Can someone explain the difference to me?
Is MTCD required for lollipop?
Are brands exclusive to one or the other?
Which one is better?
Thanks!
From what I'm understanding and I could be wrong, but I think the difference is the motherboards.
i think someone said in a Joying thread that MTCB was 4.4, and it needed MTCD for 5.1
the hardware that runs the 4.4.4 android is mtcB
the hardware that can run android is mtcD
completely different motherboard
you can not use the rom from one on the other.
the brands have nothing to do with this. they are all staring to sell mtcD units now.
They're the same, only different. HTH. HAND!
Pumpkin confirmed me today, that my head unit with Rk3188 1024*600 will get the update to 5.1.1 when they receive the rom from the factory.
and joying 2gb is MTCD or something superior? I can't understand
Same i dont get it?

I'm a little bit confused...
I've bin looking for a good aftermarket head unit for my 2012 Ford Focus.
I found a few devices witch are based on the S160 platform like roadnavi.
Also a device witch is marked as 5.1.1 <LINK> witch seams to be on a mtcd base.
Im not sure if there is a devices available on a mtcb base for my car model.
What i read on xda, mtcb is the most popular an mod friendly device, mtcd is maybe to new on the market.
Have any of you guys a recommendation for me? Maybe one have the same car?
Thanks, Stefan
hello,
i have a 2013 ford focus.
Sad to see that here is no answer since 1 year.
iam looking for a replacement head unit too
have you found a headunit?
regards Christoph
I bought my unit from that company I have a 2011 Focus. Been working great for more than a year now.
It supports steering wheel controls, OEM reverse sensors, displaying which doors are open including boot. I also bought the boot handle camera and wired that up.
The only downsides are BT audio isn't the best, so I play all my music off USB.
And it seems like the PX3 units drain a little power when the car is off but I've always been able to start my car so probably not a big issue.
I flashed my unit with a KD rom as it looks nicer and updated my MCU to the latest version for KGL.
Here are a few head units for you to look at:

Anyone know what's the difference between these two head units ?
I also would like to know.
Don't think there is no difference except button layout.
I just bought a chinese Android head unit off ebay.

I came here for some tips but it looks like the MCU that is on the unit is a different variant than the MTC* that XDA mentions.
The MCU that is listed on the unit is SM92B1.161111.V1-CYD-B3.
Is anyone familiar with this? I would love to get this thing modded a bit.
If it helps any, the splash screen when starting up is HIZPO.
You're in the wrong forum, this one is for Android Auto, which is a specific Google product. You want the Android Head Units forum.
Hi Guys
I've just passed my current car containing my MTCD headunit to my wife, having bought myself a new car. Its a vehicle specific unit so will be staying in my wifes car.
There are no vehicle specif units for my new car, so am looking at standard double din options. To be honest, I've never been overly happy with the MTCD unit, its the first gen version with 5.1.1 the crappy PX3 Rockchip SOC and 1 gig of RAM. I've finally got it working acceptably using Malaysks ROM and Micro Gapps, but dont really want to stick another one of these in the new car!
There are a few more options available these days, PX5 units with better Rockchip SOC and 2GB RAM, the Intel Sofia Units, some other varients and I am also looking at an Android Auto head Unit from JVC as these are coming down in price.
Important things for me are:
Bluetooth Hands free
Radio (not fussed about DAB)
Sat Nav / Maps
Reversing Cam
Music
Listening to Audiobooks, probably doesnt need to be listed, but its important to me!
ODB stuff is nice (but not so important)
Lastly, the performance needs to be acceptable, I dont care if its not blazing fast, but we all know how slow some of these units are!
With all this in mind, what do people suggest looking at currently?
Many Thanks.
Josh
Also interested.
Have done lots of reading on the PX5 vs Sofia but haven't come to a conclusion yet.
I too am in the market, I got an old Dashlinq 4 in my BRZ running Android 4.1.1 and would love something that can actually run somewhat smoothly and keep pace with current apps now. Really would like something with at least Android 6.0 and 2GB of ram. Other than that needs to be Toyota Universal 6.2 inch double din size.
If the vehicle allows it, get an Android 7.x, with a high res IPS display, they are flooding these in the android HU market in china, but models are limits to popular car models.
What MTCD px5 head unit should I buy? (or is there better option then MTCD px5?)
I would like to have matte touchscreen.
Now few questions I can't find answers to:
Is it possible to have front and rear parking cameras with MTCD unit?
And can use those for DVR when not parking?
Is it possible to have parking sensors (front and rear) working with MTCD unit?
Also I tried to get Android auto to work, but no luck since 2.0 version since it is not available in my country. So true Android auto head units are not for me.
