I thing i have brick my Dasita PX6 1280x720 MAX10 RK3399 with a update with a wrong resolution.
I have try everthing but cant find a IMAGE.img with the right resolution for it.
On the Screen i cant see only colored stripes and i dont know what he will say me.
Is there any way to give him the right resulution back without scren ?
What update(s) were applied - file names.
What steps were taken.
What does your reseller suggest when contacted for support?
Here you can see a Video of the Device now: https://photos.app.goo.gl/819Y9LbwcTSJWf9TA
I have Install the Update from this side the second one: https://www.mic-autoradio.com/updates/
My Resseler on AliExpress doesent react since 2 week on my Questtions.
I think it is only a wrong resolution. But i dont know how i can chance it now.

In your video you show a Dasaita head unit which is an MTCD/E unit, and you used an update file for a different type of head unit

Yes i know, i dont know who has ride me there...
I was a stupid young (46) Boy and have drink to mutch beer ;-)
But now i can only use the Mask Mode to ReInstall it and for that i need the install.IMG file OR ??
I believe your max 10 has a hdmi output on the back? You can use that for another screen to see what you are doing to install the proper update.
People are too quick to update for no reason, and they often get into trouble as a result. NEVER do system updates unless there is a SPECIFIC NEED.
I have try this before but with no input on the TV.
I think this HMDI is only for a Video player.
1- download a firmware for px6 .img
2- install it with usb method (purple usb)
3- download the latest firmware 202101 (update.zip) and put it on a usb stick
4- enter recovery and install it
5- do a wipe and restart
...
if this does not work, the only method is to take the coreboard and repeat the whole procedure on a radio with a resolution of 1024x600

I have try it again, but without luck.
The TV goes from NO SIGNAL to a Black Screen.
It looks like the HDMI Out is only a Mirror of the internal Display.
I have now Install a Android 9 Recovery this WAY.
And if i now click 4 time short and 1 times long - 1 short - 1 long the RST Button the Soft-Buttons are flashing.
It looks like i am in the Recovery. But i dont knowwhat i am pushing.
Can anyone give me a Picture of the Andorid 9 Recovery Menu ?
And please a second Picture if you pressed Apply system and MCU Update.That i know what i must push.
EDIT: Found out, that the lights only flashing if i have a update.img on USB OR SD Card in the device.
The recovery menu is the same.
One click to go down to update system or 2 clicks down to update MCU, then a LONG click to select/enter
Make sure you have your sd card or usb in and ready to go

Are you Sure ?
Anyone knows what i Click if the Softbuttons are Flashing ?
If it is right what Bob_Sanders says, it must be the Wipe Data/Factory Reset.
Have it BACK ;-)
The hint is to install the
DMCU.ext for 1280x720 units: View attachment dmcu-1280x720.zip
Found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...pdates-for-dasita-px6-1280x720-max10.4173669/
Can someony give me a hint what i must make next ?
I have try to install the 8,.1 image.img (thats the only i found).
But it doesend work, if try to install it over the Recovery System (Pic last Post) i only geht /dev/... not exist.
or no directory
I have Flash on the SoC the 8.1 update.img.
But what must i do with the SD-Card ?
EDIT:
I have put the Recovery 10 Img on the SOC.
- Starting without SD-Card doesend work. Under 1 second i get the 10. NAvigation Multimedia" Picture Black Screen without Backlight. Nothing else happents, the Device only consume 0,1 Amp.
- Starting with a blank SD-Card Format in Fat32 is the same like the first point.
- Starting with a SD-Card format with the SD-Card Tool and the Recovery 10 img as SD-Boot works. I came into the Recovery 10 Menu. But i cant install there a update, everytime i get the error that the /dev/ not exists.
- Put an USB Stick with the Recovery on it on the purple USB doesend work. Same like the first point.
Any Ideas ?
I have it running again.
My problem was that I only have one SD card that works. The other ones I used did not show any errors, but do not work in the PX6 for installation/updates.
Only apparently I still have a hardware brig.
The first logo with the 10 comes absolutely clean, but after that the graphics rather reminds me of a Comodore VC20. Even the font in the recovery is not properly displayed as already seen in the pictures above.
Attached are two videos of how it currently looks:
I have now ordered as a first measure times the cable between motherboard and screen new, that should arrive tomorrow. Otherwise, I would only think of the SOM as a source of error OR?
After figuring out the the dmcu.ext is basically a text file and the only thing in it is screen:x x being a number. The number representing a resolution in relation to what MCU and OS. The default of 1280x720 is 12 on all of the dmcu.ext I could download. I read in most people changing it to 18 depending on which MCU you have installed is what i read. I also was not doing a factory reset erase all before I did an install. So I did the factory reset and the dmcu.ext with screen 12. nothing happened. I did it again with 18 nothing. The 3rd factory reset with screen:0 and on all of these I was using MTCE_HA_V3.62 for dmcu.img. When this one rebooted it had a black screen. I plugged a monitor to the hdmi output and I could see through the monitor just fime but I had to touch my head unit screen where I think it should be according to the monitor so I factory reset again with screen:13 in the dmcu.ext and when the head unit rebooted after installing it was the correct resolution..
Good you got it working again.
For the record....
I don't do updates at all anymore. It seems there is more of a risk to damage than any good that can come.

I am really confused as to which file I put on the SD card to update the MCU. Can someone please point me in the right direction. Super NoOb here.
Is the first file the MCU update and the second file the android update?
@hotaudio Can you update your bluetooth phone app to include a mute button? It is relatively useless for me without this feature (need to be on mute over long meeting calls with a kid in the car)
or otherwise provide information on how to replace this app with another phone app?

the mcu update is just a few Kilobytes while the ROM (firmware) update is above 700MB
the mcu update file shall be named as dmcu.img (if you received a Zip file with both ROM & MCU, decompress it to get both)
put it on SDcard as mentioned and go to settings>System information>MCU update
@hotaudio is there a easy way to gain root for your system?
I was able to update. Everything went fine except now when I turn the car on and the HU wakes up it displays "Unfortunately Music has stopped working". Anyone know of a fix. Might try a wipe and install of the update. Any thoughts appreciated.

Same issue - 030217 update. When I had originally installed the 030417 update from another PX5 thread here, this issue was not present. I downgraded to the 030217 update to stick with the current Dasaita build.

hi
is the system update , fix the google maps sound bugs
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.

so i was able to install a new ROM Malaysk android 10. was able to run this command
settings put global policy_control immersive.full=*
my question is, is this permanent, or do I have to run this command every time I turn the radio on .

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.

Seems like you flashed an MCU as well as the ROM and it was the MCU from a different manufacturer, in order to restore it you need to find out which manufacturer your unit is from. Do you know ?

hello, unfortunately I don't know the manufacturer, I bought it on Aliexpress, and now the seller is no longer active, and there is no manufacturer reference on the radio.
Take some pics of the sides, back and underneath if the unit - may be able to identify it. Do you remember what the MCU was before ?
EDIT : Hold on, that wallpaper suggest that it might be a KGL unit - upload those photos to confirm. Flashing a KGL MCU may help, but with no mcu.cfg it may be a struggle to restore everything. Having said that the wallpaper will have just come from the ROM you flashed, so probably best open the unit up and get the manufacturer from the motherboard to be certain.

hello typos1, I detected a problem, damn it, when I turn the physical sound button to the left, the sound decreases is correct, but when I turn to the right to increase the sound it decreases too, do you know what it could be?
why do people keep modifying car radio like that's so risky it would be terrible while your driving and radio suddenly start out of nowhere
Yes, it is because you did not go into factory settings and export your MCU settings before you flashed the MCU, you need to do this always, I understand it is because you did not know what you are doing but that is why you have the problem.
Go into factory settings and try and remap the buttons, but I dont think it works on the volume kob, you can also try changing the knob mode in factory settings. If none of this works you need to find someone with another XRC unit and try flashnig their mcu.cfg.

He did not "modify" it, he flashed a ROM without realising that there was an MCU file with it. As for mods, people have modified these stereos for years - check out all the threads about it - and mnay of these mods are very useful and correct bugs from the factory.

yeah im not trying to criticize something im just amaze that people would "flash" not "modify" btw stuff as long as there running android such as car stereo system instead of sticking to stock version
What he flashed was a stock update, so still not a mod.
The factory ROMs are not good, again, for years people on here have modified and improved the facpory ROM, many, including me would never even use the factory ROM at all.

calm, what led me to do the upgrade was the radio brought factory problems, the clock was always incorrect, gps was never in the right place, etc., and the seller never supported me ...

Yes, it is because you did not go into factory settings and export your MCU settings before you flashed the MCU, you need to do this always, I understand it is because you did not know what you are doing but that is why you have the problem.
Go into factory settings and try and remap the buttons, but I dont think it works on the volume kob, you can also try changing the knob mode in factory settings. If none of this works you need to find someone with another XRC unit and try flashnig their mcu.cfg.

Originally this thread was my stupid questions about how to update android car head unit. As a novice to these things it felt bit complicated but I assure you, it's actually easier than rooting a phone for example. I make simple steps, so people new to this can get the picture and not spam all threads with stupid questions (like we all do lol)
1. Update MCU
First things first, you need to update your head units MCU to most recent version. MCU stands for MicroControllerUnit, and you need to be specific and use ONLY right file for your head unit! (For example my unit is shown in picture, it's MTCD/E machine, it got PX5 coreboard and it's made by Leica semiconductor & electronics company, which is abbreviated as LM; So in this context I would download for example MTCE_LM_v3.67 file.
After downloading, unzip, put dmcu.img to root folder of the usb stick or sd card, stick it on and go to head units Settings > System > Update MCU.
It's really important that you use ONLY right file for your head unit!!!
Here you can find list of MCU files:
XDA - Comprehensive list of MCUs for MTCD/E head units
Yandex - Comprehensive list of MCUs for MTCD/E head units
2. Install new Android version
Newer android version can be referred as ROM or FirmWare (As I see it, FW is MCU and Android OS is ROM but let's not get into debate or complicate when I'm trying to KISS it)
user @marchnz has compiled nice thread on how to update to android 10.
If you don't have SD card on your hand or you are lazy/hesitant/what ever, you can use ModInstaller Pro made by @Hal9k_ It's safe and makes life a breeze!
I recommend updating step by step 6>7>8>9>10 and before proceeding to custom rom, install appropriate stock android version first. I advice to backup important files and do a factory reset before flashing new rom and after install wipe data/ factory reset (ModInstaller Pro does this for you after it's done installing). Also pay attention
Here's a list to stock android files.
Yandex - Stock android versions
It's best to check from factory settings what BT-module you have, before proceeding to upgrade. Make sure to check that your devices BT-module works with the android version you intend to install or you just waste time flashing different versions. And it's completely normal if you dont get it right the first time. I have WQ_BC6/8 BT-module and had to use WQ_BC8 before android 10 and now WQ_BC6 on android 10 (if i remember correctly). If you have MD-725 or SD-968 BT-module you can try using BT codec from earlier Android version. Don't even bother trying to get these modules work on Android 10, not gonna happen. It's better to solder a new BT-module if you really want Android 10.
If SD-968 was working in Android 8, but does not work in Android 9. Solution: replace the module driver /system/bin/sdsdk968 with the old version. Do not forget to set permissions 755 on the file. Same can be tried on MD-725 from Android 6/7 to Android 8, I don't guarantee it will work. Files are out there (and in your machine before making the update).
If you happen to install package with wrong resolution, you can try to fix it using this (yandex).
For different look you can try different launchers from google play or yandex link again.
That's it. Not too complicated. If you want to root your head unit, easiest way is to flash a custom rom that has It done for you already. I really recommend ModInstaller Pro even though it cost a bit. But it saves time and nerves and it's safe to use especially for novice. By doing yourself without knowledge you might end up bricking your device!
For me this new territory of android car head units was like a swampland even though I'm experienced on rooting and flashing android phones but for example adb sideloading is most of the time not even an option when playing with these head units.
I spent hours and days to get into this, but now I can update a head unit and make app installs and settings in under 1 hour.
Remember every unit is different! Not everything works on all devices. Get to know the unit you are playing with, update MCU, after that decide what android version is ok with your device (BT-module) then update (highly recommend ModInstaller Pro)

This is MCU update
This is forums for learing
So got that new MCU and experienced with different ROMs. Got the machine work bit faster but Im still experiencing problems with BT. I had Malaysk Oreo and BT mic sounded underwater, not sure if it was using internal and external mic at the same time. Didn't rule that out when I went trying Hal9k Pie, didn't get any BT connectivity.
Now I'm planning to roll back to Oreo or earlier or ordering RF210 module and taking a shot. I'm just hesitant on both options because rolling back might get that device work slower and in the other hand tinkering the inners of the machine is always a risk. Any recommendations especially on rom side is appreciated. New HU is not an options.
I tried hal9k android 9 and got BT to connect, but hands-free is not working. I have to select WQ_BC8 from factory settings for BT and then it gives CAR-KIT device name in bluetooth. Does anyone have any knowledge about this BT module and can it work in more recent versions of android?
Didn't have much luck getting BT work well on Android 8 & 9 custom roms, didn't even try BT connectivity on stock roms. Don't know if it was just user error or custom roms I tried, but magically in Android 10 BT worked great, both stock and custom rom. Still need to make sure OBD connection works.
If people new to these things need help, please don't hesitate to ask a question! My idea for this thread is a collection of dumb questions so we don't litter official threads meant for other use than FAQ.
Okay People,
Here's the dealio..
I purchased the HA5217-MAX10-CP-HD. It has been AMAZING! Until Last night I hopped in and It was stuck in Bootloop REcovery Mode.

I tried all the reset procedures, cleared the cache and finally got in but no sound came out of the unit and no SWC worked.. so I took a few pics to show the exact firmware I was using.
This was my original firmware when everything was working..
I Did all the reset procedures to make everything boot into Android but, none of my sound was working except the sound of the touches on the screen.
So, I navigated to the FIRMWARE FILE Download Sections here in the Forums and thought maybe I needed to reflash the firmware maybe the latest updated firmware. HA3_rk3399_10.0_ota(20221111) which is currently installed and now it boots into Android looks a little different.
I still have no sound , the steering wheel controls wont register, the customized EQ settings for the DSP are gone.
THIS IS THE WAY IT USED TO LOOK!
The canbus CB004 unit isnt showing vehicle info like (Door Ajar, Climate, ect. ) Also, No rearview camera fuction at all.
It used to have all these extra functions specific to my 2014 Toyota Corolla W/O JBL
My gut feeling is that I am missing something to do with a custom canbus firmware or extra APKs I need to load perhaps?
I'm not sure what an MTU / DMCU file does ... maybe I need one of those?
I really need help with this
I Made A Video Explaining the whole thing.
if your able to help me, I would really appriciate it!
You started out in the wrong end. Sound, SWC and reverse has nothing to do with firmware. It's a canbus problem. Due to the fact that no car is selected, canbus won't work. Select your car to start with.
Logos are not provided any more due to copyright problems. Google is your friend.
I know this is a month old. I have the MAX10 in my 2016 Toyota Tundra.
Have you tried to update the MCU? The current version is 3.78. In a worst case scenario your canbus adapter could be bad. Considering everything used to work

I have the same CB004 harness. I know for my Toyota Tundra I had to select 08 TOYOTA_CAMRY&RAV4.
I've installed the Dasaita's Scout, Vivid, Original MAX10 Firmwares, as well as hal9k and Malaysk modified firmwares and never seen it reset anything other than Android.
Then again these units do have some unique issues.

Did you ever get your issues fixed? I can help with the car logo because I noticed it was gone too. Go to car logo in factory settings and check the box that says "user" and the logos that used to be there will be back. And for the canbus selection, select 08 TOYOTA_CAMRY. I would also update your MCU to the latest version 3.78 Firmwares.
