Pumpkin Quad Core 7-inch 1024*600 Digital Touchscreen Double Din UNIVERSAL Android 4.4 Head Unit

This morning it is sitting at the bootloader screen, and won't pass this stage. I have only had it since April..

Any idea how to fix this?

Order # 204-6053317-9709123 fulfilled through Amazon UK.

I'll try the steps you suggest when I am home on Friday.

The unit does not do anything after these steps. It just sits there with a few pixels turned white, but certainly no restore process has been started. What now?

Hi,
we got a ROM file from the factory, you can try to install it to check.

Thanks for the reply.

2 issues:

1. The mega file in not available for some reason.
2. The system update seems to require the HU to be up and running before you can re-image it. My HU is effectively dead as it will not reboot.

Or are you suggesting that even in its current state, inserting a USB disk with the image file on it should still trigger the update?

This is the file download error.Attached.

I have got the file to download now. Will take a little time on my slow connection though. I'd appreciate a response on my earlier question though.

"The system update seems to require the HU to be up and running before you can re-image it. My HU is effectively dead as it will not reboot."

My suspicions were right. The new ROM is not loaded, and won't load......

I think the unit needs to be swapped out...

This unit is still dead and it is 15 days since your last reply. How do I go about returning the unit for a refund or exchange? Via the Amazon website?
