Hello,
Bumping this since I'm at same point.
Find the OS must be Linux but nothing else. Would need a firmware to upload to the car which let me exit the MBUX software to check the OS and all files, any clues the readers ?

Dealer Mode?

Yes I did and there is nothing really interesting in it, exception the audio settings.

I did notice they have a setting for Dashcam and it’s subscription based. Wonder if there is a way to activate it.

I think the only way to activate it and bypass some securities is to go through the OBD.

Anyone?

Anyone have any knowledge of hacking this system yet? Furthermore anyone know where the SIM card slot is for these cars? Or is it an E-Sim?

From what I read it is an E-SIM.

Hello guys,
If this Mbux system is the new head unit on the A-Class I can confirm from an inside source that it is Linux indeed.
I cannot say much more since I am not directly involved.
As to eSIM, it most probably have such a thing. At least the previous systems (like the one installed on the E-class) have an eSIM. So I see to reason why this one shouldn't have one too.
All the best!

You are right, you can see the specs here : https://media.daimler.com/marsMedia...lance-The-key-data-on-MBUX.xhtml?oid=32705799
There are probably a lot of interesting things in it, but how.
The only way I see is through OBD.

Hi, tomorrow I'll take my new A class so I take a sit here ... I like to take advantage of all digital things...

It an esim like Opel

Anyway to see the e-sim id? Currently in Canada and it appears Mercedes has a deal with AT&T but pricing for Canadian users is ridiculous.
Want to see if I can get it activated with another provider or what potentials options I maybe able to work out as I cannot share data from my phone plan in the car which is also a shame.

[q] best nfc app

Hey does anyone know what the best nfc app is..I want to scan my credit card and then use it to pay for items at store with my phone..is this what NFC is for?
I also would like to scan my badge for work to get me into security doors..It would be nice to just put my phone up to door to get in rather than always pulling out my badge...does nfc do this and how??
Just wondering if all this is possible..sorry for the noob questions but running Jedi x6 and notice i have NFC on my device and can enable it....Thanks for anyone's help and if this has been asked before sorry...searched articles and couldn't find answer....Thanks again...

As for security doors even if there is an app it may not be something your employer would want you doing.

Yes you can as long as your not on verizon. Also the security door card readers don't do nfc.

Pumpkin and maxidot

Hello all. I bought this radio for my Skoda Fabia. I have a few question. My maxidot screen does not show file names, only track 1, track2, etc...if I use something else, like poweramp, it just shows OTHER MEDIA. Any way of fixing this? Pumpkin support doesn't have a clue.
Also, can I install Malaysk ROM for this radio? Since it has many hardware buttons, will they still work?
Thank you

You need to provide a picture of your system screen to be able say yes or no.
Normally yes, but you never know, since Pumpkin is only a reseller.

Battery status of Bluetooth device

Hi guys,
I would like to know if there's a possibility to display the battery status of a connected Bluetooth device on the Oneplus 3? Natively or via a third party app? Ideally for me, it should work on the stock ROM but if necessary I would flash a custom one if it would only be possible that way.
Thanks in advance :good:

Hi
Check an app called BatON (by limitium)
Have not used it personally though.

Thanks for the suggestion but it doesn't seem to work with my specific pair of headphones :/ If that means that they don't send battery information to the phone I probably can't get it to work with any solution.

Sorry to hear that.
FWIW after suggesting the app to you, I did try it out. It seemed to work with my pair of blue tooth headphones during the limited time I used it..
Going by the comments about the app in the play store, it looks like the usage is limited based on the manufacturer of the blue tooth device....
Just to close this topic: This feature was released in Open Beta 19 and for me it works great!
how to enable that??? by default its not showing when connected......... im on latest beta

How do you activate it? I have a watch connected and it's not showing anything
I didn't have to activate it. For me it just worked. Your Bluetooth device still has to support sending its battery information to the phone. In this months Open Beta update there were some fixes for this feature. Maybe it works for you now?
Edit: grammar

Is MirrorLink (in-car) possible with Galaxy Note 10+ 5G?

I wondered if MirrorLink was possible with the latest Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ 5G?
(This isn't the same as Android Auto which almost every Android device is capable of. MirrorLink is quite an exclusive feature)
The official Mirrorlink website is very slow to update and by the time it does Note 10 will be old news. So I'd like to know if it can do it now? Can anyone confirm if it does or doesn't?
Plus points for those who've actually done it.
Thank you!!

yes ,I have a note 10+ and mirrorlink works fine
I actually use ARU unrooted with it on a Microsoft wireless display adapter(mirrorlink)
Yep. Here's a screenshot from my Note 10+
Hi, I’ve been hunting all over the web hoping to see how I can mirror any app to my cars infotainment screen with a new Note 10+5g from Verizon. I’ve been using the iPhone jailbroken for a few years now so I’m behind on Android compared to back in the day when I was deep into Android adding roms or simply rooting my Android device. If I bought this new Note 10+5g from Verizon, I am hoping to stream a movie app to the car’s screen even while the car is moving for passengers to watch. The car has CarPlay and Android Auto and the screen also has a “projection” icon because it’s a Chevy. I stumbled upon this post and you sound like you know how to do this. Can you verify how I can go forward keeping in mind I will be buying the Verizon variant of the phone? I just need to be certain this is possible or the phone won’t work for my needs. Thanks in advance for any assistance at all. Would be very grateful. Also, just out of curiosity, do you happen to know if the Verizon variant can be rooted? I’ve found no easy answer because you never know if people are talking about the Exynos version in the development posts. Thank you so much for possibly answering.
Solution
Hey folks,
I'm new. Came in via Google for this very problem.
I've read the posts but saw nowhere a solution or remedy.
If there's any info available I just got the Note10+ 5gcand I kept saying to everyone. There's gotta be a way to mirror by now.... Etc etc
Anyhow if anyone could let me know how to do this that would be great.
Thank you,
Muntsy

My Galaxy Note 10+ 5G used to work with mirrorlink, but when I upgraded to Androd 10, mirrorlink stopped working. Samsung were no use, saying that my car was the problem. In the end I downgraded the OS to Android 9 to get mirrorlink working again.

What is this feature??

Guys.
I just realized there is a new feature on my phone.
I never allowed it to be installed, phone never asked if I wanted it and I have all updates turned off. All updates!
Stock, no root, Jan 2020 firmware.
You can find in under settings/google and it will be the very first position.
What is that?
How do I remove it?

From the very first day I switched on the phone.
What the hell?

This is outrageous.
That's my phone now and I should be able to do whatever I want with it and block whatever I want.
They should have asked if I wanted any kind of f**king update.
You do not own the software on your phone. Please review the terms and conditions set my Google.

It's something that was being developed months ago, it makes your device search for devices in the background periodically for potentially COVID-19 infected people.
If someone is infected, they have to report it on their phone and it flags other users around if you're near someone who had/has COVID-19 or not.
It uses Bluetooth

Yeah. Good thing I still have Nokia 3310
its a framework, it needs an app to work with it to be of any use . without the app from your local country etc it does nothing.
How can you be so sure? How do you know it doesn't work in the background anyway?

How can you be sure little green aliens are not running the world? Do you have Bluetooth on ? do you track what data you receive on Bluetooth? its a framework module...not a secret conspiracy to take over the world... ( again )

Its a framework. That means, apps sit on top on the frame ... like building a house, you need a base ( frame ) . This " Base" lets others build whatever house they want on top ... the actual "base" does nothing, how do I know... its a framework. if you are so paranoid, stop all you're google, amazon frameworks and see what happens, spoilers, your phone won't work. Next, stop all the frameworks in windows if you use that .. spoilers, it won't work ....then put everything into a box and leave it there
