Obtaining IP Address

Hi Guys,

i have solved my wifi connection problems and maybe it is interresting for someone else.

What was the problem: I Could connect to my wifi, but i did not get an ip address. The last message seen at the wifi settings during connect is "Obtaining IP Address". After some timeout during that message it disconnects.

To solve that problem you need root access (like Kotix ROM): Open ES-Explorer (or any root file explorer) and navigate to /data/misc/dhcp and delete all files in that folder (something like wlan0.pid). Now try to connect.

If that does not solve it look at /system/etc/dhcpcd and check the permissions for file dhcpcd-run-hooks file. I should have r and x for all (user, group, other).

PS: Hopefully this fixes my 3g issues too. I couldnt test it atm but report back.

TTS

I see the iGO primo package in the voice folder TTS-NUANCE-SR_EDITION_v3.1 file and any german TTS voice file. Your igo has TTS ( "igo primo say street names") support?

Did you installing nuance on the S150 with Android 4.03?

Can you help me with this?
[Android Head-Units] Psycho Dave:
I have a tricky problem.

I have a Saab 9-5 from 2011 and there are no aftermarket systems for this car. But since this car is based on the same platform as Opel Insignia I took a GM unit, in this case for Opel Mokka (C235) that fits with some modifications. The unit is working, it is connected on the CAN bus and I can control it from the steering wheel. The problem is that the radio buttons on the center console of the dash does not do the correct thing, of course the Saab engineer used slightly different values for the buttons compared to Opel/Chevrolet.

What I have found when playing around with both wince and android is that for some Opel and a few other GM vehicles the button setting is not controlled from ADSet.xml. It does not matter if I change ADValue or ADFunc, what matter is what model I set it to. If I set it to C/I235 I get one set of functions on the buttons and if I set it to C/I045 I get another set of functions. In ADSet there are only the first button configuration active so if that controlled anything the function should not change when I change from I045 to I235.

Is it possible to find where the button settings are stored and is it possible to change it?
[Android Head-Units] NFHimself:
I was looking into trying to figure that out as well, I am not sure what the ADset.xml id and derived id are for and if they are supposed to match winca=X in the configs. There must be some baked in defaults when nothing is found. . On the device file system there is a /bootlogo/config folder, which you would think would allow for changes on the fly without reflashing. I did make one change that did something, but it was in factorysettings, I tried setting special to 2 without quotes and the radio app wouldn't load.

I think I'll try setting the derived id to 1, 2, 3, 4 to see if anything changes.

Edit: that did nothing, but the wince ADSet.xml uses a <ADFunc id="0" /> not present in the android ADSet.xml and in stat one winca="0" for the first entry not "4"

Edit and that did nothing, at least flashing using system update and stock firmware.

EDIT: Flashed wince again, and that radio app worked as desired, not freq seeking, I like the integration, but the internet was pointless and slow /buggy to be unusable, back to android, with the freq seeking. Obviously it's a setting in the firmware or something can survive nukes in the settings.

Cheers!

Good morning,

My unit is C034 and I put android 4.03 and it worked perfect, canbus, steering wheel controls ...

When you install version 2.5 of Kotix the music player sounded good at first, but now is not heard. The second of the song can choose more advanced and songs but not heard. I turned up the volume, uninstalled apps, but still be heard.

The radio, bluetooth, dvd ... if that sounds.

It's happened to someone else?

Thank you very much
[Android Head-Units] Goldcat22:
Thanks

Thanks for the quick help.

I tested your iGO and this is a version is worked.

Perfect, very nice version!

Many thanks for help for me. I'm very happy! THANKS!!!! :o
[Android Head-Units] adrianmihai83:
[MENTION=5960823]manugar[/MENTION], I also have C034 but I did not encounter the problem in question. I didn't use music player that much, mainly I use radio and video. Everything is working great except:

1. does not keep in memory App Volume so I have to start it every time - I don't know if somebody is researching this

2. if Igo is one of the last 2 programs started, then it will start automaticaly when car starts

3. on WinCE, I got all sorts of info on the red display in the center top of the dash, now whatever source I use it displays "NAVI" doesn't mater if I use radio, music, video or navigation - this a think is on canbus and nobody will research it because there is not so much demand for C034 :)

4. sometimes does not keeps in memory the last song played by videoplayer and it starts from begining

5. also, wince kept in memory the position in the videofile where you stopped at, now on android it starts from the begining, annoying if you are looking at a movie, it will start from the begining - you have to seek the moment you have stopped it - I think this is to train your brain, keep it occupied - you will have less chance of Altzheimer :)

6. radio reception is rubbish, I don't know if DSP board would help me that much, I have the sedan model and the antena is integrated in the rear glass so no external antenna

These would be the 6 points that would make the unit perfect...

1 is pure stupid thing, the slider is set at the last pozition but the setting isn't applyed

2 after using navi and close it, I start two other programs

3 I don't care that much

4 stupid, i use other programs that never forget the last track played

5 same as point 4

6 i use tunein radio

Can you help'me please. When i touch the phone icon on the unit, the a2dp music start alone. I have tried to find a solution on thé unit and on my désire s htc, but no result.

You don't know how to remove the Read IMEI message at startup?
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
You could try to mod the sys.txt with:

[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
Do you use Copilot anymore? Did you tried to use TTS with Copilo? The default Android TTS for german sounds very robotic and not good at all the S100. I tried IVONA Marlene but it has a high memory consumption.

[Android Head-Units] mitsucats:
I have read that is so on android because it is a copy and therefore it read the imei. i dont know if you can take it away or not.
[Android Head-Units] adrianmihai83:
Actualy there are moded iGo apk's that do not request the imei, it uses thenline in sys.txt but this is not the case of of the latest iGo Primo so you have to bear with this inconvenient.

[Android Head-Units] Gassi2106:
Hey@all, ive a question. How many data usage has your device? My device will download in every Start between 20 and 40 MB data! Ive not installed some extra services only the original apps (kottix v2.2). Is this a bug vor a feature? Ive only have a 1gb data plan. The head unit is very expesive of mobile data..
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
The only thing that should be downloaded are normal app Updates through the play Store like on any other Android device. But if I remember the autoupdates are disabled and you have to confirm the download.

The notification for that will be shown every day. Do you have Access to a WiFi network using a USB Stick?

To prevent the play Store to download automatically you can turn of autoupdates or select to dl only if you have WiFi Access. Setting is somewhere at the playstore.
[Android Head-Units] evert van rhyn:
Yes ive noticed the same, every start it uses 20-35 Mb, it happens as soon as you activate play store or enter your google account info. Ive removed my account info and now it only uses about 20kb at startup. It doesnt matter if you enable or disable auto updates in play store it will still use 20-35 Mb, i think its a bug in the OS.
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
Really on every Start?
[Android Head-Units] Gassi2106:

My head unit restarts randomly. Is this a software or hardware issue? Its only a week old. Sometimes it works for hours. Sometimes it just restarts continuously until I turn the car off and on. Anyone has this issue or could it be an installation problem. I'm using 4.03
[Android Head-Units] evert van rhyn:
Sounds like a hardware problem
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
Could you find out what app it is? Google service?
[Android Head-Units] Psycho Dave:
I have been looking at it some more and the encore app in android that displays the A/C setting has nothing to do with it. If remove that app it don't display the A/C settings but the buttons continue to work as before. I am stuck now.

---------- Post added at 01:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 AM ----------

Which video formats does S150 play? I tested a couple of XviD movies and only one started playing with sound, when I tried to jump to the middle of the movie it said that it could not play the movie. Some movies played without sound and had the same problem when jumping forward in the movie. Some did not play at all.
[Android Head-Units] superboost:
i agree, very poor radio

:( i confirm, all is perfect on quality sound on all sources BUT not radio that is very very poor sound, bad dynamic, unusable AF, bad sélectivity, bad stéréo effect. I've tried at least 5 différents ROM (Kotix or not), i expected that one of the MCU version could resolve but NOT. I've also tried most pre-amplifier and antennas (active, passive), always poor quality.... :(. I pray for a rom update to try having a day a good radio reception... i pray....:angel:

[Android Head-Units] excitedidiot:
I recently upgraded to Kotix 2.5, and I'm very happy with it, I seem to have much better sound quality over bluetooth. I have one issue that is annoying me. If navigation was running before shutting the car off, it used to start automatically next time I started up. It won't do it anymore.

Another intermittent issue is that sometimes after I back up while the unit is booting when I shift to first the camera shuts off, but the camera app stays up with a black screen. I'm thinking this might actually be a hardware or wiring issue, but I looked and can't find a wire out of place.

I've tried going to 2.4 and 2.3 and I still have both issues. I can't remember what firmware I was on before, but I guess I'm going to keep trying to go back till I get the Nav problem fixed.

Sounds like your reverse camera is hooked into the wrong plug. It seems like it's hooked into the DVR plug, not the one for reverse camera, that's why it shows in the video recorder app, but not on reverse.
[Android Head-Units] madamko:
Add in sys.txt
[Android Head-Units] Forre11:
Hmm.., what can I say DVR (CP6001) is connected it's own connector and the rear camera as well, video recorder app dont show in camera mode front DVR at all (no input to select DVR)

But if someone do know where to look at, I would be appreciated

may be fault is that interface cannot syncronise video stream, time to time i can see picture for a while until it freeze or

fade away.
[Android Head-Units] NFHimself:
Hi,

Do you have the camera powered from the unit or via the backup lamp? If you have the former connection, the unit decides when the camera is on, (it could be always on for all I know, or on/off with the unit) if the latter, it turns on only with the lamp. There is bound to be latency due to turning the camera on and off, boot time if you will.

Cheers!
[Android Head-Units] Forre11:
Headunit do suply power to rear camera and DVR, when DVR app is running, DVR live view can be seen in in display which is connected to Headunit AUX2 output but HeadUnit own display shows stripes and no dvr connected. cables and connections are OK.

Otherwise no Video cannot be seen in any displays whic are connected in headunit.

I like ask Allen if he can tell is application android base when tap is in rearcamera (settings->devices->rear camera) or something else

and is there a settings to check.

Time to time video stream starts ok( once in month)live video has colours then go black and white, start to fade to shadows and then just stripes left? thats why i think it don't syncronice video stream to Headunit display, same stream goes throught Headunit aux2 output to anothet tft display and it's OK, AUX2 display dont show stripes, it do work or shows NO video

I think it has to be either component fault or firmware issue in Headunit which contols which input is connected in applications and be seen in Headunit display

Rear camera live view from video app do not freeze as log as keep rear gear on.
[Android Head-Units] NFHimself:
Can't really add much as I don't have an aux 2 set up, and it sounds like you have tested things. Going to grey is odd, it's like it is ntsc vs pal. Stripes sounds like a loss of sync altogether. If you had a scope you could probably see what is going on, some attenuation causing it to fall below a threshold maybe.

Cheers!

I062 with fw4.0

Hello!

Today I did downgrade my I062 s150 back to fw2.34

Build number:GRJ22.V4.07.09-20140301

MCU: E003

FLASH: S00C

to see if it fix DVR and rear camera problem,

suprise it did (I had same problem with same software so i was litte skeptic for the result).

I uppgraded back to fw 4.0 (from Allen), now DVR and rear camera do work.:D

Build number: IML74K-20140702

MCU: P004

FLASH: S00C

Lets see for next few days how it goes, maybe this is just temporary and faults will exist again after shutting down and powering up the HU more than few times(maybe Headunit MCU go crazy, when powering car and reverse gear is on allready before s150 is up).

I let you know how it goes.

Thanks

I actually added a gloss screen protector and like it better. It gives it the glass-like look and feels better to the touch. I found out after a few weeks of use, that the "check lights" option was dimming my screen during the day...since the running lights turn on during the day. I unchecked that option in the vehicle settings and the screen is more acceptable during the day.
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
Does your protector use glue or is it a adhesive one without glue? Maybe i give it a try... Do you cut out the protector by yourself?
[Android Head-Units] np27np27:
Do you have a link for the product?
[Android Head-Units] Cruze2012:
It goes on easy without glue. It takes a little practice to install without bubbles, but I've become good at it with installing on phones.

I chose one made for a Nexus 7'' tablet and cut it to fit before installing. Below is the Amazon link to the Tech Armor screen protector. It comes with 3, so you don't have to get it perfect the first try.

One last tip for screen protectors. If the screen feels a little tacky to the touch, try applying a plastic interior protector spray to it to remove the tackiness. A tip I've learned and needed for this protector as well.

Connect to 3G network

Hi!

Does anyone know how I can connect my i071 to the 3G network via usb stick?

I have tried 2 different sticks, I know the apn settings from the operator, but cannot make it.

I am trying to enter the apn settings, but when I entering MCC and MNC parameters, then the apn disappeared. When I left these 2 settings blanc then the apn is there but without working.

Is there anybody who has ay experience on that?

Thank you in advance!
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
The apn are only saved if the mcc matches the one that your phone think is correct. Thats a more or less common android thing. Did you try to leave mcc and mcn at default?

Do you have root access?
