It is my first post here, so forgive me any mistakes. I'm a newbie to Android.
I've been drifting throughout the Internet and XDA-developers forum to find a solution to my problem, but I can't find it. You are my only hope. Even original support can't help. I bought a non-branded Android device for my car in April 2014, specifically this one: (happyshoppinglife[.com] / honda-civic-android-autoradio-dvd-navigation-with-dtv-wifi-3g-p-1168[.html]). Since then I can't connect to the Internet using 3G modem.
It seems to have some tailor-made Android version, since normal tablets don't have a DVD or FM radio or wheel-buttons.
Recently the manufacturer/developer upgraded the Android to a version 4.4.2 (chinabatemon [.com] / cargpss / android-update-442.rar)
Precisely it is:

Currently I have 3g modems: Huawei E220 (VID 12d1:1003, PID 12d1:1003), Huawei K3770 (VID 12d1:14d1, PID 12d1:14c9), ZTE MF626 (VID 19d2:2000, PID 19d2:0031), Huawei E230 (VID 12d1:1003, PID 12d1:1003)
Wifi works fine, but I need 3g..
[EDIT]
I have no root access:
1|u0_a10@SNT-210: / $
after doing "su":
u0_a10@SNT-210: / $
I'm probably unable to root the device because I cannot connect to it (I got a cable: USB type A - USB type A, but it didn't work: no response from Android device nor from my laptop). After clicking "Build number" once (in the "About CarDVD" menu) it shows "No need, you are already a developer", but there are no "developer options" in the Settings menu.
There is the app "3g reconnect" already installed in the system, but after I connect a modem (E230, E220 or K3770) with working SIM (no PIN) in "Plus" (MCC 260 MNC 01) its LED is blinking green, and then blue after a while (one blink per 3-5 sec) but the system remains unchanged. The support (the Chinese via chat, not very nice experience talking: an hour waiting for response) said I .
I tried PPP Widget to help me, as well as Android Terminal and Slick USB 2 Serial Terminal.
I set PPP widget to start manually, set APN to "internet", left number to dial unchanged, no user, no password. After booting without 3g modem, PPP Widget starts and I connect the modem to a USB port. I click on the PPP icon, choose my E230 modem (12d1:1001) and I click connect. PPP Widget searches for the port and tries to connect.
When I turn on logging, portcheck.log says:
== START LOG ==
PPP Widget version 1.3.3
USB_ModeSwitch log from {date}
Raw args from udev: 1-1.1/portcheck
using top device dir /sys/bus/usb/device

ep_81 has interrupt transfer type

--> No interrupt interface below me
{something was here}
== END LOG ==
When I check the Android Settings (Mobile status) there is:
Network: unknown
Signal strength: 2147483647 dBm 255 asu
Mobile network type: Unknown
Service state: Out of service
IMEI: {my SIM's IMEI}
IMEI SV: Unknown
IP address: Unavailable
WiFi MAC address: {some MAC address}
When I turn Android Terminal it goes:
lsusb:
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 05e3:0608
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0bda:8176
Bus 001 Device 007: ID 12d1:1003
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 04e8:6860
Sometimes There is Bus 001 Device 005 instead of 007 by 12d1:1003
When I try to use Slick USB 2 Serial Terminal it connects to the modem and answers all the AT commands:
ATI
Huawei
E230
Rev. 11.104.20.00.00
IMEI...
+GCAP: +CGSM +DS +ES
AT+CSQ
15.99
AT^SYSINFO
2,3,0,5,1,,4
AT+COPS=?
(1,"Plus","PLUS","26001",0), (2,"Plus","PLUS","26001",2) ... {and other}
AT+COPS?
0,2,"26001",2
I can swich the modem's mode:
AT^U2DIAG=0
the default was AT^U2DIAG=257
After switching to AT^U2DIAG=0 the modem seems to be recognised by lsusb as 12d1:1001
I tried to connect manually:
AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","internet"
ATD *99***1#
.. and it returned CONNECTED
but when I went back to the home screen and tried to check if there is Internet access (I turned on Chrome), there was no Internet access, but I have to revise this once more.
