I am using the S150 on a Kia Sorento 2007 (Android 4.x version). I am very happy with it apart from two problems:

1. Sometimes the steering wheel buttons do not work - or they do the wrong thing (such as volume up goes down). After pressing more times eventually they start to work ok. Another problem is that sometimes I can't turn on cruise control function (although that button is not available with the unit). I have to shutdown the unit, then press cruise control and then power on the Android unit and everything works just fine including the cruise control. So there must be something related to how it interprets the steering wheel buttons. Any clues?

2. The caller id number appears instead of the contact name when I receive a call. My contacts are synced with the Android unit (I am using a Note 3). If I previously go to contacts screen in the bluetooth app from S150 then after that the caller id appears as a contact whenever I get a call.

Did anyone find a fix for the above problems?

Thank you.

1. Do you have a canbus decoder, or use the SW1(KEY1)/SW2(KEY2) wires for SWC?

My brother has the i802 with stock 4.0 and the only problem with the SWC is in the radio app When press the NEXT/PREVIOUS button on the steering wheel, not jumps to the next/prev saved preset channel, but start an autoscan to the nearest channel's frequency.

2. Exactly the same problem.

Poweramp, ipod startup apps and other issues

Hey there.

I managed to search some topics througout the thread, but some doubts remained unanswered.

- Would it ever be a better ipod app that allows us to have lists, cover arts, search options etc?

- Is there a way to make an app like poweramp to startup everytime?

- Anyone tried an external hd with poweramp? Will it work? Im thinking about getting a 500gb drive to fill with songs and vids.
[Android Head-Units] 1mdl:

To start with Power Amp. Not possible.

Can I please ask any S150 users running android 4.0 in Itally to test Tomtom Go functionality?

As we know TT (old application) was nothing but trouble and the new Go Mobile application was pilot tested in Italy and now is available for 5 more countries.

Hence I would be interested to see people feedback and pretty sure a lot of other users will benefit from it.

Is my unit dead?

Hello all,

I think my S100 (converted to S150) unit is dead.

When I turn the key, the unit beeps and checks the DVD player, but after a series of beep, it do it again (beep, DVD player check and so) and screen still black.

I've try to flash it with the original firmware, but nothing happend.

I think it's the cpu board who's dead.

Where can I buy a new one ?

S150 3g and WIFI connection indication.

Another little issue with my S150. About 1 month ago I managed to activate my 3G connection using a Huawei E173 USB Dongle. As nominal, when the network signal is connected, the indication of signal (bars) in the right upper corner is “solid” and colored of blue. About 1 week ago, without any apparent matter, the connection still works but the signal indicator is “solid” but grey. Since I was thinking that some app that I have installed make some change to Android configuration, today I reinstalled completely the firmware (Kotix 4.0.3 Ver. 2.6). For an hour everything was ok, but now I am in the same situation…. Connection is ok but signal is grey. Also for WIFI connection I have the same situation.

Nav program, as act on my unit with Kotix 2.6 4.0.3 FW, starts at unit startup only if was running before shutdown. To avoid it starting at boot perform the following before Unit shut down:

1) Exit the running Nav program

2) Open or close and re-open FM Radio or stock Video Player or stock Music Player

3) Shut down the unit

At next boot the Nav program shouldn't be started.

SD Flasher on S150

Hey!

Am new here and found this thread when I searched a bit for the S100 / S150.

Seeing that it is over 400 pages long and I was wondering if I could ask a question without having to read all the pages?!? Would take a while.

If that goes for up, so my question is the following:

Can I use the SD Flasher program to make an SD boot disk instead of doing an SD boot disk using Linux? :o

(Does not have Linux on any computer and is not intended to install it either, yes, I know I can run Linux virtual but think that SD Flasher is a bit smoother.)

GPS Speed

An issue I have from a long time is the GPS speed that about every 10 minutes for few minutes drop to 0 randomly.

I mean my car is running, via SpeedView or GPS infos or a navigation software I watch my speed on s150 display, every about 10 minutes I see the speed drop to 0 for one second then correct speed for few seconds and then again 0 for 1 or 2 seconds and again correct speed. After few minutes with this situation everything’s return normal for several minutes and then again the situation described.

First question :

anybody has experimented such situation. And if yes, any solution?

I tried disabling Android geolocalization I tried all the GPS software’s that show GPS speed with always same situation. I had the same behavior with 2.3.4 version and now with the "new" 4.03....

I tried after the fresh 4.03 installation without any other sw installed via GPS monitor ad got the same problem.

I suppose it is a software problem because for several minutes the speed is correct without drops to 0.

Any advice is really welcome, because now with sygic the zoom is related to the speed and is very annoying a continues zoon from 0 to more than 100km/h for few minutes.
[Android Head-Units] np27np27:
Yes i have the same problem. It does not do it on windows ce so i suspect its a software or mcu issue. I seem to remember some of the earlier releases of the o/s it worked fine. But i can't be bothered to install old versions and test. [emoji37]

[Android Head-Units] np27np27:
Yes definitely annoying but the sat nav apps still work. Does anyone have a android/kotix rom installed where it does not do this? Then maybe we can narrow down the fault. I'm pretty certain it did not do this on the early kotix or roadnav roms [emoji6]
[Android Head-Units] Franky692:
GPS SPEED drop to 0

I'm using the last roadnav rom for i061 and the problem is still present. I suppose there is a request or interference of some service / application that every some minutes create the situation.

hi everybody.

I have a s100 winca headunit. I want to upgrade this to s150 (android version). but i did'nt find the firmware. my questions are:

1) does anybody have the android version for mazda 3 2010 (i034)? please link me.

Also im trying to use an other FM Radio apk to have storage by RDS name and not by 89.3MHz.

[MENTION=2734955]KoTiX2[/MENTION]: you do a very good job with your skins and modded firmwares. keep the good work up

I have yesterday tester android again because I would like to test sygic and TomTom.

TomTom don't work after you have download the maps and TomTom would like to start it crash after loading I think we have to little memory.

Sygic works now much better I could drive 30 min without crash. But when I go to highway it start to lzoom in and out and lose the speed and go to 0. But on normal street works it fine.

I go new version works also very good and better on android than wince.

Just sad that android is so slow to start but all work fine and by wince it is hard to get I go to run good with new version and thew is no sygic version.

I had the 2.3.4 version for months with the GPS speed drop to 0 problems, then I upgraded to the 4.03 android ver. The first test I performed was the gps speed stability, before install any apk via GPS monitor, sadly the problem was still present. I suppose that upgrading android from 2.3.4 to 4.03 the Google Play services are new version. I'm afraid the issue is related to the HW board version. Infact same firmwares on different HW can have or not the issue as you can read Royal Hawk has not the speed drop to 0 issue for example.

Yesterday I run for 350km on highway after 50km I disabled auto zoom in sygic to avoid the continuos zoom in and out.

It happen about every 10 minutes for few minutes, very strange and with this behaviour seems related to the software, but really hard to understand if related to the MCU or Android software or to the HW as I suspect....

I wait for a fix.... if possible

[Android Head-Units] woma1:
I think the problem is not due to the GPS antenna. The problem stems from the quality of the device or firmware. For me, any application that uses the GPS shows every few seconds speed 0. Then shows real speed and again 0. And so the circle. I've had a few different versions ROM. Always the same. I just got used to the "minor" inconveniences.

Yesterday I used Copilot as Navigator software, and after more than 300km I can say that with copilot the speed never drops to 0. I tried switching from SpeedView to Sygic to Driver widgets and Copilot: while with all the first 3 applications the speed was dropping to 0 (in interval as usual) with Copilot never at and the same time....

I don't know if Copilot uses a different function to caltulate the speed instead of using the OS info or if copilot can simply filter the 0 values.... but at the end speed in copilot doesn't drop.

I guess it 's only the speed info that drop to 0 or loose data, while the GPS position continue to update regularly we can check it wuith a GPS info monitor or simpli watching the navigator car cursor that continue to move even if the speed is to 0.

A good way to test the issue is using SpeedView apk since it has a speed graphic at the bottom and you can easily see some holes. With that graph I can see that the drop to 0 happens regularly when is in its period.

---------- Post added at 03:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:03 PM ----------

Yes but I need to check what's happen disconnecting the battery to my car.... for example I remember I lose some Windows settings.... but sure a simple way is to disconnect battery....
[Android Head-Units] woma1:
Since my device from time to time be suspended entirely, so I have to disconnect the battery for a few minutes to bring him back to life. However, this does not affect the issue tle generally temporary loss of the GPS signal and output speed of 0 (as I wrote earlier). In my opinion this is a bad way to go.
