Well it looks like I have bricked my unit, I did the blue swede firmware update and I then lost ALL sound on the unit, I tried to reload the original firmware, but the unit no longer seems to "see" the GPS slot and will not reload the firmware,

I have formatting the SD card to be primary and active as I had to on the Dynavan D99+ unit), FAT16 and FAT32 ( the head unit will still not reload the firmware.

All I get now is the opening splash screen and nothing else, it just sits there none of the buttons have any efferct of the unit, I have tried holding the power button (I did read some where that it should do a factory reset, but mine does not)

I don't have access to Linux machine, I have tried using a Linux emulator with out any luck, does ANY one know of a easy way to create a SD recovery SD card?

Please can someone help me, even if they could do a recovery disk for me, I am willing to pay for the help.

Thanks

Tony
[Android Head-Units] bypo:
Done. Solved with factory reset
[Android Head-Units] stief:
Try holding the source button and the reset button. After a few seconds leave the reset button but keep holding source. You should hear a long beep and unit should factory reset.

After much reading finally got my S150!!!! :D

For reference I purchased from AliExpress.com seller "HEPA Carvideo" description "Android A8 Chip 3x faster double din 2din car stereo support 3G WIFI". (I'd post the link but they seem to constantly change) Anyway the service was excellent, all the bits come in a nice box and the map is included. Oh and it was the cheapest I could find anywhere ;)

I'm going to power it up indoors (well hopefully if an old PC power supply does the job!!) to get it going. Would it be useful to anyone to get any files off it and upload them here before I start tinkering?

I want to update to the latest firmware and I've got the file originally Posted by [MENTION=5131175]Gassi2106[/MENTION] (Post #69) so am I right in thinking the process is:

-Root device

-Back up config file

-Install firmware

-Restore config file

And then I'm good to go?

Thanks in advance, and apologies if I'm covering old ground but I don't want to brick my new toy :fingers-crossed:
[Android Head-Units] niton:
-root device

-backup config FOLDER

-Download firmware

-replace config folder with yours

Selling of New generation head units has started, now it has the DSP board, which allow you to ajust sound. But, DSP can be offered separate, and replaced. It's cost 65usd+shipping.
[Android Head-Units] royalhawk2002:
Is some firmware update supporting DSP board? If you change the hardware also software should change.

Any internet site with details about this board ?
[Android Head-Units] niton:
the firmwae is the same, and if you install the firmware, listed 02/11/2013 dsp settings will be available. All information from the conversation with seller. Also you can find new listings on aliexpress with " Independent DSP sound-effects, 7 parts digital EQ tone adjustment"
[Android Head-Units] gochapka:
Thank you very much Allen!. :laugh:

But now he could tell me what is the procedure to return to FW 2.3.

I made an SD memory with SD-Flasher and procedure as described in this forum and copied to the root of the SD files and then the folder also her, having renamed I001, and nothing happens, the screen goes black and does not start the downgrade! :( :silly:

There is another way to do this? :o

Thank you.
[Android Head-Units] Allen Wong:
The way you upgraded the firmware is incorrect.

Just need to copy the eight files into root of SD card. Insert it into GPS card slot. Restart the head unit, it will upgrade automatically.
[Android Head-Units] gochapka:
:o :good: OH! THANKS, I try later, however, to night...

Maybe I should not be downgraded if the following addresses:

NO SOUND when music from SD or USB slot plays; sometimes heard but the volume must be put in 25-26!

The GPS IGO omitted alerts or voice guidance.

Radio CD or DVD or hear well.

Appreciate the solution to these points and leave the FW 4.0.

Greetings.
[Android Head-Units] np27np27:
This is the same problem a few of are facing. You may find that down grading back to your original firmware may not help.
[Android Head-Units] mtresk:
All you need is right bootloader to downgrade from 4.0 to 2.3. I gave you a link on 4pna.

Create bootable sd in sd-flasher with this bootloader. Put 2.3 firmware files in root of sd card.
[Android Head-Units] gochapka:
:svetius: Thank you!, I hope that here the rule is broken and my case is not one more and everything back to normal!, Hehe.

Bad idea was to install the FW 4.03! :silly:

---------- Post added at 01:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:06 PM ----------

Yes, yes!, Thank you very much, I've seen and seeking the post. Thank you! :good:

However I'm confused now, Mr Allen recommends putting the files on a SD standard and everyone else in a special SD (SD-flasher)

So far I tried and did not work well, how I still do it only says Allen. :confused:

I'll see you tonight!

Thank you.

Greetings.
[Android Head-Units] kaween:
Not working. No error, just a "application not installed". Which is exactly what i had a couple of months ago (with the same version).

Ideas ? (Problem : can't install Tasker on a rooted, otherwise stock normal 2.3 S150)
[Android Head-Units] niton:
It's works well on my HU,

has you tried Tasker 1.3.4b2?
[Android Head-Units] kaween:
identical result. "application not installed".
[Android Head-Units] donaldta:
We can get to the bottom of why "application not installed" appears. However, you'll need have access to root, use a terminal emulator and be willing to attach the output to a post.

$ [COLOR="RoyalBlue"][B]su[/B][/COLOR]
# [COLOR="RoyalBlue"][B]logcat -c; sleep 1; pm install [COLOR="Silver"]{/path/to/}[/COLOR]Tasker_1.6u2.a​pk; sleep 40; logcat -df /mnt/sdcard/logcat-tasker.txt[/B][/COLOR]

Explanation of commands

su gets elevated system access

logcat -c clears the logging buffer

sleep 1 pauses for a second

pm install uses package manager to install an APK of the specified path and filename.

sleep 40 pauses for 40 seconds which should be long enough for the process to error out

logcat -df this dumps the content of the logcat buffer into the filename of the specified path

This is the typical set of commands you'd use to get more information as to why an application fails to install. Because the syntax errors given in the user space is usually too generic and non-specific. So, we gather the information from the logcat buffers to get a better idea of the problem.
[Android Head-Units] TvBIFI:
just open the Configurator an untick everything except MCU
[Android Head-Units] gochapka:
Well, about the back from FW 4.03 (Original Carnavi ) to FW 2.3.4 (Original Carnavi ) has been a complete failure ! I've tried with the SD standard or bootable SD (SD- Flasher ) and files in and out of the folder and nothing at all !

As to this failure and my anxiety of running unit best, so I upgraded to version 4.03 Official FW + Aroma estimated KoTiX ; unit has been excellent :laugh: :good: , at least has not lost in the sound of the music stored on SD / USB , it does reduce the volume a bit ( hopefully with the passage of time does not get lost !)

A " bug" I found, I do not remember if it's in the Official Carnavi version is that the setting of the form of the date, which appears on the HOME screen is different from the output in the settings !

Also , if I seteado the Spanish language , time on the HOME screen is different than the one shown in the top row ! But if I pass the language to English , it is corrected ! Go thing .

What I do not understand how it operates , happens in both versions ( Carnavi - KoTiX ) is the BlueTooth agenda , I can not pass the phone to the HU, or one by one or in general, in FW 2.3 was too easy !

They are some sample images of both, date / time and agenda of BT .
[Android Head-Units] donaldta:
This is one of those things where the programmer of the home screen widget is not pulling the date format from "Settings.System.DATE_FORMAT" but pulling it from "android.text.format.DateFormat.getDateFormat" which is specific to the locale. Have you checked the associated program with the widget? Maybe it has its own custom settings.
[Android Head-Units] gochapka:
See all that's not easy for me, I'm not a programmer, I will investigate a bit, I did not possess all the tools to show / open.

Thank you!
[Android Head-Units] np27np27:
So I tried a few mcu's but no change. Not sure what is going on.

If I put the volume to Max and press play on the mp3 player I can hear the unit switching, trying to play the sound, but No music!!!

What can this be?? Hardware error??

User [MENTION=4670338]hititup[/MENTION] thinks it may be something to do with https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=...To7AbWioG4CA&ved=0CAoQ_AUoAA&biw=360&bih=567 av switch ic.

Does anyone have experience with this component on the s100/s150??
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Man you should read the wiki!

To go back to 2.34 you have only to fuse this file:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/2espud1akgjqb3q/u-boot_sd.bin

On your SD card with sd-flasher in the same way you did for 4.03 Fw, just the bin file is different.

Once the sdcard is fused you have to copy the 2.34 Fw files in the root of the sd, no winca folder, just in the root.

In the 4.03 Fw the BT contacts are buggy, sometimes they got downloaded an sometimes not, it was working better in the beta Fw.
[Android Head-Units] gochapka:
:( :eek: OH YES!, I'm sorry!,

Very true, anxiety played a trick on me!

Well, again a failure, but not for having done something wrong, but the HU successfully started the downgrade :D , but when it was time for the piiipp ... piipp ... (after updating bluetooth) never regained consciousness! :( :crying: For 40 minutes it was so, so I should take everything apart and cut the power, again tried to return it to life with FW 2.3 and NOTHING! always black screen. :confused:

Only achieve it by re-installing the FW 4.03 + Aroma KoTiX; LUCKILY and revived!. :laugh::good:

But still bad audio from the SD / USB, TOTAL silence! :eek:

It's a losing battle?? :confused:
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Did you switch to BT before turning off the unit for the flash?

Have you the flash.bin and mcu.bin in the root of SD?

Can you try with the original i802 recovery files from first post?

I know other people got the same troubles you are having downgrading but at the end they got it working.
[Android Head-Units] royalhawk2002:
4.03 rooted FW last Gapps 1.1 from TvBifi:

I found a strange issue with wifi. First time, when the ROM was installed, the WIFI connected without problems. Today, after about a week from the installation, the WIFI doesn't connect anymore, both on free and protected networks.

I can see the SSID (full signal strenght), I see "acquiring IP address" and the "Saved" without connection. I made different try resetting USB dongle, router etc... but it doesn't work.

Is a FW problem or USB dongle problem ?
[Android Head-Units] DenisMS79:
Such a problem is the second time. The first time had to reset to factory settings. It is also interesting solution.
[Android Head-Units] transsoniku:
Well, the kotix rom works great, fast and stable.

Two problems only, i cannot make the HU to enable the wifi, the adapter it not even light the led, and the second one is the 3g functions, doesnt work. Any idea with the wifi adapter?

The HU is a I004
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Your wifi dongle must be a compatible one (ralink chipset) then try first your wifi adapter on a pc, it's happend that sometimes they are not configured well.

For the 3G functions you should try "PPP widget", get it on play store, the fw has lack of features on that side.
[Android Head-Units] transsoniku:
strange the dongle worked with 2.3.4
[Android Head-Units] gochapka:
Yes, I know and I did.

Yes, in the root of the SD the I001 folder (with files inside) and also at the root all those files, loose.

I try, but it gives me something scary make as many attempts and after the HU die forever! would be possible? because in the process, if you stop, feed sack maybe you could damage something, no? :confused:

I'll try. From already thank you very much for your info and dedication. :good: :laugh:

Too bad having to leave your version is very interesting :laugh: , but unfortunately in my HU is a bit unstable. :( Thank you very much! :good::good:

shortly ... 2 beers

:good:
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
The 4.03 fw don't have all the drivers that are in the 2.34 fw. Either for wifi and for 3G

---------- Post added at 03:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:44 PM ----------

It's never happened since now that a unit died because of a bad flash even if there will always be a first time, just cross your fingers.:P

To go back to 2.34 I would do this, use the original i802 SD Recovery, get it here:

http://ul.to/khtg47f2

Your SD must be already fused with the u-boot_sd.bin (you have a copy of it in the i802SD recovery.zip too) , then copy in the root of SD (there is no need of any other folder) these files:

-flash.bin

-mcu.bin

-urecovery_sd.img

-zimage

-update_sd.zip

-config folder previously adjusted with your model config

Maybe you could try to do a reset on the unit before switching it off, just to be sure nothing "dirty" is left on the mcu.

Then go in BT screen, disconnect all devices and Turn Off the unit.

Put sd in gps slot and turn on.

There is nothing more to know about it, or at least this is all I know and i'm sure many other people have successfully gone back to 2.34 with this procedure.
[Android Head-Units] gochapka:
Thank you, very clear explanation, proof newbies as I!

:confused: A simple and silly question, perhaps, but do "reset" is push the button, hidden, close to the mic, in the bottom left? :o

Ask before you do something wrong.
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Yes.

Somebody said to hold it while the unit boot up. I never did it but you can try that too just to be sure it does a full reset.
[Android Head-Units] TvBIFI:
hmm strange mine is working great but i have this Dongle

COMFAST-Wireless-LAN-Stick-USB-150Mbps-IEEE802-11B-G-N-CF-WN720N

It finds allways my Android Hotspot and when comming home powerdown AndroidHS he finds and switches automatic to my Home WLAN
[Android Head-Units] transsoniku:
now its even stranger, i have the same dongle....:highfive:

anyway, 4.0.3 works great except wifi and 3g

now i did an downgrade with KoTix instrctions 2.3.4

the strange think on downgrade was that the HU seemed to be bloked at the final process (beep beep...and black screen) but after i reboot it all was ok.

i attached the config files wich worked for me ok I004 VW platform 2.3.4 and 4.0.3

keep up the good work.
[Android Head-Units] royalhawk2002:
exactly the same dongle also for me. Today I did a factory reset and, for now, WIFI is working. I will check in the following days.

---------- Post added at 09:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:15 PM ----------

when I did the downgrade from 4.03 to 2.3.4 , same happened to me.
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
So are you on 2.34 now?

Thinking about it a little more, there is not even need to flash the mcu to downgrade android, the mcu doesn't change between android versions and we could mod the updater script in the ROM to disable the mcu flash. we could probably also take the bin files from a wince firmware and it would work too.

So even if your downgrade did not run till the end and the mcu hasn't been flashed, you still have it flashed from the previous 4.03 Fw.

AC control

Hi guys , how can I activate AC information on screen ? my unit is S100 - C209

Thanks,
[Android Head-Units] mtresk:
I think that if I’ll make the upgrade from 2.3 to 4.0.3 without mcu, the image from rear view camera will be normal (not zoomed) because it is mcu problem. Yesterday I made ​​a downgrade from 4.0.3 to 2.3 and after flashing mcu remains from 4.0.3 and the zoom bug was still there. Today I’ll check my theory.
[Android Head-Units] mtresk:
Success! Rearview camera works as intended! I want to ask KoTiX replace mcu in Official 4.03 Aroma-Root_v1.0.rar on this (attached)
[Android Head-Units] royalhawk2002:
I think that using Aroma installer could be flashed only the MCU...isn't it ?
[Android Head-Units] mtresk:
Yes, but only mcu, which is included in the firmware.
[Android Head-Units] royalhawk2002:
Just substitute new mcu in the upgrade sd and then run the upgrade selecting only MCU...should work! :rolleyes:
[Android Head-Units] transsoniku:
Yes now i am on 2.34 and works all ok, i had only one problem when i downgraded, when it started to write the flash it dosent reboot, just stuck beeping, and i reset it manualy after 25 min, but after restart all was ok, an wifi became active.

I didnt compare the bin files for mcu but i think you may be right and they are the same.
[Android Head-Units] mtresk:
4.0.3 and 2.3 has the same MCU, but different versions. MCU from 4.0.3 has camera zoom bug, MCU from 2.3 hasn't.
[Android Head-Units] Franvior:
3G Modems

Hi,

I have found a path in our units where i think the 3G configuration resides. Path is /etc/usb_modem/configs.

Inside it you can find the different configs for modems.

I downloaded one of them huawei 1750 and tried to prepare the same for E3131 but the problem is that you have to put other two files to select this configuration file. I don't remember the path and i cannot check the path right now.

Other two configuration files are: usb_device_config.ini and modem_device_config.ini.

Example of configuration for E1750 in modem_device_config.ini

[HUAWEI-E1750]

name=HUAWEI-E1750

model=11.124

idVendor=12d1

idProduct=1001

deviceport=/dev/ttyUSB2

dataport=/dev/ttyUSB0

libpath=/system/lib/libdatacard-ril.so

Example of configuration for E1750 in usb_device_config.ini

[HUAWEI-E1750]

name=HUAWEI-E1750

idVendor=12d1

idProduct=1446

configpath=/data/usb_modem/configs/huawei_e1750

Example of configuration i was creating for E3131 in huawei_e3131

#####################################

# Huawei E3131

DefaultVendor = 0x12d1

DefaultProduct = 0x14fe

TargetVendor = 0x12d1

TargetProduct = 0x1506

MessageContent = "55534243123456780000000000000011062000000100000000000000000000"

#####################################

So my problem is that i don't know what to put in modem_device_config.ini for E3131.

For usb_device_config.ini it should just to put same values + path of huawei_e3131.

Maybe it is a starting point to make all the 3G dongles to work without PPP Widget.

What do you think?

Thanks!
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Not really, the system partition is always updated even if you don't select anything, and you'll lost all your apps too because the installer is not working well righ now.

Some things of the updater script that were working fine in the beta fw, I found that they don't work in the official fw.

I need to refine the installer script giving different options from how it is now, the custom Install should become:

- Standard Parts (yes/no)

- System Update ( Including config and data wipe) (yes/no)

- Preinstall Apps (Yes/no but only if System Update is checked)

- BT (yes/no)

- Flash and MCU (yes/no)

What do you think? Any other suggestion?
[Android Head-Units] transsoniku:
good thing you find the modem config files.

now you just need to find out the vid and pid for the usb driver and modem also and just add them. also need to find the drivers for them, they should be on modem. i think this can be test it....
[Android Head-Units] Franvior:
VID and PID can be got from this link:

http://dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/3G_/_3.5G#HUAWEI

The problem is the string model... how can i get it?

For example for E1750 it is model=11.124.

Regarding the drivers i will check in the dongle if they are inside.
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
I decompiled PPP widget, inside there are many configs, maybe this one is the one you are looking for?:

# Huawei E392u-12, E3131 (Variant)

TargetVendor= 0x12d1

TargetProductList="151b,151d"

MessageContent="55534243123456780000000000000011062000000100000000000000000000"
[Android Head-Units] Franvior:
Thanks [MENTION=2734955]KoTiX2[/MENTION].

Indeed this is part of what i think i need.

For the other two files i would need other parameters and now i think i have all of them except MODEL.

I was also investigating in the unit and i have seen the following script: init.gprs-pppd.

Looking into the code it seems as the one that detect the 3g Dongle.

Is it possible to force the execution of this script using TASKER? I want to do this because sometimes the unit is switched ON but the 3G Device (other Huawei dongle i have E1750) is not detected. In these cases i have to restart but i think if i could force the execution of this script, 3G dongle would be detected.

Is that possible in tasker?

THANKS!!!!!

Hello everyone,

I'm curious if anyone has my problem where the music player does not show the album art, and doesn't parse the track name, artist and album name correctly?

I have the head unit from this link: http://www.carnaviplayer.com/android-os-navigation-radio-player-for-nissan-all-series-p-1027
[Android Head-Units] gochapka:
HI, in my case I do not see is the image of the album, if I use the original Video Player, with other apk no problem.
[Android Head-Units] kaween:
Yup. The stock player only shows 50% or so of the cover art embedded in my mp3's. I've never found out just what the problem was. It's not the size of the artwork as I've seen issues with cover art on 200x200 as well as 600x600 ... never found an explenation why some covers would show, and other's wouldn't. When I played those mp3's with other Players (Rocketplayer, Poweramp) I didn't have any issues.
[Android Head-Units] dom_christo:
Can confirm the same issues.

I have not tested Official 4.03 though so can't comment of this.

I have uninstalled BackCar.apk from my unit, Rearview still works. but is "Zoomed" while the OS is running.

If I turn the unit OFF and put it in reverse, the rear view appears normal.

Could it be a resolution settings?

Does [MENTION=2734955]KoTiX2[/MENTION] custom rom run at a different resolution to the 2.34 and 4.03 official firmware?

Seems very strange indeed.
[Android Head-Units] mtresk:

[Android Head-Units] dom_christo:

[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
I tested your MCU file on my i001and it's not right for me. It looks like if it's better if everybody use the mcu version that come with the original firmware of his model.

It's enought to include flash.bin and mcu.bin in the winca folder and the update will use those files instead of the ones included in the update.zip
[Android Head-Units] DSGVW:
Noob question..

Is there anyway to make a third party audio file player the default player? Is it possible to have it autostart similar to the way the standard audio player works? I'm back on 2.3.4 for reference. I love JetAudio player but I always have to manually start it.
[Android Head-Units] plic157:
In your opinion is it possible that the USB socket built into our car works on the S100 uploading the two files flash.bin and mcu taking from version 2.3?
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Hi guys, an italian friend found a great app to have mirrorlink throught wifi on our units. The app is MirrorOp, it's not free but you can try it out.

1. Install MirrorOp Sender on your phone https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.awindinc.sphone2tv&hl=it

2. Install MirrorOp receiver on your carnavi player https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.awindinc.receiver&hl=it

3. Enable wifi tethering, connect radio to phone, config receiver and sender, press play.

Enjoy your phone mirrored on the unit.
