To choose the correct TV box to use togther with our Pumpkin car gps radio,first you need to know which digital TV standard is applied in your country? DVB-T, ASTC or ISDB?


There are mainly 3 digital TV standards in the world: 
1. DVB-T: Mainly apply in Europe, Australia, India, etc. So if you’re living in these countries,the TV box you should use the Y0005 in our website:http://ift.tt/2eWA1GY
2. ATSC: Mainly apply in the US, Canada, Mexico, Korea, etc. If you’re living in these countries,the TV box you should order is the Y0007 in our website:http://ift.tt/2eNvdpM
3. ISDB: Mainly apply in Japan, Brazil, Peru and some other South American countries.

Okay, I will be writing a full, detailed review of this Pumpkin product very, very soon – but let me just say this: I ordered this Android unit on Tuesday. It arrived on Thursday. I installed it on Saturday. It’s now Thursday. I love it. I still need to install the reverse camera, and I’m waiting for the DAB adapter to arrive (the first one had loose wires, I contacted Pumpkin, they arranged for a new one to be sent straight out) but initial thoughts are WOW. The bluetooth connectivity to the phone is great. Calls are crystal clear (that’s without properly mounting the mic, it’s just on the passenger seat at the moment) the GPS is accurate and strong, despite that too not being properly mounted yet, and lying in the passenger footwell. It picks up the house wifi whilst on the drive, and installs apps no problem, and picks up my OBD2 dongle perfectly well too.


I’m currently using PowerAmp for music, MAPS.ME for navigation, have a 2gb MicroSD card for navigation, 16gb MicroSD card with nothing on it yet, and an 8gb USB Flash drive plugged in. That still leaves TWO USB extensions free!


I have also purchased another camera, which I hope to install in the front of the car, and wire it up via a switch.


The installation was pretty straightforward, nothing additional was needed (ie, no adapters for connectors) and the steering controls work too.


As stated, this is just an initial, short review – I will be doing a much more detailed one as soon as I can, and once I have fully installed rear camera, DAB and front camera.


But if you’re currently sitting on the fence – just buy it. It’s amazing.

Situation 1:


If your android device from Pumpkin can still turn on to the main menu without problem, then you just need to download the firmware, normally it is just a single file with name “update.img”, just copy the file into an empty (micro)SD card, make sure the file is in root of the card.(ie, when you open the card, the file is directly located there)

Then please turn on the HU to main menu, insert the (micro)SD card into the GPS slot of the HU, please go to setting–about machine to click system update option manually, then the mini window will show.
Below is a short tutorial video to show you the whole process.

Warning: 
Please DO NOT disconnect power or do other operation to the radio while updating, or the HU will be damaged. Any artificial damage to the HU will void the warranty.


Situation 2:


If unfortunately the HU is already do not turn on to main menu, but stuck in the boot logo menu, then you may need to go to the Android recovery mode to install the system. First please also make sure you inserted the update card into the GPS slot of the HU. Just press the power button and the RST button, keep them about 5 seconds, after that, release the RST hole, then loosen power button, the HU will automatically enter into the recovery mode. 

Then you short press the power button to switch up/down, long press to choose “update system/mcu image from sdcard and clear all. The update process will be automatically done by the HU itself, below is a tutorial video for reference.

In case you may use the wrong firmware due to different item with different firmware, the firmware link will not be public here directly, please send us your order number, we will reply to your email address with the proper firmware. Or you can direct email above order information to andy-pumpkin@hotmail.com , any email will be replied within 24 hours expect for Saturday and Sunday due to off work.
