Mixed headunit - MTCD Android Head Units Q&A

Hey guys,
I have a question for you, cause I am not familiar with the woring of the headunits. I bought an Isudar headunit, but the coreboard gave up (PX30) quite soon. Now I have a Witson coreboard in it and it's working. My problem is, although the headunit is working, the wifi and the usb doesn't. What should I do to syncronize the hardware and software of the headunit. Should I stay with the Isudar MCU and install an Isudar rom to the headunit somehow? If you have any idea, please share with me!
Thanks in advance!

Perhaps read through the forums - suggest the MCU cross compatibility thread - and also figure out if it matters which Android MTCD/E ROM could be applied.

I did a firmware update back to the original stock. Unfortunately the wifi and usb still not working. Do you have any idea?

Ok, so I have some news. I did a firmware update back to the original stock rom. Wifi and usb not worked. I randomly find a rom for PX30 and I flashed it to the headunit. The usb started to work, but after a few power on it's not working again. I tried to flash another mcu but it didn't work, so now back to the original. The seller said if I can't power up the head unit's wifi with the stock firmware that's a hardware issue. What do you think?

Can someone help me how can I root the head uni? It's PX30, with GS mcu, running android 9. Unfortunately I don't have wifi and the usb recognises just pendrive. Besides I can use my sd card to copy and use files. Please let me know how to root the device with this conditions! Thanks!

E:Failed to mount... (Block device required)

Hey guys,
The patient is an Android RK3188 5.1 unit from Xtrons for a BMW. The manufacturer is "GS".
After installing basic apps the unit started to really lag, not to mention that the touchscreen stopped working. So I flashed it with a factory MTCD 5.1 KGL rom and the installation went without any problems. After that I had to flash it back to a GS ROM, so I used something I found here on XDA a while ago, namely "GS_NEW4_rk3188_5.1(20160305)".
The installation went without any problems, but the unit then stopped on the "Lollipop" logo. It doesn't go to the car logo after that, just stops dead at the Lollipop screen and that's it.
When I try entering recovery, it works like it should, but the unit blurts out a crapload of info and errors, like the ones you can see in the attached pictures.
Updates don't work anymore.
Please note: I did NOT try to update the MCU on this unit. Only the Android software.
What's the problem with this unit? How to get it back to its normal state?
Picture descriptions:
1 - how recover looks like upon entering it.
2, 3 - sorry for the blurry pictures, but it's hard to snap a good picture of the moving text. You get the idea - a thousand errors or so.
4 - when I try flashing a regular KGL rom that worked on the unit before.
Did you tried this from sd card in GPS slot?
Never had success with that, only from usb drive.
Maybe you try this and it helps...

Yes. USB doesn't work.
Test it with another usb stick.
I have the same problems with some of the USB3 32GB Sticks from Sandisk.
SanDisk SDCZ43-032G-G46 Ultra Fit 32GB USB-Flash-Laufwerk USB 3.0 ✓
SanDisk Ultra Dual USB-Flash-USB Stick 32GB USB 3.0 X
Test all USB Ports and formate the sticks fat32
Use stick as small as possible.
Same to gps card. Use 16GM max, and all works as expected. Got some problems with 32gb cards. Took too long to show covers...
So, essentially, the problem here is the SD cards or USB sticks?
I don't think that's the problem.
I know how to update headunits, and it never mattered whether I used this card, that card or that USB stick... in fact, I only use microSD cards for updates, nothing else.
What the problem is is that the update breaks the unit, rendering it impossible to use.
I need to know what is the cause of that, and how to REVERT the damage.
Please read my first post again.
looks like the internal flash memory is broken. From your pics there is a line where the recovery is trying to make a partition and fails. It might be a pain in the ass but try to get xtrons to send you another SOM board.

Thanks for your reply.
Can you, or somebody else explain how is it that the unit got screwed when installing a new ROM?
I did not touch the MCU or anything else. The unit is a RK3188 MTCD Android 5.1 one, and I used a different MTCD ROM.
It could be anything, like any flash drive/thumb drive, sometimes they just go bad. It accounts for the slowness when you originally flashed the new rom, then just gave out when you tried to flash again.
Me so nothing I can do
I have had your same issue: follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67184851&postcount=50
Sure that it's a MTCD rom and not MTCB?
When i installed malaysk rom for the first time, i have had the same issue. My hu is a kd one too.

Unfortunately I have the same issue "block device required " and I haven't found any solution over a month now.
Hope someone help you to find a solution as from my side I disappointed and my device is now decorate my room.
With the described method, you can't enter in recovery mode?!? Did you put sd card into gps slot? Sure?

@Malaysk - everything has been done to the letter, as always. I have had successes beforehand with the recovery card.
It just simply doesn't work in this case. The unit doesn't react to the card.

How do you know that it is a MTCB rom?
Same problem to me.
The HU is booting on Lollipop logo, and this is it.
I can flash MCU, but cannot flash ROM.
The device is going in Recovery Mode, but cannot flash ROM.
Also, it cannot be connected to PC, to flash it with RkBatchTool.
When i am trying this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67184851&postcount=50
the HU doesnt power on with SD card inserted.
My device was MTCD KGL. IS written on the pCB as well, and i took pictures before first flashing.
Any help is apreciated!

Eonon GA2162 Custom Rom

I have 3 Eonon HU's, a GA2114, GA2154 and a GA2162. I have flashed the Malaysk ROM on both the GA2114 and the Ga2154 and I think Malay has done an excellent job! His ROM really makes the units run well, my question is, is it possible to flash the Malaysk ROM onto the GA2162? I have searched all the posts relating to Marshmallow 6.0 head units but I can't find any way of of getting into the recovery menu to flash the file. I can access system update and I have tried loading various other Marshmallow options such as Joying and a couple of other brand names but they don't really change anything. I have very little experience with android devices it being limited just to these head units. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

"Bricked" MTCD Erisin ES3062

Hello guys.
I tried to flash the ROM of my device and now I am a bit screwed. Honestly I cannot remember what I did exactly but now I have two main problem:
- Hardware buttons LEDs do not work
- Volume knob only decreases sound no matter where you turn it to
At the moment my device is showing MTCD_GS_V21 but I am pretty sure it was not "GS" before I tried to flash it with dmcu.img and dupdate.img files at the same time.
More precisely I did the following:
I randomly downloaded two files from a topic here. I uploaded them ot a SD card and put it in the GPS slot. I went to my device > Settings > Software update and fhe device ran an update. I tried to use different ROMs after ( Malaysk and so on ) but the problems remain - no leds and volume knob does not work.
Now how can I know the correct MTCD version for my device and more important - how to flash it back propery so it can all work again?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi,
I also have an Erisin ES3062 with Android 5.1.1 which is stock. The MCU is MTCD_LM_V1.56_1 (May 10 2016 19:16:12).
I hope this can help you, although you message is rather old.

Broken bluetooth after perform a OTA

Hi guys i have a problem with the bluetooth after OTA 10.5.7 to 10.5.8 (Europe version).
My bluetooth was broken, and show "activation..." and turn automatically in loop.
The problem is that activation of bluetooth isn't possible after OTA.
Does anyone have an idea ?
Hi. I also updated to 10.5.8 my EU version. Just tested the bluetooth. No issues here with me... Sorry, not of much help
Ok I will try to port the rom to fastboot and make a clean flash (without wiping Internal Storage). Thank's for you reply.
Doesn't work, I have reinstalled OOS rom fully.
And bluetooth switch to on/off without any reason.
I have tried :
- Reinstall Rom
- Delete network data
- Stop bluetooth app clear data and cache and reboot
All doesn't work
Full flash with MSM if it does not work it's a hardware failure ?

Hi @TekCoco , I found this thread only now, but I also have the same bt "activating" loop.
It started to happen to me last October when I updated via OTA 10.5.8 to 10.5.9.
Now I updated to 10.5.10 but sadly nothing changed.
It's been months since I cannot use BT at all.
I also opened a thread at the time: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/bluetooth-not-working-after-ota-update-to-10-5-9.4183671/
How did you manage to solve that?
Thanks
