even i'm searching for the same, it seems like they have restricted various android functionalities. Also settop box doesn't have any reset button, so we can't boot it into recovery mode as well. I tried different things to install app, wasn't successful. Right now i'm trying to root this box so that we can use this set top box with any network other than jio and we can install any apps of our choice.

I am using my Jio set top box on ACT network, without doing anything, and still I can access JioTV , YOUTUBE,run non-HD channels on Hotstar, and everything that is free, except I cannot open Jio Store, Jio Call.
Initially, I made a request to terminate my connection and take back their items and give me security deposit, but no one came, then I tried and it worked on Act network, So I think this set top box is a good deal for 1500 (I have a 55" 8 year old, non-Smart Plasma TV).
Now I want to sideload it with oreo TV, but they have removed app installer!
Please ,if there is any way, let me know.
Anyone got success over adb?
Reset button available after opening up screw of Jio setup box?
There seems to be an arrow on the top left of bottom side. Just near the screw.
Could not side load with male to male usb
Tried by resetting(I can see reset button inside box) and using male to male but could not succeed. Drivers are not getting installed to connect to PC
Its time to throw this Junk to dustbin and by something less restrictive. Like fire tv stick. This is the reason I never trust Reliance they will do anything for money.
Jio should not forget there are much better alternative available in the market. Go Jio Go : )

Maybe you are frustrated, but considering that we (atleast I) got it for 1500 ( including router,4 months beta stage unlimited wifi, set top box) , it's a good deal. I can access YouTube on my old ass TV, still there has to be some way, which we will figure out and make good use of it.
no usb debugging on off under developer option
i have tried it doest work. as they have installed custom settings menu( u can see jio logo in settings ) and hide usb debugging on off function. i can see android settings app under system apps but unable to run it so unable to see usb debugging option under developer mode.

Actually I am bit frustrate. I knew Jio will do something like this so I have blocked all Jio hosts in my pihole.
For some reason I had to disable pihole for some time and this STB got connection to jio sites and upgraded on 28 March .
And due to lockdown I cant even order new fire tv stick
Install and give apk installation permissions before updating your STB
If you have given total commander or any other app the permission to install APK, you can continue to install apk's via that app. I had an STB in my office which was in boxed condition. Installed all required apks and gave them permissions before connecting to the net. Once connected to net Jio removed app installer and some permissions. But i'm still able to install APK's via Total Commander and Share IT.
Have enabled developer options, tried USB A to A male cable to connect to my laptop, but I dont detect any port. Tried changing USB to MTP, Charging and other options, but no luck on both ports. Trying TCP/IP access on 5555 gives a connection refused.
Have run some tests, will post the results later.
It is kind of unstable after many apps are installed.
Right now i've tested MX Player TV (Android TV), Prime Video (Mobile APK), Youtube Kids (Smart Youtube), Total Commander, Share IT, VIKI Rakuten (Android TV) work great.
Popcorn Time is unstable and restarts the STB.
Retroarch loads but cant get the gamepad, mouse or keyboard to work in the menu.
It has been almost 8 months since the Jio STB has been released, but all Reliance has done is to remove app installer.
The Anemic JioStore serves no purpose. Gamepad support and the bluetooth app are still missing.
What is Jio Fiber doiong ???

How did you open the box ??
I have a JHS D200 v2 box and was able to find only 2 screws beneath the cushion in the bottom of the box, still the box wont budge open
no need to open the setup box, if you observe carefully there is a small hole above the reset button point; you can use a pin to click it
root jio set top box

dont connect to the internet and update the stb, once updated to latest firmware app installer is disabled and you cannot install any apks
1. If the Jio STB is new do not connect to internet.
2. Download APK's of Total Commander, Shareit and other apps onto usb drive
3. Install APK using APP Installer in settings>apps. Search apps on usb drive
4. Once Total Commander is installed. Open Total Commander and try to install other apps, allow total commander permission apps in settings>security
5. Now that total commander has permissions, you do not need app installer anymore.
6. Give Shareit permission to install apps.
7. test by installing other apps.
Once everything is confirmed working, you can connect to internet and jio software will update.

I along with the others in the community have recently been served by GOOGLE with the pull of the apk servers.
If you happen to hard reset your Q then your Q can no longer be setup rendering it useless.
I am willing to payout $50.00 to any dev that can engineer an apk that will allow the user to setup a stock NEXUS Q without googles servers.
The APK will have to do the following -> access and setup the initial setup, this includes, wifi, bluetooth, nfc and adb debugging to be able to load APK's to the systems as I am sure many will be coming that will make the Q worth building this for, hence why GOOGLE pulled the servers because they saw this coming ....all as the original apk did but without the GOOGLE servers or need for servers.
I have 3 of these units and they are great for music, I love the internal amps and want to retain all the internal functions of the ports, also the audio is better quality when stock compared to rooted and cm10.1'ed.
I have one working setup still, one on the shelf and one with cm10.1 working with cheapcast.
Bounty is as follows this will be updated as members add their payment amounts.
IAN-$50.00

it would be used from your phone like the factory apk
The problem I see is the Q's original BT authentication method has to hacked. If this passes through the servers then this is a serious hurdle. You cannot pair anything that requires you enter a pin on the Q as the dialog doesn't even exist. Considering how crippled stock is, unlocking and installed either a stock based ROM or CM10 would be my suggestion.

Well if someone can write a stock rom or explain how to get adb debugging via usb working without the need to authorized it that would be a start. Because adb via wifi doesnt get the prompt and once you hookup a mouse in host mode you can not get the same usb to mount adb.
Any suggestions??
That is the biggest road block for me, while i know you can work around that it is a big crippling part of the q.
Is there enough interest for a dev to look at the factory setup procedure and see if they can re engineer around needing the servers? ? IDK

There has been a working stock based ROM for about a year now. Prior to Google killing the Q function it worked as a dual mode with Nova Launcher as a desktop. Even now the desktop mode still works. All that's needed is a keyboard. Also ADB starts on boot even on a fresh install and even after a hard reset. In the current test build everything except Q mode and BT work.

Are you talking about the one I used in my tutorial?
In dual boot does it have external AMP support?
So it does not prompt you for authorizing ADB once you try to? all 4.2.2 roms include that unless someone deved around that.
Yes I can adb in recovery on the rom I am using but not once booted into the rom it comes up unauthorized.
My Q's must have internal amp support. That is the whole point of the Q, if it doesn't why wouldn't I just go get a Denon Receiver and plug in a chrome cast??

Which tutorial, what ROM?
The ROM I'm talking about supports every function that the stock Q does. BT never worked correctly without a workaround on the Q initially. The needed support was missing in the stock firmware when they released it.
It does not require ADB auth to connect.
Again, it supports every function that the stock Q does as well as having Nova as a "desktop".

Are you talking ADB or initial setup? If you are talking ADB, then there is no login. Simply connect the Q to your computer and start ADB. If you are talking inital setup then you connect a KB and hit the "HOME" key and it skips setup and takes you to Nova launcher.

Your best option is to use BubbleUPnP and AirCast or similar app to fill in the gaps. Depending on how things go I may have an update in the next week or so.

Not well. Check the weather in San Diego (over 90deg) and imagine no AC and the only ventilation is air from the outside.
Upnpcast...
For everyone still looking for Chromecast support: You may try upnpcast by bubbleguum. It runs as a service on your phone / tablet and enables you to cast to any dlna renderer on your network.
The cool thing about it is, that it works right out of the gmusic app on your phone. As soon as a dlna device is detected on your network,the chromecast button will appear in the gmusic app. Just select the renderer you want to play to and you are good to go.
To play to the Q, install cm10.1 and a dlna renderer (I use bubbleupnp). Running for hours now without a prob. Note though, that the app is 1.99 for unlimited use.
Due to the oppressive heat in my home I purchased some portable A/C units. It cost me going to and speaking at the Big Android BBQ this year which kind of bites as it was to one my last one for a while (baby on the way). Good news is that it is cool enough to run my box and now have a ton of time to dev.
How would you guys fell about xbmc/yatse vs bubble? I'll post more details as they become available.

I installed your ROM last night working well. Is there a way to default it to boot to the launcher without it being attached to a keyboard or display seems some of the other streaming options don't load till it hits the launcher screen other then that cheapcast is always working for me. Wish we could also get the q to sleep when unused and turn off the ring.
Can we build a chromecast rom without using cheapcast? I.e lunch the same software as the chromecast device on our Q's?
If we build chromium content shell for android and feed it the app.conf from the chromecast firmware OTA (I cant post links so I cant post the full app.conf)? Or do we need something more? Any linux/android experts have a clue? We can build the content_shell using the build instructions on the chromium wiki @ goggle code. (I cant post outside links). I cant find any web-server or something like that in the chromecast OTA 12940 firmware dump I found on the internet. Does the content_shell include a web-server?

Hello everyone
This is my first time to the forum
I recently got the 2016 honda civic and it comes with android auto and carplay (for iphone). The car is great however I noticed that there is an "apps" section in the IMID display. There's options to install apk files on a USB drive, browser/search when connected to WI-FI, and a downloader app to view progress of downloads. I've tried having the apk files on a USB and was able to see the apk files, but the "install" button was grayed out so I couldn't install it. I looked on the web for tutorials on getting around it. Since the IMID is linux / android based - I managed to find the android settings window, select "about", scrolled down to "build #", and tapped it 7 times to try and enter the developer mode. I get the countdown till I enter developer mode, but after the last tap, it asks to enter a "passcord" which I think is a typo for "password"? and no keyboard appears to do any sort of typing for the password. I wanted to see if anyone got further than I did.
Tried a lot of things to see if there was a way to access the developer mode or by pass the car system to be able to install apps. I've read it's futile but just wanted to give it a shot.
Thank you for any help / advice!
(i've attached the info of the version that's in the car. need to remove a couple spaces in the link below)
https: //www .anony.ws/image/JgJ1
Found This
Hello,
I was digging in some more and found this under System>Legal Information>Open source licenses
When I selected "Open Source Licenses," it discusses the open source software and provides a link that I posted below.
(remove the spaces in the links below)
http ://www .embedded-carmultimedia.jp/linux/oss/download/H_ADA_163400_00001
(this is a picture of what I found)

I have some software background but this is beyond what I can understand for Linux/android coding language.
Has anyone heard of updates?
This code appears to just be for the Bluetooth protocol stack, BlueZ. I don't think it would be useful. Is there any other downloads in that text?

Unfortunately, I've tried digging in more, but haven't found anything besides the open source download link. But thank you for taking a look into what is in the source code. :good: All I know was that it was in C/C++ which I do not have a lot of expertise in following.
We just need to figure out how to get passed the "enter passcord" issue :/ or other methods of cracking into the system. I greatly appreciate the help
Technically, it is supposed to be possible to unlock the radio and navigation system through this website :
https:// radio-navicode.honda.com/
Apparently, the code seems to be unique for each vehicles... Now I don't own a Honda, so I cannot verify it myself.
Enjoy!

Thanks, I got my code, but now, how to type it in? It doesn't provide a keyboard.
Btw, the device has about 2G disc space.
Nice! Thanks for the info =) . For the keyboard entry, first thing I would try would be either trying to pair the radio with a bluetooth keyboard or simply plugging a USB keyboard in the USB connector inside the car. Chances are, it might be able to load the proper drivers by default if Android was not too much modified. Still, a long shot. Otherwise, I am rather surprise that there are no software keyboard on the device...

The unit has a software keyboard (it pops up in different places, like the browser for ex), it just doesn't pop up in this case. I guess it is disabled on purpose. I don't have a bluetooth or USB keyboard. Will have to search one. Actually, I'm thinking there should be some hidden USB port somewhere because the ones exposed are very limited.
Apparently if you
[...]enter the diagnostic menu press the green power button, menu button, and brightness setting button at the same time. Diagnostic menu will pop up in about 2 seconds. If it does work take your finger off the buttons and try again. To enter the developers menu select detail information & setting then hold the menu button. To enter the hidden android settings select android settings in the developer menu.

Maybe there is more to be done this way...?
The radio seems to be able to provide a lot of information about the car (a CANBus connection?). Let me know if it gets you any further =) . But still, the USB keyboard seems to me like one the most promising ways of inputing the code you obtained at the moment...
The radio code is only for theft protection. Normally the head unit stores the VIN for its original car and will lock if it gets put in a car with a different/inaccessible VIN. The code lets you unlock the head unit then. You can actually view it in one of the diagnostic menus.
I can confirm that a USB keyboard plugged into either of the two USB ports does not work. I have found out a few things, though. If you open the browser and go into Google or something so the on-display keyboard appears, you can then plug in the USB keyboard and the on screen keyboard will glitch. It will not allow you to type on the USB one. This to me seems like the device is purposefully recognizing the USB, then blocking it from being used. It would make sense to be that there may be a third, hidden USB somewhere that allows much more access.
I also have a 2016 Civic and went through all same things.
On another note, has anyone figured out how to do the brake bypass, how to ground it? I used the web browser by tethering my phone and youtube videos loaded fine, but it won't work if the car is not parked. Anyone know how to have functionality while the car is in motion?

It's more complicated than that I'm sure. I'm pretty sure it's getting speed sensor information. Also in the hidden diagnostic menu there are two entries that are something like VIDEO Moving or something like that and it's value is 0 meaning that it's off.

If you turn the power off then quickly back on, the button is no longer grayed out and you can select it but even still, the install still fails later on.
You guys are a lot smarter than me. Maybe this will help out?

Developper mode asked password
My Honda Civic 2016 (Canadian version) asked me a password to activate the Developper mode. Any one here had the same issue, i have done a complete reset of the system to default and still the same things.
To be clear, after tapping 7 time on Build number, the popup appeared.
My Android Version is 4.2.2 Build: 1.F186.67 and Model number: MY16ADA
Pls help !!

I have a 2013 model LG Google TV G3 55GA6450 that was recently gifted to me. Whenever I try to configure it to use the built-in tuner as my video source, I encounter "Unfortunately, VideoInputSetup has stopped"
According to this G+ thread, the error has to do with Google no longer supporting the local channel / programming lineup service thus causing the app to crash, and making the TV unusable as there is no other way to enable the TV Tuner input option without the app.
I have already tried force closing the 'VideoInputSetup' app, clearing its cache, etc. Also tried were a factory reset and using a custom launcher shortcut to launch the different functions of the app. Nothing has worked so far. I am willing, (with help) to extract the app and send it along to whoever and see if they can fix. Or to help any other steps / process to fix the issue.
Optionally, if someone might be willing to help me root and/or upgrade the device to newer Android TV, that would be awesome
I'm having same ANNOYING problem! This guy says he managed to root the TV but not sure if it will help. You need to go to the article since I can't post a url
forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/lg-google-tv-rooted-t2811945
Any fix?
Anyone find a fix to this yet?

Negative. I was able to find a way to manually add channels to the tuner, but it is currently useless without a way to enable the tuner for Input selection.
Thanks! Could you share the manual process to add channels? Right now, I have a fancy wall paper, would at least like to watch the morning news. Thanks in advance!

This will only work if you already have the "Buil-In Tuner" option available under Inputs.
You will need an app to launch custom shortcuts, I am using QuickShortcuts. Some custom launchers can also do this.
In the shortcut app, find the Settings application under "Activities". Expand it and then scroll through the activities until you find "Manual Tuning" (com.android.settings/com.android.settings.lge.channel.ManualScanActivity) and select that and finish setting up the shortcut to it. Launch the shortcut and add the channels you want.
and is there anything that we can using inseed to do this manually? It is working but there is a bad pop up saying "no paired devices found" and I can't change channel.
Thanks
Awesome, it works! It's clunky, but I can see a few channels now. Really hope someone has a hack through a rooted approach.
Do you know if anyone are working to root the GA7900 or other GTV3?

I've tried decompiling the VideoInputSetup apk to see if I could manually change anything in the part that keeps crashing, but I wasn't able to recompile it afterwards.
And I've tried everything else I can think of as a work around for those like me with LG's that can't even see the manual tuner in the input options, but to no avail ?
Correct, the manual function for the tuner is not available. I am writing to LG every week to get this done. know it is a lost of time ...
Your inquiry has been submitted for review and we are waiting for feedback so we can communicate it with you as soon as possible. We will also be including the observation you have suggested to improve future LG products. We assure you that these are being reviewed by LG management periodically and being utilized as valuable inputs for consideration in our products and services innovations.
Sorry, I can't help much than that
After a few calls with LG support, and asking for escalation, I learned that a converter box is the workaround. I have coaxial from cable provider. The converter box should have an hdmi output. Any suggestions on which product/model works well?
After accidentally rescanning for channels, I've bricked my TV for the broadcast channels. I've tried to use Teamviewer, Remodroid, but I can't find proper instructions to connect remotely to possibly fix the problem. The exploiteers website seems promising (www exploitee.rs) but not much information for my LG GA6450...
Anyone with update root instructions or ways to get Manual Tuner to work.? I've tried the manual tuner method but no channels are showing up.
I ran into this same issue and had several frustrating calls with LG support that went nowhere. I was lucky enough to stumble on some other suggestions and found a workaround. While not perfect, I can actually use the TV again. I hope this helps others in a similar situation. Follow the steps below and do not deviate (trust me I got really close to bricking my TV figuring this out):
From settings navigate to "Applications".
Scroll over to "All" and then down to find "Live TV" and open it.
Click on "Disable".
Exit back to settings and then to "Channels" (you'll see the options are now enabled).
Auto scan for channels (or if you've already done this manually tune to a channel).
Exit back to settings and back to "Applications".
Scroll over to "All" and then down to find "Live TV" and open it.
Click on "Enable".
Turn the TV off and then back on. (You'll notice you can change the channel, but after android has finished restarting it won't let you any longer).
To get around that, use the gesture button and click on the channel bar at the top to enable to guide below. You can now scroll up and down through channels, find the one you want and open to watch.
Note - If you press the "Home" button, you will no longer be able to get back to live TV. You will have to repeat the steps (on step 5, you can just manually tune). It's extremely frustrating that LG won't release an updated firmware to simply re-enable the tuner and I'm very disappointed with the way they have handled this situation (as well as how they interact with faithful customers).
So I came into possession of a commercial grade advertising kiosk (Nintendo Amiibo Display) that runs an Android OS 4.1.1. The device is setup to auto load the "AmiiboFrameWork.apk" package installed. The model of the system is DucoTech D185-ACA-720. I can access basic Android settings menus through a special key combination. Mainly system information, network setup, and volume controls. There is a menu that says App Install and gives the option of installing APKs from SD card or USB with a file structure of USB:\APKFiles\ or SD Card:\ApkFiles\. However no matter how I layout my file structure or name my APKs following that structure nothing appears in this menu to install. However There is a media tab for photos with a similar structure and photos I put on the card do show up. What I'm trying to figure out is how either install APKs, or access the base android system so I can customize the system to run custom apps I plan on making for it. However I want to retain the original AmiiboFrameWork APK or the whole OS so I can restore the system later if I want.
Now what I have tried is plugging it into my PC via the USB-OTG port while on, putting APKs in various file structures and naming conventions, booting it with my PC connected via OTG port, tried to trick my way into other menus through keyboard and settings menu tricks (similar to how people use to bypass lock screen security through menus).
Results:
1. OTG to PC while on: Device shows up as 2 USB 2.0 Flash drives in device manager. The drives appear in my computer but aren't accessible. ADB doesn't see it as an android device.
2. APKs on usb: Nothing shows up in the menu regardless of my naming convention or file structure.
3. Boot device while attached to PC via OTG port: My computer detects it as an NES Classic (previously installed the driver to mod my classic). This leads me to think its an Allwinner device or similar since that is what the driver was made for I believe? ADB still doesn't see it. This might be my best bet to get in.
4. Menus: Options are very limited and I wasn't able to access anything valuable aside from Install APK, Transfer Media, and Set startup APK.
5. Tapping build number: Tapping the build number in settings any number of times doesn't activate the developer mode options. The prompt doesn't even appear for it.
If anyone can assist in trying to gain access to this system, or even figure out the file structure so I can just install my own APKs like I want that would be great. Any ideas on where to look, what to try, and so on is greatly appreciated.
Here are some photos of the main board just in case
Any new updates to this? I made the mistake of uninstalling the Amiibo Framework APK so now all I can do is see the settings menu with no ability to install any APKS. Copying media files over does work though.

AmiiboFramework doesn't have anything to do with the "framework.res", Nintendo just called the app the "AmiiboFramework"
They only install APKs with a specific package name in a specific folder on your USB device / SD Card (com.general.mediaplayer.player). Unfortunately Nintendo used a different folder than us, and I don't recall what it was. You can go into a "normal" Android screen using a special procedure if the AmiiboFramework app is installed, but it should work without it too:
- Wait for the Loading screen to appear
- Begin to press the CSR and Setup buttons together, quickly alternating between them. Repeat until the CSR appears
- After the CSR appears, leaving the screen open for an extended period of time will cause the Amiibo Display Framework to re-appear
- If Alt+Tab is used, be sure to return to the CSR before returning to any other app, or the CSR will reboot the player
Alt+Tab refers to using a USB keyboard, after you have the CSR up you can exit with it.
They're really not great hardware for general usage.

Ohh, I tried to call and they wouldn't answer any of my questions lol. Is it possible to get any documentation on it? I'm sure Nintendo did their own setup, but having original documentation is a good step forward for what we have now. I'd love to setup my own configuration on it even if the hardware is meh.

There isn't much more documentation than what I mentioned unfortunately. The people who you'd get in a call definitely don't know anything about them (I don't think Nintendo made the AmiiboFramework app in-house either). If you want to repurpose it, you can try getting into the CSR and going into the normal Android Launcher. Try connecting over ADB and force-stopping any process with the letters "csr" in it's name

I have a few devices similar to this. They are duco DT156-AS4-1080. I was wanting to repurpose them as video players. The devices are wiped of content and load into a main menu. There is an option to exit to administrator, though it asks for a password. I dumped the partitions and tried to look through the binaries, but am unable to come up with anything. I can get into superSU and then exit to playstore, but then some type of watchdog kicks me back to the duco menu. Any help appreciated.

I DID IT! Working tablet
So the story is yesterday I found an Amiibo display at my apartment dumpster where people put stuff they don't want that still works, I nabbed it with the intention of salvaging the "monitor." Judging by the hammer-marks on the acrylic enclosure, and pry marks on the metal cage that held the power supplies for the led strips and the tablet I assume somebody took it home, got frustrated by the locks and screws after some prying, and just busted in the acrylic window to get to the floor model Amiibos.
I cracked it open, and after some fun with a butane torch to melt the acrylic around the screws open (damn security hex) was surprised to find that the "monitor" had a usb dongle plugged into it. I plugged it into my station and found it was a 2.4/5 GHZ wifi dongle.
All code here is from Windows power shell since I don't like to dual boot my main gaming rig. Usually I just use the Bash on Ubuntu on Windows developer option for stuff like this, but I didn't know if the fact I was using Windows usb drivers to connect to this would cause problems and I wanted one fewer step to troubleshoot if I had issues. Forgive me penguin for I have sinned.
I found the item number on the back of it and after some googling found it was an android device. Score!
I plugged the tablet in and it went into an Amiibo advertisement kiosk mode.
After about 8 hours I now have a limited (but functional!) giant Android tablet.
To any future adventurers I am making a guide to get you up and running quickly.

As well as pressing CSR and Setup to get into the settings screen. This was interesting, but ultimately didn't do much. However using
Code:
./adb shell logcat >> log.txt
and waiting for it to reboot from the csr menu led me to find (with some help from my engineer father) that /system/app/CSR_A003_20160304_BT.apk was the culprit of the restarts.
This was solved with
Code:
./adb shell rm /system/app/CSR_A003_20160304_BT.apk
From there I was stuck. But then I discovered: THE CSR SETTINGS MENU IS NOT THE REAL ANDROID SETTINGS MENU. To get to the real android settings menu use this:
Code:
./adb shell am start -a android.settings.SETTINGS
This allows you to do a factory reset!
However when it reboots the default launcher is stripped of important features like back/home/running apps, keyboard, a launcher etc. I sideloaded the following apps:
Chrome Browser
Microsoft Arrow Launcher (I originally used Nova but it was too much a ram hog to be useful)
Multiling Keyboard (I originally used Swiftkey, but it too was taking up too much ram)
WebTube (stripped down youTube frontend)
Soft Keys (so I had a home and back button, the running apps button still doesn't work :'( )
First post so no links ;(

This is what it looks like after boot. I may also have an affinity for Amiibos.

Quick note: This device doesn't support google play services, so no hulu, official youtube, netflix unfortunately. Try as I might I haven't found a solution.
i bought a box of these units a while back from the carboot and wanted to use them in our coffee shop were opening, i too didnt have much luck with them then i saw this thread, i know abit about computers but never messed with android, we basically wanted to use them for what they are used for now for displaying changing menus and advertising etc, i downloaded the clockworkmods adb, now how to enter the "./adb shell logcat >> log.txt" etc, presumably i just connect the otg port to the pc (win10) run the clockworkmod program then i use commandpromt? i did try it but i couldnt get it to work, do i have to put the android device into a mode like csr? any help would be appreciated?
N/A
Additional help needed
i got to the settings menu but it is only temporary i am wanting it to be like a regular tablet where can i get a rom to do that? to flash it so it will function like a galaxy tab 3 or so, as i would love to use my DT101-ASA-800 like a normal tablet with a keyboard and mouse. any help would be welcomed. as the factory reset doesn't let it work any different it keeps going straight to CSR settings.
so stuck... my head hurts
so i can not get my Model DT185-ACA-720 to connect to my pc..... ok it connects and a K: and F: drive appear but I cant access them. I managed to get .apk files to show up and transfer to the 12gb storage on the tablet but i cant access the storage on the tablet... im so lost... I downloaded the universal driver and ADB but both changed nothing... If anyone has any advice or updates im all ears since I basically destroyed the Kiosk to get this tablet free

Same issue here with the DT133-AC4-900 that I managed to pull out of a trashed google nest display from where I work. I managed to get the device to always load to the DUCO app by uninstalling the mediaplayer throught the DUCO app. However that is as far as I can get as the device will not communicate with ADB at all. Not sure if it's a win10 thing or if it's the device itself.

This worked, but I couldn't get ADB to work in Windows, I had to go grab my laptop running Deepin Linux and set up ADB on that, but no USB drivers are needed in Linux, so once I set up ADB, it just worked. So I'm hoping that might be the solution for others who are having trouble, just use Linux, it just works. ADB works on the CSR level, so no need for security key. Got CPU-Z on there for any curious about the hardware specs, my model is a DT101-ASA-800
Hi, I didn't see this guide anywhere so I thought I'd make one, this is my first so please reach out if you have any questions or need help.
1. Root with magisk.
2. Install busybox and props config module
3. Download a terminal emulator such as termux
4. Open emulator, type su press enter
5.type props.
6. Goto device finger prints
7. Pick a certified fingerprint
8. Find Nvidia and select it.
9. Find shield tv pro 2019 and select it
10. Reboot device when asked.
11. Open magisk and hide Pokemon go, you may need to enable this feature in settings.
12. Reboot device.
13. Hide magisk in settings.
14. Reboot.
15. Download safety net checker and make sure u pass.....magisk checker does not work properly.
16. Download ADB on your PC and run it.
17. Attempt to connect, once failed u will find a folder in documents called .android
18. Open that folder to find your adb keys.
19. Take adbkey.pub, open in notepad, copy and make a new text doc and paste it in, delete the .txt at the end and rename to adb_keys
20. Download a Root Explorer from play store
21. Copy adb_keys to root/data/misc/adb change the permissions to 770
22. Enable ADB over wifi.
23. Connect to your device, ADB should say success!
24. Follow this guide, you're device setup 2.

Enjoy some pokemon go! I used the GPS spoofer in the thread and it has worked since the original Android launch on Switch.
I have to shout out to the devs, this was an amazing release, waaaaay better and more stable than the original. I have had it running for weeks now, no issues. Stadia and steam link are awesome.
This also gets stadia to work, I noticed that if a joy con isn't responding, just remove it from switch, click a button then reconnect it to the switch.
Troubleshooting tips:
1. If ADB doesn't connect, recheck the permissions, I found root Explorer doesn't work 100% of the time when changing permissions.
2. If smali patcher doesn't work, and ADB is connected. Close smali patcher and reopen as administrator.
3. Flash the smali module via twrp. I couldn't get it loaded through majisk. After its flashed, make sure it's active in majisk modules.

Yes and no. While PGSharp can get you banned, it will only if you do are, as you well said, an idiot. If you respect the cooldowns and are smart using it, you can play forever on PGS.
If you play every day in a different country and have 100+ 100IV mons from different countries, of course you will feel the hammer. Play smart and you will be perfectly good.

Hmmmm, I'd rather play it safe and use this method as it's undetectable, the other method is detectable l, and there are lots of reports I find online about bans this you won't find any I would also prefer a method that works forever and not dependant on updates to be released.
I'm glad pgsharp works for you, but this is a far superior and safer way.
This also has the added bonus of enabling stadia amongst other features

Actually, both methods are equally unsafe. As long as the mask is not turned off by mistake (from the app and/or the user), PoGO won't recognize the root.
On Sharp, as long as you don't abuse, you'll be ok. Those who were banned are jumping from one country to another all the time, even ignoring the black wanings. And, if you do it too with this method, even if you don't use Sharp, you will be banned as well.
The lesson here is be smart when spoofing.

That's good to know but based on the data this is still a safer bet as there's been no band hammer, ever, with PG sharp the last one was in August 2020

No Root PGSharp vs Rooted Methods Comparison (March 2022) https://www.reddit.com/r/PoGoAndroidSpoofing For discussion of this, see Which one is better: PGSharp (no root modified app) vs. Smali Patcher with joystick app and Pokemod (rooted device required)? This is a Reddit post for this top...

I'm with johneyap, long time smali patch user and have never had problems when sticking to cool down timer. This is what the Reddit pogo spoofing community recommends hands down.
I installed android on the switch yesterday so I could try Xbox game pass and it's worked great. I remember installing lineageOS when it first came out for the switch and it was painful having seperate SD cards, but with hakete and switchroot it's gold.
I saw this post and thought do I need another device that's smali patched? I have a device with SD845 and it runs unreal so I won't struggle with lag and low/stuttering frame rates.
But great effort for the in-depth guide.
I tried with PGSharp but all it does is give me a black screen after the Niantic logo. Any idea anyone?
EDIT: Fixed it by using the ARMv7 version.
