Support Thread for DSA Rom`s (4.4+5.1) - MTCB Software Development

Hi Community,
this is a support thread for DSA Rom`s
The reason for this here is, that all DSA threads on XDA are closed and I dont know where to share experiance and bugs for the DSA Roms.
First of all, a big thanks to DSA for sharing your Roms.
I am using the 4.4 Rom, and what should I say?
Fast, stable and clean....simple perfect
I've combined the DSA Rom with Malaysk parts to get screensafer working.
What experiance do you have with DSA Roms ?
Please share it with us
Best regards

By far the best ROM's for these units in my opinion. I'm currently stripping down DSA's 4.4.4 ROM, removing all unnecessary APK's for my system and use case, completely removing Google Play, and it boots quickly and loads nav quickly as well.

I made @dsa8310 lollipop lite by unninstalling all unusefull apps and I got it usable on 1Gb ram, much better then kitkat, because the programs run better for me and everything works... (mtc-keys, mtc manager etc.)
Was planing to make the lite update.img file to install with changed logo and removed apps, but when I was building an image it gets bigger then dsa's one, don't know why... If I tried booroondoks one, it is smaller as it should be.
If anyone knows all the apps which can be removed or just the explanation of apps it will help to build an image.
Now I totally have more than 65 apps removed and the system is fully responsive with google maps and google play included (the only problem is that removing apps from folders on computer that there is not the same package names like the apps names itself.)

Not yet, I optimized car version not image one yet... I also removed all google playstore services and replaced with different ones so everything is working but faster boot and performance.

He @dsa8310) split the file in half. when you run the 1st part, it will join part1 and part2 when it makes the update.img (Use 7zip or unrar

Thank´s a lot, Oldpapa49!
Did you, or did you ever have the DSA-ROM?
How is the subjective compared to a Malaysk-ROM?
Actually, Malaysk-ROM runs on my HU quite well, but I´am too curious as the ROM of dsa8310 is
Have a nice day!

DSA8310 rom does very well (5.1.1) which currently I'm using now. He just makes it very basic. Boots fast and is not a FUSE type rom (FUSE uses all memory for APPs)
Malasky is a feature rom, he puts some apps in it to his liking. It is FUSE type to no limit to the amount of apps.
I like to have a speedometer on main display (mal's does this) so I install a launcher that I can put what I want on the main screen.
I have the speed I want with the weather on main.
And I like apps, so I will have to limit my apps.

One question, bevore i install it:
The ROM is named xupdateKLD....
I'm worried that the "KLD" is not compatible with my JY. The ROM is not just for Klyde Head Units and universally applicable?

The only constrain to install DSA Rom is to have an MTCB Head unit and not MTCD or Intel! (I have a JY MTCB and this ROM is doing great)

I've tried to unzip the part2 of dsa ROM. It shows two errors. Whats wrong?
Edit:
No matter what 2nd part of any DSA-ROM I try to unpack, there are always 2 errors
I'm scared to destroy something on my Head-Unit when I'm flashing this update.img!

I downloaded the December xupdate rar files.
I placed both files in a folder and ran 7Zip and selected the 1st file (204,800KB) and had it extract the files. 7Zip will extract both part1 and part2 at the same time.
The extracted file will be filename update.img size of 818.159KB.
If you try extracting the part2, you will get an error. The pointers are in part1.

Done.... Oldpapa49, you are my hero!

Then you have an MTCC?
I have a MTCB and here is the last ROM from 05.08.2016.
What actually means "prerootet"?
Is the ROM now rooted or not?

Mine is a MTCB KLD6 800*480 that was 4.4.4....
I do on occasion, while driving or not, flash Mal ROM, DSA8310 ROM, Boonoorook ROM and factory. Was on DSA8310 until yesterday, now on latest 4.4.4 of Mal's. Who know what tomorrow will bring.
So far for flashing, I have done it all.
I have backups of the launcher that I like, (It historic where I can add my own stuff)
I want on my main page Speed, Weather and a few apps I like (Sirius is one).
I save my stuff via Titanium and recover apps that way.
I have like 20 USB Flash drives with all different update images.
I'm crazy.. Love it..

Hahah....., yes, you´re crazy!

The flashing of the DSA-ROM was not successful. For 10 minutes just black screen.
Is it the first time so long?

Steps are:
Flash update.img via MicroSD card in GPS slot or USB flash drive in USB slot with clear option.
After, got to second option from bottom to clear CACHE and all. The reboot unit. Should see dancing androids for a long time.
IT will the start the home screen.. Leave the unit alone, it will reboot to setup more stuff. reboot is 2 times.
Second time you should be good.
