Okay since I have never had subs, or no much about audio stuff I did some searching and came up with this:
" You can use the RCA output of the H/U for your mono amp (with built-in crossover). Set the crossover to +- 80 Hz, but you probably knew that already.
Only downside of this is that when you change your fader settings of the front channel on the H/U your mono amp will be changed to."
Found that on XDA, they have an android auto section with a sub section for android headunits.

I appreciate you showing the back of your's Zebracakes. Mine is quite a bit different, which makes it a pain. I finally found that the head I have, Eincar, is the exact same as the Pupug YH. head. That one, I luckily found a write up on YouTube. The guy made it impossible to find by name, as he made it Installing Double Din Tablet computer into Toyota. I kept following a bunch of links, and finally found one, that had possibilities. It is the exact mate to mine. I downloaded everything on it, as well as the 26 minute video on his install. He repeats so much, he could of made this a 10 minute deal. lol
Here is a couple pictures of mine. You will see how the 9 RCA's are arranged, and the 2 RCA's input with the antenna and USB cable on the left. The instuctions on my radio say to remove two screws, which are not there on this unit, about the B wiring port, which I don't have, and numerous other descrepancies on it. This is totally different than what I ordered, but it is the upgrade for it.

They are kind of Frankenstein inventions. From what I've read is that its a tablet with an off board processor with a radio tuner, and a Bluetooth module. So it has a couple apps that arn't really android apps, built into the h/u's os. The tuner for example, you have to use the radio app that came with it, can't use any other app. Oh and the front micro sdcard is for gps only, don't know why they did that but they did. I put a movie on the card and nothing. nothing at all. Hard to explain.

It's hard to find names/models because of the fact that they are made in China or where ever. Non the less I still like it as a radio.

I love the design and simple touchscreen. To me, that is an ideal setup. It would be for almost anyone, if they, the sellers, were smart enough to include the installation instuctions along with the Andorid instuctions.
The original order for the radio I received, it was to have the wiring like yours does. The pictures showed your basic radio from the back. When it arrived, I immediately contacted the sellers and they stated that the older ones had problem with wiring, so they incorporated it into the back, so the items wouldn't get yanked out. YANKED OUT? How? Anyways, that was their logic to the switch. The booklet didn't fit this head, so I asked for help from the communities on here and MS. I appreciate the help. Their (the sellers) customer service is surely poor as heck. I'd rate them a 1 on a 10 scale. I learned another lesson in life. lol

That's why I made this thread. I'm not sure if its separated.

If it acts like any normal h/u then you just use the gain on your amp for the sub. Even if it has a subwoofer level on the h/u it's kind of bad to use. I'm by no means an expert but as long as u have rca outputs a sub is 100% do able.

You are 100% right. They are nothing but a tablet with the controller board built into the system. This is exactly what we've been doing when we've done tablet (Nexus 7 or similar designs) into our dashes. This is where this whole thing came about for myself. I have a complete set up, using the Nexus 7 2012 head, and an Alpine KTP445U amp, Joycon steering wheel controller, and a crap load more of stuff, lol. I did a partially finished write up on the Mustang Source sight on doing the tablet. Then my son found this. It had everything I wanted, included in the software, so he got that for me for Christmas.
