Question about locked launcher in Chinese Android HU - Android Head-Units

Hello all
Today I am fighting with small but irritating problem.
I bough chinese HU and it's launcher is just horrible. Cant make any adjustmens etc. So I tried to install Agama that has been worked perfectly with earlier units that I had. Problem is that I cannot make any new launchers default at any trick.
I have tried and noticed the following:
- Reset apps and click home button (does not work, does not even ask default)
- In setting launcher settings are hidden/missing
- Apps like Launcher Uninstaller see all the lauchers but cant change or uninstall anything
- In the carapp->factory settings (pw 8888)->launcher->only few preinstalled launcher that I can pick but not anything else
I allso tried to root with Kingo Root, it does its job and after restart everything is like it was before (locked bootloader???)
So if anyone can give me any advise I would be very very happy
UNIT:
Ossuret XL6107.20210427.112507
MCU XL6107_V104_20210514_
Android 10
2/32GB
A7 1.3GHz x 4

Kingo root idk if it unlocks the bootloader but have u opened the app and checked if root access it there?

You could use adb to remove the apps you dont need or install a new launcher

I have checked and no root access after many attempts.
I will try adb, I googled it but it's a totally new for me so I need to some studying how to work with it. Thanks for the info

Hi, do you solve the problem?
I'm also trying to change the launcher (same unit).

Use ADB to uninstall it and grant permissions.

I have not yet tried to change it, have been busy. I have tried to learn how to work with ADB but it seems there is so many ways and commands.
Anyone can confirm is this even close if I want to set another launcher main and disable original (If cannot be uninstalled)?
adb shell cmd shortcut get-default-launcher
adb shell cmd package set-home-activity "your.package/.YourLauncherActivity"
adb shell pm disable nameofdefaultlauncher
Thanks

If you remove the default launcher it'll ask you to set a new one.

It's a real pain. I even get no developer access. It's all blocked or hiding. No chance to use ADB :-(
(Sorry for my bad english)

Can you tell me your model and make of the headunit?

hello guys, it looks like this unit is having trouble changing the launcher. I have the same product with the same problem and I am looking for solutions. I also tried an update but it doesn't work. I hope we find a solution.

No, I don't have access.

You can replace stock launcher with root. It is a bit of a process though. Can you share a screenshot of your System Info? Should look something like this.

Thanks for the answer.

A person above rooted with KingoRoot but i dont trust that cause of how it steals data or smth.
there is a way to access dev settings but there is a specific way for a certain HU

So the build version dosent do anything?

You can try root idk if it works for you

I also tried Kingoroot but it doesn't work. I don't think he recognizes it as android because in the end (99%) he tells me to try the pc version.

Few cyanogen questions

I have a few questions so instead of making a whole bunch of threads I just made one. If you could at least answer one question I would appreciate it.
All relate to 32B by the way.
I know that I had to download a new keyboard, but is there a better keyboard than the default one available for cyanogen, or do all keyboards work?
Is there a way to customize Cyanogen with themes?
Is there a Wifi tethering app?
Also is there a way to view the system files to your phone? I need to upgrade my recovery.
I do not know much about cyanogen his ROMs, but I had it once and I think it was WiFi tethering. and it is very easy to update the recovery through a terminal on the phone.
How do I do the terminal thing? I have the adb thing or whatever but I do not know how to use it.

If you don't like the stock android keyboard which is delivered with the cyanogen ROM, then you can download the HTC Touch Input keyboard.

Yes there is! There's tons of themes that are made to run on cyanogen on these forums!
Follow: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Installing_Themes
And: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=527
They usually have the ROM-version they run on in the title.

There's a wifi tethering option inbuilt into cyanogen (under Settings > Wireless Controls > Internet Tethering)
Hope this answers most of your questions

Thanks for the help. But what I forgot to put, is that I get an error whenever I tilt my screen sideways to type. It says the application browser process com.android.browser has stopped unexpectedly, please try again. I have no idea what that is and it happens with whatever keypad I use to type.

[Q] Phone freezes when in lock for too long.

Hi, I have a problem with the whole locking the Android for too long. The problem is this, when I lock my HTC HD2 for too long, the screen freezes and doesnt come back on unless I remove the battery and re-boot.
Is there a solution for this?
And if so, can it be posted?
Thanks in advance

Do you have rooted build? Mostly all the builds are rooted. But sometimes in some builds root permissions have problem. You can check whether you have root or not by following method:-
Download terminal emulator from market(free)
Open emulator and type "su" without quotations and press enter
if you do not get any errors then you have root enabled. If you have some errors then you might have to find solution to root your build.
I also got lock freezes that appeared at some point. I started remembering what I was installing and guessed it might be the poweramp lockscreen widget. I disabled it yesterday and did not have any lockscreen freezes today.

Well I am not a pro in the matter of rooting the build... I would recommend you to search the thread of your own build. May be someone else had the same problem. Another thing you can do is post another question about rooting the phone, may be someone expert will help you out....

Nicely rooted Nook Touch got "unrooted" - few thoughts

Dear fellows,
I got nicely rooted Nook Touch (and have never asked such dummy questions) with plenty of applications working on it - all of them uploaded and tested via try/error approach. Unfortunately, I did not use it for quite some time.
Now, can see:
1) the left-handed hardware buttons stopped to work - the upper one was used as a "Back" button, the one below it as a "Settings"
2) Cannot connect via adb from my laptop
3) Some programs like AdFree started to push a kind of annoying messages like "Unable to get root. I was unable to get root access, without this you cannot install a replacement hosts file", etc.
1), 2) and 3) make me think that somehow my NST got "unrooted". How can it happen and what I can do ? I am thinking of rooting it again, but will I lost all the .apk-s installed, etc..?
Any ideas really appreciated, many thanks in advance
Any help ?
Thanks in advance!
Sounds to me that your NST got updated.
Go into Settings and check your software version.
Hi ros,
I thought of this as well. Unfortunately I can't remember if it was 1.0.1 prior rooting or just 1.0.0. At the moment it is definitely 1.0.1. I saw that B&N has just released 1.1.0 too ..
As far as I remember xe-autonook.bat had the section that blocks OTA updates,
also after rooting I did not got over the official update procedure (update screens, restarts, etc.), so seems to be something else ...
Anyway, since it already happened - if I choose the option to root it again - will I destroy everything - is it rewriting /system/apps, etc.?
Thanks

Hmm, what root method did you use in the first place?
Autonooter ? The one that is using the xe-autonook.bat - replacing the uRamdisk and then doing few other steps, the bat mentioned above is just automating the procedure.
Now I did check .. and voilla - now the firmware is 1.1.0, so basically the OTA update took place and that's why the NST got unrooted. Do you see any possibilities beside rooting from scratch ? I just want to keep the installed applications and settings
Thanks

Use TouchNooter, it'll reroot you and you don't have to wipe /data
Great, thanks Gabrial!
Will try 1.11.20, which seems to be compatible to NST 1.1.
Result:
- su on terminal emulator is behaving as expected
- GMail running (never could get it running before)
- Market running (the same as GMail - never got running it before, used Amazon Appstore due to this reason)
...
- thankful, great and nice work, when I saw the bottom left sign on the initial ("Rooted Forever") window - "GabrialDestruir", I just realized who replied to me, cheerz!
Hi guys,
However I am wondering whether should I find a way to disable the OTA updates or whether to wait and receive the B&N and then reroot (as I did now for 1.1) ?
Thanks again

sadly for oreo we cannot just install overlay apk anymore to make it work.
options are:
1. install overlay apk (and reboot) then do some adb things to cmd overlay enable it (need plug to pc)
2. have samsung theme that hide this panel.
3. use substratum (and paid andromeda) and have some subs dev to make this hide sim panel (need plug to pc)
i hate oreo for this. maybe just me, but oreo sucks compared to easy theming in rootless nougat.
edit: here's reference to option 1: (need to edit bat file and change apk name)

Carlinkit AI CPC200 Root Help

I've got a Carlinkit AI CPC200, and I am trying to figure out how to root it. I have opened developer options, and it says the bootloader is already unlocked. When I plug it into my computer, though, it doesn't come up, but I don't know if I even need to use ADB. Can I just download Magisk, a copy of the bootloader.img file (which I may need help finding), and have Magisk do its magic? Sorry for being a noob, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
What did you find/try from reading forums
I try to search it with no success. Can we "root" the Carlinkit AI BOX Mini ROM?
Thank you so much. I see that i can't modify some parameters because when the device reloads return the value to default.
Greetings

Sorry, but I have no experience with Carplay systems. I use real Android car radios so I don´t need carplay.
As these units you are talking about are just adds to an existing OEM radio, You may be better hosted in the Android Auto General forum, but even there I don´t see something related to these boxes.
