[Android Head-Units] kavirz:
I started this thread specifically for the K2001Q T3 models.

The T3/T3L has quite a few different firmwares and I am not sure if they can be exchanged and will work properly so I suggest to only load this only models that show K2001Q. The Q stands for Android 10. If you have any other K2001 models, this update will try but not work as changing Android versions can only be done using the .img file and I am not aware of any Android 10 .img file being available as yet.

If you radio shows K2001N but says Android 10, it is showing Fake Android 10 as N is Android 7. You can try this update but it will fail.

To confirm which model you have, go to Apps, Car settings, System settings, System Info. It must say K2001Q. MCUVersion doesn't matter.

I have attached a sample picture. It is also the latest firmware available for this model that I received from the manufacturer. I will post in this thread from now on as the previous thread has the T3 P1 model which this is but the K2001Q seems to be different firmware or has some different chips so might not be compatible with the other firmware. That model has the car settings in the Android settings menu which is completely different.

To update, download the zip file, rename it to update.zip, put it on the root of your flash.

Go to Apps, Car Settings, System settings, System Update. It should say there is an update available and you hit start. Unit will be reset back to factory once done. If the radio had DSP & Car Play, it will still be there when you update.

For changing the launcher, do the following:

Apps -> Car Settings -> System Settings -> Factory Settings (Password is 16176699) -> Style Settings (Password is 111333). I prefer Style 3.

Aftermarket launcher is supported:

Apps -> Car Settings ->Scroll down to desktop settings. You can select the one you have installed.

Factory settings -> Customized settings ... has a lot of options. Sleep, Voice control (never tested this), etc. If you need to change something, it will be there.

Latest Stable Update (Given to me 03/06/2024) with a software date of 20240319.

Latest update has not been fully tested. It does update and display correctly. I already had the normal radio app and not the circle one so that is still there so maybe it is the default or doesn't update. Haven't tested much else. I will try if I have time but as most could see, updates are not as often.

There are risks updating your radio so please do so at your risk. I did not write this firmware or own it or confirm it will work correctly for you. Try make sure you be as careful when updating as bricking your radio will

mean you will stuggle to fix it as no .img file is available to flash the radio directly.

**Do not update if your radio is not on 1024x800 resolution as the update will cause problems with the unit and it will not display correctly.

I unfortunately do not have the time to get updates or ask for them and I do when I can. I am not in this space anymore so I will try support and help who I can when I can. If your model is not K2001Q, please don't message me. I will not respond.

If there is nothing with your device and all works well, why update it?

If your firmware works perfectly, don't change it. Because this is a permanent update. If you need to revert, you will have to contact the person/company/manufacturer where the device was purchased from.

This device has been discontinued from the manufacturer I use so no more updates will be received from them.
