Questions About Eincar Brand Headunit Running Win CE 6.0

Greetings to all,

First, I would ask that you forgive my ignorance, for it is great. Foolishly, I purchased a Chinese made, in-dash GPS/DVD infotainment system on E-Bay last Christmas. Because of the cold where I live and my lack of access to anywhere heated to work I was unable to install it until this spring. When I tried contacting both the manufacturer as well as the seller, about any number of issues I encountered trying to understand how to use the unit. All of my inquiries were met with the same 'we're sorry' response but no technical assistance was forthcoming. I suppose I ought to just return the unit, but I can get NO response from either party on how to proceed.

Sooo, since it seems that I'm stuck, I've decided to try and make lemonade from the lemons I unknowingly bought! The trouble is despite many, many visits to the august halls of XDA and other forums as well, I haven't had any luck on finding out about any technical data regarding my unit. That is my purpose on writing this post to this thread.

Based on my monkeying around with it, I have managed to discover the following information:

The box the unit was shipped to me in has the code TH8129GN stamped on it. The listing on E-Bay (yes, the miscreants are STILL peddling their wares there and on Amazon as well). states the O/S in Win CE 6.0.

In the 'About' field of the unit itself, it states that the 'platform' (processor) is an ARM A11. Additionally, it reveals the following information:

MCU (micro-controller) is identified as: EWay 22 2018-21:39:05

OS version: V.YC002.200001.160607

App version: HDR-V3-A-THKR-2018-05-19-F

DVD version: D01145351S83100060

The GPS software is iGO8. However the iGO support staff tells me, based on the license information I sent them, that the software is pirated, a claim the seller vehemently (for a Chinese person) denies.

What I am hoping for is that one of the knowledgeable people that frequent this thread will be able to tell me what any of the foregoing gibberish means (it might as well be written in Chinese ideograms for all the sense I can make out of it - even after typing my fingers raw searching duckduckgo.com and even google (almost identical results, BTW), or if not, point me towards resources on XDA or elsewhere on the web where I can begin learning something useful about how to make this unit do simple things (such as actually display the correct date and time - mine thinks it's October of 2099 and the time varies between 2 and 3 hours off despite multiple attempt to set the calendar and clock according to the poorly written instructions that were included with my unit.

Any assistance will be most gratefully received.

Hello, I've been trying to wipe the cache partition of my Galaxy Tab 3 GT-P5200 to update to Android 4.4.2 or install a custom rom, since the device is locked to 4.1.2, but I keep getting just "error". I've never modified the device before, nor done any weird updates or anything. Is there any way I can wipe the cache from my computer? Will a factory recovery wipe the cache? Is there anything I can do really? Any help would be really useful. Thanks in advance.

Is there a way to patch boot image to use file based encryption instead full disk one?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
There are no real sources of information to really make much sense of what cloned devices "are" and "are not". Most of the time, the device is a mash-up of various hardware.

The fact that they have "this" hardware and "this" firmware/software works with that hardware but at the same time they have "that" hardware and "that" firmware/software works with it, makes it virtually impossible to find firmware/software that works "as-is". Usually, it comes down to finding the "closest" thing you can find that works with your motherboard/cpu and then modifying the system and kernel to work with the rest of the "other" hardware that the device has.

---------- Post added at 03:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:52 PM ----------

Factory reset in recovery or factory reset in the device's system settings will both wipe cache.
[General Questions and Answers] DB126:
Nope (aside from ridiculous franken-mods). You'll need to use an app for file based encryption.
[General Questions and Answers] Sam Nakamura:
As much as I understand it wouldn't make sense because several reasons, handling of encryption is not only done by the boot image / kernel but rather involves the lowest levels not only of Android but the device's components firmware such as the CPU's trusted execution environment (TEE), needs hardware acceleration to provide acceptable performance / user experience and a updated keymaster (The Keymaster HAL is an OEM-provided, dynamically loadable library used by the Keystore service to provide hardware-backed cryptographic services.) which is probably impossible to create for the community without the help of the OEM, assuming the device in question could actually meet the hardware specifications required. (Android's evolution of encryption went through various stages which require various hardware and software resources, that's why giving a device specific answer is only possible by knowing the device and what firmware / ROM it is running on, lollipop devices introduced a very basic form is full disk encryption, marshmallow devices made it mandatory, nougat brought file based encryption which was subsequently improved by Oreo and Pie. However this is only true for devices which run the respective Android versions from factory, if a device was "only" updated the Android version's encryption requirements were NOT mandatory, this creates quite some possible cases which might be true or not)

TL;DR

updating from FDE to FBE would even with greatest efforts be pretty much impossible to achieve, at least not reliable, much less would it provide satisfying performance and therefore acceptable user experience!

Also most Developers probably aren't keen on fighting with encryption, especially since there's a working method, updating the device's encryption method potentially introduces a variety of issues and users losing their data partition over messed encryption / decryption subsequently having to factory reset aren't happy either...

Hi I was wondering,

I have a rooted Oneplus7 Pro, stock Android 9.5.8.

I don't know if this goes for all Pie Android's, but i use the hidden app protection with a password, so they shouldn't be accessible without right?

Wrong!

I've installed Viper4Android using Magisk and when i'm using Spotify, there's a eq option in Spotify that gives me access to Viper4Android without Android asking me for a password.

Noticed yesterday and also yesterday Google warned me Viper4Android is unsafe.

-could they be related?

-is it a known issue?

-is there a fix? (don't think removing Google's alert is a fix)

So I got rooted android 6 device. SD card is formatted to be an adoptable storage.

I can move audio and video files to sd card (to mnt/expand/somelettersandnumbers) using file managers with root access, however audio and video players can't access these files.

How do I make those files visible to players? Maybe there's some way to link sd card folder to internal storage or something?
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
As what I understood you moved the files to a root directory, I don´t think that players app can find them this way so they don´t have root permissions to access to them.

Move them to any folder that you conveniently can create in your main sdcard, then give all the permissions to these apps to can access and read on it if is needed.

[General Questions and Answers] TemperanceAlicorn:
Hello all, I'm not experienced with forums, so if I'm missing stuff that "everybody knows," that's why.

Previously, on androidx86 ver 6, I could mount my ntfs partition just fine with the built in tools in the terminal.

However, I've now upgraded to androidx86 ver 8 r2. As far as my terminal emulator is concerned, everything is working just fine and mounted. But my file explorer apps see nothing in the folder created for the mounted partition. Further, creating a new folder where the mounted partition is supposed to be works according to the file explorers, but is not seen in the terminal.

Additionally, the terminal couldn't get to the user storage via storage/emulator/0/.

Instead, I found the user files under /sdcard/ and therefore created the mount destination folder there. Interestingly, the explorer apps see that folder, leading me to think it was the right place.

I restarted my terminal, and now it can read /storage/emulated/0/ just fine. It lists my destination folder there. It also lists my destination folder under /sdcard/. However, trying to access the folder via emulated/0/ returns the error for a non-existent folder. Going via sdcard/ can access the folder but after the restart of terminal, only sees the test folder I created earlier.

I then tried remounting (and I had to unmount first despite being unable to get back to it), and though terminal lets me access the folder through the standard path of storage/emulated/0/ (perhaps before I had typo?), the problem still remains that terminal can see the ntfs partition and contents, but the explorer apps can't.

hey guys, so i ve added an smart entertainment hud on my car. the problem is that there isnt an internet sim slot.

the solution would be to use a smartphone and make a hotspot. since that smartphone would be used primary for car hotspot, i would like to underclock and undervolt. know any smartphone/phone that can be underclocked more than 100 mhz ?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Why not just get a mobile hotspot activated on it's own mobile plan instead of using a phone to create a hotspot? The mobile hotspot would give you better results as far as data speeds than hotspotting from a phone, but, you wouldn't be able to UC/UV.
[General Questions and Answers] Raresh T:
You mean using a portable wireless router? Would a router, battery wise, last longer than a smartphone?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Yes, because a phone has all kinds of stuff going in the background other than just the hotspot data transfer feature, in other words, it's doing all the normal phone stuff, this takes more battery. The mobile hotspot device only has one thing running
[General Questions and Answers] Raresh T:
That might work, thanks mate
[General Questions and Answers] DB126:
Underclocking/undervolting have minimal power saving potential on modern devices. If you have an old phone/gizmo simply hardwire a 12v charger into the cars electrical system and be done with it. Fuse adapters are readily available to simplify the job. You could even select a continuously powered circuit that wouldn't cut out with the ignition. Phone 'charger' draw is incredibly low; would take weeks to drain the cars battery. In that case simply unplug the phone.

Minimum set of gapps for Android Pay

What is the minimum set of gapps that Android Pay will work with? Pico?
[General Questions and Answers] Ibuprophen:
Google Pay should work using any of the packages you choose.

For example, If you look at the following OpenGApps Package Comparison Chart...

https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Package-Comparison

... You'll notice that Google Pay is only included in the "Stock" & "Super" packages but, towards the bottom of the page, you'll notice a list of Play Store links for many/most of the Apps used in one or more of the various OpenGApps packages.

They provide those links to help you locate one or more of the Apps for you to both, identify where they grab those apps for packages that include them and, also to separately obtain and install manually if you install a GApps Package that doesn't include them.

I, personally, use the smallest GApps Package (Pico) that's basically the Play Store and what makes it work.

I only choose the Pico because If I wanted any additional apps, I prefer to manually install them myself. This option, I feel, gives me better control over what goes into my device.

I hope I had explained this okay via text... :eek:

[General Questions and Answers] ksio89:
I have a Moto G6 Plus running Android 9.0, that has hardware support for VoLTE (SDM630), but Lenovo scumbags removed the feature from the stock firmware of my country (Brazilian retail). The stock ROM does have a toggle for turning VoLTE on/off, but it's broken, because when I make a call with 4G on, the "4G" icon turns into an "H+", aka 3G. i'm sure the carrier where I live supports VoLTE, because it works just fine on my mom's Moto G5 Plus on Android 8.0 and in the samecarrier. Actually, there should be a "4G+" icon, which already shows LTE Advanced is not enabled.

Is it possible to re-enable VoLTE on stock ROM with root access, by editing any system file, or the only way to get VoLTE support back is flashing a custom ROM that has this feature implemented? Thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] Ibuprophen:
I don't have this device myself but, I did a little digging around and found that even the Custom Firmwares doesn't have VoLTE either.

Apparently, the VoLTE APN's aren't available that's needed for VoLTE to work. It looks as though there's nothing (that I can locate) available to add this missing feature manually.

This is actually something that requires it to be implemented within the Firmware source code itself.

I hope that I had explained this okay via text... :eek:

I do wish you the best of luck! :)

Phuck :( I already regret getting this device, because I only knew about the lack of VoLTE after purchasing this phone. I swear that not a single review that I read mentioned it. I never expected Lenovo scums to do something like this. Thanks anyway for crushing my hope and giving some closure lol, I appreciate the reply.
[General Questions and Answers] Ibuprophen:
I really do understand your frustration... :(

I don't understand why the device has the capability for VoLTE but, wasn't provided with the ability for it within the Firmware.

It's kinda like getting a device that has the capability for ARM64/64-bit but, was never provided the ability for it because the Firmware was ARM/32-bit.

Sorry for the bad news... :eek:

[MENTION=4828250]Ibuprophen[/MENTION]

Maybe I´m totally wrong but I think that is not enough that device supports a specific feature when coming to specific services that finally relies on the carrier side.

I think that some brands like and not only Motorola remove this feature (and others) due to some request from the carrier and then they exclude some models from it´s own support list (I don´t guess why).

Contact with the carrier and ask for more info about your model and this issue, maybe they shed some light on this. I don´t think there is a reason why Lenovo would remove this option by itself.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If it is possible to enable VoLTE on the device, it would probably require a new kernel with VoLTE support added to the kernel. Adding this feature goes deeper than just the software layer, I think.

[General Questions and Answers] ksio89:
I accessed the Testing menu through the number *#*#4636#*#*, and on "Phone information" submenu, there's a toggle called "VoLTE provisioned", and it was turned on. Does this confirms my phone has 4G+ support on software level, but the device is blacklisted by the carrier?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If the device was previously activated on a monthly plan and the bill was not paid, then, yes, the device has been blacklisted and there is legally nothing you can do to activate the device until the bill has been paid and the carrier removes the device from blacklisting.

There is a difference between 4G LTE capability and VoLTE, these two things are not the same thing.

4G LTE capability is only the ability to use 4G data network.

VoLTE = voice over LTE.

Which of these features are you asking about?
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
The capability resides first of all in the hardware so no problem in that cause SD630 supports it, but the second scale is that the software provided by the manufacturer in this case Lenovo/Motorola have it enabled, at this point my theory is that they disable it or enable it depending on some regional/country/carrier politics.

At this point enable it is not hard at all for the manufacturer, it´s enough with an update and include it as said [MENTION=5691352]Droidriven[/MENTION] in a new kernel but I think that they are subject of what want finally a carrier.

Following this theory means that if device is a carrier branded that was provided directly by Lenovo to the carrier and this feature was blocked by software BUT if this device you bought it free of carrier out of the box in any cell store/shop then just the carrier that you are using didn´t enable this feature for this specific model (yet now but maybe in a near future) but it did it for other models.

To prove this last you could try with other chip/sim from other provider in an area that admits VoLTE.

I think that you are wording blacklisted wrongly, it´s not that your device is blacklisted to avoid this specific feature to working only on your device but all the Motorola G6+ under this carrier support.
[General Questions and Answers] ksio89:
My device was bought in a retailer, meaning it has an unbranded firmware. I think the firmware does support 4G+, as there's a "VoLTE provisioned" toggle, I'm more inclined to believe 4G+ on the Moto G6 Plus was disabled by the carrier. I'll try to spare a SIM card from another carrier to confirm.
