Some questions about this hack

[the4anoni]

Hello (If you don't understand pictures use google translate on phone and translate via camera)

1. What's latest firmware confirmed to work with this hack ? And device IAN ? (On lidl service there are two Monsieur Connect with tho separate IANs, so maybe there are 2 HW revisions) Here are mine details: My IAN: 317552
2. When I click multiple times on App Version and Updater runs I am getting network error, however network works fine. Only I am getting this error ?
3. What is password to enter Factory Mode ?
4. OTA updates works after applying this (I think it won't work) ?
5. Do you recommend some apps ? I am interested in apps with Polish language

Hello @the4anoni

Here are my answers to your questions:

What's latest firmware confirmed to work with this hack ? And device IAN

I cannot tell you, i have hacked mine and thats it. How do you find the Device IAN?

When I click multiple times on App Version and Updater runs I am getting network error, however >network works fine. Only I am getting this error ?

I am getting that error too. I was assuming that i have somehow broken the online-support by hacking it. Now i suppose that they are just not providing any new firmware upgrade and thats the error.

What is password to enter Factory Mode ?

Unfortunately, i cannot tell you. My Device does not ask me this. However, if you can provide me a firmware dump(read until backup-section), i can try to find it out for you and other users.

OTA updates works after applying this (I think it won't work) ?

From my perspective they should work. However this is not a gurantee, as anything related to this hack.

Do you recommend some apps ? I am interested in apps with Polish language

Netflix ? :) Just open up the google-store, and choose some.

[the4anoni]

How do you find the Device IAN?

It was on box, also it is on sticker located at bottom of device.

if you can provide me a firmware dump(read until backup-section)

Do you have good english tutorial ? That one linked to en manual is in Deutsch.

Netflix

I need to buy it someday :)

[the4anoni]

I want to make dump of Firmware But I don't know can I use this scatter file. Also will USB 3.0 A Male to USB 3.0 A Male Cable will work ? I don't have 2.0 cable

[EliasKotlyar]

Hello @the4anoni ,

Yes, Usb3 should work. You can try to use this scatter file, it should be compatible. However nobody can give you any warranty.

Greatings

[the4anoni]

If this scatter is wrong and I use it only to backup ROM can it brick my device (just Backup) ?

[EliasKotlyar]

It should not from the technical perspective. Just dont try to flash anything without even knowing what you are doing(general advice)

[the4anoni]

Do you know good windows tutorial in English ? In en guide you linked to tutorial in German.

[EliasKotlyar]

Just google it :) https://androidmtk.com/flash-stock-rom-using-smart-phone-flash-tool

[the4anoni]

I mean backup, not flash.

I want to be careful, because in past I didn't have good experience with MTK device flashing.

[EliasKotlyar]

ok :) maybe we should switch to another communication medium. maybe write me an email, before spamming here around.

Thanks to EliasKotlyar for its explanation and its work. @BrixSat : Thanks for password. It works well and password no longer needed when i switch off/on MMC. Maybe a factory reset to restore the original password .... Otherwise risk losing the warranty if there is not password present. Regards.

[BrixSat]

It uses the password or if date has a diff of 15 days (must confirm) it does not ask for password. So when your tablet boots up if the wifi is connecting date may not be correct and it opens. :)

[extremeCustom]

Maybe the factory reset has been restored to restore the original password ... Otherwise there is a risk of losing the warranty if the password is not present.

I am trying to restore the password by restoring the factory settings in the application, but its still unlocked. Do you have any idea how to do it? I was trying to update the original software but I wasn't aware that I can lose the warranty for checking it. It doesn't heat up at the moment (common problem I heard), so I want to send it to the warranty service. The password is always the first time you open this window or it depends on version?

[EliasKotlyar]

try settings a different date. I suppose its checking for the date...also resetting the data of the password app should help..

[bobstar-fr]

Hello, As far as I'm concerned, the password is automatically active after some time of unused robot.

I am getting that error too. I was assuming that i have somehow broken the online-support by hacking it. Now i suppose that they are just not providing any new firmware upgrade and thats the error.

Hi all, what do we know about this? I am assuming that, at the worst case, this could be reverted by fully restoring all the partitions on the device, but has anybody confirmed?

I think being able to play with this device without losing functionality would be quite useful :)

[bobstar-fr]

Hello, It's like with a smartphone or tablet android can do anything with but it will necessarily leave traces so pay attention to the guarantee in case of problems.

[finipini]

Hello, any body tryed with this version? I, m going to start reading the tutorial step by step and see if I can do it.

Password is "321654". Enjoy ;)

Unfortunately this has changed in 4922/4923 :(

[tomekit]

Did anynone managed to find out new password?

Mam podobny problem. przestał mi działać ekran dotykowy lecz od uderzenia. jest jakiś sposób może oparty na Waszych doświadczeniach by podłączyć myszkę do portu i używać z uszkodzonym dotykiem?

A próbowałeś? w końcu nie masz nic do stracenia. PS Myślę, że warto tu używać angielskiego ...

Hello i tried ti connect mouse but It can't be recognized

[HokusPokusPL]

I also tried to connect the mouse but it does not work. Probably the usb has no power and only connecting through an active hub something could work, but I don't know how MSC is about it. I will try again to fight this android on MSC because then new possibilities will arise. sorry for my English.

@DreckSoft: The latest MC3 (Monsieur Cuisine Smart) machines use the last 4 characters of the device's serial number, followed by _Mc30 as the factory mode password (Example: 1K2W_Mc30)
