[Q] IP Cam Viewer wrong read phone state access? - G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps

Hi everyone,
I have purchaced the paid version of Ip Cam Viewer.
Before downloading the application the authorization for PHONE CALLS: read phone state and ID was not asked via the android market interface.
Once the application was installed I could see in the apllication settings that the app had the "read phone state and ID " access.
I have contacted the developper who told me that this permission was not written in the app code.
Another user with the same app told me that the Read_Phone_State wasnt displayed in his settings menu so the problem really comes from my phone.
I have a G2 (Desire Z) running with Android 2.2.1, if someone with the same phone
could perform the test with Ip Cam Viewer Lite I would be very grateful.
Thank you for your replies.

Froyo and exchange

I've searched everywhere but cannot find a solution that works.
I've just got a HTC Desire but cannot get ActiveSync to work. No one other has a Desire with froyo so I cannot get any help here. (they do got iPhones or window phones, which all can sync)
I use the exact same settings as they do, however whatever I do I get "authentication failed", and I know that I user correct domain/user/pass.
I tried owa through the browser and that worked fine. I checked the certificate and that was valid. Any ideas?
We run exchange 2003
go check the exchange original certificate's host name.
This was the problem with my setup.
On 2.1 it didn't care, on 2.2 the domain(host name) must be identical to the actual certificate of the exchange.

I'm going to assume you are running Froyo - as most exchange servers require remote wipe and unless your device meets the minimum security requirements it will not work.
Have you installed the certificate? (This may not be necessary as ActiveSync pulls the policies from the server)
Settings > Security > Install from SD Card
Froyo supports ".cer" certificates so you should not have a problem here.
Here is the main thing, in security you need to make sure you do the following:
Change screen lock - make sure you set a PIN password (MUST BE PIN!) If you have pattern password enabled you will not connect.
Lock phone after - this should be set to "Immediately"
After over a week of trying to get it working on my Desire changing to PIN password is what I had to do. Let me know if this works for you.
Failing this download the demo version of TouchDown from the android market and try to connect using the "Automatic" method - if it fails it should give you more details on what the actual problem is or you can always email NitroDesk who make the app for help.
Thanks will try!
tried and it did not help. I'll check with the retards managing our echange. My colleague tried with his user/pass and it worked straight away. there's something wrong with my user i guess.
There is a bug with certain configurations of Exchange 2003 where IIS will throw an error when you log in, if your password is set to expire within 14 days.
Try to log in with outlook web access and see you get "HTTP 401 Unauthorised".
If you do, and press F5 and see if it lets you in. If this happens then you just need to change your password and it should start working on your Desire.
Thanks for your answer st0kes, but it did not help. I can access OWA without any problem. I have tried to set a new password but that did not help either.

[Q] Can I help me about "Lock the device"?

Hi guys,
First post, so, firstly, hello! I've been using this website for a while,
I have a question that need to help.
I'm using S620 n I have installed App F-Secure Mobile Security to Anti-theft only.(this app will send a private message to me when SIM changed.)
To enable Remote Lock Function, I must set my S620 locked.
However if the device locked, when U start your device, it will require to type your password. How must I do to disable this func. when starts. Because when my device is stolen, if it locked, the theft can hard reset all.
It want to be a Remote Control and a Remote Lock that the theft don't know!
I tried to search and found "Device Lock.exe" and "Device Lock.mui" files in Windows Folder but I can't open Device Lock.mui
Thanks!

[Q] Remotely enabling GPS bug

Hello guys, I have Avast Anti-Theft installed and working in my rooted Arc-S phone using Android 4.0.4 Build number 4.1.B.0.431 with locked bootloader.
When I send the remote command LOCATE from the avast web, my phone just prompts with:
"Will collect anonymous data while using GPS. Data transmission charges may apply"
And, if the thief is clever enough, he/she will press NO.
Any workaround for this?
Thanks
This idiotic message appears to me whenever i'm driving and need GPS to run. I hope there is a way to take it off.
Imagen 1 year of using the phone and it will keep asking the same dump question.
It's standard on android over 2.2. Probably intended as a security feature.
If you're rooted, you can install secure settings and the helper thing in that which can enable GPS without that message.
Settings - Security - Device Administrators
Make sure your anti-theft app has Administrator rights ticked there.

Unlock car multimedia system

I'm trying to find information about a multimedia system i have installed in my Skoda, the sticker on the device says CNT100, which is manufactured by CarNeTek (device page - https://www.carnetek.com.tw/products_detail/15.htm, not sure if they are the manufactures or just a reseller).
The company which sell and install it locally are not willing to share any information about the device, and of course are not willing to unlock it (to install applications from the play store, tweak configuration, etc.).
On the device there are 6 dip switches (which i couldn't figure out what they control), and no visible button (to get into recovery), i can get to the play store, and install applications - but as soon the installation is completed - they get uninstalled (there is a list of application that are not automatically uninstalled).
The launcher looks like a custom local version, there is no way to get into the settings page and the notification bar cannot be clicked (or dragged down), if i click multiple times on the menu - i get a dialog for some configuration, where i'm prompt for password (the dialog has a random number on it - which i suspect is used to generate correct password).
is anyone familiar with this device? or can suggest a way to unlock it?
(attached images of the device and the boot screen)
Hey mrtowel!
Trying to figure out that as well.
You said "if i click multiple times on the menu"
Where is this menu? possible to send a photo of that?
I'm talking about an Israeli version
Seems to be customized by [email protected]
sorry but i was wrong describing the way to get to the password dialog, on the home screen - there is a weather widget, showing the weather on the left side and the clock on the right side, multiple taps on the weather allows you to reboot the device, while multiple taps on the clock gets you to the password dialog.
I made some progress with the device - still working on getting it unlocked completely, let me know if you want more details.

Hey!
Just found that new to me. Pushed 6 times on the clock of the weather widget and got a prompt for the password. I receive a 9 digit number with that.
Also found that if you do the same on the temperature indication, you'll be prompt for device restart.
So that's a progress.
Anyways, I will be happy to hear from you, what progress you have made on this.
Will send you a PM.

try to get to app store (in case it is installed) through one of the installed apps using the 'rate us' option, you can also try and push a play store link through bluetooth, if it works - the android system will launch the play store app, and you'll be able to setup your account.
Once you get to the play store - download and install Googel app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox&hl=en) this will let you ask google assistant to 'Open Display Settings' (in my case this option let me enable the drag down menu, where i could easily access the settings and other stuff).
hope that helps
?
Hey did you succeed?
please help
Hi

thanks
Thanks for the tips I've made it to download youtube! But how I can bypass the limit to install all apps from play store?
Also how can I cancel the restrictions of using apps during drive?
Thanks

Hey @mrtowel any change you can share some more details?
I tried connecting to the USB with my laptop to try doing some adb commands but it did not detect anything
I'm also wondering about the dip switch
and how to get the password bypass
Would really like to hear some more details if you can share please?
Just came here to see if can recall my steps from last time i played with the device (i kind of gave up, as it worked well with what there is, but recent update made it work really slow).
turns out there is a post on facebook (https://facebook.com/groups/gilcar/permalink/729881061134680/?comment_id=729883497801103), i'm going to try and build some utility to generate unlock codes (last time, i managed to get to an adb terminal, but i wasn't aware of the `pm hide` option to disable the installation blocker ****).
will post updates here if i get some progress
For anyone interested, attached the list of whitelisted apps. a jar to generate the code to enable tech mode and how i disabled the installation blocker
For the jar - you would need to get your device Wifi MAC address (see old post from 2019 on how to enable the navigation bar), which can be retrieved from the 'אודות' section. (run the jar by running 'java -jar codeGen_jar.jar 00:11:22:33:44:55' - replace the numbers with your device mac address)
Wifi must be enabled - before the next step
To get to the code, hit few clicks on the clock widget in the home screen would prompt you with a password (if the code generator matches your version of connect-it (if it isn't - see bypass admin mode workaround below), the codes would match), enter the unlock code (admin mode result from the codeGen output) and move to the apps section - you would see 'tech mode' application.
Wifi must be connected before the next step
On the tech mode application - you would have another code (tech mode result from the codeGen) enter it - and it would open a page to enable adb remote server (you must be connected to a wifi network to get it to work).
Connect to the adb using a remote shell from another device (or a laptop), to the specified IP on port 1917 (note that most mobile tethering options won't work due to networking limitations). If you don't have an accessible wifi network - see Wifi Workaround below
From adb, run the following:
to disable the application which blocks installations: pm hide com.ituran.installationblocker
Disable updates: pm hide com.ituran.systemupdateservice
Disable blocking applications while driving: pm hide com.ituran.driveusagemonitor
Tips:
While in admin mode, you can see all installed applications, and pin them to the start page of the home screen, recommend to pin Play Store app (as it is usually hidden)
Don't try to enable or enter 'Guest mode' (i tried it, and the device went into boot loop)
The codes generated are date sensitive, so either generate new ones if you won't use them in the same day, or change the device date.
Wifi Workaround : a workaround can be to install modified version of 'Remote ADB Shell' (attached) on the device, save it to your mobile phone, and push it to the device through bluetooth, this version is the same version as 'Remote ADB Shell' from the play store - only names 'Spotify' which will keep it installed on the device, after installation, run it and connect to 127.0.0.1 on port 1917 instead.
Bypass admin mode workaround : while Admin Mode enables you to view the hidden applications, in the above process, it mainly gives you the option to run the tech mode app. if the code for the admin mode isn't working for you, install 'Amaze file explorer' (attached - it was renamed to bypass the installation blocker) by pushing it through bluetooth.
You can find more details on this facebook post (not mine - but i used details from this thread to figure out how to disable the application from ADB)
Enjoy and drive safely.
