Help with updating head unit - MTCD Android Head Units General

Hi,
Iv tried to learn as much as I can off the forum before posting but I am still unsure on how to proceed updating/upgrading my headunit as it is running very slow,
Here is the info
MTCD_GS_V2.38_1
Mar 14 2017
Android version 5.1.1
kernel version
3.0.101+
[email protected] #119
Build number
rk3188-userdebug 22022017.10:51:05
Model
A-Media AUTO (1024x600w)
CPU ARM cortex-A9 @1,6ghz (x4)
Memory 1024
Can anyone point me the way in what I can do/need to do to update it and get better performance? My unit is made for the mercedes CLS, would this effect anything, can I also upgrade from Lollipop for an updated user interface?
Many thanks, Alex

The problem is that is just 1gb ram. You can upgrade your som to a px5 for better performance....

thank you I will look more into the new board, will I run into problems with the bluetooth and wifi? I have seen a few mentions of this.
In the meantime can i update the MCU and maybe a lighter ROM to help speed things up? Im unsure of which to look for to do this
Thanks, Alex

Read the first posts of that thread I linked to understand how to upgrade and follow the recommendations for 1gb ram devices
For the mcu update....
Navigate to dmcu folder and your manufacturer GS

[Q] LagFix aplication for trim suport

Hello guys
It is my first post so excuse my bad english.
I want to ask you if somewone used this aplication for trim suport.
In the aplication review sead that if the phone model is not compatible can brick the phone.
So is Ascend P6 compatible with this aplication or not?
On the other hand what type o memory module is used as system memory?
Thanks in advance for the answers.

Thank you for the answer.
The other important question is: ascend p6 comes with eMMC technology or flash, for the system memory?
If we have eMMC (and we should have because it wase released in the second half of 2013) the Trim suport in kernel should be a must have; i think.
Thank you in advance for your answers.

Samsung KMVUS000LM-B304 252 chip is used for memory I believe, but I can't find any information of it being either eMMC or flash. I attatched a picture which has the word "Flash" in it, so it may actually be a flash memory. Nonetheless TRIM support came with 4.3, P6 launched with 4.2.2, and altough we have a 4.4.2 beta, the changes in the kernel have been very minimal. Unless they build a new kernel from scratch (which I doubt highly), the TRIM support wont be there. I also believe the K3V2oem1 kernel wont be updated much, so we have to rely on the K3V2+ kernel source, with some modifications, if it gets released and updated to a newer linux kernel version.

Hello and thank you again for the answers.
For what i can see in the picture the one in the middle is the memory card. It says SAMSUNG that means that it is a quality chip because for what i now samsung fabrics he's one memory chips. I will dig more hopping to gather more informations.
The main question remains: Has anyone used the softwere LAGFIX with ascend P6 without any problems?
I found this, maybe you can make more sense of it.
i found more about the chipset:

This seems interesting, it could aswell be an eMMC since it has ram inside the chip.
But something is wrong with the kernel of P6. Try Androbench and try taking the Micro test in there. I got only 20mb/s!!! (G2 and other devices get well over 110mb/s, hell, even the Galaxy S2 gets more than 2x faster rates!).
Highly possible that the chip needs TRIM, but unfortunately we have no way to enable it yet.

For what i read a eMMc can be trim in 2 ways
First with a build in system suport like JB 4.3 or KK
Second with a build app like LAGFIX manually.
I want to try thos app but i can brick the phone. I am in mutch doubt.
I am confused about there policy because what are whe traing to understend is normal for a bettter performance and a musthave of a healty system beased on this type of memory for storage.
Sorry again for the gramatical mistakes.
I found a clasification table on samsung website and the chip is in thr lower class 100 suitable for poor quality smartphones with dual core.
Maybe here is the reason for the poor performance despite the quad ore and 2gb off RAM.
If you have time please do a search on samsung website for the cip. It is a pdf presentation but it is large and i cant uploded.
specifications of the KMVUS000LM memory chip.
I found some specifications (marked with red). If we have some other chip specifications like S3 or nexus 4 (phone close to performance too ourse) then we can figure out if it is poor performane chip or it is a bad made kernel.
Hope that someone can figure it out.
I runned the LAGFIX aplication afterall. Unfortunelly doesn't work on our device, because of bad kernel suport or hardwere. I runned also ANDROBENCH: and got a sequential read/write 26.9Mb/s / 6.38Mb/s. VEEEEEEEEEEEERY LOW compared with other devices.
I AM VERY DISSAPOINTED ABOUT HUAWEI. Very good specs on paper but dissaponting components/kernel support in reality.
When HUAWEI will release the source code you will be able to try any custom kernel, I'm sure someone will make one, there are a few already, but not so good due to HUAWEI's restriction.

Do you think it is a kernel issue or a slow performance memory card?

I also think that this is a kernel issue, appearantly their kernel includes tons of useless parts and tons of parts that dont work well.
But I dont think that a new kernel would make it much faster probably like ~50mb/s

Thank you for your asnwer,
I put a question in OMNIROM treath but no one answered. The question is: Has Omnirom (because in kitkat based) the suport of TRIM?
I asked you because i saw you use omnirom.
And another qiuestion: From what i saw huawei released the kernel source for B111. If it is such a bad kernel why did no one develope it?

It does not as I said before. We dont have the KitKat kernel source code yet.

surdu made a green kernel. We dont have any skilled kernel devs here + driver sourcecodes are still not released and probably wont be, without driver sourcecode, kernel version can't be updated and we will have to sit on 3.0.8 till the end, sadly.

Help! Indentify my unit no recovery?

I bought a "Joying" lookalike unit on Aliexpress
The problem is now it has no recovery so can't change software
if i press power button and res then it boots in like a "red line bar with start update in right corner" but it does nothing with the update.img
in android when i try to flash a recovery like TRWP it tells me there is "NO recovery partition"
can someone help me out?
some pic of unit klik HERE
This does not look like a MTCB headunit - it does not have one of the CPU's or MCU's that these MTCB (formally known as HuiFei) units have. I don't think you will be able to use any of the ROM's in these forums.
it has a RK3188 cpu like other units..
Doesn't matter what cpu it has. If it's not an MTCB unit then these ROMs won't work.
Try googling the MCU type for help

it's a unit based on http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=707069
see this thread on XDA
Allwinner R16 Cortex A9 Quad Core 1.6GHz
The firmware there works on the unit.
Now running the Navi IQ firmware and thats way better.

Wear OS 2.10

Hi Guys
Today my Huawei watch 1 has got Wear OS 2.10 update ( previously android wear ). i installed on watch and my version now 2.10.0.188.
i guess its just a re branding name and nothing new as watch is still on Oct 05 Security patch level.
any ideas ?
It's because android wear designation it's dead. Now it's wear os.
Enviado do meu VKY-L09 através do Tapatalk
The security patch isn't going to be updated unless there is a firmware update, and there likely never will be. A Wear OS app update will never do this.
Uhhhggg. I really wish Google would have given the watch OS and the companion app different names. There's so much confusion around this.
What's your current phone's Google Play Services version? still sitting on 2.9.x here on my Oreo Stock Pixel
Is this actually going to change anything?

I just got my old watch replaced after a year, haven't been keeping up to date
Can somebody update me with the changes? I just read that Negamann ceased development of his ROMs because he got his watch replaced with a 2.0
Is there anything stopping me from installing his old HW+ Kernel and his ROMs?
Is there a specific order I need to flash kernel and ROM? (Kernel first, then ROM? ROM first, then kernel?)
If I want to return to stock, and I'm running custom kernel, do I have to replace kernel with stock before restoring ROM?
Thanks!

Updates for Xtrons PX5: where to get from ?

Hi. I just bought a XTRONS PB68WRJP for my Jeep Grand Cherokee. The ROM and MCU are:
- ROM px5-userdebug 8.0.0 OPR5.170623.007 eng.htc (20180301.104343 test-keys)
- MCU MTCE_GS_V2.73_3 Jan 5 2018 09:59:38
I would like to know if there are updates available and from where I can get it.
Second, I would like to know how to enable the Split Screen function that actually is not working on my unit.
Thank you in advance.
This is where I downloaded my updates..

The Easiest way to get an update is to contact the Xtrons Support, they are answering quickly ( 1 Day ). Then you are safe that this update is working with your device.

Recommended rom for MTCB with only 1gb RAM

Hello. At the beginning, I apologize for my English but I support myself with translator :RE.
Which ones do you recommend the best rom for my equipment? I will depend on the speed of action and the elimination of the 1gb application memory limit. Mtu update?
I will be very grateful for link to the recommended rom.
My equipment is:
S07
MTCB-ZD-V2.79
ANDROID 4.4.4
rk3188
kernel 3.0.36+, [email protected] #1443
cpu ARM [email protected] (x4)
resolution 800*480
RAM 1024
Hello,
Having a very similar unit with only 1GB memory, I would advise keeping a 4.4.4 Android version. I have tried several 5.1 roms but they become all laggy after some usage time.

Thank you for the advice, I expected it. And what rom 4.4.4 do you use now? Which one of the best you've ever done? Have you updated mtu? Is it worth updating them or is it better to change and change only rom?
Try the malaysk 4.X version, it works for me ( with the same HU, only 1GB ) perfect, the 5.x is much slower on it
I’ve been trying to find a 4.4.4 rom for mine but I keep running into dead links. Do you know where I can find one please?
