Hi
I cant get video`s to work on video google, they dont show up when the page loads, plus i hit the download button and theres no response, also when i go to play an internet flash game, the message comes up "PLEASE NOTE : To view this page properly, please enable Javascript and update your flash player.
Now as far as i know i have the latest flash player, so where do i enable javascript, didnt find it anywhere in IE options? I jsut assumed this sort of stuff would just work onm WM5..
Thanks
Sorry to disappoint you, but this kind of stuff - namely JavaScript - does not work even on WM5. It simply isn't there and to the best of my knowledge there is no way to add it.
So for now any site that uses JavaScript (I suspect you have the same problem with google videos) is off limits for PIE.
Right....
Bit of a bummer then ..
Any chance it`ll be dev`d in the future, seems like a bit of a gaping hole if you ask me
Many thanks..
i'd sugest looking into another browser then PIE
ms dont have much compatition left in their eyes
and they dident invent javascripts so they are not
likely to promote and support it unless they have to
any suggestions please?
I tried Minimo to no avail..
Thanks
After reading many posts across various forums and buried in the comments of threads spanning many years--I've summed up moving from Verizon to Page Plus in one document. This is the 2014 definitive step-by-step guide to manually programming the 4G LTE Verizon HTC Thunderbolt Smartphone for use with Page Plus Cellular (PPC). This guide might also serve for Kitty Wireless and other PPC resellers. Topics include: (1) Porting your phone number from VZW to PPC (2) Checklist of everything you'll need to succeed (3) Device driver and software installation (4) Configuration & DIY Free Programming (5) Activation (6) PPC Account & Plan Finalization
I hope this benefits anyone still using this excellent smartphone. I gave up my unlimited data on VZW and moved to PPC after realizing I mostly use WiFi these days and was not taking full advantage of unlimited data on a 4G LTE network. Saving $696 per year is a great incentive. I give credit and reference all of the various posts that were summed up. Rather than attempt to reformat the document as a forum post I've made it available on Google Drive. I hope that's fine. I've attached it to this post as a DOCX. Hopefully one or both of these methods works.

Thanks a lot for the updated guide. I was hoping to use this to turn on data on my Thunderbolt (voice already works).
However, I am stuck on the part about connecting the phone to the PC. My laptop is on Windows 8.1 Pro. No matter which HTC sync version/drivers I use, the laptop does not recognize the phone.
I tried downloading an older version of HTC Sync, but that did not work either.
I experienced the same setback and, instead of troubleshooting further, used an old Windows XP laptop. See if you can find access to an older machine for the purpose of programming your phone. Perhaps a family member, friend, neighbor, cybercafe, or yard sale.
Before XP was EOL Microsoft offered a downloadable kit to install XP within Windows 7 etc as a virtual machine for running older applications. I'm not sure if USB devices were accessible within the VM. Another option might be WINE from within Linux but I've never attempted that either. The easiest route is to find a 32-bit machine you can borrow.
There may be a simple 64-bit driver workaround but I'm not yet aware of what that might be. When I have some free time, I'll explore the 64-bit driver dilemma and if I'm successful I'll update the documentation.

I was able to follow the instructions and get the voice working. Many thanks for this detailed instruction.
using DFS to change the phone settings works fine on non-9k port. but on 9k port, lots of the parameter was "read only", not allow to change.
I must have a sim card in the phone, otherwise it will stuck in dailing. Incoming calls/txt was first not working at all, but suddenly working and working since. i would guess it has to do i was calling when someone called me, but i have no proof.
Separate question: I am not able to use "settings->software upgrade->check new" to upgrade my phone from gingerband to icecream. Pageplus said they don't support and their OTA will ruin 4g phone. do you know any alternative way?
stupid question: i activated in diag+modem mode. Now everything completes, when the phone restarts, it still do that. do i need to disable it?
Halp!
FIRST A HUGE THANK YOU!
your walk through combined with the one where I found the link to yours both let me set up my phone after a friend accidentally factory reset my store flashed phone lol.
From never flashing a phone to scrounging up the software and getting my phone set up and working without spending a dime!:good:
Now that I have a better understanding I am hoping you guys with more experience can help me figure out shy I'm stuck on 1x
everything else is working except 3g when i boot the phone i see 3g for about a milisecond then just 1x
No matter how many times I enter the "vzw" passwords for PAP, PPP, etc and write them to the phone they are gone when I read the phone.
Everything else is there, [email protected] sticks but not the passwords.
I was given a car stereo for a present . best present ever .
Its a duel operating system android wince
It was all working correctly for about a month then the android part became faulty.
it comes up with a error message .
bonovoHandle has stopped . when this comes up after booting the screen dulls

So,the last thing you should do is connect the carpad to your computer and wait the software connect it.
if not ,you can plugin the power cord and press the reset button for 5 sec to enter the flash mode.

I also have a Newsmy Carpad II on a Ford Focus. It also have WinCE and Android box.
And no: the customer service is not able to answer your questions. They can only sell but not follow the customers.
I dont know chinese, and with translators I cannot register to their forum /bbs (btw how did you? I saw your post)
My systen have many bugs ( FM radio RDS, not functioning, volume that sometimes raise to full or drop to zero after a single tap) and now the backlight of dash is disappeared.
At the beginning I had contact with skype, now they are not aswering at all..

I'm sorry to hear about these issues, these Carpad II units look very interesting but there is very little information out there about them. Anyone with one of these units, could you answer these questions:
1) Do steering wheel controls work in Android, or only in WinCE?
2) Can you listen to the radio (WinCE I assume) and run an Android app simultaneously? So say listen to the radio and also run the Waze gps app with voice prompts. How does it handle the audio mixing?
3) What is the boot time? From ignition to radio playing. I have a pure android unit now but the boot time is slow. I understand WinCE is much faster, and I hope the radio would start playing while the android system is still booting up.
Thanks!

The unit is very interesting and powerful, the fact you can't talk with the support is ridiculous because sometimes a problem can go away in 5 minutes of skype talks..
1) Only in WInCE. But not sure of your question.
2) Yes you can. WinCE have different volume levels (media, radio, phone, video ..) but all the audio in Android environment is streamed in the MEDIA channel of WinCE. You can still control single volumes in Android.
This is not so bad, but there is only a problem: music stream doesn't drop down during speech of navigators in Android.
3) Boot time is longer than OEM equipment of corse. First to be ready is WinCE with all the media and canbus sections. Radio (if on before last power off) start immediately. Android double the time. I use it for Sygic Navigator, and Google Maps navigation (the best because always up to date and with real time traffic)
Dont buy one

I found some usefull links for car pad owners but mine is not accepting firmware upgrade . I get the pink box but then I get red tex telling me firmware will not load error. and pink box never flashes yellow I am thinking I have the wrong firmware version. I will try others . downloads are slow and often time out so I have to download again . will keep trying.
I cant tell what firmware I need , I don't have the box anymore and it never came with English instructions so I tossed them away. All I can tell you is written inside the pure android box is this. AD3188-JB4.22-CARPAD-1.0.0 THEN IN PEN IT HAS -79 . thankyou for your help

no change.. newsmy car stereo is no good.
I managed somehow to subscribe and post 3/4 questions on their chinese forum.
I obtained a couple of posts from another user (useful for the specific topic), and stop. No one from Newsmy answered in a week.
At this point I just have to hope that the Carpad will never break, and take back my unanswered questions.
For this reasons I strongly discourage anyone from outside China to buy a product newsmy.
In Italy I am a moderator in a forum community of the same vehicle of mine.
There was a lot of waiting for the reviews on this product, others would follow me to the purchase of Carpad probably. Now it will not happen.

What's wrong with your products？I am summer from Newsmy,maybe i can help you.

Hi Summer,
my unit came from tradesolution.hk,
images and serial number in attachment.
I have differents issues, here are some:
RADIO SECTION->
- 80% of the FM stations I get them in MONO;
- FM "AF" function, is not funcional. I travel to the same cities every days, and with others radio I can keep the same radio stations, with CARPAD I lose the signal. Before I listened always two or three stations and frequencies changed without me lose the signal. With Carpad not happen.
- RDS never received any stream, even if the symbol appears on display;
(FM OEM antenna is connected, in fact, by disconnecting the cable, I do not find any station)
- I cannot scan FM with binded phisical key: only via touchscreen, and this is really useless;
OTHERS->
- I do not have the rear parking sensors, but I have aftermarket rear camera: I correctly get the image on the unit, but without sensors I get a continuos annoying beep and I cannot disable in any way. make a software way to DISABLE it;
- the quality of the microphone in a phone call is very very LOW.. make a software way to allow the use of an auxiliary microphone;
- backlight sometime is off, although in the rest of the dashboard is turned on;
...
I have other problems to list, but for the moment I stop. let's see what happens.
I consider regrettable the fact that the service contact on skype has abandoned me without answer. And from your forum you have locked my account after I asked a few questions.

Hello
I bought a newsmy carpad 2 for my ford focus 1.6 tdci 2010. Unfortunately I became no support from newsmy, althought I wrote severals mails: no answer, no help, nothing. I' m very disappointed! The newsmy carpad 2 is a very good product, but without support from producer Newsmy!!
I explain here my problem one more time with the hope that someone may help me!
I have a problem with the Newsmy Ford Mondeo,Focus 08,S-Max Android 4.2 Capacitive Touch Screen Car Pad 2. The serial number of the DVD Player is: SN E5PCF0018HQ0010 (overseas stock).
I installed the DVD Player. Unfortunately the wheel controls and the backlight of the player don't work. I asked a technician about it. He told me that the DVD player must be configured with the newest firmware of the player and with the software vehicleconfig otherwise the can-bus module of the player cannot work properly with my car. My car is a ford focus 1.6 tdci 2010.
Somebody can help me please??
Thanks in advance!

We can also take one answer at a time if you want. For example we can begin with:
Is Newsmy really interested in take care of overseas customers, or is a "sell and forget" company?
We really take care of your problem, yoy can add my skype for problems: summer_352.

Upgraded Android with instruction and image file given:
is it normal ?
I have lost Android Box??
:edit
NEVERMIND! Upgrade succeeded!
This 4.4 Android version is beautiful configured this way on the carpad and I can see a better UI and user experience.
Good work for this upgrade.
In the WinCE section instead, there is still an open issue regarding RDS and its related AF (alternate frequencies) function. This function allow user to travel km and km keeping the same Radio Station tuned. This function is responsible to scan in the background for alternative frequencies of the selected station and transparently switch.
Unfortunately carpad is currently sold as "RDS enabled" but is not fully enabled.
Hope in the future the manufacturer will update this part too.
Many thanks to Summer.
I am going to pass your skype contact other clients I know who are not fully satisfied with the product. I hope you will want to give them some good advice.
