  • Hi I will try to dump EMMC from a working HMI 2.5 when I get some free time.

    To read the eMMC chip, you need a very specific reader; not all readers will work. I also had to remove the silver capacitors from the HMI because they were charging with the current from the SD card

My bench setup doesn't have an IPC connected. I do have a BCM so I can do VIN programming on the HMI and Silver box.

For my simple Setup i don't use IPC or BCM. Only HMI, Silverbox and Display.

Hello, could you give more details? A picture would be nice.

I even figured out how to activate video in motion and sat nav in motion. Video still plays while gear stick is in drive mode. Can type in Sat Nav address while the car is driving. 

This HMI puzzle/hack is now complete for me😀.

Hi, you can use the GM DPS software and special DPS file to remove the theft lock from the HMI. More info can be found in the weblink below.

 

 

Info on activating various features in the HMI 2.5 can be found at the weblink below.

launch netstat -an and check if the port 22 is listen in 0.0.0.0

image.png.31d4bfa865aca26c9bb9e3e3346cb14d.png

 

I have connected the HMI via wifi menú (enabled with calibrations)

. with ASIX AX88179 chipset ethernet adaptor, works too. the HMI in ETH0 have this address by default: 172.17.0.1  mask 255.255.0.0

image.png.e69aa680f47c72d9aa632a3191aa4ab8.png

 

and you can connect via ethernet: (configure the pc address in the same range 172.17.0.2 255.255.0.0 for example

Someone with ssh/console access can check the permissions of this files/folder?

 

I need know the permissions of all, because i delete all folder, and i restored it, but now the "shop" application not working OK. and i think mising permissions or a symbolik link.

After the error message "Cant connect", if i click settings, nothing happens and should appears a menu

If someone can check it.
