Thanks for the answers.

1. So basically 3rd party music players do not work. What about my way around the problem? I mean making mp3 full of silence and putting it in internal hard drive of device. Can you tell me what folder i need to use?

2. I don't think that it is the problem. Yes, i probably have bigger than 500 x 500 images, but they did work in Android 2.3. Or have the support for images gotten worse with update?

3. I have noise at my end, other end of the call has good quality. Also the noise is present when i'm playing music from my phone over bluetooth. So can it really be the mic? I have external mic (that came with the device from carnaviplayer) installed.

And I did read first 100 pages of the thread. But it is just such a long thread that i don't think that anyone can reasonably expected to read it all. I also tried to search with some keywords, but didn't find what i was looking for.
[Android Head-Units] mihaiolimpiu:
1. No, just some of them, you just need to test them out. It's not a supported device afterall.

2. Yes, the stock player is crap regarding this aspect, only one image is enough to break all images. I have all my music playing just fine but is very hard to get it just right. Try to use VLC or another player, it's several factors of magnitude better than stock player in this aspect. Still because stock player shuts down the radio when opened, it still gets the most use from me.

P.S.: just remembered: the stock player on 2.3 just hides any songs with 'wrong' id3tag or bigger size photos than roughly 500x500. It also shows the same image for every song with same album. So if you want to see a different image for every song you have to rename the album to be unique, I use artist + song name. I KNOW STUPID, BUT IT WORKS. On 4.0 I just think it breaks all images, not quite sure on that.

3. Sorry, same as 1. Try another build or deal with it. If it's possible downgrade to Android 2.3. It's more functional in stock form. I don't have any noise when using Bluetooth with a HTC One S and a Galaxy Alpha. Even games sound terrific!
[Android Head-Units] maavalko:
Downgrading is not really an option, because Spotify does not work in Android 2.3 anymore (otherwise i would). Probably i will go and try some other builds to see if i can get it working better.

Thanks for the help anyway.

See my edit for 2.
[Android Head-Units] dom_christo:
So i managed to install 4.03.

Then tried to install your version again.

Upon reboot it said it couldn't verify the package. I Pressed the reboot button on the unit and heard a pop noise from the speakers.

The unit rebooted and now it comes up with a white fuzzy screen with black and green lines down the right side..

I think I might have bricked the unit? or possibly blew the fuse?

The volume / mute buttons still seem to work though. quite weird.

Any ideas on what to try?
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Reinstall 4.03 even if you don't see nothing, wait 20 minutes or so, to let it finish the flash procedure, remove sd and it should boot again.

If it didn't verify the package it didn't make the update either so you shouldn't have any problem.

[Android Head-Units] donaldta:
The problem with those Chinese ODB2 clones is that there's no quality control in design or manufacturing. So, it may or may not work. It is really sort of like drawing straws. There are two points of possible failures; the ODB2 processor not being able to communicate with your car's ECU and the Serial to USB adapter not being able to communicate with your Android device.

If you're going to use it with Torque, it has its own FTDI and Prolific drivers so it can use the USB APIs to work. If the one you get has a Silicon Labs USB to Serial adapter then you'll need to compile your own CL203x drivers and modify the startup files to insmod it before it can communicate.

If you don't want to play Russian Roulette with ODB2 adapters, then you might consider getting a name brand adapter, like the ones from Scantool.net which all use a real FTDI serial to USB adapter.

Can anyone recommend a USB 3G modem for the S150?
[Android Head-Units] bypo:

[Android Head-Units] dom_christo:
Thanks, Will buy an E173, they seem cheap enough.

Another question.

Has anyone else has any trouble with the audio quality?

I seem to have a constant static hiss that comes from the speakers, Very noticeable when nothing is playing.

Radio Quality seems quite poor.

Bluetooth streaming is worse (quite annoying)

At the moment I have all my music sitting on a USB stick, so far it sounds the best, but the quality of sound is still not great.

Wondering If I have a bad connection somewhere in the wire harness? or if the quality control for these units is just bad.
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
Do you mean that "static hiss" with "poor" and "worse" or are there other problems?
[Android Head-Units] dom_christo:
yeah its that constant static hiss.

But it somehow seems worse when I am streaming bluetooth?
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
That sounds curious. Does this noise change with engine rpm or it is really static?
[Android Head-Units] dom_christo:
its just static. it goes away only when I press the Mute button. or if no audio application is open (eg bt, or music player)

Also, after updating to 4.03 having a lot of trouble with the Steering wheel controls.

I can program them. But none of the buttons will do anything. it was working for about 10 seconds, then stopped working after turned off the unit.
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
Hmm. Another 4.03 bug, can someone verify that with a s150.
[Android Head-Units] dom_christo:
Im using an S150
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
Yes of course, i mean someone beside you :)

Did you tried the "low" mode, too?
[Android Head-Units] dom_christo:
It was originally working in Low mode in 2.4.3

I got it working for about 10min in High mode (4.03), rebooted the unit, and all the settings were lost. (time, date, etc).

Have not been able to get it working since then in either mode.

I can set all the buttons fine. All the values save (even after a reboot now). But the buttons don't seem to do anything when pressed.

Considering going back to 2.4.3, but 4.03 looks so pretty D:
[Android Head-Units] badboy007:
Although I have a s100 but with me now everything works ...

with me were my own config files to blame ...

something is different between 2.3.x and 4.0.3.

I've finally with the original config files from the 4.0.3 of damadina and flashed with the original config files in KoTiX2 mod ....

after that I had a nissan boot logo though ...

but it can be, like everything else change ...

I do not need a can bus ... so I can adjust everything later

with android it roars no more than WinCE ...

but the sound quality from the FM tuner really sucks!!

but there is a fix ... However, you need to unscrew your device ...

and for me, the fix is ​​not much help ... but yes I have a S100

sorry for the bad english... google helps me a little ;)
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
For the bootlogo, edit the file personize.prop in the config folder and set the logo you need ;)
[Android Head-Units] maavalko:
Ok, that explains it all. So support for id3tags really did go worse with the update. Also most of my artist names disappeared with the update (not all though) , but that is probably same reason. I have non-ascii characters in artist names, so probably some of them break the player. And i already do have my mp3 files named like "artist - songname.mp3", so the same album art was not a problem.

[Android Head-Units] 1mdl:
yes but it work on all my other android unit. what to do is tu delete on the s150 like

"There are two manipulation to be performed:

First go to: Settings -> Application Manager -> then on your "menu" Phone "button" and make "reset preferences"

Then go (still in the application manager) on the "google play" application and then do "force stop" and "empty the cache".

Do not worry about the warning message, it has no impact on your accounts or otherwise.

Then power cycle the phone, and there: magic it works!"

If you still have the problem go back a page and see my posts on the problem.

I don't know which firmware you use, I got the problem on the latest stock firmware from roadnav and carnaviplayer.

If you want to stay with your current firmware I am afraid the only way to solve the problem will be to uninstall the googleplay app after rooting your S150 and installing the latest app. I tried but could not uninstall it. It is shown as protected system app.

The firmware I installed solved the problem.

[Android Head-Units] mitsucats:
Hello

Now I have testet the sygic with the S160 and drive 35 km without any dropouts

Or anything like that. So it seems to work now.

That seems not to be problem with sygic about the drops out but more the firmware

Because s160 have kit kat 4.4.4 and it works.

Again first we could not install sygic the new design on S160 and I thought it was problem with sygic

But that was not the case, because after new firmware, we can install it.

SWC-Cable connector / CANbus decoder

Hi everyone,

I have bought the S150 CANbus decoder for my Touareg, but am not using the S150 as the radio.

While being able to understand all cable usages of the main S150 connector, I am having trouble making sense of the cables going from the decoder to the SWC-connector (the blue 10-pin connector)

To give you a quick idea of what I am achieving to do:

I needed a CANbus decoder for a different android-based radio, as I need information like Lamp Detection / Brake Detection / Reverse Detection / ACC etc. for the radio to work properly.

According to other users, the CANbus adapter from Roadnav is doing all this.

Unfortunately, there were no labels on any of the cables coming from the decoder (or even the Quadlock Adapter), but I managed to find out most of them.

The only ones I do not understand are the ones going from the CANbus decoder to the blue 10-pin Steering Wheel Connector.

I am sure others have purchased such a decoder already (not necessarily needed for VW Touareg) and would kindly ask you if anyone of you either took a picture at that time or could take a picture of their connector.

I am especially wondering how the decoder is supplied with power - if only I knew these two cables, I would be able to power it up and find out about the others. I am concerned to connect the two that I am suspecting, because I might just blow 70 USD up in thin air...

Please find the picture of the connector attached to this post.

PIN 1 - empty

PIN 2 - black (is this Ground FROM the radio to power the CANBUS adapter?)

PIN 3 - empty

PIN 4 - empty

PIN 5 - pink (is this the SWC cable?)

PIN 6 - yellow (is this 12V FROM the radio to power the canbus adapter?)

PIN 7 - empty

PIN 8 - empty

PIN 9 - orange (no idea what this is for)

PIN 10 - white (no idea what this is for)

If anyone of you has a picture of his connector, even if the car is different, it would help me a lot!

Thanks in advance...

[Android Head-Units] Franky692:
The problem is not sygic, but the speed calculation or info from the HW unit. Probably your unit has a newer HW board and your has no speed drop to 0 problem.

In sygic the drop to 0 speed value is more annoying because wheen the speed is 0 sygic change the zoom level and stop the Arrow on the map. If you disable autozoom form sygic sw you get some other problem like the zoom that start Always from the minimum value.

Copilot is the only nav sw that skip the 0 value or use a proprietary method to calcolate speed but to heavy for S150

GPS issue now fixed

I've managed to find problem relating to the GPS signal jumping to zero (0) intermittently. There is a problem with the hardware design.

By the way, I've tested Sygic, Copilot, iGo and Route66 and they all were affected by the GPS issue. Copilot handled the GPS issue better but was still affected by the altitude and thus causing POI's to pop up whilst driving. The hardware mod will require some basic knowledge of soldering some components onto the motherboard but it's pretty easy. It will require adding 3 components and removing one component from the motherboard.

Dpi issue

Hi Kotix,

Have your latest rom installed on my s150 with 160 dpi mode enabled.

However stock apps had also been down to 160 and it was made for 240dpi

so it has scaling issue. I was tryring to change dpi for radio app and found

that modifying ModSettings.xml file can give different dpi settings for each

app. However i was not able to locate ModSettings.xml and I dont think

there is no such file on my system. Could you give me an advice on this?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

GPS Mod details

I've posted the mod pics. The problem I found was that the GPS unit was going into an idle mode which causes position loss etc. With the mod I am forcing the GPS to operate even when in standby (off mode). The mod will also improve overall performance and much quicker accuracy. Please note that I'm not responsible for any loss to your unit. I've tried the mod and it works perfectly on my unit but I am still working on improving it even more. I still find in bad reception areas I get the 0 issue but will send more details as soon as I've improved it.

You will notice a wire link which is connected to the 3.3v regulator near the front of the motherboard close to the LCD. Please contact me and let me know how it works for you.

I thought I'd share a couple of successes I've had with this head unit. I battled with a Huawei E3131 for a long time, even trying PPP widget but it refused to work even though the modem is listed in this thread as compatible. I bought a Hauwei E1750 (used, as they are no longer in production and becoming more difficult to come by) and it worked instantly without any third party apps.

I've also persisted to get Torque to work on this unit. I tried all three adaptor types and finally had a win with the WiFi ELM327. I bought the cheapest chinese clone on ebay. Bluetooth and USB do not work.

Now the only two problems left are the steering wheel controls not working despite having a 'canbus adaptor' and I'm so damn sick of the radio app starting by itself and won't stop playing when I want to use third party music players.

tested both with original fw and kotix fw.

here is solution for s150 headunits with igo primo apk allways asking for settings.

1.prepare your igo kit.

in content folder,remove all files from building, map, poi folders.

on map folder only copy your country map files.

this way, igo folder will not be big.

2.in sys.txt file search for "folder" field, and add :

has_secondary_root=1

android_secondary_root_path="/extsd/Addons"

content="/extsd/Addons/content"

3.copy igo pack in internal memory of the s150 headunit

4.install igo.apk from internal memory.

5.take a new sd card and make a new folder "Addons"

6.copy "content" folder in Addons folder. make sure you have all your maps, buildings, poi files in this folder.

7.put this new sd card in map slot.

8.run the igo app fro the screen.

9.do not make igo app as default navi app. do not select it from navi settings menu.
