Win CE 2 Din DVD/GPS Head Unit Reset - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

My Win CE head unit recently stopped recognizing all discs, USB devices, and SD cards. The radio, Bluetooth, and GPS all work perfectly though. I have spent the last few days reading through posts here about resetting or updating the device, however, the solutions I’ve found are all outdated.
If someone could provide a little insight into how I might be able to resolve the issues, I would greatly appreciated the help.
Brand: Possibly Eincar (Not sure though)
APP: T1C6B1_5.16_16303.01_16_T1
OS: C2C9-N1.14-20141216-T1-YHD
MCU: T1C6B1_151230_7786DZ
Also, the date and time now randomly resets to Midnight, January 6th, 2001. I am not sure if this related.

Upgrade phone > TomTom license?

I want to upgrade my XDA2 to a IIs but I don't know whether TomTom will let me do this without buying another copy of the TT software. Has anyone done this before? Would I have to send all my TT CDs back to TT to get them swapped for new, unregistered ones?
As far as I know, my copy of TT (and all the maps I've bought) is registered to my specific XDA2 so it couldn't be re-installed on any new machine that I bought.
Thanks in advance.
PS. What would happen if I lost this XDA2 and got a replacement? Same situation, I guess.
For TomTom 3, you can install to a second alternative device after 7 days has passed from initial install and then a 3rd after 6 months.
So if you have only ever installed to the one device and 7 days has passed you won't have any problem.
You can of course re-install to the same hardware as many times as you wish without affecting the install count.
If you had your hardware stolen or replaced under warranty then TomTom will re-issue a new key if you can provide documentary proof that the hardware was replaced etc.
Having said all that, CeBit starts next week and there 'may' be some news on the TomTom front Registered owners of current versions may want to watch our site for news from Mar 10th.
Thanks for your reply, Darren. I bought TT3 itself from PCWorld so that's no problem. The additional European maps my Dad gave me - he bought them off some dodgy geezer on eBay. All original but seal broken. I guess this geezer will have installed them at least once, knowing that 7 days later I'd be able to install them on another machine and all would be happy. :scratchchin: Let's hope he doesn't install them on another machine in 6 months' time. Best I upgrade my phone nice and quickly! My wife will be pleased... NOT! :roll: :lol:
It is because of tomtom and their stringent rules that keygens have been created to overcome this problem, why should you be restricted to one or two changes of phone/pda once you have bought the software? I have a genuine copy of tomtom but I use a keygen to get new codes each time I change phones/pda's, otherwise I wouldnt be able to use legitimate software as I need and it saves me having to go through the process of contacting tomtom and being told I cant have another code for 6 months.
Changing units
Hi guys,
I've just done over 8 weeks in 19 countries without my TT BT Nav3 & TT traffic because O2 replaced my unit (because it wouldn't work with TT) unfortunately they classed it as stolen :?: & gave it a new ID, (in any case I have since read in forums that the problem was caused by Chinese made 1gb SD cards :evil: which won't run with TT and freeze everything!)
Decided to wait until I got home, upgraded to an XDA IIi, but, I've tried several uninstall & re-installs but each time it says 'You have not downloaded voice files, so your TT will not work properly'
I now have FOUR 1gb SD cards (bought from aria.com) which seem ok for anything else but no good with TT, Ye Gods!!!!
After problem after problem with TomTom I hope they sort all this out with TT 5!
Who knows, maybe they'll even manage their maps down from the extremely annoying 9 unmarked disks, OOPS! there goes another pig flying over :wink:

Pumpkin PX5 intermittent bluetooth issue

I have had a Pumpkin PX5 (newest version) in my truck for about 2 months now. Every two weeks the factory bluetooth app will not play sound. I have emailed pumpkin support but they can barely speak english. They gave me a new ROM to flash onto the unit which did nothing so I had to factory reset the unit and lost all my installed apps, etc to get it to work again. It now happens every 2 weeks and lately even a hard factory reset doesn't fix the issue. I was thinking maybe I'll root it but I can't be bothered. It does this issue when any phone is used, not just mine. It shows the song played on the phone but no sound comes out regardless of the volume settings
I am at my wits end with this thing and am tempted to spend the dough on a kenwood or pioneer unit because this is getting ridiculous. I have asked pumpkin if I can return it because it is practically in brand new condition. Their communication is horrible due to the language barrier and like I said nothing is working at this point. I just want to listen to some darn music!
If someone wants to buy a brand new pumpkin and pay for shipping for a great price shoot me a PM
thanks for any and all help

Eonon GA6153F *BRICKED* (No recovery) Please help!

*Unable to post on software development due to limited posts*
Hi all, hope your well
My Eonon Ga6153f has been slow since I first got it.
Eonon have sent me numerous update files throughout my warranty period and there after but still no speed improvement
I decided to install a custom 'Malaysk' 5.1 firmware 1024x800 RK3188, this was whilst the car engine was off, it failed multiple times and I found out that the system was looking for a 'dupdate.img' not 'update.img'
So I renamed the file and it was going well however my car battery died during the installation and the head unit just cut off. I believe the head unit is now hard bricked.
All i get now is a black screen. I've tried booting into recovery as advised by eonon by holding reset and power etc.. But no luck. The dvd ejects and the head unit lights do come on when letting go of reset for 1 second but that's it.
I've tried using sd tool to load the stock eonon firmware on it but no luck. I've also had the img file on USB aswell but still nothing when switching the unit on
I've also tried rockchip batch tool by connecting head unit to the computer but rockchip cannot find the device? (Windows 10)
Am I doing something wrong? Any solutions?
I've spoke to eonon and they can't do nothing as I'm out of my warranty period and they are only willing to offer 10% off a brand new unit which still would cost me £280 which I reallly do not want to spending again
I've been driving without a stereo for 2 months now! Boring journeys everyday. Hope someone can help!
(P.s i am based in London, UK if anyone would like to come help me out)
Anyone???

Hizpo Head unit with inverted screen. Newbie needing help.

Hello everyone. I’ve got a hizpo Head unit with an inverted screen that I can’t figure out. Funny thing yesterday I plugged the radio in and the screen was good and 30 minutes later I was watching it when it did it but it went inverted again. Does anyone have an answer to this on these forums? Can I update to the latest version of software and firmware and it fix the problem? Where would I find the upgrade? Can windows ce be installed on this Head unit? It’s running Android 7.1.2 right now. The cpu is arm cortex [email protected] 1.6 ghz (X4) the mcu from what I could make of it being inverted is MTCD_XRC_V2.58_1 jul 31 2017 17:35:55. The model on the Head unit itself is AD717009. Any help would be greatly appreciated this thing is driving me nuts.
I think you are on right track when you say mcu. I would contact the seller first and explain issue and they might send you mcu. I had similar issues but not the same with mine.

MTCD 2GB 7.1.2 upgraded to MTCD 4GB 10.0 root/firmware

Hello there. I have upgraded the board from my Eonon KBT navigation from 4c/2gb/7.1.2 to 8c/4gb/android 10.
How can i root it, or if its an alternative software from malasyk/hal9k that can i use?
I kept searching, but i only found alternatives for Android 9.
Which board did you end up with for your upgrade? I also have an old Eonon unit (GA8166A for BMW X5 E53). I believe it is a PX3 board - MTCD KBT 2.61.
Hey. I bought this one : https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32814725689.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dUrIXPN
Ordered via DHL (extra pay), but asked the seller to put a price tag of 10$, because DHL wouldn't take any commissions for under 10$ final price ).
It was plug and play with 2 day transport from China to Romania.
Nice - thanks for the super quick reply. I understand I need to flash the MTCD to MTCE with the correct KBT firmware before installing the new px5 board.
Did you manage to find an up to date version of the MTCE KBT firmware? Once again thank you - I really appreciate your input.
Nope, i didn't installed other MCU.
I did try a HA 3.41 version, but screwed my navi completely, even if i tried to make everything again in factory settings.
I did leave my default MCU (that came with the navi, KBT 2.61), and worked flawlessly.
I did saw your post now, about the Bluetooth problem. I have EXACTLY the same problem since i got it, and only in the cold weather. So, i guess its something about Eonon afterall.
I actually got tired of the bluetooth connection and i didn't conected it anymore to my phone.
Thanks - and no BT/WiFi issues? The reason I want to change the board is intermittent BT/WiFi.
Refresh this thread, i edited my last post )
So, the board will not save the BT issue.
Actually, i regret buying this px5 board because i think i would have been better with another navi.
Don't get me wrong, its a big difference from PX3 to PX5, but it would have been a bigger one to PX6 )
I saw some variants from XTRONS and JOYING, decent price, but with PX5 also. I want to get a PX6 if possible, to make it even faster.
Interesting. In my case it seems to be temperature related. Below 10 degrees or so the BT will not work. Eonon suggested to enter factory settings and set the BT to WQ_BC8. Did not work.
But when the unit is warm after driving for 10 min or so it seems to work. That is if I set BT to WQ_BC8 and then restarting the unit. After parking the car overnight the problem is back. All the paired devices are gone and the unit does not show up when searching for BT devices.
Maybe a different BT module (i.e USB) would solve the problem. WiFi works all the time.
Yep, wifi works without fuss.
BT, exactly your problem. Devices gone, no pin, no name, unsearchable.
Probably a different module to integrate on the motherboard, but i don't think its that easy to switch, i have no ideea. I will search!
