RK3188 Android 7'' Universal

I'm looking to purchase a head unit that I can root and play with. I'm familiar with android and rooting on my phone Pixel XL. I'm just not exactly sure what model to purchase to get started? Is this a good model to purchase that I can root and use roms for? If not do you guys have a preference of head units?

Adding Mirror Link

Is there a way to add mirrorlink to a none-mirrorlink supported device? I have a Pixel XL and had a Nexus 6P before and had a Nexus 5 before, and none of these devices are mirrorlink enabled, is there a way to make them support mirrorlink so I can get them to work in my car?
I'm very interested in getting to know this as well.
Me too.
I don't thimk it can be done. It has something to do with the hardware.
None of the technical info available suggest a hardware based solution.
I have found there is a Pionner app -Pioneer makes the HU for Toyota Aygo and its derivates Citroen C1 and Peugeot 108- that allows using iPhone 4S with the HU, as documented here:

Interesting thing is, this doesn't seem to be Mirrorlink per se, so there are chances that at least Pioneer based Mirrorlink HU can be made to connect to smartphones by other methods.
Hi,
I am looking for skilled developer who could add MirrorLink feature to Lenovo P2 (custom ROM).
According to VW site there are some Lenovo compatible phones with car infotainment, but not P2.
Simply I want this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNlIbFHI6oM
I can donate and pay extra money if you can do that - PM me.

Upgrade RK3188 1GB (Alfa Romeo 159) to 4GB

Hello everyone,
about a year ago I installed an RK3188 car radio in my Alfa Romeo 159.
From day one the performance of the radio was very bad. Especially when I just started the car.
Recently I learned there are upgrades available. Would this work on my device?
Current Radio:
From aliexpress:
Quad Core Android 5.1.1 Car DVD GPS for Alfa Romeo 159 Sportwagon Spider Brera with Mirror-link BT Wifi Radio
RS-6007C1
MTCD_KGL_V1.92a_5
Oct 13 2016 10:49:02
Android: 5.1.1
Upgrade:
From aliexpress:
WITSON Octa-Core +4GB RAM +32GB Flash PX5 Coreboard For Android DVD (Android 5.1 A5XXX upgrade to Android 6.0 B5XXX directly
Thanks!
Hello geertjan88,
I have upgraded last week my alfa 159 android HU (MTCDE KGL MCU firmware 2.47 and Android 5.1.1) to Witson PX5 4Gb + 32Gb Android 6.0.1.
The result is nice! New board much faster.
Attention for radio. On antenna input no phantom supply for antenna amplifier (in PX3 5.1.1. neither).
Have good project!
Hello Geertjan,
Did you already upgrade your alfa 159 HU? If so, did you experience any issues? Or was it more or less plug and play. I have the same unit (1gb android 5.1.1) which is really slow. A new unit with android 8.0 one will cost approx. 300€

Yes I have.
The screws from the px-5 board do not align correctly with the unit. So it was some fiddling to get it fit correctly. There is some tension on the px-5 board but it is working as it should.
Improvements:
Bootup time is shortened drastically
Device is immediately ready to use
Device feels really snappy and fast
Multiple apps running at the same time, no issue at all
Steering wheel buttons now work!! (didn't work before)
Problems:
WiFi does not always auto connect, have to go into settings and connect from there.
All and all, best 100 dollar i've spend in years.
Thanks (bedankt ) !

Dasaita máx 6 px6 / Xtrons TR779L px5 / Erisin ES6210U px6

Hi. I am looking for an Android radio, and after looking at several models and reading the forum, I have reached these 3 as the main candidates. Basically I'm going to use it with GPS tomtom and Google maps, music, hands-free on my mobile, and 2-3 camping apps. It will be installed in a motor home.
I don't know which model to choose. From the dasaita I have read that it has a noise problem and something else, although it is not if it happens to all the units or it is a specific problem. From the xtrons I have also read something on the forum and it seems to be working fine, and from the erisin I have not found any information about it.
Cost is the same, around € 200, and dasaita is my favorite because it has a better cpu and more ram than the xtrons, and because of the erisin there are no references. But in the end what matters to me is that it works well and has no problem. Which of the 3 would you buy? Is there any other model or brand over € 200 recommended?
Dasaita solved the noise....the noise issue was related to preamp brand cars. If your car does not have amplifier sure younwill not have the noise (i have a dasaita px6 on mazda cx5 - no bose) and it works very well.
Similar hardware between brands...same architecture....but different support. In my opinion support (both official and unofficial [xda forums] ) is better on dasaita units.

Thanks for the reply. My vehicle does not have an amplifier, so I suppose it would be fine. Apart from this problem, is there something else going wrong?
How did they solve the noise problem ? Is it still there for cars that have JBL or Bose audio systems ?
Hi. I have seen that dasaita have 2 same models, with the same cpu (px6) and the same characteristics, but with different buttons. The only difference I have seen is the model name. One is Ha2100-Max6 and the other is HA2153-max6. Anyone knows What's the difference between one and other? The HA2100 model is around 50€ cheaper.
HA2100
HA2153
I have receive a message from dasaita.
dear,
thanks for your message .
the difference is the front panel , HA2153 -MAX6 have button , and HA2100-MAX6 is full touch screen

Hardware Question

Does anybody know where to buy MTCD/E motherboards? I need one that accepts the PX6 RK3399 Chipset, and has WIFI and BT onboard.
