[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] ERICK_VAYU_A20_G6PLAY:
Greetings to all, especially the developers, the issue is that I have been searching and reading, to be able to install Postmarket OS on my P8lite device, but no matter how much I read and searched, I cannot find the installation file, could someone guide me, in I really would like Postmarket OS on my phone
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] seabass-labrax:
Unfortunately, the Huawei P8lite isn't one of the devices currently supported by postmarketOS. However, there is a page about it on the postmarketOS wiki:

Huawei P8 Lite (huawei-alice) - postmarketOS Wiki

wiki.postmarketos.org

The processor is used in the 96Boards HiKey computer, which is already supported by other Linux distributions. That makes me think it should be possible to port postmarketOS to the P8lite, but I would imagine it's going to be difficult. I've been trying to port a slightly older Huawei phone without much success.

If you do manage to unlock the bootloader, you'll need to use pmbootstrap to build the postmarketOS image which you'll then flash.

Hope this helps and good luck!
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] ERICK_VAYU_A20_G6PLAY:
Thank you very much for your support, and clarifying the issue for me, on the other hand I had already unlocked the botloader of my Y6II or P8lite, but since you recommend me, I will better learn to use pmbootstrap, but one last question, in case I have a compatible device such as For example, a OnePlus, official, or from the community and that exists, an installation method, and its respective file Can you uninstall the default GNU/Linux desktop and replace it with LXDE, or just use the terminal?
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] seabass-labrax:
Yes, you can certainly replace the default desktop with another one. In the past, I've successfully switched mine from Phosh to KDE Plasma, for instance. If you want something really simple, you could try Sxmo, which a lot of people like to use on the Pine64 PinePhone.

I am Phijack from France.

For my Lumia 530, I look for a tutorial to root and change to Android 7.1 (LineageOS 14 ?) or more.

It's a little difficult in english :cool: .
[Introductions] Dismal.:
Do you already have lineage installed?
[Introductions] Philjack:
It was to introduce myself. I had already used Ligneage 14.1 to continue using a Samsung Galaxy tab 3 tablet. But I just realized that the Lumia 530 is like the 520 and has 500k of RAM while the Galaxy has 1 Giga of RAM.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] bucaniere2:
Hello everyone, I have a Huawei MediaPad M3 Lite 10 (model BAH-W09) with EMUI 5.1.2 and Android 7.0. I have successfully unlocked the bootloader, but I am unable to install either TWRP or Lineage Recovery 19.1 in any way. My procedure is as follows: I turn off the tablet, press and hold the volume down button, connect the USB cable to the computer, and the tablet starts in recovery mode. I enter "fastboot flash recovery recovery_19.1.img" in the terminal, and it says "done." Then I enter "fastboot reboot bootloader." The tablet restarts, and the screen I've attached appears. If I press the volume up button for 3 seconds, eRecovery appears. Where am I going wrong?

No, it will never boot in recovery ... read carefully what he was able to do: he tried to install Lineage recovery 19.1 (which is a recovery for MediaPad M3 8.4) in his qualcomm device MediaPad M3 Lite ... then he asks me why I think he messed up the devices (two totally different devices)
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] dou.yidong:
Yes, see his device described. It's a Snapdragon processor. Really got the device wrong.

I bought one of these units for recently and it arrived today. It's an standalone unit based on Android. Basically, plug it into your AA/Carplay compatible headunit you're basically looking at an Android powered device.

Interestingly, the headunit identifies the unit as "CarPlay" but it launches into Android.

Couldn't find anything about it on here so I thought I'd start a thread.

Does anyone know how I can update my TomTom software (latest maps, speed cameras) for my Kaiser?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Knumb:
goto the TomTom website and you will find all the info you will need....
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Synchronization:
I can't seem to find anything about updating a Kaiser on the TomTom website.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] denco7:
TOMTOM is an application. To update, you buy the software and the maps, they send it to you on a disk or SD card and you load it into your phone.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] anoano:
The problem seems to be that there are no more recent maps (and software) since TomTom doesn't know if they want to continue or not to provide "PDA" updates, except for some OEM deals like HTC. Did you read this long thread ? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=401679
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ADB100:
TomTom only officially sell TomTom 6 for Windows Mobiles devices. With this you are limited to version 6.x maps. TomTom have updated the software to version 7 - latest is 7.910(9185) - however this isn't commercially available but is packaged by some carriers into their ROMs for two HTC devices; the Touch Diamond and Touch Pro. Only these two devices are officially supported by TomTom for Navigator 7, both these devices are VGA as well. If you go to TomTom's MapShop website and select 'NAVIGATOR 7' as your version you are then prompted with a list of different carriers devices - only HTC Touch Diamond and Touch Pro varients are listed.

What has happened since is Navigator 7 has been ripped from these devices (and TomTom's website) and backward engineered to work on other devices (VGA & QVGA) and then repackaged into installable .cab files (check the long thread in the previous reply for links to the .cabs, there are several floating around). This will get you the actual TomTom Navigator 7 application installed, however it is pretty useless without a map and the only 'official' way to get a map is via the TomTom Home application. Unfortunately this is where it all falls down as there is no legal way to download a map or activate it for your 'unsupported' device. A bit of a chicken-and-egg situation...

Without detailing anything or posting links there are other sites that have 'advice' and downloads to allow you to install the latest maps to your Kaiser running the latest Navigator. Latest maps are version 8.15, however there are sub-versions that are not compatible with all devices or software versions.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] liteswap:
That sounds about right.

Although I'd add that TomTom won't tell you that this is what they've done. Here's my story.

I went to the US recently on business and needed to drive, so I bought a copy of TomTom's US map online. After a lot of idiotic argy-bargy and toing and froing with their support department, it emerged that TomTom Navigator 6 (the latest version that works in WinMob smartphones as opposed to their own devices) is supported by the map. Nowhere on the site was this made clear. Yet, as a registered, legitimate user, TomTom's systems know I have Nav 6 running on a PDA.

It also appears that tech support for Nav 6 is negligible (although I suspect from the backwash I picked up from other users, this isn't a software version problem but a systemic problem), as the company is not developing the WinMob version any further - probably down to the cost of supporting users as a result of it's awful support department...

Cutting it short, I eventually extracted both an admission that all the above was the case and a refund, but it was painful and took a fortnight, by which time I was in the US, without a map...
[MX Player] radzi0123:
Why is there no video player that will support live text reading for movies?
[MX Player] SigmundDroid:
Human language seems clear and easy to you but practically it is one single stream of fart noises ;)

No, rly, it is difficult - try it yourself for example with VOSK:

https://alphacephei.com/vosk/

It even allows output as SRT and works pretty well for many European languages and clear speech but as soon as there is background noise/noise/chatter it becomes difficult and not pretty at all.

Best funny effect if you take another language than the actual input (eg english model for french audio) - will entertain you for at least ½ hour, I promise!

EOD, I doubt speech recognition is good enough for a player yet... still, it shouldn't stop devs from trying it out. At least it can be a funny plugin :D
[MX Player] MXPlayer:
Hi @radzi0123

We understand that TTS may help improve your experience while watching foreign content. However, there are a lot of external factors that may need to be taken into consideration to get that done right (e.g. tempo/pitch of the audio, availability of language models, quality of the TTS engine, subtitle format).

But, do not worry! we have made a note of this and will continue to explore the feasibility in the future :)
[FYT Android Head Units] Whatsaname:
Hi, I have just installed a EKYI T900 and have a problem calling out on usb connection android auto. My phone usually allows me to select which sim to use on each outgoing call. This unit just looks like its calling but doesn’t connect

is there anyway of having this working in this head unit?

incoming calls seem to be fine.
[FYT Android Head Units] samuelcseto:
Can't you set the default call SIM? On my old OnePlus I could even set it per contact.
[FYT Android Head Units] Whatsaname:
I have so many contacts as a work SIM and a personal SIM (used to have two phones) so going through all of them will be a long process. I just have the option on the phone to select when calling. I could switch and see if android works but would prefer to select each time. Some time I am returning a call when they leave A message, so they will not be saved as a contact..
[FYT Android Head Units] samuelcseto:
Ah, I understand. Seems like this should work natively in AA. I only have an iPhone so I can't test it, but maybe someone with AA can try multi sim.
[FYT Android Head Units] Whatsaname:
Tried with contact set to specify SIM but phone still shows choice (after I have pressed the home button on the HU as only then does it try toake the call...)
[FYT Android Head Units] j0hn83:
I don't think this behaviour comes from this head unit but it's Android Auto behaviour across the board.

Android Auto doesn't support dual SIM by the looks of it. Googling "Android Auto dual SIM" brings up lots of results of people complaining it doesn't work (or doesn't work any more).

Some earlier versions appear to have worked for a short time but it looks like Google broke that some 18 months ago. It worked back on Android Auto 7.1 (many many versions ago).

Edit: looks like it was added in November 2021 and broken by April 2022.

I just tried this on my dual SIM phone with the carlink app and Android Auto doesn't have a clue which SIM to call from unless I set a default.

Google don't want features that involve having to touch your handset as that defeats the purpose of the app. So it's no surprise they don't let you select which contact you want to call via the handset.

I also tested this on my partners car (with genuine Android Auto, not a Chinese head unit) and dual SIM doesn't work there either unless I set a default SIM for calling.

I have a Xiaomi phone which doesn't always play the best with Android Auto so it wouldn't surprise me if that plays a factor
[FYT Android Head Units] Whatsaname:
Thanks for trying it on yours and the clarification. As I had seen that it was apparently fixed a couple of years ago I naturally assumed it should still work.

The remember selection is available but that doesn't make a difference either.

Short sighted of them if deliberate removal of option as I will have to make a call out by touching my phone. Less safe than one tap on the big screen In front of me...

So I thought Android 14 was supposed to bring a native webcam mode but this doesn't seem to be the case? Is it a vendor customisation thing?

In which case does anyone have any suggestions on how I can use my 1 V main camera as a webcam for my PC?

[Introductions] AsusAnnihilator:
I'm someone who is just getting into rooting devices. I'm pretty new when it comes to smart phones, most of my time has been spent working on computers and laptops and one day, the pile of old phones I had was starting to look real nice. For a while I've just been lurking the forums, and going through threads to find information on how to root my devices. I recently even rooted my Asus z01kd, but ended up bricking it during my Kali Nethunter install (which is why I decided to name myself the AsusAnnihilator). Joke usernames aside, I'd love to learn how to root smart phones and get custom roms on them properly so I can have some more electronics to tinker with.

I previously found a library on github that can get mac addresses via netlink, but after Android 11, this method doesn't work due to selinux limitations (log: avc nlmsg_readpriv denied, class netlink_route_socket). But after flashing magisk boot, this method takes effect again and will not report avc denied. This method seems to check for the presence of magisk.

I have studied magisk for a long time and have not found out what causes it. Does anyone know what causes it?

[Asus Zenfone 4 (2017) Questions & Answers] AsusAnnihilator:
I have this left over phone I decided I'd root because I needed a mobile version of kali Linux and I though the rootless way was too restrictive of its features and I wanted to learn hands on how the operating system worked in a phone. So I go through a few steps on the XDA forums, I get the bootloader unlocked, I make a new boot.img with Magisk, and flash it with the minimal ADB and fastboot. All is good so far, so I move on to getting kali installed, I use the SDK dev tools from Android to get TWRP running, then I go to flash Disable_Dm-Verify_ForceEncrypt_11.02.2020 and my phone got stuck on the Zenfone loading screen. I decide to go into fastboot and format the internal storage to ext4fs. Big mistake, and there's no more operating system or anything on my phone and it boots into fastboot by default. I can still load into twrp thank god, and I tried sideloading and flashing kali nethunter lite but I get the error message "Your data partition appears to be empty. Please complete the Android setup wizard before installing Kali Nethunter!" This is my first time truly getting this deep into the software of a phone, and I have plenty experience with computers and Linux, but phones are a whole new world for me, and I think this will be a really good learning experience. If anyone has any idea of what I can do it'd be helpful, thanks!

[FYT Android Head Units] Whatsaname:
Hi , bought the HU and additional Add ons. They didn’t mention that the Camera, Phone, DAB+, Tire pressure monitor all use a USB port…. I can only see 2 so they suggested a hub however i had read on a post from a Toyota forum that it didn’t work.

if i were to get one can anyone point me in the direction of one that works so i can have all the above working at the same time.

Also the cables that came with the unit includes a 4 pin cable with a long black connection/casing on the end. EKIY Autoradio Store said “This is decoding the original car USB function”. Is this then a USB that I could adapt the end to be USB port? Or is this cable something to do with more up to date cars. Mine is old 2005 previa.
[FYT Android Head Units] samuelcseto:
Could you share the image of the end? 4 pins suggest regular USB 2.0 connection. Power, ground, data+, data-. Can't answer the hub question, I thought it works as hubs should work on android units 🤷‍♂️
[FYT Android Head Units] Whatsaname:
See images.

Re hub. I've not tried as I don't have a hub but on looking on another site it seemed that it just charges but not able to see devices.

Just wanted to know if anyone has had success with a hub.
[FYT Android Head Units] j0hn83:
My unit has 3 USB ports.

1 x USB via the 4pin connector in the rear.

2 x USB via the 6 pin connector on the rear.

I use an adapter on the 4 pin that uses my cars original USB port. It looks like this is what EKIY have sent you for your car. If it doesn't fit your car you can simply buy a 4 pin to USB connector.

I run an Anker USB 3.0 hub from 1 of the USB ports coming from the 6 pin connector. I have my DAB+ and my USB DVR connected via the hub.

It looks identical to the model in the attached image. I believe it does not support charging.
[FYT Android Head Units] Whatsaname:
Thanks. I don't suppose you have a picture of what that looks like. My 6 pin usb adapter only has 4 wires I think. Are the two wired into the same 6 pins?
[FYT Android Head Units] j0hn83:
I've attached the pin diagram for most FYT 7862 units.

D is the 4 pin USB port (1 usb port)

E is the 6 pin USB port (2 usb ports)
[FYT Android Head Units] Whatsaname:
Thanks I will have a look.

So you have another pin out for the main black harness connector. As this may also lead to me finding my original.

This image is of my original satnav cd, reverse camera, radio. Toyota previa 2005.

Only the ones marked in pen were plugged into my car. So the 4pin one next to the right of no4 had nothing in it but the camera worked. So must go somewhere else in this radio.
[FYT Android Head Units] j0hn83:
The 4 pin connector goes in the new EKIY and the other end of it connects to whatever was plugged in to "port 1" on the original Toyota head unit.

That's certainly how I see things from your image.

That would enable any original USB port in the car.
[FYT Android Head Units] Whatsaname:
Sorry I've mixed my post up. The image for the FYT7862 black harness port was so I can find my original REVERSE CAMERA cables.

Actually the port 1 is not the same connection as that black one I have pictured a bit earlier.

But if you have any other pin outs for the fyt7862 that would be great. I have no information for this unit except some poor videos sent by the supplier and are blurry and too fast to see what they are doing.

Give me a manual anyday 🙂
[FYT Android Head Units] j0hn83:
Nothing you have posted helps me identify your reverse camera unfortunately. I don't have your car.

The image you posted is of the 4 pin usb cable that connects to the EKIY with what EKIY believe to be your units usb port on the other end.

The EKIY reverse port is the 10 pin port on the rear of the EKIY.

EKIY should have supplied you with a 10 pin cable with a yellow rca type adapter labelled something like camera or CAM VIN.

Then an additional cable that connects from the yellow rca to your original camera.

A quick look online and the 4 pin on the rear of your OLD Toyota does look similar to some of the Toyota camera adapters but that's definitely not the 4 pin EKIY have sent.

If the 4 pin on the Toyota was never connected but the camera worked that suggests it isn't the camera port? Especially if you have no such 4 pin wire coming from the rear of your dash
[FYT Android Head Units] Whatsaname:
Yes, I'm hoping that I (not you) can identify it with more information from the any additional pin outs that exist. You have kindly supplied some from the HU. just wondered if you had more. Sorry for confusion

Yes it is a cable that matches nothing I have/need BUT because the seller mentioned it was a usb, I was wondering if I could change the black end to a female usb port and plug in somewhere else on the HU (and gaining a usb) . Perhaps I am being naive.

Anyway since you have supplied the pin outs showing usb-dp2 and usb-dn2 then maybe I can make a new cable up to utilise these pins and give me 3 usb connectiona as you have.

I don't know if I can make the twin headed usb cable for the 6pin puts. As that's what I am guessing you have.(I don't know what it looks like or the correct wiring)

Yes, as I do not have such a wire coming from rear of dash I am assuming it's somewhere else on my cars harness. In the other plugs I took out. If I had such a cable (terminated with the correct end) then I was simply assuming it may have gone to the one I identified.

Unfortunately the old unit stopped working so there is no way I can test which plug was which by unplugging one at a time from the old radio.

Anyway I think I hijacked my own post by asking about the camera...

Your thoughts are appreciated. Again, sorry for confusion.
[FYT Android Head Units] j0hn83:
There's loads of places that sell the 6 pin to dual usb connectors, or 4 pin to 1 x usb.

I've purchased the Anker 4 port ultra SIM 3.0 data hub.

It works fine with all the other peripherals so that's good. It's not what I had read but perhaps things have changed since those posts we read. Thanks again
[FYT Android Head Units] Kevheadunit:
Slightly in keeping with the thread.

Fitted a dual flush usb hub so no wire draped across the dash or console.See pic.

Can charge a phone on one socket,presumably the 6 pin one.

Could I use a splitter cable and make both sockets charge capable?

I would still have the 4 pin outlet from the HU for another hub.

Real question is,how many phones,memory sticks etc.or other add on peripherals can a head unit deal with?

Thank you for any information.
