Hi everyone,
Im new here so sorry if these questions seem a bit dumb but Im at a loss right now.
So I ordered this Hyundai (presumably) DVR, its fine and dandy all together for €120 but now if I want to use another DVR app instead of the one that comes with the thing they all crash. So I did a little research into all the menus and seems there is no camera system even installed (no idea how the app that comes with the thing even works without it) so my question is, is there a way to install somekind of an generic driver for the camera or just add some files into the system?
There are quite a few MTK files in the apps tab so I'm guessing it has something relevant to this discussion.
I know DVRs are not really the kind of things this site deals with but since its Android powered it was the best bet to ask here, maybe someone could help me out a little.
Any help is really highly appriciated! :fingers-crossed:

Just that question, thanks in advance.
No one?
I cannot belive that there is nobody who knows about this...
I've been app hunting since I got this phone... Haven't found anything like this. But I would like to try it myself However I'm sure it'd be a very ugly case of battery drain...
About that ugly powerdrain, yes you got a point. I even would like to try to write one app my own, but as it proved nearly impossible to get the sdk running on my one and only working computer - netbook with atom z520...
looks like my hardware is not enough, even the virtual device of the android sdk, won't start
Does anybody know any sdk for Android running native on the smartphone?

Well at least I have now some kind of virtual device running, but its nearly impossible to work with because it lacks installed live wallpaper and lags way much in time to be usable, is there maybe an open build server around?
I guess this question is wrong on this section therefore i only got one answer until now... somebody know a way to put this thread into android section?
Hi all,
I did a search through the forums, and maybe I just haven't leveled enough to know what I'm looking for.
I bought an e-book reader today ("the book" by Augen), and want to get Android on it. The OS it shipped with is terrible, and I picked it up on the super cheap so I'm not terribly worried about destroying it.
So, I tried a few stupid things that I kinda figured wouldn't work, like formatting through Windows. I'm not very well versed in the ways of Linux, which is another problem...
Could anyone give me a little guidance on where to start? Do I want to go all out and wipe the whole volume? Or is there a more appropriate way to approach this problem?
Update: The WiFi wasn't working so I dug around until I found the notice for their last firmware update. The unit is now partially bricked. Apparently, the update is a hit or miss. I can get into the usb flasher, but I can't access the actual device...
Hey guys
First let me say that I did try to look around the forums, but did not find anything relevant .. the search tool really isn't that great.
My parents, in all their wisdom, decided to go ahead and buy two "generic" android tablets whilst I was away at uni without asking for my advice.
Now had I known, I would have told them to stay the hell away from them, unfortunately I am now left with two annoying adults wanting me to make their tablets faster and better.
I am a pretty good programmer and am doing computer science at Uni, so I though i might try to root/flash a custom ROM onto those tablets myself (i know nobody else will ever do it). However I have never touched anything 'android dev' related (apart from obviously rooting and flashing my own HTC Desire) so I really have no idea about where to start.
This is where you lovely people come in: I would be oh so grateful if someone could put me in the right direction as to whatI should be looking into in order to root, and eventually flash a rom onto a new device that no other dev has ever touched before. I'm guessing that if people are doing it for mainstream devices, its entirely possible to do on the tablets I have, I just need to know where to start looking.
Thanks a bunch in advance guys, please don't be to harsh on me <3
I do not know if this will help you or not, but I also am trying to flash a ROM for a "generic" android device. Given that mine is a phone and not a tablet, I do not know if this would work for you or not therefore I'd recommend doing prior research; however, I was able to root my device using the z4root app.
As far as I know, the next step would be installing a recovery (such as clockwork recovery in ROM Manager) in case something goes wrong. I'm not certain about how one would go about porting that software, but their are instructions posted on the developer's website. I don't know enough about the process so I can't really give anymore input; however, if you find any other information, be sure to let me know as well
definitely will thanks!
I've got one problem with one of the tablets already .. it never came with a usb cable, and does not have a micro usb, min usb or anything that I may know as a port, it only has some kind of proprietary port that strangely looks like an iPod/iPhone/iPad port but I can't be sure as I do not own an ipodcable to try it out .. is it in any way possible that a generic tablet could have an apple connector on it?

I can just tell you from my experience using a Ciphone Pro (IP4 knock-off running android). It came with a cable that looks very similar to an iphone cable (my girlfriend and I cannot tell the difference between them). I can plug my phone into either my cable or her Iphone 3GS cable to charge; however, when she once plugged her phone into my cable, her Iphone said the charge was not compatible. Because the android phone didn't display any prompts when connected to the iphone adapter, I assume that these generic devices are compatible with it. I hope this helps, but you could also check all of the iphone cables you have lying around because maybe one of them actually came with the device

One thing that I've noticed is that there are quite a few "generics" out there that are actually rebadged versions of each other. If your tablets are one, then if you can find the line of tablets that they belong to, then you might be able to find a development community behind that line of tablets. If that's the case, then there might already be recoveries/roms available for you to flash onto these tablets. I'm not sure of a great resource but androidforums.net might help.

I would like to marry you Sir. Thanks to your advice I looked around, using the generic pads specifications, and ended up finding out that they were just "rebranded" flytouch epad. From there, I was able to find compatible ROMs for both tablets on http://www.slatedroid.com/ and http://techknow.freeforums.org.
I know have root, google apps and a nice speed increase on both of'em
Thank you very much for the help

Might I ask how you came to this conclusion? I'm trying to see if I can install custom ROMs on my phone and I believe that it is more than likely that there is a compatible version floating around somewhere. I'm not exactly sure what I should be searching for, so if you have any pointers it would be greatly appreciated

All I did was look at the specs of my device (ram, processor, screen size and internal memory being the big ones) and just tried to look for any other device with the same specs. It took a lot of googleing though, so be ready to search through useless search results for a while.

Awesome! I'm glad you were able to find what you were looking for. I must, however, decline the offer as I am already married and polygamy is illegal here.
Hey Guys,
As I mentioned in the title I am an uber noob when it comes to any sort of customization. I am travelling for 8 months, so I decided to pick up the HTC One S (first smart phone) instead of a laptop in Beijing because I thought it would be more useful. However, I'm already experiencing many difficulties.
Everything is in Chinese and I want English apps, but the Chinese app market loaded onto the phone has nothing in English. I have been searching through these forums trying to root my phone and flash a new rom onto it in hopes of accessing Google Play (I might need a VPN, too). However, some of the sites where I need to download software from (mediafire in particular) are inaccessible from where I am. How should I proceed?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! (and please in fairly simple terms for my noobish brain to handle or something I'd be able to search online)
Try to change the language in settings!

Before you try and unlock/root/flash your device, make sure it is an actual HTC One S, not some clone, and make sure you know whether you have an S3 or S4 model.

Does your phone look like one of these? In that case it does not have much in common with the One S versions in the rest of the world and you should absolutely not flash anything from xda. Even if it looks like the "normal" One S do as Jobo mentioned and pay attention to if it is a Z520e ("S4") or Z560e ("S3") and only flash stuff made specifically for your version. There should be a model number on the box.
Hey guys first of all thank you for clicking on this, I have not been active in long while since life has been happening but I have an issue and I have no idea where else to ask since you guys are the savviest people I know on the internet. I have a Sony camera (DSC-H300) and its an okay camera its got regular batteries (bought rechargeable) and I have no way of connecting it to a computer. My question is, is there any software that would allow me to connect it to the computer and extract the firmware to first of all look at it, Ive got no experience adjusting or modifying firmware but perhaps if the starts align ill be able to do something to allow it to stream to my computer when connected via USB or maybe a program that knows how to tap in OR is the hardware not all there to let me do that. I am planning to launch a youtube channel and having a camera with a preview on my screen on the computer and it storing directly to the computer would really speed things up. I know its a one in a million chance but I just think its silly for it not to be an option since, after all it is a camera. I appreciate all suggestions just dont tell me to buy something new because thats clearly not an option, Thanks!

Hi there,
Since that's a camera I don't think you'll get many answers on XDA (it can happen but that is related to your luck)
I would advice you to go on a specialised forum or some other websites that will be more likely to learn you something regarding cameras .
Have a great day
