Hi all.....

I've got a SCANTOOL OBDLink LX connected to my AUDI S3 8P, and it's the fastest BT dongle i've ever seen.....it make about 45 Fps, when china's ELM make 10 Fps.....

Unfortunatly, the TP 2.0 protocol isn't available with a standard ELM327.....you just access to generic PIDs, so it's limited.....i'm working on it.

I also try a WBH BT5 dongle, witch should read the TP 2.0 with TORQUE......at the moment, i can't access to my ECU MED9.1 (but i can on KWP1281 EDC15P), i'm working on it too, with florian Help...

To paired with the WBH BT5, you need to override in Xposed MTC the dongle string name, and it work fine.

Excellent product. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Pumpkin-Interface-Wireless-Diagnostic-Scanner/dp/B011O69946/
[MTCB Hardware Development] Mr Bigglesworth:
As an update, since I remove carservice this works much better, no need to force pairing everytime.

No you can bluetooth to more than one device at a time.

Anyone using VGate iCar v2 or v3 BT version? I wish to have one of these as they have automatic sleep mode so you can keep it plugged all the time without batt drain.
[MTCB Hardware Development] ahfunaki:
So I've tried both this adapter http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014MV03KY?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00 and this adapter http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005NLQAHS?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00

And I can't get either of them connect to bluetooth. They both show up when you search for the adapter, but neither of them connect. They don't even give me the option to put in the PIN to have them connect. Has anyone ever had this kind of issue? If so what can I do to fix it?
[MTCB Hardware Development] countbuggula:
What module do you use to override the name? I need to do this too for my Kiwi3 but I can't find the relevant settings anywhere.
[MTCB Hardware Development] countbuggula:
Correction - I found the settings page finally - apparently I hadn't actually enabled xposed MTC. Once it was enabled and rebooted, I still haven't been able to get the device to show up at all in the bluetooth settings. I've tried:

K

k

Kiwi

KIWI

Kiwi 3

kiwi

KIW

kiw

Kiw

as well as leaving the field blank. Still nothing in the bluetooth settings. I can confirm that the device is on and connectable from my phone. Am I doing something wrong?
[MTCB Hardware Development] iateshaggy:
has anyone found an adapter that plays well with mtcb decks and 2001 f150's? i've tried 3 adapters and still haven't gotten one that does both. either the connect no problem to my deck but not to the ecu or they connect to ecu but its named "chx" instead of obd and won't connect to my deck. i did try using the xposed module to override but it never worked for me either.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Cret:
Hi guys

Just received this head unit today and it's my first android device for a few years - spent the evening installing it and I love it already - it's a huge leap from stuff I've had in the past.

One thing I can't see how to do though is how to add/change widgets on the main home screen on this version of android/this head unit.

I'm sure on previous android devices I've had it's been a case of doing a long press maybe on blank space on the screen, but this doesn't do anything. I found a screen panel which has some widgets that can be added to additional screens, but not the main one, and it doesn't include the items currently present, not things like app shortcuts etc etc.

This is probably a stupid/easy question sorry but I can't find out on this device how I change these, so if someone could assist I'd be really grateful, thanks!

Hi

I moved your thread to Q&A-Section.

Would you please tell us which ROM you are using? Or are you still on stock?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Cret:
Sorry, my bad. Thanks for moving it!

It's still the stock rom. Does it say the details for that in settings where it has the other details such as model/processor etc?

Thanks!
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Cret:
Anyone?

Thanks if anyone can help :)
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Brendo:
You'll need to use a different launcher. The default ones (next, etc) do not allow much/any modification
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Cret:
Thanks for the tip Brendo - didn't realise that's what it came down to.

I'll have a look into alternatives, but are there certain ones that are favoured for head units as opposed to ones that might be favourites on phones for different reasons etc?

Cheers!

Jim
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Cret:
Right - after some searching and reading I'm gonna change the launcher to Nova as it looks great and very flexible.

Also going to stick poweramp in it I think as a better quality music player.

I was installing Cyangenmod couple of months ago and i kinda messed up and my phone got softbricked and i didnt know what to do and the cell phone repair shop said he will charge $100 to fix it but i heard you can fix it for free i saw the post for the same problem but that phone had andriod 2.3 So can someone help me in un softbricking my phone and i dont have the backup files on my SD card do i tried looking for the andriod 4.1.2 rom but i couldnt find it so any help will be amazing
[XDA Assist] Droidriven:
Hello,

Welcome to XDA.

Can you still boot to recovery? If so you can try the normal wipes in recovery and reboot, you can restore a nandroid backup if you ever made one, you can download another custom ROM for your model and try flashing it.

If none of that works and you can boot to download mode, you can flash the stock firmware, most Samsung firmwares are available at Sammobile.com and at samsung-updates.com, you will have to use your exact model number(located behind the battery), get the firmware for your exact model, it doesn't have to be 4.1.2, any firmware version will work as long as it is for your exact model number, it cannot be for another model number. If you want to root after restoring the stock firmware then you need to check if the firmware you find is rootable before you flash it, some are not rootable depending on your device.

When I search your model number on XDA, it comes up that your device is compatible with the T-Mobile custom ROMs, see if you can find one for download that doesn't have a dead link and flash it through recovery if you can get to recovery, dont forget ot get the right gapps to go with the ROM you find if you decide to go that route. The ROMs can be found in the forum linked below.

These codes can be entered when accessing the Factory Settings menu item (Thanks to [MENTION=434511]agentdr8[/MENTION])

m123456 - opens Factory Settings in "super" mode -- makes another option visible; Launcher type (not sure what they mean though)

adbon - seems to enable adb on the usb port. Might enable it for all usb ports (haven't tested it yet)

*#hct#root# - enables persistent root adb on usb port(s) (might be an easy way to root roms, will have to do some testing)

adboff - disables adb on usb port(s)

keject - simulates the eject button for the DVD drive

kpower - simulates the power button

hcttouch - displays information about the touchscreen/calibration?

hctbtup - some sort of bluetooth update mechanism?

hctbtte0-9,0-9,0-9 - some sort of bluetooth testing code -- after the hctbtte there should be 3 digits, ranging from 0-9. Haven't looked into their meaning

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] {ParanoiA}:
I was never able to sync my ps4 controller to my fire TV either. I don't have a ps4 so I was thinking there maybe a controller update needed from the console. Do you have a ps4 console?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ludacrisvp:
I do have a PS4, which is also updated to latest firmware. My PS4 and controllers are from January 2015 IIRC.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ludacrisvp:
I had to pull out my windows install to run the SixAxisPairTool to get the PS4 controller to pair.

There is a Mac version but no matter what I tried it kept saying there were no controllers on the USB bus.

In the ADB shell you need to pull the Bluetooth MAC address from your FireTV Stick using this command:

$ settings get secure bluetooth_address

Take that value and plug it in to the tool and then you will be paired.

I've not had any time to test this though due to the wife occupying the TV, but I saw "Wireless Controller - connected" flash on the screen once I turned on the controller (which has not turned itself off either).

No idea what it takes to get the controller to work with the PS4 again though, could be as simple as plugging it in via USB or maybe I have to re-run this and put in the PS4 MAC address.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ludacrisvp:
I've been able to test it out, seems to work mostly fine, some lag or missed button presses seen, but that could just be the NES emulator I was using.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zenroid:
Working great ?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SantinoInc:
How hard is it to get the PS4 controller working with your PS4 console after doing this?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkP80nj:
All you have to do is plug it in through usb, and it auto connects.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ludacrisvp:
correct, that was all I needed to do.

Keep in mind the PS4 controller will not automatically turn off while being used with the FTV ... so to turn off the PS4 controller just hold down the PS button on the controller until it powers off (about 10-15 seconds).
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hobbes2099:
This was my issue as well. I was able to pair using the AFTV Bluetooth pairing interfase, but the input left laggy and button presses were also missed.

Has anyone found a way to reduce the lag or to connect the DS4 to the AFTV through the USB port?

With the hacked PS4 App you can play your PS4 remotely, and with the Moonlight app you can remotely play your PC games. Either one requieres good DS4 lag (5-10ms).
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hfosteriii:
Any chance on getting a short tutorial on six axis tool pairing? 2nd gen Fire stick tv and I'm having trouble getting anything to pair. It took ten tries with toggling adb on and off a few times time to pair one Bluetooth keyboard!

Recognizes the DS4 as "wireless controller"but methods giving pairing not successful, try again error.

Also settings.apk doesn't work on 2nd gen I think, at least not mine or others I've read about. Just jumps back to the last screen before opening the app on every click.

Thanks for any insight.

[T-Mobile LG G4] Mikekelso421:
I'm unable to figure out how to convert the boot.bin file I extracted from the firmware.kdz file. Magic iso won't convert the bin file to img file. So do I just change the extension from .bin to .img? Something tells me it's not that simple.

Btw I'm asking because I'm trying to build a rom. So I'm gonna need this boot.img to be able to boot in my rom. Any help is appreciated.

Or if someone could point me in the right direction for pulling the boot.img from my phone with adb, that would work too. All the guides I found are for different devices with different partition names. And a lot of the commands aren't working for me.
[T-Mobile LG G4] Tech_Savvy:
You answered the question urself... Just change the file extension from bin to img.. Ive done that before and it works... U can do a adb pull dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot.img

Both this and mcu codes are in the wiki, this is just for others to comment on (more info/discussion) and also so it will appear in search
[MTCB Android Head Units General] mike.s:
All of the MCU codes were not in the Wiki (they are now, because I added them).

What's there to discuss? If people want to add more detail to the Wiki, they can. For discussion of individual settings, a thread started with a copy/paste from the Wiki isn't a good beginning, and certainly doesn't add any new information. Adding yet another location to find the same information hurts, not helps, search.

Finally, the Wiki can be updated by anyone and doesn't require any individual to update their post as more info/knowledge is gained, and provides a single location users can refer to for common knowledge.

I know what keymap function does.

Option 1: If you open an app like radio and press home button it will close the app.

option 2: When you press the home button, it does not close the app anymore.

The rest of options I haven't tried!

Touchmap function .. I don't find any diferences beetwen the options. Maybe it's for units who don't have buttons?
[MTCB Android Head Units General] hans109h:
Any update on exploring the keymap options? I'm not convinced that the above description is universal, as when I have option 1 set and press the home button it does not close the app.

I've been trying different options (1 - 10) however don't have any really good information, except to comment that it's impossible to turn on Wi-Fi when set to option 3.

Option 2 seems to really slow down performance of the machine.

I've really only had a chance to explore 1 - 3 but will continue through all 10. Please post if you have any particular experiences with various options.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] lottumeb:
In my unit in the button keymap you can set different functions to a hardware button, by pressing the required button twice.

i.e.

The SCR button opens av player by default.

I don't use it and want to start the music app.

So press SCR button twice and in that menu you can choose the Music icon.

Then it will start the music app with the SCR button.

Now you have to be really careful NOT to use the touch button option!!!!

This recallibrates the touch screen, and if you touch the screen then..... it totally screws up everything...:(

Only solution then is a reset and you can start all over again.

---------- Post added at 11:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:19 AM ----------

Next thing NOT to do is in "others" tab.

There was some "power" option which default i think was "on".

Options there are "on" "of" and "remember last status" .

In my opinion the radio turned off to quickly, even when power down was set on 5 minutes (in android settings).

So i first saved this "power" thing in factory settings to "on".

Off course the radio stayed On after turning off ignition.

So i waited 5 -10 minutes, but it stayed on.

Then i made the biggest and most stupid mistake in my life and tried "off", and guess what.

It does not turn on anymore.... ****** (I should have guessed that).

According to the helpdesk, the radio should start in recovery when holding reset for 3-5 seconds.

But the button backlight (red colour) only blinks once when you release reset, and that is it.

Holding the power button for 10 seconds turns on button backlight as long as you hold the button.

I did receive their latest firmware so i could flash it in recovery, but then it has to boot first...

Now i am waiting for the next answer from the helpdesk, but for now my unit is dead.

I hope this message helps others to prevent making the same mistake.

I was find a solution:

HU can't start, because in the config file there is mistaken option with power service turned off.

You need to find a MCU file (DMCU.IMG) and MCU CONFIG (DMCU.CFG) file and make an HU update in the recovery. mode.

Put these files on the SD card and flash MCU.

Hi to all!

P600 xKat 4.4 TWRP

Today I tried to update to Lollipop from xKat rom last version. Before starting I Nandroid backed up everithing with TWRP (can't remember version, guess the one xKat flashes). After failing the update via Odin 3.09 (black screen for 1h20min) I wanted to go back to my rom to use it as normal.

Flashed TWRP last version, boot recovery, and in TWRP the touchscreen didn't work (if I pressed up power button the classic slide to unlock thing appeared but couldn't slide).

Flashed TWRP 2.6.3.3 and recovery booted ok. Made restore (selecting the correct backup and all data/system/boot options)

Finally the tablet booted and the problems started:

Half my apps disappeared

No data in my apps (ie: no notes on S Note)

No lockscreen

Nova luncher settings gone as shortcuts

All settings reseted

I've tried:

Wipe data/system/dalvik/cache again

Restore again

Wipe cahes

This is the first time, in many devices, a Nandroid backup fails to me.

Any idea/suggestions?
