broken camera kjam

I believe my camera is broken - black screen. I'm not sure but I think it's happened after I upgraded to wm6.
Does anyone had the same problem and was able to fix it or the hardware is ****ed up and there's nothing to do?
Thanks

no....
honestly I don't believe that an upgrade to wm6 can "break" your camera...
... and then there is a simple test that you can try: come back to the original shipped i-mate rom (ftp://ftp.clubimate.com) and you see what happens.
but.... why don't you give us some more infos?
like: is a G3/G4 locked or unloked, IPL/SPL version...
hi
tommy

well, I did that. I restore the original rom and the camera still didn't work.
My phone is G3 locked and I installed on top wm6 from faria (a nice one!).
Of course it could just be that my camera gave up. Since I was not using it regularly and at some point after the upgrade to wm6 I saw the problem it was one of the link.
Can the hardware of the camera be affected by the overclocking?

hey~
i think i may have a similar problem (but the explination doesn't go in to deep detail)
when i try to snap a picture, about half the time it will snap....half the time it just goes black (the screen) and no matter what....it WILL NOT SAVE the photo.
i've tried changing where it saves the photos (main memory or sd card) as well as changed all the settings one by one (megapixels, fine:super fine, snapping type [full press etc] etc. etc. etc. i also tried changing settings via the advance config tool often mention onthe forums)
i haven't updated the rom (stock at&t rom is installed....i'm savy but not savy enuf to change the rom lol) nor have i updated windows (it always gives me an error...says it cant connect to the server or something, oh well i don't much care for micro$ucks anyways lol)
it's running windows 6.1 professional...i have plenty of memory free and hadn't installed anything new or tweaked any settings the day it stoped working....
any ideas?
~j
ps.
oh yeah, oddly...the video record function still works....

Camera might be out of the connecting socket - open your device and make sure it's connected. Failing that - the replacement cameras can be purchased fairly cheaply.

thanks i'll give that a try and let ya know if it works!
i appreciate the very fast reply it's nice to know im not the only insomniac out there lol

Moved since problem is not ROM related.

Haha, I am 18 hours or so ahead of you.

thank you and sorry i placed my question in the wrong area....where has it been moved to though? :s (while ive been a member her for a while, i am still new to posting...ill admit i usually read...but i hope to change that )
~j

No worries. Let us know when you get it fixed and how.

hey all~
enigma....now i see it's enigmaNZ so new zeeland i assume is where you are....so maybe im a lone insomniac lol
jwzg....thanks again
all....as to the suggestion of opening the phone case....well with my nerve disease i'm going to have to have a friend do that since my hands are often no where near steady...ill let ya all know if that works.
mean time i may also look for maybe some other camera software....like i said, it will snap the photo but it refuses to SAVE the photo....so maybe the software is corrupt who knows....ill try it all
~j

hey all~
so i dove into my system registry tonite....i tweaked some things, changed the localtion of where stuff gets saved, changed some 1's to 0's an vice versa an it now seems to work....hope it remains working!
~j

Must have been a bad camera package.

jwzg~
yeah who knows, i'm just happy it's working again

Guys I have a AL-C0241 and I just installed Malaysk's firmware.
I stupidly did not check my MCU type before hand, thinking that I would keep the existing MCU if I only updated the image.
Everything seemed to install fine, but when I look in the about tablet section, the first few lines are blank, including the MCU
And now I am getting no sound from the radio. Everything else including the wifi and GPS seems to be working OK, but no sound is a problem.
Can anyone tell me the original MCU code of the AL-C0241 ? This is the autopumpkin 7 inch with no buttons on it, just a flat screen.

you can see my entries on the wiki, it's there

So I think mine is bricked now.
After loading Malaysk 3188/1024 firmware I no longer have:
*sound
*gps
*radio
Still working
*wifi
Any idea what I should do to try and fix it? I tried a few things with the reset button but was unable to achieve factory reset. Should I start trying some of the available MCUs?

Ask Pumpkin to send you an image file of your MCU and Firmware. I just send them an email requesting the same for my unit. I told them that I wanted to back it up and can't unless I am rooted.
Let's see what happens.

Worth a try, I will do that.
Would it be possible to get an image of the stock SD card and use that to revert to factory? perhaps nleitao can take a copy of his if he still has access to the insides of his unit?
I'm pretty annoyed with myself, hopefully I don't have to buy another!

I have been exchanging some emails with them, because I was going to do what you did, but only after having the factory image... This is what I got:
Email said:
Hello Nuno,
Thanks for your email.
We attached the user manual for the AL-C0241,please check
And about the newer firmware and mcu, once we get it, we would release it on our official support www.news.autopumpkin.com
Thanks for your patience.
Have a nice day.
Kind regards,
Colin

Thank you so much! downloading now, will post results!
---------- Post added at 12:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:08 PM ----------
Just found a couple of youtube videos, from the official pumpkin channel "pumpkin car stereo support" where they show a software and MCU update for the AL-C0241 !
No download link however! Search AL-C0241 on you tube if interested.
Also checked their blog, no update there
edit: Can't test their firmware because my USBs no longer work, along with most of my hardware.
Its not looking good for me :| Maybe I can find a way to get them working on Malaysk's rom but it's a bit of a catch 22. I can get internet access on the device, however, so all hope is not lost.

Nop, it's an SD card slot

Sorry guys I have no results as yet, got a bit busy last night
I have to rig up a molex connector so I can power the device up while im inside my house, it should be as simple as connecting the yellow 12v rail and the earth to the harness, so hopefully I will be able to inform you of results before long
Thanks for the support

Fixed!
Thanks for all the help
I used the ROM posted earlier in this thread and the internal SDslot and I eventually got everything working again, I much preferred Malaysk's ROM but couldn't manage to get the MCU updated until after I did the ROM update.
I now have alex v1.1.5 however, I used to have v1.1.7, so that's kinda annoying but I can't see the difference right now anyway. I will write to auto pumpkin and try to get the latest image.
I was also not able to get it to power up using my computer power supply. I connected the 12v to the 12v and the earth to the earth but it wouldn't fire up, super annoying.
Now I am just going to enjoy using it for a while

You should had connect the red and the yellow to the 12v...
My apologies to the OP for the kind of hijack but I believe this is the thread with most info for this radio.
I'm having problems with my radio. The screen seems to have a bad contact somewhere, making it complete useless to try to work with it. The odd thing is it never happens in the first 20 minutes ater a cold start. Does someone have an idea what is happening here?

Second problem. I'm completely unable to pair the radio's Bluetooth with whatever devices. I just cant start the pairing process from the radio side.

That screen flicker doesn't look good Is your warranty void due to opening the device? Could be a hardware fault.
As for the bluetooth pairing, I think mine just worked the first time and I haven't looked at it since. I will have another look later and see if mine is doing the same thing

Today I received this answer from them
Support Email said:
Thanks for your feedback.
We're so sorry for the inconvenience and trouble.
1) Firstly sorry for my wrong info about the instruction before,for this new Android product, currently it has no searching function in the built-in Bluetooth. About dropping the built-in Bluetooth app to pair the Bluetooth OBDII with other Bluetooth app, sorry we did not test it before and not sure the operation. However, this product can directly pair the the Wifi OBDII which is tested by us
2) Regarding this issue, frankly we didn't meet it before, if you're good at electronic, it's ok to open the radio by removing screws around the frame then check out the inside connection and we would still promise the warranty.
If we can be of any assistance,please feel free to tell us,thank you!
Best regards,
Colin

So two things I learned. The crappy Bluetooth App can't connect to other devices. The second is I still have warranty after open the cover and check the internal cables.
Yeah, I suspect hardware fault. It only start happening after 20, 25 minutes after power up. something heats up and puff...

gv08s

Hello,
I have bought the gv08s, and i am very happy with it.
Nice and good design, nice screen and good battery.
But only bad thing is bluetooth connection.
It is very weak and lose connection when i am like, 3 meters away from phone
Is there any solution for it, like going in secret menu or flashing a new rom on it?
Thanks

It could be yur phone here, check the distance connecting your phone by Bluetooth to the computer, you'll see if the distance is the right one, or check with another phone, just then you can judge
There is no settings or firmware for powering BT, *#3646633# or *#993646633# - in engineer menu you can change protocols, but this will not help you at all

The phone is good, its a new phone.
When i connect my phone with my bluetooth speaker or another phone ,i can go much further then 10 meters.
I read somewhere that the bluetooth is a problem with this watch.
I was thinking,maybe someone has a solution for this.

You could try another firmware but I'm not sure if is compatible Aplus GV08, I wouldn't try, if the bootloader is different you brick your watch forever

Get please in phone info (*#8375# or *#998375#) and give me version, branch and build time
As well, get in engineer menu (*#6346633# or *#993646633#) and there has to be some hardware info, check if there you have the flash ID
If something is incompatible in the best case the flashing will not start, the worst your bootloader will load wrong file, and phone gets bricked when tries conn between hardware and drivers...imagine, phone bricked and the modem (com port) is full inactive . . .
Very important, before any flashing do Readback from 0x00000000 to 0x01000000 - in this way if something is not working (is happening even for phones from same series because different hardware) you can go back to original firmware
Now I read that this watch has display IPS and camera off 2MP, If it is true then is not the same PCB even if the processor is the same

Hello guys!
Today I received my pressumably GV08S watch that I bought a couple of weeks ago from Aliexpress. The goddamn seller said on the description that the watch featured a Mediatek 6160A processor, but, in reality, I think I ve received a knock off. Why am I saying that? Well, the damn thing has a spartan menu, there are no themes options, like I saw in some reviews on youtube, there is no notification bar when sliding from up to down and the examples may continue. I had an argument with the seller who said the watch is original, I got agravated so I am gonna open up a dispute...that little s..h...i...t. got me out of my minds. The problem is that being nervous, I tried to flash other rom on the watch and I saw that it only accepts MTK 6261 software in the limit of 32 mb. Being nervous, I didn t make a backup of the original software so now the watch is kinda useless. Can u help me with the original version of the software? This are some tehnical date which I extracted from the secret menu:

mediatek 6735 stuck in start up screen

Help all, While trying to get root access (I managed temporary sofar), and removing some apps after that (as I still didn't got the desired result : have my custom launcher as default) the unit is stuck at startup.
It's running on android 7.0, model, for what it's worth ; an alps hla1280 *480, 4gb ram, 32gb storage.
Before this happened I tried to connect to the unit trough my laptop but never succeeded. Hope someone can help!
I already did a hard reset, and took the power off, but no result.

A friend of mine got tha same mt6735 from mekede but he has the real Android 9 (CPUZ)
I'm in same situation as you but without rooting...
Really wanna try to get a custom launcher to replace the actual one (with the white ball for menu) but i'm so scared to brick it like you... Hope someone gonna help you
Look like this CPU isnt really common on the server

Can't even use Carplay dongle lol my usb isn't recognized :/

What unit do I have?

Hi, I want to be able to update my firmware but it seems this is not a genuine unit from googling, I bought it off AliExpress a long time ago, was working great but now the control buttons are not all working, eg the back button doesn't go back anymore but brings up the settings like option button, done a factory reset but still the same, android auto hardly understand and commands, works find on phone when not connected to android auto, hoping an update might fix that but can't find anything, anyone any idea from the pictures?
Thanks

No, I would try to contact the seller and ask for help.
This firmware is completely unknown.

Odd ball

Ok, thanks, seller wasn't much help on AliExpress so I tho i give here a try if someone might came across one of these before

By the way... As I can read on your pics, the Android API is called 28. If it would be Android 10, you should read API29 in there.
That means, this is a fake Android 10 version.Instead this is an Android 9 version.
Doesn´t make things better I think.
It´s often a mess with the seller as they even don´t know what they are selling.
Hope that someone has already seen this kind of firmware/MCU, but I have no real hope.

Pardon my ignorance, but quote: "was working great" and "hoping an update might fix that" seem inconsistent. If it was working correctly, why would it need an 'upgrade' to fix it? Surely there is some other reason it is now not working correctly?

"was working great" but now the control buttons are not all working, eg the back button doesn't go back anymore but brings up the settings like option button, done a factory reset but still the same, android auto hardly understand and commands, works find on phone when not connected to android auto, "hoping an update might fix that but can't find anything, anyone any idea from the pictures?"
I'm not sure why you had to pick out the start and end of it and left out the rest

Calm down folks...
In most units you should be able to adapt the hardware buttons and touch buttons somewhere in the settings.
As I don´t know your specific unit, you need to search yourself... sorry to say.
At least, I don´t think that a firmware update would help here, as those settings are persisted.
So take your time and step through the internal settings of this unit. May be there is something hidden behind a PIN. If there is something like that, you need to try to get the PIN from the seller. They should know them.
...but be really careful not to change anything if you are not sure. Can make things seriously bad.

I have the pin and I have went in to settings for the buttons and dials, setting has not been changed and no matter which button settings I use, no difference
I'm calm alright dont worry, just dont understand the point and purpose of a reply that just picking the start and end of my post and completely ignored the rest.

Because the piece in between is irrelevant. If it was working fine then no update is needed unless you have installed or changed something since that is not compatible with the original firmware. If you have not, then the firmware has not changed itself to make something not work.
I'm sorry you cannot see the logic in that, I'll leave the thread now.
