Root: Joying 5.1.1 Unit - MTCD Android Head Units General

I ended spending a fair amount of time chasing down a working root method, in the interest of saving time for anyone else who is looking I wanted to post the steps I took.
1.) Settings > Factory Settings > Enter Password: *#hct#root#
2.) Install Kingo Root: https://root-apk.kingoapp.com/kingoroot-download.htm
3.) Install SuperSU
3.) Install SuperSU Me: https://sites.google.com/site/androidxdacom/file/supersu-me-v6.7.apk?attredirects=0
Device will reboot, you'll want to update the SSU binary, and you'll be good to go.

Thank You for this info, it worked for me :good:

This works on every joying 5.1 unit?
How do you like the Joying brand?

Worked on mine. Thanks man

I have the double din 7 inch in my wrx, finding a proper trim kit that fit around the unit for me was tricky.. as they are a few mm bigger side to side and up an down that standard double dins. But was able to finally find one that was seamless for the wrx. Personally love mine. The pioneers and alpine are getting better but still think my joying is superior.. that's just my opinions.

Just wanted to confirm for anyone interested that this process is still valid for the latest Joying build (6/12).

I've got an MTCD in the mail and am trying to figure out the best way to take control over it.
That part about "kingo root" is scary as all hell. Who knows what its doing! And despite replacing it later on with "supersu" (which is not much less frightening, since it too is closed source), that is no guarantee that you are removing all remnants of it.
I suggest that this is not a good process to follow.
From what I understand, the recovery on these devices does NOT enforce signed updates. That means that the proper way to install something like this, is to inject it directly into an update. Just skip the exploit step altogether.
/////CANCEL QUESTION: One question I have though; what does the factory settings password actually do?//////
Answer: This turns on root. The silly things comes WITH ROOT ALREADY AVAILABLE!
Its actually better to NOT install any kind of root (kingoroot or supersu), since its already there, just blocked from the android side. This is more secure than leaving the device open to potential exploit, and gives you an avenue to go in and mess with things.

I
I am attempting this method and followed your instructions. I got a message that said adb root and I installed king root and my device rebooted. Super SU says my device is not rooted and Super-Sume gets stuck at "Preparing environment please wait..."
Can I get help?

Anyone know if it is possible to install TWRP? Anyone tried?

Well mine worked fine, then supersu app disappeared and reboot, now I'm stuck with bootloop and can't get into recovery!! Help! RK3188 800*480 MTCD.

Hi guys, I was able to fix my HU which was completely munted by following this thread.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...lopment/rom-malaysk-roms-mtcd-device-t3385309
I used the SD tool to create a boot card, then got the error which is shown in the thread then followed the next page which tells you to use the SD card and a USB thumb drive with the update file on it.
When the error shows up you eject the SD card and the system goes to recovery. Use the install from USB and clear all function and it does its thing.
The joying screen showed up for some time (about 5-10mins) but after booted to system and I'm in business again.
Don't follow my instructions here this is just a brief explanation of what I did, use the link above and try all steps and follow carefully.
Attached photo of the error screen I had in recovery FYI.
Please note this was after I used root method of factory settings code, king root and super su and I did have root access/ the binaries updated etc etc, so don't be scared to try as you can recover your system.
Also the firmware I used was the latest 5.1.1 from Joying website.
My unit is: RK3188 (800*480) MTCD which shipped in December 2016 with android 5.1.1.

An FYI,
I just got an Eonon GA 2155 w/ Android 5.1.1.
I tried other rooting methods without any success.
I used Kingoroot and it worked great. Compared to my Galaxy phones, a pie of cake.
Thanks to the OP

I don't see a factory settings menu! Did they hide it or are my glasses in need of an upgrade.

They moved it to car settings and removed the ability to root through factory settings. (password for factory settings is 3368) there is no * or # button. Can someone please find a work around?!?!

I have one of these units coming, I would like to know as well how to root it since it's apparently disabled.

Anyone ? No more possibilities to root now ?

i tried hooking up an USB keyboard to be able to type in the missing characters, but no success.

Rockchip RK3168 and RK3188 Root Method Working!

Bought a Certified 7" MID-73005 tablet with an RK3168 chip inside.
I could not find a root method... I couldnt even find the right USB drivers.
Found the method for the RK3188, which is the quad core variant of the 3168.
Tried it, and it works perfectly! Rooted baby!

Just thought others might like to know, seeing as these chips are still fairly new and not much out on them yet.

That has the same processor as the tablet I rooted. You use the root program that was linked to in this thread? Did your tablet reboot 3 times?

When you ran the root script on your PC did those come up as 0/root? If so you should have pressed the space bar to continue. That would have been the first reboot if I remember correctly. Then it does a second script with same as far as uid=0(root) gid=0(root) then continue by pressing space bar...2nd reboot. Then 3rd script same as above uid...gid, space bar, 3rd reboot...then you should be rooted. Make sure tablet is on and USB debugging is checked before you start and you have the device driver installed.
Basically it is asking you if you see uid=0(root) gid=0(root) after it runs each script. If so continue.

Which root file did you download? Was it the TPsparky.rar file?
https://www.dropbox.com/s/mhue9su5ir2a21v/TPSarky-Root.rar
Just extract files and run the TPSparky.bat file as Administrator on PC.
This is the one I used and it worked first time!
Cube U9gtV - RK3188 Quad Core
Thanks. It worked perfectly for my Cube.
I only saw "uid=0(root) gid=0(root)" before the last reboot. I almost didn't realize it was there. I believe it was in the line just above the question about it being there. The first 2 reboots just told me wait until the OS loaded then press any key (spacebar) to reboot. After the last reboot, I ran an app Root Checker and it worked. Thanks again.
thanks! working on AWC 3188
works
Just tried this method on the yarvik noble mini tab07-485 and it works thank you very much.
Now I just need a cool rom.
Any ideas let me know.
Thanks.
Have tried this on CHUWI v17HD seems to work , get id 0 etc and superuser is installed however when I use supersu I get the message "The is no SU binary and SuperSU cannot install it - any solutions?

[GUIDE] Flashing Remix OS on Teclast X16 Plus

A fellow member asked for instruction to getting Remix OS installed on Teclast X16 Plus, thus a simple write up below:
1) Download the necessary drivers - https://www.mediafire.com/?p723or9hxip5eu8
2) Download the Remix OS ROM (latest version from Teclast page B2016062701) - http://www.mediafire.com/download/84723txtl4gklzu/B2016062701.rar
3) Install the drivers in this exact sequence below
- iSocUSB-Driver-Setup-1.2.0.exe
- IntelAndroidDrvSetup1.10.0.zip
- PhoneFlashToolLite_5.5.2.0_win32.exe
When you reached the PhoneFlashToolLite installation, you will be prompted to override some of the earlier drivers installed, it is fine to override and proceed
4) Run "Phone Flash Tool LIte" , click "Browse”, go to the folder where you have downloaded and uncompressed the Remix OS ROM, choose "flash.json" and click ok

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
5) Shutdown your X16 Plus from within Android, after which press simultaneously "vol up + vol down + power" buttons, release them when you see the words "DNX FASTBOOT MODE" on the screen
6) Connect your X16 Plus to your PC / laptop, if doing it for the first time, wait for the devices to be detected properly and drivers installed, by the end of which you should see on "Phone Flash Tool" a connected status and "Start to Flash" box turning blue.
7) When the flash is successful, the progress bar will turn green and shows 100%, the tablet will be disconnected automatically as it reboots, you can unplug the cable and let it boot up. The whole flashing takes about 2mins 45secs for me.
My views on the pros and cons of Remix OS:
- real easy multi windows tasking
- very solid battery life during standby
- UI is fluid and responsive
- yet to encounter an app that is incompatible and apps run well
- if a mouse is connected, right clicking will bring up functions similar to that of windows and mac os
- still a work in progress as some settings that is considered basic are not available, like "Battery"
- does not support widgets
Thank you very much.
in process,thank you for the howto. Only one thing,the intel android driver you provide,is blocked by my windows 10. He talk about an untrusted origin...downloaded from intel´s webpage.

Hi. A new x16 power owner here. Any update on root?
Is there any chance this would work for the X16 Pro?
Hi. I tried to install this but can't seemed to install well. Just saw the remix os logo and then it got shut down. And I lost my windows os on the dual boot session at the beginning.
Anyone knows how do I get my windows os back and got this remix working too?

Hi Potatohead,
I just want to understand well (cause I'm able to root phones or tablets, but only with a detailled methode from guys like you ^^):
Is it a multi-languages rom ?
It it a rooted rom ?
Is it a dual boot Windows/Android or only windows or only Android ?
Is it "attractive" for a basic use (I mean, for my girlfriend ^^)
Thanks a lot !
Rino (from France aka the no go zone !)
Manage to get windows reinstalled. Wonder why remix is not available for x16 power though. Will be great if able to.

It's halfway working and there's a couple other threads about installing it. Several different versions of that model make it more complicated. You may need to swap in a different gpt.bin to make it flash if it's a c2e3 model. Camera, rotation, and sound wouldn't work for me. YMMV
Hello,
Installed in my Teclast X16 Plus and for now very happy because it is very fluid.
This Rom does not have root access, right? Does anyone know how to root this version?

Hi JuanSan10
I received my X16 Plus 2 days ago and started to hack around. I managed to get a working TWRP and flash SuperSU from there if you're interested in gaining root privileges on it.
I would be happy to create a post to share it in the developers section but XDA rules doesn't allow me to post there before I posted 10 messages in general section (too bad for this time, though I understand the rule)
Would you be interested by my TWRP for the X16 Plus in order to be able to flash superSU through it ?

I registered on XDA exactly to do that,create the tutorial and provide the recovery. Unfortunately I discovered the "5 to10 messages before to post in developers section" XDA rule after my registration ?
It looks like I can post yet though, so I'll create the tutorial and host the TWRP image soon enough.

(?) Joying/Pumpkin 5.1.1 Android Headunit Netflix Problem

I am trying to find a good head unit for my Scion TC 05, and an android tablet/headunit is perfect for its radio hatch.
I have recently purchased several android head units. The first being a Pyle 480x800 DVD + android headunit, model PLDNAND692. It ran 4.4.4 KitKat, but the screen resolution was too low, dpi made interface look terrible, and DVD drive was not needed. Netflix played fine though. It runs a RK3066, yet a quad core configuration.
I returned the Pyle due to the old software, low res screen, and overall buggyness with DVD drive.
Recently purchased both a Pumpkin and a Joying Headunit from amazon, and both have no problems with Hulu, Youtube, and other streaming video services, but when trying to view Netflix on either, I am met with a Error code 0013. I have tried all possible fixes, including clearing data, uninstall/reinstall, installing an older build, and a factory reset. Please help.
1) go to system->apps
2) force stop
3) clear data and clear cache
4) uninstall
5) reinstall

Emailed with joying, and they confirmed that Netflix has a problem with mtcd units with lollipop. I just bought the kit kat version of the radio instead. Much smoother UX, and doesn't have the memory leak problem lollipop is known for. Lollipop looks better, granted, but their kit Kat models are more fleshed out. And way easier to root.

Don't even need to root. Just flash a compatible 4.4. ROM.

I like Booroondook's ROM because it's very close to stock.
If you fancy flashy graphics, get Malaysk's ROM from this thread
Both are rooted, have FUSE, Xposed framework and allow for lots of customizations.

Make sure you have a MTCB or MTCC unit.
Joying also produces MTCD units and those are not compatible. Actually they say: If you have Malaysk don't try to upgrade to 5.1 using our ROM image, that is for MTCD units and will not work on yours.
If you do have a MTCD unit check the dedicated section.

Thanks, looks like I'll be busy over the weekend then!
So instead of following advise I decided to attempt to root my device with the thinking that I may be able to take a nandroid backup before tinkering with custom firmware. Anyway I followed another thread directions for rooting my particular device using the *#... code through settings factory reset and then kingroot, SuperSU etc etc.
IT WORKED!
I then for no reason opened the kingroot app again and it started its process again by me possibly clicking something and the device rebooted and got stuck on Joying screen bootloop, I couldn't even get back into recovery...for some time.
I know this is way off topic as this is more related to root than this threads topic but there seems to be limited threads on these devices and I thought by chance someone might be able to help.
I have been able to boot to recovery several times and factory reset, install stock firmware, update firmware etc but all seem to install then get stuck on lollipop screen.
Please see attached photo, this is where I'm at.
I'm sure, given that I can boot to recovery I should be able to fix this issue eventually with the right firmware files but I am more curious about the file structures when you download a firmware package.
Some downloads just have .img file and some have two files dupdate.img and dmcu.img.
Can someone explain what these files are and why some downloads only have dupdate.img.
Also if someone has a solution for my issue or a link to another thread that could help please let me know or I guess I'll keep flashing firmware packages until something happens.
Happy new year!

I was able to fix my HU with Malaysk method after I had rooted the device and rendered it officially bricked!

Unlock Bootloader procedure question

So, I decided to apply to unlock my bootloader. I started following this guide.
I created a Mi account, but I was not greeted by a form to write the reason I wanted to unlock the bootloader.
A little baffled there, but I decided to proceed (maybe the form was in the app). I proceeded to the unlock page and voila! I had the link to download the Flash Tool. And so I did, I ran the miflash_unlock.exe and filled in my account and password.
Next I plugged in my phone in fastboot mode, as it was needed (I had not enable OEM Unlock in Developer Options nor had I associated my device with my account), and I was greeted with this image:

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
What am I doing wrong? The Unlock button is active (meaning I can click it), but I don't want to brick my phone a couple of days after I bought it.
My device (just in case):
Android Version : 8.1.0 OPM1.171019.011
MIUI Version : MIUI Global 9.5 | Stable 9.5.13.0(OEIMIFA)
Baseband Version : 660_GEN_PACK-1.147555.0.150932.1
Kernel Version : 4.4.78-perf+
Android Security Patch Level : 2018-05-01
You're not doing anything wrong. Now you don't need to apply for permission. Instead go ahead and start Unlocking process. You will be promoted with a message saying that you need to wait for some amount of time (72, 360 or even 720 hours) depending on your model.
Bind your Mi account with your device first.
Go to settings > additional settings > developer options > here you'll find the option to bond your Mi account with your device.
Edit: don't update MIUI as you have arb-3

Thank you for your reply, it was clarifying! On the guide, it says I have to use a VPN to access the Chinese servers, is it really necessary? (just a question, it is not an issue!)
Hi,
My query is kind of different.
I want to hide unlocked bootloader from a few apps. ( Blackberry Work email app).
Any information on this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I tried connecting to a bunch of Chinese server using VPN (as seen on some youtube videos) but I guess that method is now patched. I guess, it's only applicable on phones with Chinese ROMs within China.
You have to wait. While find some good ROMs and stuff. All the best.

Some apps requires Safetynet to be passed in order to use them, i.e. Banking apps. Unlocked bootloader, rooted phone can trigger this safetynet to fail. You can use magisk to hide the fact that your phone is unlocked.

Thanks for the revert,
however I have already tried Magisk hide and safetynet module but it's not working for me. I am using Redmi note 5 pro with Android 9.0 Pie based Pixel Experience Custom ROM. I am very happy with the ROM except that I am not able to use Blackberry Work app. Other banking apps are working fine.
Yesterday I decided to update to MIUI, I'll see what happens with ARB when I get to it, and I must say I am impressed! @preetam.id I believe it has to do with Blackberry Servers, not Magisk Hide feature, though I haven't used it for a couple of years now and don't what changes RIM has introduced.

Since you updated you can no longer go back to the stock ROM your device came with. You do realize this right? What you will have to do from here is stay on ARB4 and unlock your device from here.
Did you proceed with the unlocking for your device? I too just got my device yesterday and do not want to risk bricking. I don't see an option for bonding the account to the device in developer options.

System Status Bar HELP PX5 Android 10 Xtrons IB90MTVL

I know this is not an MTCD it's an MTCE cant find a section for it I have looked and tried it all and can't find anything. Having an issue with hiding the system status bar, no option in any of the settings menu or system menu. The system is not rooted so using most apps to enable immersive mode is non-functional, they also have apps that require no root but the keyboard won't work or it only hides the system status bar for the home screen, and not all the apps also I have no idea how to adb into the head unit. Wanted to see if anyone here had any clue on a fix or have had the dame issues and has a workaround. Thank you in advance.

Its an MTCD/E... no issue there.
Okay sweet... Hopefully I can get that question answered.
I've hidden mine with terminal commands before to success but I think it requires the su command (root) in terminal.
Try searching "Immersive" in the Play Store (or alternative). There are some on there that I think work without root.

settings put global policy_control immersive.full=*

Not sure. On my Eonon GA2170 (running Hal9K v4) it would stay after reboot, but on my Xtrons TQ709IPL (running HCT7 w/ Magisk root) it would reset sometimes.
If it doesn't stay, then you can probably get it to run the command on boot up by adding a script. I haven't tried this, though.

You can look here. As far as my devices go, the firmware seems to be interchangeable as long as it's the correct processor (i.e. PX5, PX6, PX30). MCU and recovery (if you have Android 10, you should used 10 rom, Android 9 should use 9 rom, etc) are the only head unit only aspects.

Thank you. I was able to sort out the installing a ROM and rooting. My issue is that when I run the command to hide the status bar it does not stick. usually, after I turn the car off and turn it back on I would have to re-enter the command again.

I see. Mine has been seemingly sticking to the command. I used it again lately and it restarted multiple times (due to a short in the wiring), but it retained the immersive notification bar. I would try to use a script on boot for it.

I've switched to a new ROM Malaysk android 10. If you have the same radio I would switch to that from https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...k-rom-for-px5-rk3368-with-android-10.4175209/
