I just shelled out about $900 for a really nice Pioneer AVH-X5700BHS in dash DVD, Sirius and what I looking for specificly was the ability to utilize the Mirorlink or AndriodAuto orAppRadio Live - whatever. I spent countless hours on the phone with the salesmanager from Crutchfield, oh before I forget- This is the second radio I have been sent because they keep telling me my S5 will work and do as shown. I am a starving student so very penny I dont spend on school, I put into my car/hobby/girlfriend - whatever.lol So here is where im at after watching and reading everything I could on what to do, I thought before jumping into just rooting my phone from an unknown source I would ask a community who knows this phone inside and out.
The Phone: Samsung Model SM-G900V
Android Version: 5.o
Kernel Version: 3.4.0
Any additional information will gladly be given
From a Youtube video of a guy with the same S5 was controlling his pioneer deck, being able to utilize EVERYTHING that the product is claimed to do, however he said he had to upload a root (didn't give name of source) and dropped his firmware to the 4.4.2, furthermore he said he needed to revise his Kernel to 3.4.0 - so that in his screenshot of his phone after his build number he stated it needed to read " SE for Android Status - permissive. Furthermore he said in order to utilize Screen Mirroring he had to download chrome cast, I couldn't understand why and that is why I am going to attach a link for anyone that is interested or can help!
I appreciate any and all help and or suggestions at this point - God Bless Jon Proctor San Diego Ca

Hi
Just so you know , there is a possibility that rooting your phone might not help your case.
According to these threads.

Stock Mirrorlink on lollipop devices has compatibility issues.
Maybe you can try this application first before rooting.

Again I am not very sure that rooting has "helped" a person to connect to a radio when the radio software doesn't support the device.

Hello,
I am a user of Wave 525 and we are working on a mod called Melior for it.Its first version is going to release within a week but I have a different plan for future.Seeing Galaxy Y running some crazy cool games,I thought if my Wave could also do such things.The problem is that our community doesn't have experts who can port android.My team contains some mid level devs and we are trying to port android but the problem is we don't know what we should do to begin with the project.
I want some experts to help and guide us in the way of porting android.We would really appreciate any type of help from this community..Wave 525's processor speed is unknown till now but it is expected to be around 350-500MHz,some sources claim 500 and some claim 312 etc.Its internal memory is 283MB.All the specs of the phone is more than many android devices like Spice MI270 etc.
Please help us in this project and guide us the way that we should follow..
Regards,
Centurian
Hello,
I am a VERY long time lurker....I had the XDA (one, both the early release low spec one & the propper one) the xda2, lobster700tv & a few others along the way which you have helped me with without even knowing. Currently I have a samsung glaxy tab (one) gtp1000 - running Kanged gummy/paranoid android...
I am hoping as my searches have been fruitless (maybe I'm a bad searcher using the wrong terms?) some one here could point me in the correct place for my next question(s)* pretty please?
I have on order a Lenovo A8-50 tablet ... it comes in three variants A5500-HV (I want but probably not what is going to turn up) A5500-H (think mine is this) and Lenovo A5500-F. The F is wifi only, the HV is wifi & 3d for data/voice calls. The H is wifi + 3g for data. it also connects to some 2g networks.
I would like to make voice calls on it...& need to know if I can just install a dialer app as it has 2g, or upgrade the rom unofficially...in which case can I use the same rom as the lenovo a850 phone (note the lack of - ) or is there a generic data tablet crack that someone can show me please?
I am able to follow instructions and have some skills.
Thank you all kindly for your help or honest 'bog off's

Hi, There is no information specific to your device at the moment on XDA.
I have found a very good resource with a net search... I can't link you to it - it is the official Lenovo site where it appears you will find an answer to your question.
forums.lenovo.com
All the best !!
thank you

Thanks - I'm glad I've not missed something. I was sure I'd lookeed there but maybe not hard enough...I seam to have found that the firmware is the only difference & that is other countries 3G voice is turned on...I guess uploading the official rom in russian in my answer...google translate better be right that 'it is not fatal, machine will not start - you must re-sew'
awaiting post for toy & then diving in - wish me luck!
thanks again for taking the time to reply.

Indeed, I wish you all the best- something tells me you will do just fine!!
I hope you enjoy all your experiences on XDA as well.

My Nexus 7 crashed while traveling in South America. Found a cheap replacement locally - a tablet sold mainly in Europe and South America. Model MJ20A

Build number full_gs702c-userdebug 4.2.2 JDQ39 eng.root.20140417
I cannot find any way to root it so I can use my usual rooted utilities and ubuntu.. Would appreciate any pointers - coverage of this tablet is poor to non-existent - but I need to use it until I return to the US this summer.
Thanks Anthony
Hi,
I can't find anything relevant on XDA for your device. You can try one of the generic root methods at the top of the list here,
XDA Root Directory
If that doesn't help, you will need to ask for help here ,
> Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Also, it's very unlikely you will find Ubuntu for your device... A developer would have to port it and it's doubtful that will happen. Don't flash versions of it that aren't designed for your device, or you could be in a mess. Also, unless you find the factory firmware for your device.... If anything goes wrong tinkering with it, you'll have no way to reflash your device with factory firmware. I'd be very careful about what you do to it.
Just my 2 cents. ?
Good luck!
Rooting Majestic MJ20A TAB mini 7
Thanks Darth. I came across GNURoot and am able to get Debian Wheezy to work enough to let me use Linux utilities I like. I shall keep my eye open for rooting that will allow use of many root enabled programs I purchased on Google Play. Gretings from Vilcabamba Ecuador where one finds a goodly number of Canadians from the northern climes - here for nice weather and a cheaper life. One newcomer from Galgary told me it was the first time in his life he took a cold shower. I have taken the Artic route from Britain a number of times on my way to California. Northern Canada from the air is majestic and immense.. Stay warm.

Hey guys New to the site.
Purchased the HAM2 from Consumer Cellular at Sears as a replacement to a broken phone.
I noticed on my phone its a B147 MT2-L03 (JB 4.3). My goal is to change it to B148 to hopefully snag the updates as i saw on the Hauwei site the 147 isnt on the list.
I have moved my phone from Cons. Cell. to ATT.
I am handy on a PC but this phone stuff is killing me. I have looked here and all over Google.
I have followed steps using Rooting, TWRP ADB etc. 99% of the time it says cant find updates, incorrect name of some sort The upgrade package is not detected, the list goes on. the other 1% it just stares at me...
The number of files I have downloaded amounted to around 10gb of .apps etc.
I have even tried doing backups from other peoples phones.
Used steps by Joshua Bass and Geek Redneck etc on youtube. and alot of the steps on this web site. I am at my wits end.
Thank you for reading this!

Hello there,
The question is really simply, i have this really old tablet (you will say why you do not buy a new one? answer is simple i have to give this to a child, so this will be a battle tablet lol)
So i was wondering there is any android version that already have games for kids up to 5years old ? in case can you suggest me the name ?
In case there is no one like this, let me ask based on the current tablet "spec" wich version is the best ? Finger crossed for find something that work with play store, cause the current version do not allow me to use it anymore.
Click for the spec comes from mobilespec as site (hope there is no problem with link and such) in case Moderator forgive me and remove the link !!!!
I-INN tablet PRO 9.0
Thank you !
