Hello all,
I'm trying to get my G2 paired up properly with my new bluetooth kit for my VW. My car had bluetooth before and everything worked fine. I upgraded to a new version that has the ability for rSAP (although I'm not currently using it) or HFP. Now, I'm having a ton of issues with PBAP.
When I pair my phone to the car, a notification appears on the phone asking me if I want to give permission for PBAP. If I ignore it, all of my contacts transfer without issue. If I give PBAP permission, no contacts with email addresses transfer (over half of my phone book).
My questions are:
If PBAP does NOT have permission, what protocol is the phone using to send the contacts to my car's radio?!
Is there a way on the phone to check what has PBAP permission?
Thanks in advance!
Oh, and I'm currently (this minute) running Cyanogen 7.0.3 fresh so I can ignore the PBAP since I can't find a way to remove previously accepted PBAP pairs.
Bump! I'm thinking I need the smarts of a ROM developer to help out with this!
I have a Galaxy Note 2 running Jedi Master 13. Every single thing is awesome about this phone...
EXCEPT:
I have a Lincoln with the new MyLincoln Touch radio. It supports text messaging ONLY with ICS or more specifically, Bluetooth 3.x. The Bluetooth MAP (messaging access profile) is different in 4.0 and thus not supported. Is there any way to downgrade said Bluetooth version?
I only use BT stereo and phone headsets normally, never use file transfers so the 4.0 advantages wouldn't affect me (I hope).
Thanks in advance for the input! :good:
Did u try and call the dealership, maybe ur car has update they can do

Yes, yes I did. I was in touch with the people that make the MyLincoln Touch device that works with Microsoft Sync. I have the newest version, which supports up to Android 4.1.1 and the Bluetooth 3.0 software, which has advanced compatibility with MAP. The Bluetooth 4.0 doesn't work the same and makes it lose the ability to do SMS from the car itself. Ugh.
I was hoping I could somehow put the old Bluetooth stack onto my phone to make it work properly. As of right now, Ford/Lincoln say that only Android ICS' Bluetooth stack is compatible. I feel better than the Apple community, they don't even get pictures to transfer. At least It's cool having the address book picture on my phone.
So can it be downgraded or not?
I am also interested in this (for another device though). Is it possible in principle?
No this stuff is way too complex due to the new advancement of spamsung Knox controling everything, we have very little control of our devices any more
Hi all,
New to xda-developers and after watching the n00b video I was a little hesitant to post however I searched & rang my mother as I was advised in the video.
Now my question is, Seeing as the N7 & N7.2 is such a popular device to install into a vehicle as a head unit/on-board computer replacement I was wondering if there were any plans on a Bluetooth hands-free application of sorts with the correct profiles.
I have an iPhone5 cellular phone & would LOVE to pair it to my N7.2 and use the N7.2 as a Hands-free device with my contact list/phone dialler etc.
I know the Parrot Asteroid Smart has this capability, But have not found anyone with a little more knowledge attempting to move the cert & install the software on another device with the required drivers etc.
I am running CyanogenMod 10.2 nightly on my N7.2 so I have USB-DAC working but would love this ability or help to achieve this.
Thanks Heps

EDIT:
Does anyone have any HFP working?
I tried googling already, but the response to this issue seem to be pretty useless. Was hoping someone here has an idea with how to fix this.
On June image, Pure Nexus latest, SuperSU 2.82, ElementalX latest.

I'm having the same problem on my Galaxy Note8. I know this is a thread for the Google Pixel but every Android phone I see with 7.0 Nougat is having this problem. I've googled as well and still no solution. I'm unable to pair any Bluetooth device when I'm at work or in town because there are at least 50 Bluetooth devices that show up. BestBuy has a lot of demos. Hopefully someone can figure out a solution. I've posted a screenshot of the only Bluetooth device near me, but while at work like I said there's at least 50 devices all just showing MAC address. Only devices that show up with a name that aren't paired are smartphones. But I need to see which model of headphones I'm pairing up to and don't have access to 50+ MAC Addresses. Hope someone has some input on this... Or hopefully Android 8.0 fixes this.
Same happening on Sony Xperia XZ1 with Oreo.... all of a sudden only shows MAC addresses and won't let me even connect to them...
Hi, I've got the same issue with Samsung Note 4 (N910S) Android 6.0.1.
I fixed this by install the update of the following services:
Link Sharing
Android System WebView
Samsung Push Service
ANT Radio Service
ANT+ Plugins Service
I guess the Radio & Plugins Service out of date might be the main cause for such issue but don't wanna try to dig more deeper
(@Admins I think this is the correct forum to post this in, but please feel free to move it if I've chosen the wrong forum. I'm still figuring out exactly what category my device is in)
TL;DR - Trying to figure out if it's possible to get an external USB Bluetooth dongle working on my radio instead of the built-in one, so I can connect to all types of bluetooth devices, not just streaming audio
Hi all,
I'm searching for a possible solution that would allow me to connect my Android radio (AUTOPUMPKIN AA0495B, using a PX5, MCU CSN2_06252019_163051) to a Dual XGPS160 device. I installed this stereo in my track car for the purpose of running Harry's Lap Timer; currently the app is running perfectly, with a wired OBDLink EX in use for OBDII data and also connecting to a GoPro via WiFi to control the camera. The last piece of the puzzle is I want to get an XGPS160 connected for better GPS data capture (10Hz vs 1Hz of the radio's GPS). After hours spent trying to get it to pair and connect to the device, I emailed AUTOPUMPKIN support and they confirmed that this radio cannot connect to such devices, as the Bluetooth module in the radio is essentially a glorified bluetooth headset and can only connect for streaming audio (I haven't been able to determine the model number of the bluetooth module it uses). My hope is there is a USB Bluetooth dongle that I could plug into the radio and then have the radio use that instead, which would then allow it to connect to the XGPS160 (and any other type of bluetooth device).
When I go into the Car Settings on the radio, it has the following options available for bluetooth:
IVT i140
IVT i145
FC6000TN
GOC_BC5
KD6
KD6 is what is selected from the factory. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is this list is basically the different bluetooth hardware models the radio has driver support for? If I'm correct on that, then I'm also guessing if I were to plug in a bluetooth dongle using one of the other models and change this setting, the radio would use that instead of the built-in bluetooth? I don't use the bluetooth audio streaming or phone tethering feature, so I don't care if I lose those features if it allows me to connect the radio to the XGPS160. As long as the WiFi keeps working I'm ok with it.
Sorry if I'm asking any stupid questions; I'm a programmer by background, but even after hours of reading this forum my knowledge about the hardware in these Android radio units is still very limited. That being said, I'm not opposed to modifying config files to get this working. I have Android Developer mode enabled and I can connect to the radio via ADB; I spent some time looking at the file structure and various config files so modifying those if needed shouldn't be a problem for me.
thanks!
There was another (lengthy) thread on the subject of bluetooth dongles around here somewhere. You will have to do a search for it. If I remember correctly you had to open your head unit and physically disconnect your original bt module... and even with that there was limited success in getting the thing to actually work....and of those who claimed they did get it to work also said they couldn't get anything more to connect to the dongle than what the original BT could handle
It's too bad too. I have a sound processor on my system which uses an app through BT on my phone to make adjustments and I was HOPING it would connect to the head unit. It won't
BTW... your obdlink ex usb will also work with Torque (Pro). I use it with torque and it's blazing fast and reliable.... a lot more than a BT connection!

No; it must be a specific BT type MD725 realtek device. No, you cant connect all manner of devices due to the hacked BT implementation.

Yeh I found that threat in my searches, but no one in there quite mentioned this specific scenario (Selecting one of the other options in the Bluetooth settings) so I wasn't sure. And I'm definitely not opening up the unit and cutting on the hardware; hacking config files I can do all day long, but I have no skills when it comes to soldering so I'd probably just destroy the radio in the process of trying to cut that module :laugh:
Yeh I've run the OBDLink EX with Torque as well for data logging temps on track and it worked flawlessly for that as well. BT is definitely more convenient, especially since most are running apps from their phones, but if you have a dedicated radio like these then it's a no-brainer to permanently wire up a USB device.

When you say "hacked BT implementation" I'm assuming you mean they don't use the standard Bluetooth stack built into the Android OS? That would make sense, as when I try to do anything with bluetooth from the standard Bluetooth settings menu, it doesn't do anything, doesn't see any devices available for pairing, or anything else. You can only see other devices and pair to them from the PUMPKIN Bluetooth app; the funny thing is it will go through the first steps and show the XGPS160 as being paired, but none of the apps that use the GPS actually see it as a paired device (my OBD dongle shows up, but not the GPS).
I don't understand why they didn't just use standard bluetooth that's already part of the OS, rather than use some hacky custom solution
Quick update since the last post. Spent some time tonight on google looking up the information I could find on those other bluetooth modules in the list of options on my stereo. Based on technical manuals and FCC documents, it appears the FC6000TN and BC5 are audio-only bluetooth chips that only support A2DP profile (basically the same as what I have now with the KD6); Now the IVT i140 and IVT i145 on the other hand appear to be full fledged bluetooth chips, and do support the SPP (Serial Port Protocol) that is needed by the XGPS160 (and many other bluetooth profiles) so in theory that would work. Unfortunately after searching for both of those, all I can find are ones in bare module form (i145 and i140) that would have to be soldered onto the board (assuming the pins are even compatible) and there are no USB versions of them that I could just plug in to my radio's free USB-A slot. The only thing even remotely close that comes up in Google in USB form is this adapter and I'm pretty sure it's not based on the i140 or i145.
Given that my soldering skills are non-existent, it seems I'm pretty much out of luck on getting this to work. Disappointing for sure, as I would gladly have paid more $ for the unit to come with a fully functional bluetooth module instead of this hacked audio only junk they put in it :/

Unfortunately, It wouldn't matter which BT you use from the supported BT types, BT implementation is non-standard to do stuff like act as a BT hands-free.

Yeh, that's extremely disappointing Does anyone know of any Android based radio units that have full working bluetooth? I don't mind buying a new unit for the car if I know it will work with everything.
The old intel sofia units (mtcd as well) had the bluetooth & wifi ibtegrated into the soc...and they had a standard (or at least more profiles) implemented

Bummer they don't make those units anymore :/ Then again, they may not have been powerful enough to run my track timer apps anyway.
