I've successfully gained Root access to In Touch (many mods incoming)

Hey guys!

I've gained root access to the factory in touch unit on the Infiniti q50 2018, this works on the 2014-2018 head units.

I've demonstrated a payload that auto installs apps right to the homepage, as that is a pretty good way to demonstrate root access.

Ive reversed most of this system, and am trying to run native x86 binaries on the underlying Linux.

I demoed a tool that runs APK's! not Infiniti's epk nonsense, this is real android apks that you just throw on the usb stick. I've fully bypassed the app garage! And unlike most half baked root methods, this does not permanently modify your DCU

Buying a 2015 Q50 premium AWD. My only reservation is the 91 octane requirement, but my area has 87, 89, and 93. Is running 89 safe or should I bite the bullet and run 93.

Buying from a family friend for $5500. Insane deal and I’d be stupid to pass it up. I’m still in high school, so fuel costs are important to me.

Full Intouch Gen-1 Replacement (Kinda) (External WiFi + BT support added)

Hey guys so I built an app that is meant to be used on the lower display instead of all of the factory functionality.

I also wrote WiFi and BT drivers and added in WiFi and BT dongles to connect to a BT OBD and your phone’s hotspot.

Here’s what’s done:
- (almost) Complete media control and source switching (seek and play/pause doesn’t work yet)
- Connection to a BT obd module via an external BT dongle
- External WiFi dongle w drivers
- Pulling metadata from Spotify incl album art (not shown in video yet)
- Updated TCP stack for internet access
- View current climate control status (no control)

Let me know if this is interesting and I will be more than happy to upload how-to guides + release all code.

Keep stalling, help

2015 q50 3.7, ~109k miles, no codes, I have a feeling this might be relevant, well a few days ago I switched out my air filters for k&n oiled filters, a day later I’m having this stalling issue, sometimes it won’t even start at all. Cleaned my maf sensors and throttle body and did an idle relearn a few times to make sure I did it right, all my hoses are in good and no leaks post maf. What do we think? Should I ditch the k&n’s or do you think the issue is elsewhere? Thanks for any input.

Saved It!!!

So wheels and tires really make a difference... until they dont. The storm almost won. I'm on I-85 south turning onto I-485 and ran through a huge puddle. My wheels/tires are 19" Forgestars with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 255/40ZR19 (100Y) XL in the front and 17" Forgestars with Mickey Thompson ET Street S/S 305/45R17 in the rear. The slicks got me!!!! The rear came around at highway speed! I jammed the brakes and corrected and was looking at the wall!!! I corrected again and it straightened out. HOLY!
