Button lights.

My unit is a coolpumpkn KD-D1908 for a suzuki grand vitara.
The button lights are always on when the unit is powered on and they are always brighter than the surrounding lights.
Also there is no way to turn them off or dim them with the vehicle dimmer.

Iis there a hardware or software way to enable dimming.

My first idea was to disconnect the led positive lines and connect them to the vehicle's illumination wiring. Since its all 0-5v it should run the stereo led's just fine or i'll have to use a voltage converter to get the right brightness to match the rest of the surrounding lighting.

I think the only wire on the head unit for illumination has one function and that its an input to the mcu that in turn sends a signal to the rk3188 to dim the screen according to a preset software amount. So that's only an on and off setting.

I'm just looking for a way to make this unit behave like the factory unit :)

Thanks.

Cannot install PC Drivers

So, I'm trying to install TWRP on my Idol 3. I followed all the directions I've found. Basically I get to the point where I change the connection to the PC to the CD drive so that I can install the drivers. I go to install the drivers, and it fails every time. I've tried it on 3 different Windows PCs. I do have a mac at my disposal, would this be easier? I'm seriously going crazy trying to figure out why I can't root this phone! Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Fingerprint security problem

Has anyone else had a problem with the fingerprint security. When my phone is locked and on lock screen I have phone and camera app in the corners. If I open the phone app it doesn't ask for a fingerprint scan and I can make calls then if I back out of it the phone is unlocked never asking for a fingerprint or password. Why have the fingerprint for security if all you have to do is open the hone and then hit home button or back button.

[Q] missing bitmaps & drivers on dis nabi 2 device specific help plz

Plz pardon my rant but I need major helpppppppppp lol, I've spent days scouring this site & google to try to fix this myself. I've built pc's but delayed learning droid because it's worse then mickersoft from what I've seen. I babysit for a lady raising her 3 granddaughters, they don't have net & were only able to access a few things. Sooo I volunteered to add some games, I was so flabbergasted at the bloat, shear greed and limitations of both versions of dis ui. I wanted to just disable it to use a different launcher but nooo to easy. no good deed goes unpunished lol. I updated the stock to the current as of two weeks ago ota kitkat and it went down hill fast, the dis ui worked for the most part but it wouldn't let me in the settings that's on the nabi mode for no apparent reason.

So not being able to find much current info for dis version, I made the huge mistake of using kingroots apk. it chocked but then work fine except I still had the above problem. no matter what I tried to clean or debloat. I got stupid tired and did a factory reset it now won't boot fully. I only get a pop up loop even in safe mode of nabiSetup has stopped. I can only turn off but can access recovery and the fastboot etc! I give it wins this round lol.

I have tried both win 10 32 & 64bit I only got it to connect once, it said I unlocked the bootloader but nothing can find the device to reboot-bootloader thru adb or NabiLab, 15 sec abd and etc. I'm to tired to think straight and to new to this so I must be missing something. there has to be away to get droid back on it! I can usually access the tablet and the sd card thru win explorer but no matter witch drivers I've tried it will not connect properly or the drivers won't install fully even with drive sig disabled. so it has to be because of the bitmap error I found in recovery or because it won't fully boot to access the usb on the tablet??

cliff-notes
1. the devise will not fully boot I get a nabiSetup has stopped popup loop in normal & safe mode I can only shut it off.

2a I can still get in recovery I tried to flash it but I assume I was using the wrong file nothing would load, but noticed E: missing bitmap stage_empty & stage_fill it seems to be a common droid problem but no info to be found for this devise version.

2b In the device manager fastboot comes and goes or I see a USB device descriptor failed or set address I think it was and pdanet stalls. I'm gonna fdisk laptop again it's had way to many driver attempts to be sure that's some of problem not operator error or usb in a mood again.

3. being brain-dead tired & a droid newbieish. I can't get to the usb to play nice so I can't install twrp. I assume because of the usb drivers ie google and etc not showing up right in device mangr. no usb on nabi which I just remembered the developer options vanished, that's why I decide to reset since what I think is the reset pinhole didn't work?


p.s I can access win explorer most of the time. the common droid/disney folders are showing but I'm unclear what all is missing.. can someone please give me a laymens clue how to get the os back on it. I deleted the cache and etc to no avail. I pieced together other peeps info here but so far I'm special no one has my exact errors lol. my gut says it's fixable from what I have read it seems to makes a difference its a disney version I don't care what's on it as long as it works at this point any ideas or help is deeply appreciated. I'm running win 10 ent 64bit at the moment and it was stock disney version of NABI2-NV7A-US-D with 4.4.1 before bad update of kitkat ota.
