgrade now (thinking about a well known brand which is about 400+ EUR)...

[Android Head-Units] csabi710:
Hi!

I also bought a yh-605 headunit, which is sure to be fake android 10 (actually oreo). For the eight-core processor, the cpu-z writes that 4 cores are stopped (5,6,7,8), so can it be determined if it is really 8 cores? only with disassembly? Which version should I download from cobaltr4*ru? There are so many problems with the unit that it is slow to boot and I don't like the scheme. Can I expect an improvement if android8 gets on?

Thanks!

[Touch Cruise General] Bodisson:
Hi all.

I have done some search in forums, but found nothing simmilar. So, here we go:

I've got myself 8GB SanDisk microSD class 4 memory card.

And now I have some strange behaviour from it:

- I can not copy files to it using Microsoft ActiveSync Explorer (I was able to do copying when I was using 2GB Kingston microSD card).

- I CAN copy files to it using MyMobileR ver 1.23 integrated Mobile Explorer

- camera often shows too small number of remaining pictures possible (at any resolution). Pictures are going to SD card, OFC...

No items are missing from SD card, no directory names are corrupted...

Card is about 65% used, mostly by iGO 2006 maps, pictures, pocket books and mp3's...

Any ideas?
[Touch Cruise General] golles:
same sd card works fine for me.

maybe your sd card has some corrupted areas?
[Touch Cruise General] ---Alex---:
I have the same SD card and no problems.

I expect that you are using the Polaris or other equipment that supports SDHC.

I would recommend to format the card using FAT32.
[Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) Guides, News, & Discussio] Jaxus99:
Hi

I recently modified my Galaxy A8 with android pie and wanted to include Viper4Android, but there appeared to be no support for it at first. This turned out to not be true, and I could not find any comprehensive guide that told me how to do it for android pie, but it turns out there is a way!

I am not at all a root-expert and I do not understand the specifics of rooting. I am not responsible for any negative consequences to your phone. I also have some little anomalies on my phone as a few com.sec.xxxxx files are not found by the Titanium Backup app, whilst it appears according to the internet there should be. Therefore, I recommend you only do this if you can reinstall your stock firmware easily until more people have given conformation that my guide here works.

Requirements:

- Custom Recovery like TWRP

- Root with Magisk (other root apps like SU don't appear to work, as the specific module which this guide relies on is Magisk-only

- Viper4Android APK found here (this guide is for Oreo, however it worked for me with my work-around)

(https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s8+/themes/how-to-install-viper4android-android-t3752945)

- SELink set to permissive.

(I had to download a custom kernel to do this, as terminal commands, SELink changer or Knox deletion did not work to change SELink for me. I used Quantum Kernel (found here on XDA in development thread section), which works with the february 2020 security update. Great custom kernel btw!)

So you install the Viper4Android APK. This app will not work properly because it's meant for Oreo of course, so then you install the Viper4Android FX module found in Magisk, then you open the app you just installed and follow the prompts. The app GUI should change and look more modernized than before. Say yes to the driver installation and give the app SuperSU rights.

You should be good to go from here. Please do tell if my guide works for you.

All credits go to the amazing developers of the respective softwares. I only wrote this guide to make the road for the next guy like me easier. Have fun with Viper!

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] coolbuy:
Dear All,

I want to switch to AOSP from MIUI if possible. Are there any ROM's for Mi9 which doesn't have any bugs/functionality broken in AOSP. For me the camera, bluetooth, fingerprint, batterylife are very important.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] leledumbo:
AOSP based ROMs tend to be buggier than MIUI, you can either try yourself or browse each ROM's thread and see for yourself what issues people are reporting. Achieving 100% bug free is near impossible, today's OSes are too complex to be tested thoroughly with limitless configurations from one person to another. At least MIUI gives guarantee for conditions they test, most AOSP based ROMs only state "you tell me" in the bug section, showing that the ROM is lightly tested only.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] saturday_night:
Sadly there is no Bug free aosp rom and i think there will never be one. The Best you can do is using stock rom or xiaomi.eu rom and debloat it if you dont want/need miui stuff, there are two or three threads related to debloat.
