Oh yeah!  My AVIC-8100NEX works!

 

I managed to get it to copy by simply sticking the new SDCard into my deck and letting it boot.  It booted right into Android and brought up the selection screens!  

 

 

After I rebooted using key 1, it went into this mode where i wrote the programs.

But.. I wrote the programs to a new SDCard.. 80X.

Does this mean having the Play Store, root access, overclock, etc.?  I wonder if anything can be done about the number files/folders limitation?

Not yet. But that is one of the end end goals.

Using copy_script.sh, get the output of 'netcfg' before and after the usb device is connected.   if that doesn't work, check "ifconfig eth0", "ifconfig usb0", and "ifconfig wlan0", then change the 0's to 1s

 

So without anything attached the following script:

#! /system/bin/sh
out="/mnt/udisk/log.txt"
echo "--ifconfig-- eth0" 2>&1 >>$out
ifconfig eth0 2>&1 >>$out
echo "--ifconfig-- eth1" >>$out
ifconfig eth1 2>&1 >>$out
echo "--ifconfig-- usb0">>$out
ifconfig usb0 2>&1 >>$out
echo "--ifconfig-- usb1" >>$out
ifconfig usb1 2>&1 >>$out
echo "--ifconfig-- wlan0" >>$out
ifconfig wlan0 >>$out
echo "--ifconfig-- wlan1" >>$out
ifconfig wlan1 2>&1 >>$out
echo "--id--">>$out
netcfg  2>&1 >>$out

Produces:

--ifconfig-- eth0
--ifconfig-- eth1
--ifconfig-- usb0
--ifconfig-- usb1
--ifconfig-- wlan0
--ifconfig-- wlan1
--id--
lo       UP                                   127.0.0.1/8   0x00000049 00:00:00:00:00:00
eth0     DOWN                                   0.0.0.0/0   0x00001002 1e:ed:19:27:1a:b3
tunl0    DOWN                                   0.0.0.0/0   0x00000080 00:00:00:00:00:00
sit0     DOWN                                   0.0.0.0/0   0x00000080 00:00:00:00:00:00
ip6tnl0  DOWN                                   0.0.0.0/0   0x00000080 00:00:00:00:00:00

What I find interesting is that a eth0 does seem to exist without anything connected. When I do connect a cheap wireless or ethernet adapter the output stays the same.  Time to look at the board. If anyone sees something let me know.

@AdamOutler what about iGo licenses? iGo in your "new" device is still working? Or licenses are invalid now? There is no maps now? As your firmware does not contain maps for iGo. How your EXTDATA partition is created without actual maps and data in firmware from pioneer?

 

If iGo is working but without maps, is it possible to update or upload free maps via naviextras? "First gps fix time" is changed to "now" or still older time? Can we "reset" iGo inserting new SD to update maps (free 45-day period after first gps fix)?

 

Can you now insert your old SD card into device, is it working or shows invalid password now?

 

 

What, like this?

Great news, I found my SD Card password and found possibility to change all BSP settings, there is dump from my NOR flash:


This 16 digits is a serial number of your SD..,but not the pass.,the pass. must be 8 digits.

Heh, they probably made the password a checksum of the serial.

May I ask how did you dump NOR?

Did you use JTAG?

Could be he deleted them himself, normally if deleted by moderator, it just will disappear.

now here in brazil we are working in Igo NextGen... We will try to crack license and use new Here Maps
 
In Brazil, last update is 2014.Q2 (Naviextras update)
But more recently Nokia Maps updated to Here 2015.Q1, and then working very well on old IGO units

If anyone have this new license files, please, send me inbox

thanks

As I mentioned above,iGO NextGen works perfect with wordwide content including Brazil as well...

but!!! - here is a topic about general pioneer hardware/software problems and solutions! and not navigation only!
So - be patient to the end of work  and lets us all to stop flooding here!

What happened? Did "whatisbypass" delete all his own posts, or was he pressured to do so? Like others, I was really enjoying following along, and the progress being made!

Posted Aug 07, 2015 · 14:53 UTC#574

Look like he had been pressured .... Did Pioneer stepped in ? I Hope not

Posted Aug 07, 2015 · 22:16 UTC#575

I've took everything i could in backup (Thanx Google cache) so i have 80% or more that whatisbypass erased. I will try some experiments on my 4100. Just have to buy a new SD Card.
