The reason why that is happening is that the script isn't in a directory within the user's path. Using "adb shell su -c echo ${path}" will show you the directories where the executables and scripts are parsed when you run them that way. I personally recommend that the scripts I create are copied to the "/system/xbin" directory and "chmod 755 (filename)" permissions. Otherwise, you'll have to use "adb shell" then go through the process of manually becoming root with "su" then using "cd (path)" to go the directory where the script exists and using "sh rewhitelist.sh" to execute it.

Probably the easiest way to avoid this is to download the "cmd-frama-menu-2.zip" from this post. Then use the menu items to install remount.sh first and then rewhitelist.sh and it'll do everything that is necessary for you. SInce you already have root and market working, you can skip the other functions. Once the scripts are installed then if you install subsequent apps that you can even use a Terminal Emulator app to just execute it with "su" then "rewhitelist.sh" directly from the SCT.

I personally recommend Tasker. You can get a trial copy and some how-to's from the developer's website @ tasker.dinglisch.net. You can also use's Parrot's Starter App.

I think the best task killer is Android's Settings app because it is signed with the manufacture's key and has authority over everything. However, I think that Volvo hid the Manage Applications menu. I believe it is possible that you can bring them up using Activity Manger either "adb shell am start -n com.android.settings/.RunningServices" or "adb shell am start -n com.android.settings/.applications.StorageUse".

I posted a few apps in a post from the Asteroid Market for the Asteroid Smart from the top of page 32 and 34. You can download then sideload them using "adb install (filename.apk)" or copy them onto the SD Card and use ES File Explorer. Just remember these are "optimized" for the Smart not the SCT. As always, your mileage may vary.

I can confirm that the problem is only with Spotify when playing his music. :(

If I've TomTom running and play music from SD no problems at all (Only tomtom quite slow as usual)

The optimum will be give a sort of priority to Spotify... Any ideas ?

Everyting fine with the menu and rewhitelist.sh !

Thanks [MENTION=2984707]gekkekoe123[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5389783]donaldta[/MENTION] ! Very simple:good:

I've also installed also the Terminal Emulator for rewhitelist in the future

I've used Parrot's Starter App to start Spotify.

There is any way to uninstall apps that I do nos use such Deezer Tunein ParrotSpotify ?

Thanks for all

Good night
[Connected Car] donaldta:
Not really, sorry,

That's easy, just erase the APK from /system/app. However, you may consider backing them up first in case you change your mind or need them at a later time.

So... this ARMv7 Processor rev 2 (v7l) it's not so good ?

I've try also with sygic but seems to be the same... :(:(

But can I be sure that deleting this original Volvo apps the system has no problem at startup ?

More than one seems to be preloaded on system startup and I'm worry that some system files can have reference to this apps and can be a problem ?

Hi all,

I'm the FlitsNav for Android developer. Great effort guys!

These are two different problems. This is about not closing the MediaPlayer stream after using it, the problem I encountered was that some ringtone media files have an embedded "repeat flag" in the meta-data.

FlitsNav indeed uses the "alarm" audiostream and closes the stream after use.

If you experience any strange behavior with FlitsNav on the SCT, don't hesitate to contact me.

regards,

[Connected Car] donaldta:
Well, I wanted to get an idea of processor they used on the SCT. It seems that it is probably comparable if not the same processor that is included in the Asteroid Smart. I'm not saying its bad, as it seems to do the job on the Asteroid Smart. However, the Texas Instrument OMAP 3630 processor is a little bit dated compared to the modern CPUs. After all, the OMAP3 processors were introduced about 5 years ago.

You'd need to install CPU / RAM / DEVICE Identifier to get a better idea which processor it is, but I suspect it is probably the same as the Smart.

You might be having problems with certain apps due to Volvo's optimization for their closed eco-system. Remember these apps weren't meant to run on the SCT. So, its one of those "your milage my vary" situations when you use the device outside of the manufacturer's design.

You definitely want to be careful of which APKs you remove. For example, I recommend that you never ever delete AcuHome.apk since that's the launcher app for the SCT. But, I believe that you can safely delete the com.parrot.deezer.apk (Deezer) and com.parrot.radiotime.apk (TuneIn) since those are just MediaEngine plug-ins for the Parrot Music Player. Theoretically, the worse that will happen is that their respective app links will be removed from the AcuHome launcher. However, I don't think you'll get any better performance just by deleting them.
[Connected Car] fmpin:
Good I'll try when I've a little time thanks

I've try with ES File Manager but when I try to delete it says: "cannot delete file" this for deezer, tune in and live radio

I was thinking to delete this apps to obtain more space on the system disk (very low space) and also to improve the system startup time (each time it loads all this apk)

I've also another question... yesterday for the first time a "very bad thing" happens : after turn on car and SCT the touch function was totally disabled !:mad:

I don't know why and I hope it will never happen anymore...

But the only way to solve the problem was turn off the car engine and wait...

So my question is: there is any app or other way to reboot the system without accessing to the touch function ?
[Connected Car] AAT:
Yes. Install Rebooter _https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=Rebooter.Rebooter_. Use the scroll wheel on the steering wheel, select the application and click on it.

Use Root Uninstaller _https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rootuninstaller.free_, they can be frozen, remove, make a backup of applications.

First - try to freeze, check whether the problem, then do a backup on sd card, only then can be removed.
[Connected Car] fmpin:
Thanks I'll try !
[Connected Car] donaldta:
Incidentally, in order for this to work, you'll need to enable Root Explorer option in ES File Explorer. It is also strange with some functions concerning /system directory that you need remount it manually as read-write. This can be facilitated with my script using "remount.sh system-rw". Although, other features like pasting a file from a different directory will automatically do that for you.
[Connected Car] Gray1:
Dear donaldta, You are wrong when saying these things about ESExlorer. Even if it has all the rules and root access it can't delete apk in system and can't replace/change whitelist as You think.
[Connected Car] noten093:
Thank you so much :D for the script. Picked up my new car yesterday and hacked SCT immediately. So happy with it. Cannot seem to get an Android FTP server running for the kids Ipad yet but that is secondary. Thanks for the efforts guys. I will follow new developments.
[Connected Car] donaldta:
ES File Explorer has a built-in FTP server. You can enable it from the Tools > Remote Manage option. Although, I am not quite sure why you would need it for your kids' iPad.
[Connected Car] noten093:
Hey Donald,

With AVHD they can stream movies from an FTP server. I want to hook up a 500GB hd to the SCT and put all their movies on it. BTW, loving ES file Explorer for as long as they exist. For convenience I would need an FTP server who automatically boots. And it would be nice if the Wifi hotspot function of the SCT would work automatically at boot.
[Connected Car] noten093:
Es file explorer works. Also the app FTPService if I use the port I got from ES.
[Connected Car] donaldta:
Am I?

Am I? Check the video.
[Connected Car] noten093:
Ok found my workaround. Install FTPService from Play store and set port 3721 in the settings. Also select "autostart with Android" . Download Tasker from the Play store: set profile "AutoHotspot", Condition: "Device Boot", Task: "WiFi Tether" → set On. This way the system will be a wifi hotspot everytime you start the car and FTP service will be available for other devices. (Note: I tried it with the internal SDcard. Still have to hook up a 500gb hd and try it again.)

In this way all passengers can link to the wifi hotspot and surf the internet while driving. Also if you install AVHD for Ipad and set the FTP link to the SCT, they can stream movies to the Ipad. Best entertainment system ever! :good: Who needs these boring LCD panels in the head rests. This is so much better.

Has anyone found a working app for the SCT that shows the nearest charging points?
[Connected Car] noten093:
VNCServer

Installed VNCserver for Android and added it bootable in Tasker. My V60 PIH is charging right now and I can access my cars' hotspot from my home. With VNC client I am seeing my SCT screen on my laptop and controlling it remotely. Very cool.
[Connected Car] donaldta:
Yep, and if you install a VNC Client on the SCT and a VNC Server on your smartphone then you can emulate the SmartLink app that turned into vaporware when Volvo released it. ;)

Btw, watch out about automatically enabling all these networking protocols on your SCT. Remember ADB is available over WiFi, so it won't take much for someone to hack into it.

SCT Time

Hi Guys, a simple question for you.

I live in Italy and the time here is UTC/GMT +1 hour.

The time of SCT is synchronize after boot whit the car time but for a few seconds on SCT display I see the original time that is UTC I guess..

There is any way to setup this time of SCT to the italian time so they are not uncorrelated

Thanks !
[Connected Car] donaldta:
.

That's the Parrot Home2 launcher. It is the default launcher that comes with the second generation Parrot Asteroid products. I do not have a Volvo Sensus Connected Touch btw, I own a Parrot Asteroid Smart.

Yes, encryption only increases the difficulty for a direct attack. However, one of the key tenets to hacking is that wherever there is convenience there are going to be inherent trusts that can be violated. If you're interested check out this series; Hak5: WiFi Hacking Workshop. And then if you finish watching the series then ask yourself, has your kid's iPad ever joined an open WiFi network?

I think in Italy, your timezone bounces between CET (UTC+1) & CEST (UTC+2) depending on the time of year. Could it be that when the SCT was first set up it was manually configured for UTC+2 but it is showing the 1 hour offset now that it is set to UTC+1 with the automatic GPS time synchronization? Not sure if it will help, but try unchecking the automatic GPS sync and set the time and time zone manually. Reboot it and check if it switches while starting up then re-enable the GPS time synchronization.
[Connected Car] noten093:
Thanks, decided to switch to manual activation. I have another question. Before I did connect with your menu.bat script just by entering the ip nr. Since today I have to specify the portnr :5555. I cannot get my head around what changed.

Also, is it possible to do the whitelist renewal .sh with a shortcut in Android? Then you could just install an app from the market, press the .sh shortcut and reboot without connecting remotely.
[Connected Car] fmpin:
Thanks for your help again !

But this settings I think are not on the STC configuration... probably are you talking about an android system setting ?
[Connected Car] donaldta:
.

Well, the menu.bat, rewhitelist.sh and remount.sh files are my only contribution to this and they only facilitates the convenience. However, the rest of archive is managed by [MENTION=2984707]gekkekoe123[/MENTION]. There could be changes in the files that he implemented which fixed whatever bug he had and was inherited in cmd-frama-menu-2.zip update that is causing it.

The connection relies on bin/adb.exe file and last I checked, it should automatically default to port 5555. So unless your SCT is running two Android Debug Bridge Daemons (adbd), I have no idea why the port information is necessary for you. Maybe download the Android Developer's Toolkit and use its "sdk/platform-tools/adk.exe" command to test the connection and "sdk/tools/monitor.bat" GUI to see what's going on with your SCT.

Actually, both rewhitelist.sh and remount.sh commands should be installed into your SCT's "/system/xbin" directory when using menu.bat, so you don't need another computer to re-install and re-activate them. You can use something like Tasker to automate their execution, or you can manually execute them using terminal software, like Terminal Emulator. I think you can use tasker to create shortcuts for a third-party launcher but the default launcher on the SCT, AcuHome, isn't a traditional launcher that supports modification easily.

You're right, this is an Android System Setting but the SCT is build around Android. As far as I can tell the SCT uses the same Settings.apk as the PAS. So, I have no idea what options in the Settings application are available to you that I can see on my Parrot headunit, as I understand that Volvo has hidden some menus. If you search this thread for "am start" then you can see all of the ways to launch a handful of menus through Activity Manager using their intents.

I think the one you want is "bin/adb shell am start -n com.android.settings/.DateTimeSettings" through a PC or from the Terminal software on the SCT just, "am start -n com.android.settings/.DateTimeSettings"
[Connected Car] fmpin:

[Connected Car] noten093:
Donaldta, I thought I had had my hard drive working. But when I browse with ES Explorer I can only find the SDCARD. I see a shortcut named "D". But when I open the link I see a file also named D. But when I open this ES asks me how to open the file (text, audio etc)

FTPService cannot see the D

Should it be mounted in a special way? The SCT home screen sees the harddrive and music can be browsed.

BTW here a shot of me driving (electric) with Flitsnav working from boot with Tasker: http://youtu.be/RAQiKm2C3Z0
[Connected Car] donaldta:

First thing you should know is that Android is built on top of Linux not Widows. So, there is not going to be [A-Z]: designation for attached drives. Linux will mount the drives onto sub-directories. For example, your sdcard's block device "/dev/block/vold/179:1" is actually mounted onto "/mnt/sdcard". You can see all the mount points by typing "mount" in your terminal app.

I'm not sure about the SCT's mount point for USB Drives but on the PAS it is under "/tmp/udev/dev/.mnt/" (which is hidden because the name of the last directory is prefixed with a ".", so you'll need to enable show hidden files in ES File Explorer). It creates directories in this path to mount drives and are named after their linux device; sd[a-z][1-255], eg, "sda1". If you cannot find it at that path then use "mount" in your terminal app to get a better idea.

:good:

Hi guys

I used the bat-script to finally open up my SCT after following this topic from the start! Great work, big applause!

Executed every step untill the reboot, and finally had the market and Google-accounts

However, after installing Google market I cannot install any app,f.e. Root uninstaller, or ES F.e. (both < 7Mb)

Error downloading "Root uninstaller". There is not enough space on the device.

I've been reading a number of pages (and the OP of course) and I think it should be possible to at least install some apps this way, or is it only possible to install apps through ADB?

and, another question: Google maps (navigation) latest version doens't seem to be compatible with Android 2.3.7. I think I sohluld be able to download and install an older APK for google maps?
[Connected Car] donaldta:
Danger!

WARNING!

NOT

attempt to replace the SCT's BUSYBOX executable or the command symlinks to it. Another user in this forum just sent me a private message stating that they tried this on their SCT and can no longer mount USB drives or connect to ADB over WiFi. Apparently, they also do not have a File Explorer or a Terminal Emulator installed so it seems this is going to be nearly impossible to fix and will most likely be required to swap it at the dealer.
[Connected Car] jongbj:
Hi Zakraket,

If you follow the instructions on the first page you will see that Google market needs to update itself several times to Play Store, then you need to update the SuperSu. After that you will be able to install these programs.

I rooted mine before the automated script and followed the OP to the letter and it worked perfectly.

For maps: I did not need to reinstall that, the navigation function was unlocked when I rooted the device. Through the Play Store several of your programs may update automatically.

At this time, I use Maps to find a location, then tab the location, choose navigate, choose Tomtom and I'm on my way.

Have fun
[Connected Car] donaldta:
.

Use "remount.sh cache-sd" to be able and install >7mb packages from Google Play then use "remount.sh cache-og" to return it to the original configuration BEFORE launching your new apps.

Google Maps is only compatible up to 6.14.4 due to the limitations in the Gingerbread API (level 10).
[Connected Car] Zakraket:
Thanks twice :) I will try. However, I took the ADB-route (with the script) to push rebooter, root uninstaller and ES f.e. to the unit. All going well :) Made backups of Wikango and some other ****ty apps and uninstalled them.

Btw...in the appslist (under root uninstaller) there is an app with a Chinese name. Anybody know what this is? It's got a blueish icon with a yellow thingie over it (I think it was about 1,8mb)

I'll check out the old Google mapsversion

I have used the batchfile, it worked all the way to the system rebooting. I have been fiddling with it for an hour but did not get any updates on the Market (its still Market, not play).

I did get some app-updates though.

With regard to Maps: what do you mean? There is a "Maps" application by Parrot, but it's not Googlemaps. And I have nav, but that's iGo. What navigationfunction are you talking about?

The script installed Google framework, but as far as I can see (noob) that comes almost without any of the Google-apps.

Fun we will have (now), that's for sure! (That is...not the person Donald was talking about :rolleyes: replacing the unit will cost a lot I'm afraid)
[Connected Car] jongbj:
You really need to be patient and do absolutly nothing (except keeping SCT from shutting down due to inactivity, and Market will update itself. It may need a few reboots to get to the most current version. In my experience it will take up to 5-10 minutes before market updates itself, and took 2 updates. After that: don't forget to update the SuperSu software.

I mean the Maps function that came with the SCT. It originally is a stripped down version of google maps (at least, thats what it looks like). After rooting, it is no longer stripped down and you can use the naviation of that program (which is the same as google maps navigation) or use it as source to start either iGo or Tomtom (and have the program send the destination info to iGo or Tomtom).

Good luck.
[Connected Car] donaldta:
If you're talking about 谷歌拼音输入法 (Google Pinyin Input Method) then that is the soft keyboard for Chinese gesture typing. Google supplies it along with the Japanese soft keyboard by default with their SDK, I guess Parrot just leaves them in their ROM regardless of the localization. Unless you're going to be typing in those languages they are superfluous.

That is all it is supposed to do. It adds the ability to add Google account in the Account & Sync apps along with the APIs to support it for other Google apps.
[Connected Car] noten093:
Thanx again Donaldta. I put your location: /tmp/udev/dev/.mnt/ as the default folder. When I make the FTP connection I see a folder called sda1. When I open this I see the root of my hard drive!

Seems that the PAS is the same device.

I use terminal now to execute rewhitelist.sh and the reboot command as you suggested.

Suggestion. Maybe you should add a line on page 1 of this toppic after installing and updating Play Store.

First install Terminal and ES File Explorer for emergency issues.

Hey PocketRocket... My market did not update at first. I repeated some steps. I think it was:

cp /data/local/*.apk /system/app/.

chmod 644 /system/app/GoogleServicesFramework-2.2.1.apk

chmod 644 /system/app/Market-3.3.11.apk

[Connected Car] donaldta:
That's pretty interesting. Though if you used my menu.bat script then it should have already done this for you. Something that is interesting is that there shouldn't be any apk files in /data/local because my batch commands will copy them into "/data/local/tmp" directory and then erase them after they've been copied and chmod'ed. Although, gekkekoe123's original scripts copy them into "/data/local" but they would fail because he used "mv" instead of "cp". If there are anything wrong with script or batch files then please let me know, I'd like to address the problems instead of sweeping them under the carpet.
