you wont need to install it... go to factory settings of the head unit > camera settings > change the camera type to Camera 360. Then reboot the head unit, 360 Camera Apk will come up automatically.

I found this on how to maybe make TWRP work on our units. haven't tried it yet. https://www.alexenferman.com/articles/TWRP/how-to-create-a-twrp-device-tree

i reed that if you push a paperclip in ”res” and hold power when turning on HU it should boot in recovery mode (not tried it, so do it on your own risk). You also need to put the HU in developer mode and the usb in debug first (don't know how to put usb in debug).

have you flashed the update? is it real android 12? my unit says 13 but it is based on 9. this is my update file.

Hi,

I also have a device with AC8257 and have recently received a firmware with the following content:

B200 WIFI 1024x600 2023.11.21 ID.1 ATCUPG.rar

mcu_202310051001BD2-1439(2).upd

Android 13 is displayed, but in reality it is Android 9 (API level 28)

Is there perhaps an update to a real Android 10 or newer?

I have this model of unit, but the radio app doesn't save the radio station, every time i turn on a car it's come to default. I searched for altrnative apps, but I found onfli NavRadio+ thet seems not compatible. Can someone help me?View attachment 6063122
[Android Head-Units] texlaws:
wow thanks I'll look into it, but I tried the reset and hold power. it did not work, thanks

I'll look into the file and see, android 9 to android 12 will not run newer apps or android auto with out it being plugedin. so you could have the update, but if you are running a 2gb with 32g or 64, it will not change the way it looks for it is a 2 gb rom. the bigger the rom / firmware the better it will look and opperate with Quad or octa core.
[Android Head-Units] texlaws:
if you can post the firmware you have I could look into it. It could be android 13 for this type of rom / firmware but the image will not change much for it could be built for a 2gb and not a 4gb or 6gb
[Android Head-Units] themaang:
i have the octa 6gb ram 128gb rom sold for Audi A3 but converted to Mercedes. new canbus from Aliexpress. some changing on cable for correct pinout.
[Android Head-Units] mad2fast:
Yes, I've already installed it and yes, I can see that it's a fake Android 13. In reality Android 9, hence the question whether there is a Rom with real Android 10?
[Android Head-Units] texlaws:
it sounds like the battery connection to the radio is not connected or not connected correctly. you should have a posative constant wire, to save all stored data. should be an easy fix
[Android Head-Units] zsolt.varga:
The connection are ok, I have check. I wrote to the product supplier and this is was the answer: "Radio stations cannot be saved"

Incredible, I think I must change radio application, but the most famous one is not compatible.
[Android Head-Units] themaang:
its because you have no idle set on unit? in factory settings you can set how many days the radio is in idle mode. mine is at 7days. it draws so little power so no need to be afraid of battery draining.

go to factory, password 8888 and loock for the setting. sorry can't remember exact. can take a look tomorrow.
[Android Head-Units] texlaws:
I loaded this firmware and it is a good Android 12, just rember to liink WIFI, to update google play store. The one in firmware is 19.3.26-all and the newer one loaded to "play store 35.2.19-21". you could try to update it to a higher one, but it is not needed, then update all app's through play store by searching for them individualy and update. this will link them to the play store account and update automaticly.

Thanks again,

and if someone find Android 13, please post
[Android Head-Units] MHC123:
MOD TRANSLATION (from translate.google.com)

"I have something like this. According to what I've read here, it's not android 13. I have a problem with it, that after about half an hour it kicks me out and the radio remains running on the basic screen and I can't switch anything, only the application that I press flashes. It is quite annoying when navigating. I would like to try putting real android 10 in there if that would help."

***************************************************

Mám niečo takéto. Podľa toho čo som tu čítal tak to nie je android 13. Mam s tým problém, že po cca pol hodine ma vyhodí a ostane bežať radio na základnej obrazovke a nejde nič prepnúť, len preblikne aplikácia ktorú stlačím. Je to dosť otravné pri navigácií. Chcel by som skúsiť tam dať reálny android 10 ak by to pomohlo. View attachment 6070599View attachment 6070600

Loaded this last weekend and it is Android 13. I will need to test it some more, but as of now it works great. My bass speakers sound like they are hitting harder, but for now it works great and sounds great. It shows to be faster and API 33. I will double check, but this will allow the head unit to live longer with updated apps. Now, I need the recovery mode and root process.

I do not know if the 8257 can uphold the Android 14, but I will check at a later date.

Hello, I have the same android unit and since a few days it's stuck on boot. There's the "Welcome" screen then the android logo appears and it never loads up. How can I get into factory reset/recovery mode? I've tried with the reset button for 30 seconds but it doesn't do anything. Idk if it's a good idea to re-flash the unit, I would like to first try to reset it.

Greetings friends :D

I am hoping you can help me regarding AC8257 head unit.

Has anybody encountered this issue I am having with the reverse camera?

Now I am not 100% sure which exact model I have. It was advertised as a 7" Essgoo Android 13 4GB+64GB Octa core head unit.

The box and instructions were branded Podolfo Model cya. And I have since learned that it is actually a fake Android 13 OS and the unit only has a 4 core cpu.

I am hoping to install a genuine android firmware if possible and am hopnig that will fix my reverse camera issues, I dont mind downgrading all the way to android 9 if I have to.

Here are all the specs I have gathered from ther heasd units software:
[Android Head-Units] ondrcmkrtn:
hey friend this is nornal.Because back camera triggering when it takes pulse from reverse lights cable.In the park mode there is no pulse
[Android Head-Units] magick81:
Thanks for the reply but i do not think this is how its meant to be. I uiniderstand why it is happening but I assume the software would be set to ignore those quick flashes of the reverse trigger. I have never seen this behaviour on any other head unit or othe car and I am syuspecting it is the fake adroid 13 rom causing this issue.
[Android Head-Units] magick81:
I think you need to hold the reset until you see the lights on the buttons flash ansd after it flashes click the reset button again.
[Android Head-Units] CosminMarc:
I have tried, the lights never flash. The unit stays off as long as I keep the reset button pressed
[Android Head-Units] CosminMarc:
Can you guys please let me know the steps for flashing a B200 unit? Or point me somewhere where the steps are listed.
[Android Head-Units] CosminMarc:
you have to play around with the CAN version there's somewhere in settings (pin 0000 or 6666 or 1234) and you select your model, restart, until it works. You'll find your car model in different categories., try each one.

G'day All,

Does anyone have theme options on their 8257 unit?

I only have the F3 theme however the seller had multiple on theirs.

They provided a firmware and MCU update and now it's on Fake Android 13 (I believe they are all actually Android 9 for this chipset).

Still no themes.

If anyone has the themes I'm hoping I can just copy them into the file system.

EDIT: Has anyone been able to update the boot logo? Doesn't seem to be in the settings and nothing shows in images. Seems some files are missing from more recent firmware!?

Current Hardware/Software Information:

B200 - Core 8 - ROM 64gb - LPDDR4 -RAM 4GB - 1024x600 (verified with Fake Device Test).

Both channels have a video entering some kind of recovery mode by swiping on the screen. I'm posting in this thread as it's the first thing to show on Google for the 8257 unit and might help someone down the line.
[Android Head-Units] magick81:
The swiping you are seeing is when running a firmware update.

Download one of the ATCUPG firmwares from here, https://4pda.to/forum/index.php?showtopic=1078020

Put onto usb, the turn head unit on/reboot and start scratching screen immediately to flash firmware.

I would check your grabbing the compatible firmware befiore doing update. Use english to runnsian translator to ask on that site, they are very good

AWESOME APPLICATION!!!!!!

This is not working for me.When i open the application the backlight remains the same...It dosent change..I have HTC P3400i running on WM6 n i have flash 7 installed.

Can u plz make the option work...I want my backlight to be max when i open this app n when i close it....my backlight should be back to normal.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
I see what you ment, lol....

Hmmm, is it not already in the max brightess?

Can you export and send me your regkey settings in...

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
here are mine too
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Yours are:

And mine is:

But I place both values on "10", once you open the app.

Can you open it, minimize (press your red key), go to the registry and read your values again?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
I get a (10)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hanackin:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
...

I dont know how else to change it... :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fbifbi:
OK, Twolf, I installed Flash 7 on my Niki.

All works well now, both old and new version, but...

The newest version (the one with range setting) does not set the light back do default level after exiting the app.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
So it was a flash lite 3 bug, I really hope thats not the final version, it gives more problems than 2.1...

That bug I can fix, I'll check it tomorrow, and also add the ability to edit the registry name and release the final version. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fbifbi:
That's great man :) looking forward to it!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Ok, I think its working now, could someone test it?

The HEXA/DECIMAL value is no longer needed, as flash uses a (hopefully) clever method to read the value and decide if its a number (decimal) or not (hexa).

Added the RegKey name field, in case someone needs it:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fbifbi:
Dear Twolf, I'm testing it right now. Everything seems to be fine :)

Somehow I had a small problem with it after first launch, but then it started to work - I can't replicate the actions though now ;/ Unfortunately it still doesn't work on my Axim - maybe it's hardware related to some extent.

Well, I think it would be still good if someone with different name for the default brightness key name would test it.

This weekend, I'm gonna also check the app and report back, on my father's Sammy i780 with WM6.0.

Thanks again for all the revisions :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
I thought I had it this time...

Man, thats annoying. lol :D

Did you sent me the regkeys from your Axim?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nuke1:
Please, no, don't remove the Eye of Mordor. That's my favourite. I'm sure a lot if us will absolutely love it. Just give it that eerie animation, so I can cry out "aarrgggh" in pain when it looks at me. Oh, and make it say "I SEE YOU!" every minute or so. No way, you gotta keep that :p. Thank you, thank you!
