Windows ce generic head unit radio



I just purchased a "windows 8" unbranded radio from Amazon and it does most of what I want. It looks like an Ouko but for the life of me I cant find model. I have some small problems and I'm out of places to look for help. One the settings page doesn't work. It is like it is waiting for a password. I tried resetting but that didn't help. I can press buttons on the page but it does nothing. Not sure what to do. I can't even change the time and date.

Next I need help operating the radio. There a re so many options on the page it just isn't intuitive. Otherwise it works pretty sweet. Back up camera is nice. The GPS is ok..not very smart. Blue tooth works well and that is all I've tried so far.

Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction. I'm no developer but I make CNC machines for a living so I'm not totally incompotent...lol

Are expensive branded cases really better than generic ones?



I'm currently waiting for my Moto X (2nd gen...) to arrive and searching for a case & screen protector.

I live in Israel and so prices are higher than in the US if I include shipping and so on. For example the Supcase bumper case which I assume will be best for me costs about 33$.
I've also checked Chinese sites like Ali Express and I can find all kind of cases for 1$-5$ and shipping is free. I'm wondering if there's any significant difference between those higher-priced branded cases to and generic ones in terms of protection. My current Moto G has a Trident Aegis case which is great but also pretty expensive - I'm wondering if I should again invest in a such a case (though not so bulky as this one) or I can go with one for 4$-5$ and get pretty good protection.

I WON'T compromise on protection but if I can get it for less money it's of course better.
