Finally! An Android Rear-View Mirror with sufficient storage!

crodps · Jul 10, 2017

Hi guys!
As I've read, and also experienced myself, one of the big issues these Android Rearview mirrors have is that they only come with either 512mb or 1gb or system storage.
That leaves you practically unable to install many applications (or any if you have the 512 version).
Thankfully, I've found this mirror that finally comes with a decent system storage of 16gb!
Check it out:

MediaTek 8382 Quad core @ 1.3 Ghz
1GB Ram
16GB System Storage
Mali 400 MP
SD up to 32GB
1280x480 6.86 Screen
1080p DVR

I have this mirror as well. It's nice but.........

I also have this mirror. It works pretty much as advertised but, the data connection is garbage! Most of the time I get good signal strength but no service. When I do get service, the best speed that I've gotten is >0.20 Mbps!! I'm not sure if it's the firmware or hardware that's causing the problem. I've tried it all over So Cal and parts of Vegas with the same result. I'm thinking about opening it up to see if I can make improvements.

Model number = cm84
Build number = LRX21M dev-keys
Custom build version = ALPS.LO.MP2.V1.9_CM84_V1.7.6
android VERSION 5.0

Has anyone gotten a steady data (not wifi) connection with this device??

I'm having the same issue DaFlash. I tried setting up FreedomPop but never get any data. I am able to get 2G with my TMobile sim card but I need that for my phone. It would be great if someone had some advice on how to improve that. Thanks

I have an idea

so i thought id like to see if someone truly got in there, so we can make a rom that is capable of showing text messages and more stuff from the phone?. the prototype will then be pitched to california gov. as a solution for texting and driving.

not quite sure what you are seeing but I do know how to get it to show rear continuously,

tap driving video, settings(bottom right), auto exit preview, set to never exit preview.
now when you set the driving video to rear it will stay like that.

Help on my cm84

I need help with my android rear mirror model cm84. Need to reset it to factory settings since got stuck at boot - Android Upgrading Optimizing 1app of 1. Reset button wont work.

tweakradje · Nov 29, 2018

@silvertears
You can do that from TWRP if you have that installed. Wipe Data partition.

Or if you have ADB connection still working with USB cable you can do it from shell:

adb shell am broadcast -a android.intent.action.MASTER_CLEAR

Cheers

I flashed using this HD900 from 4pda.
Any advice on hiw to wake it up?
Thanks.

Did you use SP Flash tool?

Make sure you have the "Mediatek VCOM Preloader" port driver installed

The easiest way to reflash it is like this (general Mediatek method):

- unplug usb from your mirror
- start SP Flash tool
- load and select the image parts you want to flash (I only do boot and system)
- click the Donwload button
- plug in the usb cable from your PC into your mirror

Maybe you need to hold the switch on the mirror for 10+ seconds
Maybe you need to use a pin to press the reset button on the top/back of the mirror

SP Flash tool will recognize it and starts flashing

Had a lot of "bricked" devices in my life. Never a problem.

DON'T flash anything other than boot and system. Don't do LK and whatever you have. In 99,9% of the cases not necessary.

Yes I used Flash Tool to flash the firmware. Actually I have flashed firmware for this device several time but suddenly this time after flashing it never wake up again.

I will try to install Mediatek VCOM Preloader and flash again.

Thanks for your support.

Cheers,
