Question: i updated firmware from 4.01 to 4.74 but still have some functions n/a (eg skoda auto detect or obd)
with firmware 4.01 these functions was active. what i did wrong?
Answer: Flashed with 8.21 firmware and much more functions available.
Question: anyone can confirm which is pin 55? Is it left side from top to bottom number 7 is pin 55?

Answer: Exactly you are correct. It is from top to bottom number 7. Now lift it.
If you are using J-link software, let pin55 up until the end of programming, then solder pin55 to ground like in the picture attached.
I did this way and worked perfectly.

Question: I want to replace these tantalum capacitors in A1 adapter, but the replacement must be exact like the originals?
The originals have 106C 49E73 written. Must I find capacitors with the same numbers?

Answer:
the top numbers are the value, the letter is the tolerance while the second row are just batch numbers so if you are replacing then yes the value numbers in your case must be the same ie 106C, is 10uf
some have a maximum voltage stamped as well but in your case you have to work out the maximum voltage of the board and then add some extra so I would use 25v rated or 35v rated if you are going to use the unit on 24v trucks.

Question: Can someone explain in normal English what carprog is for. Would be nice without (for me) unknown short tags.
So what/which cars can I do with it?
Answer: It is for resetting airbag modules for old models after car crushing.

Question: Can someone tell me where to buy A1+ adapter for Chinese carprog?
Answer: directly from eobdtool.co.uk. this one eur13 here

7. 7.

Question: So found just paid solution get replaced MCU,I'm right?
Answer: no need to replace mcu, it can be erased and reflashed with newest free firmware.
Question: I bought clone carprog v10.05 but most of functions is not available. Is problem with software or firmware? Can I use different version like 7.27 or I need to use software provided seller?
Answer: software is software firmware is firmware
your carprog is most likely got firmware 4 in it
and your wanting what your activation file won't have.
I' ll keep add more here for your reference.
Hope it helps.

How to do when you lift pin 55 on Carprog

Now I have succeeded in one Carprog unit(CARPROG FULL V9.31), with help of a sewing needle. It will go wrong because I get up two pin, and then I can not solder back the faulty pin.
Now I have managed to get another one ready for easy flash with J-Link adapter.
But I will make another one to experiment with, and rebuild to full function or better.

Below is some useful tips from forum bros. Wish this helps

*** autocargo says:
… find scrap electronics board and practice on that. I use thin syringe needle and magnifying glass.. No point practicing on your working CarProg….
Use thin solder tip or hot air off course…forgot to say… but I don’t think you would be doing it without applying heat…

*** demelec says:
needle under leg needed lifting and heat with hot air, then very carefully lift only a little just so it separates from pcb solder

Soldering iron you have to use very thin tip and just touch very end of leg to remove ( solder at very end so not actually touching leg) then you can lift with needle
And always use solder flux
Flux is the main key to easy working

How to fix Carprog Clone LIB File Problem

Here is the working solution on Carprog clone “LIB file problem” by re-flashing Mcu ARM AT91SAM7S256 step by step.ECU Programmer

OBD Tech
Problem:
Any work solution for carprog v8.21 clone?
“Lib file problem. delete LIB file and make Update>-Internet”

Solution:
Yes, reprogram ARM with any jtag programmer.

Reflash Carprog MCU ARM by Jtag:
We need the stuff:
1- AT91SAM7S256.bin
2- Jtag programmer
3- Jtag software
We need to prepare the Carprog to connect to Jtag programmer but first the flash need to be erased, the Jtag function in mcu is disabled, you can’t connect to the mcu before erase the flash. Remove the AT88SC eeprom from the board, please note where is the pin 1 in eeprom before remove:

Carefully lift the pin 55 (reset) of the mcu and solder a wire and secure it with a small amount of silicone (you don’t want to broke the pin in the process).
Connect the Carprog (with the pin 55 disconnected) to the 12v supply, wait about 10 seconds and connect the wire from pin 55 to Vcc (3.3V) in Carprog:

Wait from 5 to 10 seconds after connect the 12v supply, the flash content will be erased and the Jtag option of the Mcu will be enabled now. If not work leave connected for about 3 to 5 minutes. Disconnect the 12v supply from CarProg full  and remove the pin 55 wire from vcc. The pin 55 must remain disconnected until the programming process is done.
Ok, that’s it. I make it; and you try on you risk.

CarProg with A9 A1 A1+ adapters test operation

Which adapter is necessary to make a test when the Carprog full fails to work? And how to do the test? Go on reading the post to get answers yourself.

A9 first!!!

If CarProg hardware test fail – in most cases you just need exchange 4x 74HC125 integrated circuit. Exchange all 4 74HC125 together!!!

update your Carprog A1 adapter:

open A1 solder additional tantalum or electrolytic capasitors – this MOD will solve “communication lost” problems.
– A1 before modification:

– A1 after modification:

or with electrolytic capasitors 47uF 25V

update your A1+ adapter: 
open A1+ solder additional tantalum or electrolytic capacitors – more stable OBDII communication.  Also very important for older CarProg users – change one 1k Ohm resistor and solder 120R Ohm

– A1+Before modification:

– A1+ after modification:

or with electrolytic capacitors

TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK.
