Hello all!
I'm a newbie here on the forum so forgive me if I ask a silly question...
I just got my Captivate from At&t for christmas and tho I love the device I do have a few issues I'm hoping someone here might be able to help me with. I've searched for answers for a while, and though I've found a lot of resources, I'm not quite sure what's the best way to achieve the results I want. I'm not much of a programmer so I'm hesitant to tear into re-coding anything, which seems to be fairly common with customizing the Andriod systems
1. - I purchased the OEM car mount, and tho it wasn't mentioned on the site, anywhere, I'm sure everyone is aware that the Audio Out on the mount doesn't work unless you're running Froyo 2.2 (a lovely note they decided to add on the back of the mount but not anywhere in the specs online).
Regardless, it's quite a nice mount and after researching online I tried to do the Froyo Update posted here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=797282 : to get the audio out to work with the mount... however it wasn't a success.
I also came across the issue with this update that the headphone jack on my handset wouldn't work with phone calls anymore...
So since then I have reset my system to stock using the Odin Master Clear.
Now, I've tried searching online for anything about getting the OEM Car Mount audio-out to work... but have yet to come across anything besides people complaining about the cost.
Any ideas?
2. - I have noticed the stock system's GPS is a bit sluggish and not quite as accurate as I had hoped. I know there are tons of posts on here to fix it but most of the ones I've read require rooting the device or reworking the coding...
Could someone please point me to an easy to read reference for fixing the GPS?
3. - This may be simple but, what's the best and easiest way to remove At&t bloatware?
4. - Is there a hack or app to enable the camera shutter button to work off the power button or volume buttons?
That is about all. Thanks for reading if you've made it this far. I appreciate any help or direction anyone might be able to give me.
Like I mentioned earlier... I've been trying to research how to do these upgrades on my own, but with all the different options available, and my first attempt not working so well... I'd much rather ask for help then bumble around and break something.
Thanks in advance!!
Nobody's got anything?
I'd at least think there'd be some insight on the Car Mount Audio issue... beings there's posts and posts of people complaining about it yet I haven't read of a ROM or tweak to fix it.
hey folks,
I have been following all the Milestone development threads since the very beginning, and have gone through each inkarnation of kabaldans incredible work since CM6. Recently, I updated to CM10 (first without, now with 2nd boot) and am absolutely amazed by how far our good old milestone has come. While playing around with it quite a bit, I have come across some problems (I would love to report them in the appropriate development thread, but the 10-post-count won't let me unfortunately.)
First, I really loved the keyboard multipress-system since I live in Germany and have to enter Umlauts very frequently (ä, ö, ü, etc.). The multipress-system sped that up greatly. Now, although the corresponding settings are there in the Milestone-specific part of the Settings-app, multipressing actually doesn't work for me in CM10. Is that problem specific to me, or is multipress not yet fully integrated in CM10?
The second thing I noticed (probably since 2nd boot, but I am not entirely sure) is, that in the Settings under About Phone > Status neither IME nor Serial number are displayed (instead, it says "unknown"). This also prevents me from launching Whats App - it quits saying "Your phone could not be identified ....".
Does anyone else experience those issues - and/or could perhaps somebody please post this into the CM10 development thread, so kabaldan notices?
thanks, mvol

I have issue like this, and I can see IMEI and IMEI SV, but the Serial Number is "unknown".
after doing a full wipe, IMEI now shows up for me as well, but unknown serial and multipress problems remain.

You are almost at the 10th post.
Maybe wiping everything is a solution for that?

Hi mvol,
I am running the new CN10 10/24, the seril reports also Unkown but it doesnt stop me from running and using WhatsApp app.

WhatsApp now works - it looks like the full wipe which solved the unknown IMEI problem also fixed WhatsApp.

have you guys tried multipress using the hardware keyboard? Does it work for you?

here using the shift and alt is working normally above 2 keys simultaneous ... not tested on that specifically, you will use more than 2 simultaneous keys?
with "multipress" I mean the feature invented by nadlabak/kabaldan that allows one to press the same key multiple times very quickly to enter special characters (like pressing "a" two times very fast producing "ä", for example.) It worked perfectly for me in CM7, but it doesn't anymore in CM10...
anyone, please?
It works fine for me. I use it frequently.
mvol: I still haven't found the time to implement the multipress feature completely in CM10. Only a few of the final bits is missing. Please be patient.
thanks for your answer - in that case, I'll wait patiently
Link not working for me
Hi All,
Im unable to access the latest builds for milestone CM10 by kabaldan. Please can anybody provide alternate link?
Thanks
Hello people!
I'm a long time CM ( 6 and 7 ) user on my Milestone.
After updating it to CM10 ( full wipe, ext3 partition formatted ), adb does not find my device anymore.
I have changed the USB settings and enabled the debugger in development, but nothing changes. Even after a restart.
Running on Ubuntu 12.10.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
The issue I have is quite annoying, if I can use such a word in a development stage . After each restart, the network is being forgotten, so I have to switch to the airplane mod off and on.
@pt0: This is a known issue, if I can say that. I experience this too, though not after every restart. I think it's a problem we can live with.
Since the update to Android 5.1, both the D and E builds, my location based smart lock has been very finicky and rarely works correctly. Prior to 5.1, it was extremely reliable, accurate, and one of my favorite features. Has anyone else noticed this issue since upgrading? Perhaps more importantly, has anyone found a fix or work around to get it working? Thanks in advance.

Hey guys, I have successfully modified the firmware 1.03 for NEX4100 in order to flash on my NEX4000. Long story short it worked! however the ONLY feature that does not work is the BT Audio connection. I can't stream audio or mic with this firmware.
Android Auto works though. My original thread on AVIC411 is here.
http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/80945-upgrading-nex4000-to-nex4100-work-in-progress/
I am wondering if there is anyone here that is willing to dive into the firmware with me to see if we can't fix this one last problem. If someone is interested in helping me complete this transition it would be much appreciated and would make a TON of people happy as I am so close to having it 100% functional. Also please feel free to discuss this here as well as I feel the conversation might move faster here at XDA.
Man, you deserve a cookie Awesome job, for sure there are a lot of peoples that will appreciate it

Thanks, it was easier than I thought at first, I over did it the first time around. I went ahead and posted my method on the forum above since its relatively straight forward however the ONLY problem at the moment is BT Audio. It seems the BT Audio toggle option in the NEX menu is locked in the "off" position and this setting is apart of the USERDATA folder of the FW update and I can't / don't know how to read this file (its a .prj format).
If anyone here with a smarter brain than I is willing to take a look at that file and see if there is anything that indicates we can fix this please let me know!
Android Auto Conversation
I have the pioneer AVH-X4700BS if it's any way you could make it work on that unit as well I'll be glad to try and help figure out some things as far as bugs or kinks that need to be ironed out. I've looked for the firmware update online but it's no where to be found and pioneer has no logical explanation as to why they didn't update at 2014/2015 models(I've called and asked) so I'll definitely contribute any way that I can.
Yeah get it to work on AVIC models while you're at too please ?

Any chance you or someone else can reupload the firmware for the 4000/4100 update?
I ended up trying this myself by downloading both sets of firmware and renaming the files via a bash shell script. The update went fine on my head unit, but like everyone else, I had no Bluetooth audio. This is so frustrating. Out of desperation, I even tried the "150" files renamed to "140" while leaving Bluetooth firmware files out of the update completely. Still the same result.
Hi all, I'm certain this info can be found in tons of places on this forum, but I'm brand-new (first post, woo!) and that amount of info here is a little overwhelming.
So, first thing's first: Pumpkin's forum is crap, the one moderator there either doesn't allow posts about android upgrades or flatly denies it isn't possible (I know they're lying).
I have a Pumpkin RQ0248, using an RK3188 cpu and still running Android 4.4.4. I've learned here that it's also known as "MTCB-KLD6-v2.85". It seems like my car radio CAN be upgraded to Android 5.1 (which is awesome), but I'd just like to check some facts with the experienced folks here:
- I download an "Update.img" file to a... microSD card? USB? (Does it even matter? Pumpkin's site says microSD in the maps slot).
- I run the System update button (or whatever it's called) and select the above image file. Let it do it's thing. It'll reboot, at which point I do a factory setting reset? I believe so.
- The file I've downloaded is "KLD_LP_rk3188_p_2016_05_11", I think it's the right one, but I want to be certain. Perhaps there's an even newer one?
- While poking around (and getting confused) I saw some people claim their radio app sometimes would stop working? Is that a regular thing? I know how to enter the "factory" settings (using PW 126) and saw that some people just had to change their radio chip version? Is that trial and error or is there a specific one I should use for mine?
Thanks for all the help in advance! And sorry for the newbie questions!
Anyone? Please lend a hand... I'm very nervous about flashing (and possibly bricking) my car radio...

You need to take pictures of the pages in factory settings for later use. e.g radio and other settings.
What you have given so far concerning MCU it should be possible to upgrade. Don't touch MCU, only
ROM needs to be upgraded.
Also be sure you can get in to recovery. Important is also the screen size 800 or 1024. You have to pick the right one. If you don't
know go to play store and install an app that tells your screen size. It doesn't matter in which SD-slot you're upgrading from.
Normally we use the GPS-slot (left one).

ROM? I thought MCU was the important part that needed to be "flashed".
Can't post links to photos... not enough posts yet... Just tell me other info is required beyond what I posted originally?
I know my screen size is 480x800. Recovery mode, I don't know right now how to get enter it, but I know it exists (button combination held when booting).
Was the file I mentioned in my first post not the correct one to use?
The "official" response from the Pumpkin trash "tech" is that there is no real upgrade for my unit, but he provided a link for me to try it (aka removing any responsibility for bricking the radio). So full of crap, I've already seen RQ0248's being sold online with Android 5.1
If you haven't figured this out yet...here you go. I believe you and I have exactly the same unit. I actually read your thread with Jammy and his responses. HAHA. He isn't much help. I actually flashed what he provided to you and it booted, but the resolution was all off. I think that was for a 800X480 unit.
Pretty simple:
Download the latest V2.97 MCU image file for KLD6: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3246386
and download the latest Malaysk Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69366390&postcount=860
I just put them both onto a USB flash drive, booted into recovery, and flashed them. After flashing I wiped data again and flashed them again, and wiped data one more time. First boot can take some time, but it's working flawlessly now.

Yeah, don't get me started with that forum over there... I shiver in disdain with my entire experience there.
TBH, Im like 99% certain my radio is 800x480 (we ARE talking about the RQ0248 right?). I'm still running the v2.91 MCU with the stock image "that person" gave me. And at very least, most of my issues with the radio have improved since doing so: My FM radio reception seems a little clearer, and the Bluetooth audio quality (streaming from spotify on my phone) is also quite a bit better.
That being said, everything about the 5.1.1 OS i'm running is HIDEOUS. The home screen and radio app particularly are just so ugly, aesthetically-speaking. I wasn't about to push my luck on the other forum though: it was hard enough to get an official response to fix my software bugs in the first place.
So, question time!
1) What does MCU v2.96 offer vs v2.91?
2) What does the Malaysk ROM offer vs the stock 5.1.1?
3) Does the Malaysk offer different skins? Customization?
4) Is there some way to improve the functionality of the built-in radio/music apps? (ex: no ID3 tags from MP3s... I'm pretty sure my MP3 player from 2002 has ID3 tags, this radio does not).
Thanks for answering! I had almost given up hope for this forum, it seems very popular in some areas, but this section seems to have much less in the way of activity.
Looking forward to hearing back!

I'm not sure what the benefit is of the 2.96, but it's newer so it must be better! That was just the latest so that's what I used. THere are a ton of benefits so you should read the thread....but here are a few: Malaysk offers quite a few optimizations, built in root, customization including skinned apps and radios, and MOST importantly in my opinion is the FUSE support...which means the full 16gb of system space are available to use for apps. You won't run out of space again. Yes there are other music apps included in his ROM as well, but I haven't used them much so I can't really speak to their functionality...but I'm sure it's better than the stock app.
But, do the new music apps work with the steering wheel controls?
That pumpkin forum is ridiculous lol yes im after a factory looking stable rom with fuse the origional firmware that came with the 2.85 mcu worked flawlessly but it double booted so i tried custom firmware when he sent me the original firmware again, it wasnt the same it didnt even boot properly with 2.85 i had to update the mcu to 2.91 for the firware to even become useable

Can I get an answer to this? The music app is terrible in terms of supporting things like ID3 tags and the like.
Don't even get me started on the 5.1.1 radio app, never seen something so hideous.
So I really want to know if there are alternative apps out there, or at very least better skins, for the garbage apps that Pumpkin dishes out.
Side Note: How good is the android auto integration in these head units? I've never tried it myself.... But Android auto is quite pretty to look at, and I really wouldn't mind tethering my phone via USB cable to my car radio if it meant a better overall experience. That being said though, things like the steering wheel control absolutely MUST function with android auto tether/mirror link/whatever it's called too.
Thanks in advance for anyone that replies! It's unfortunate that so few people do reply here, and this forum has been far more helpful than any other I've used so far.

Pumpkin is a seller only, there is no such thing as a "Pumpkin RQ0248", its a Klyde unit. I m guessing you havent bothered to read the wiki, if you did youd find a load more info and realise that that your unit is the same as any other Klyde unit no matter what it looks like on the outside or who you buy it from (Eonon, Pumpkin, Erisin ) and that its also so similar to any other MTCB or MTCC head unit made by the 10 odd manufacturers who produce these units, that it can use the same software as all of them.
I m also guessing that you dont read or look in the main threads in the 4 MTCB/C forums either, cos youd know all about the custom ROMs and modified apps that are available.
I m guessing neither did the OP or he wouldnt have opened the thread in the first place, we cant have a thread open for every made up model number by every seller of all 10 manufacturers, there would be literally 1000s of thread all with the same content. All the info for this unit is the same for any other MTCB/C unit.

Oh look everyone! I've found the @#$%.
Kind replies are far more helpful than sarcastic, snide, rude and jerk replies. Instead of replying next time, I'd prefer you not reply at all.
There are actual helpful people here that could explain these to me nicely, and have been doing so thus far. These forums are MASSIVE - I don't have the time to read for hours and possibly put myself on the Wrong track if I happen to miss some important details. Also, unless I somehow was able to magically learn what a Klyde radio is on my own, I had never heard of that detail before. Maybe a nice person could've explained it to me.
But kind isn't you. So please go away and allow the nice people to speak.

I didnt write anything that was unkind, snide, sarcastic rude or jerk, I simply gave you some information about where to look to avail yourself of some basic info about your headunit, I didnt have to, I wasnt paid for it, yet I did, in my book, thats "kind". What you require, it seems is someone to spend their time re-typing out whats already been written in other threads into this thread, because you cant be bothered to either look for it/read it yourself (known on xda as "spoon feeding").
It seems that you also havent bothered to read the post I just made properly either, because if you had, you would have seen me refer to "the wiki" (also linked to in the sticky in the very first post of this forum AND in my signature !) and would realise that you dont need any "magic" to learn what a "Klyde" is, you just need to read something mentioned TWICE on the screen in front of you !
In your previous post you also complained that "so few people reply here", if you read what I wrote in my reply, you ll realise why that is - theyve all read the basic info and are replying in threads that apply to ALL MTCB/C headunits.
On xda youre supposed to read stuff and find out for yourself and if you cant find the info you need or dont understand something or need help with something then there are loads of people (including me - look at my thanks meter) who will happily help you. But its clear that you havent read a thing, nothing, not one bit, not the sticky in the general section, not the Q&A section's first thread, not the wiki, nothing, diddly squat. So to help you in the way you want, I would have to write whats already been written and I aint doin that - you read at least the basics of it and ask questions if you dont understand something or cant find it.

That pumpkin forum is ridiculous lol yes im after a factory looking stable rom with fuse the origional firmware that came with the 2.85 mcu worked flawlessly but it double booted so i tried custom firmware when he sent me the original firmware again, it wasnt the same it didnt even boot properly with 2.85 i had to update the mcu to 2.91 for the firware to even become useable

Sounds like the ROM you were given was more up to date ROM - new features often have to be enabled by updating the MCU too, as that controls a lot of functions. Its also because you now have an MTCC MCU - 2.85 is MTCB, 2.91 is MTCC and older ROMs dont work with older MTCB MCUs.
Yup it is now a mtcc unit ... im actually using kld9 2.98 i think, i found now my new rom is also double booting after an app install , so its certain apps that cause double booting. Just outa interest what rom are you using? (if you have a kylde unit)

I m using booroondook's ROM. When you say double booting do you mean it boots, shuts down then reboots ?
Basically boots up as it should , then after about 5 seconds boot logo appears then boots again doesnt shut/power down , it started after i downloaded an app called virtual dyno mobile, i will try the rom your using

Thought so, not heard of that before, strange.
Yeah its common across the pumpkin forum. I dont know where they are getting their roms from but they are terrible.

They get their ROMs from Klyde, the manufacturers of the units !
