Recovery done with Android previous version, well done.
Now, GPS (tomtom) is not corrected with the software installed on the headunit.
But easytouch and android hack are still valid. So i can used the car everyday with waze, spotify...
How i can push on the SD the previous version (because the dealer has updated the SD card...).
How did you fix it,alt, print screen and u didn't work

Im having trouble getting into android settings through screensaver, is this the only way? I was able to get into the other menus
IMG_20220806_184152.jpg


And i dumped the log file. If i can help in anyway let me know.

Or should i just go ahead and update? Iv already got the file on a thumbdrive ready so just let me know.

Much appreciation,

The same problem. 2400 works only with the dealer mode

Does anyone know the recipe for engineering mode for the 2021 SantaFe Vietnam?
[sys.mtx.sw_version]: [TMF.VIE.SOP.A08.H.210416]
Hardware is Motrex MT2712.
I tried 7-3-1 2400, it is dealer Mode, but no luck with the engineer mode.
In advance thanks.
Jafangie

I can enter dealer mode with pass 2400 but how to enter engineering mode? anyone know the password?
Anyone found out more about this "only dealer" mode? Im trying to get into the engineering mode 😭

Still no luck getting into android settings though ive tried the 7taps and swaping the g40 libgnustl_shared.so file but it doesnt recognize it, im guessing since i have not done nav update yet.

The non nav unit has now been hacked!!!
I keep trying to follow the guide but cant finish the last step of compiling the zip. Everything is pretty straight forward it seems I hope someone here with a 21 or newer Elantra can do this and upload the firmware. Frustrating to be at the last step and cant finish :-(

Hello, i used to know a program that could crack zip passes but cannot recall its name. Here are a few options you can try though.
Considering that the password is long, any software will take ages. And there is no files to find partial matches inside this zip, to find a shortcut 😐

    Hi,

    Does anyone have any dea how to access engineering mode on my i40 Gen4 Unit with software ST.VFIA.EUR.E536.230920? I need to change amp modes but I cant seem to even get the password prompt to appear as of yet. Thanks.

    EDIT: I've managed to get the password screen to appear, it was on the storage info screen, 5 taps in the bottom left and then 1 tap in the bottom right, I mustn't have been tapping quite far enough into the corner. I'll have a try at getting the codes from the update file tomorrow and post back with any updates (if there are any).

    Ok, so the password seems to be 2504 and that gets me to an engineering menu but when I go to variant coding -> amp it gives me 3 options but wont let me select any of them, internal is selected but i need to change it to external. Anybody got any ideas? Am I in some sort of dealer mode and need a different passcode?

    Hi,
    Do any of you have a firmware file for HYUNDAI Kona Non-Nav e.g.: OS.EUR.SOP.V085 DAU_A etc?

    My radio is on loop: Making quickboot image I tried to upload the software from the Navi version, but some of the buttons do not work properly. I uploaded a copy of eMMC from another radio but I still have a boot loop.

    I need update files for version V085 from this or another radio without navi on the Mobis platform.
    Or some other software to fix my radio ;)

    There was no need to download software from another model!
    Now it is already DIFFICULT to repair.
    I'm not afraid of challenges, but sometimes I need a little help ;)
    Other software will allow me to get the boot.img file that I am missing, but it must be exactly version V085.

    Maybe qb_data_image will fix the boot loop error. I don't know how Quickboot works. I wonder if it could be turned off, because the radio reboots to the system for a few seconds, but after a while I get the message: QB System preparing.. and restart to Making Quickboot..

    I tried to create files from a copy of emmc, I created boot.img, recovery.img, splash.img, system.img, I have the lk.rom file from another version of the software. I encrypted everything and uploaded it from USB, but the boot loop still occurs.
    I tested another system, downloaded the emmc memory, created files and uploaded them from USB and everything is fine. I think that the emmc copy from another radio may be missing or damaged. That's why I need the original software ;)

    To access to the USB drive and install all the applications we need to install File Manager first!
    Go to All Menus -> Settings -> Screensaver, tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap, password - time on clock.
    Engineering mode -> All Applications -> Browser

    Just purchased a 2022 Telluride SX with the wide screen. Been reading this thread and noticing no one has found a way to get into engineering mode for these newer firmware, right?

    I would just like to side load some apps and be able to run them from the Kia main menu.

    If for some reason I am incorrect in that there’s no way to side load these newer widescreens then please do let me know. It’s Likely I may have scanned across a post or something that had that info.

    Thanks!

    Today on the Valentines day we have made a secret go public.
    We have been able to gain root access on the Gen5WIDE headunits from europe.

    with this hack you can grab and dump the whole system.
    extracts info, keys, decrypt files and perhaps create ur own custom fw.

    we provide this info for free, so people can share knowledge and new findings.

    Please be aware that this is mainly for devs and technical nerds and linux lovers. untill someone perhaps creates a more user friendly hack.

    Happy hunting

    Hi guys,
    On my Tucson (2018 - AA) I can only access the engineering mode where I don't...

    Update on another model thet does not allow the "full engineering menu":
    2018 Elantra SEL USA version.
    NO: Cannot access the engineering mode that enables app installations (7 taps over 3 points on settings/screensaver).
    YES. Can access the engineering mode from Settings/System Info (5 taps left - 1 tab right).

    Looking forward to the hero that finds out how to jailbreak these versions!!

    Now that we can sideload apps, is there any way to let Android auto work wirelessly?

    Inviato dal mio MI PAD 4 utilizzando Tapatalk

    Of course ! Just install Headunit Reloaded (4.6) on the car system.
    Set it with your phone name (SSID) used for wifi server, and leave IP blank (auto).

    The wifi mode of Headunit will automatically connect to Android Auto if this one is in developer mode and its server mode launched.

    Everything can be totally automatic, the phone can stay in the pocket. Android Auto appears on the main screen few seconds after the wifi connnection to the phone.
