Hi Guys,

i tried to use the 3G Stick ZTE MF190 on my S100 with Kotix-Android but i have the known problem that i cannot save the APN settings.

So do someone know a way to change the APN Setting with root-explorer on file system in such as an xml file or something like that?

I also tried a small mobile wifi router which works very well but the problem is, that its only running with the battery inside. Not the best idea for use on the dashboard with 30° (Celsius ;) ) and full sun power.

Thanks
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
Maybe, but i did not tried:

/etc/apns-conf.xml

There are only a few providers and my provider is'nt in that list but it works either. I guess it use the settings from the sim card or the stick has its own apn table and my provider is in that list.

Another thing to try is to set another default profile using a terminal: Search for "AT+CGDCONT".
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
In my ROM i have replaced the apn-conf file with the one provided by cwm with the "apn huge list". The list is pretty big, should include yours too.

---------- Post added at 04:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:16 PM ----------

I'll add the encore to the list, tnx.

Next thing I'll try to do is to add init.d.

Is there any workaround to install Google services on original 4.0.3 ROM?
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
You need gapps and the correct service framework.

Anyway let me clarify this:

my custom ROM is the original rom! Infact system.IMG is copied as it is on the radio, just gapps are added without asking to the user throught the aroma installer. All other mods are injected later according to the user choices in aroma.

The other things like bootanimation, user apps etc... can ne removed by the user before install simply deleting them from their "winca/...whatever" folder.

So if you like to add gapps manually you can extract them from the update_s150a.zip in my ROM.
[Android Head-Units] 1mdl:
Hi KoTiX2.

I have installed your new rom. A good job.

With your aroma vefore this rom, i got root.

Suprise, with this rom the unit is not rooted,

Is it normal.

I have done with androroot but don,t like the SU wich is installed with the apk. Super SU don't work with yhis apk???:good:
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
You should do a "Custom install" and select root in the aroma options
[Android Head-Units] 1mdl:
ok.

Thanks a lot :good:

I realy miss a good function of wince:

-Navigation sound is mixed with audio player sound.

On android. navigation messages cancel the music player sound until voice guidance it finish the message.

Any way to make this feature in android rom?
[Android Head-Units] Dvampoul:
KotiX 2.6 Version Based on 06.06.2014 4.03 ICS.

@ Kotix since i spent several hours to re-tune my i802 i identified the bellow 2 issues (minor i suppose)

1)Calibration menu is actually disabled (but no need for calibration) in my i802 everything works fine from the first reboot.

2)Sometimes when Bluetooth is Enabled but IDLE (Not connected) symbol on ICS system bar being disappeared. If you try to connect any BT device connection is being established as it should and symbol appeared as "blue" CONNECTED.

I am just telling you them if you could include any fix in your next ROM.

Keep going. You are God of S150/S100 units :good::good::good:

music on s150

hi all

I have installed the android 4.0.3 from kotix on my kia ceed, thanks Kotix it works pretty nicely. However, after i copy all music in the music folder in the USB (no folders of course) but it does not recognize albums either (just 6 of 15)

i have tried to use another players (n7player, vlc, music folder...) and they work fine however steering wheel controls do not work properly (only volume works actually)

any ideas?

thanks so much
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Swc don't work on third party players and it gas ben written all over here.

I have my music in a music folder on USB too and each album in separated folders:

- album view depend on mp3 tags and you probably have some missing tags

- i use mostly the folder view because i feel more comfortable

- i use jetaudio and the stickmount app to make it see my USB hdd, otherwise it wont recognize it.

Please help for me.

- I use the official 4.0.3 ROM on my S150 (I145 device)

- I rooted my device with "Baidu Root".

- I edited the ROOT/SYSTEM/build.prop file via RootExplorer app. I inserted 4 new line (end of file):

ro.kernel.android.checkjni=0

ro.kernel.checkjni=0

persist.sys.strictmode.visual=0

persist.sys.strictmode.disable=1

- I installed the WAZE apk 3.8.1, but waze not running. I accept the license agreement when the Waze app is exits... :(

Thanks a lot....

On my C308 this doesn't happen, as is a stock 4.0.3 system. Winca gave me the option to flash either WinCE or Android, I went with droid of course.

I don't know if there's another system that allows both OSs officially, but I guess if we compare them both, we might solve a lot of bugs left by the manufacturer.

[Android Head-Units] Goldcat22:

[Android Head-Units] 1mdl:
Hello KoTiX. Everything is OK with your 2.6 (only multimedia apk doesn't, but we know it is a hardware problem)

With Dtv, i only have sound, no picture. I have verified with ##0323 and Digit TV is on.

Do you have an idea?

So far same issue with my CANBUS (no system sounds)

Here are my stock system settings (untitled.jpg) and. I also attached a weird Hyundai Canbus process, which is always running. Maybe that's the normal process that runs, which communicates with the red boxes? Who knows.
[Android Head-Units] matekhr:
Maybe a silly idea, but did you check the connection of the little loudspeaker supplied with the unit?
[Android Head-Units] costinradu:
No,Is not a hardware problem,Instal windowsCE and you will see the diference,The problem is from android rom but is not Kotix fault.Maybe we will have from chinese team a good rom without this problem.
[Android Head-Units] 1mdl:
Hello. You tell it is a rom problem. You speak about Dtv or Mp3 and vidéo reader.

You tell me wince. Ok but how to do it and is it possible to come back to Android.

on wince, does Radio, BT, USB, Digital Tv, card reader, CD,.....work ?:good:

Thank you
[Android Head-Units] costinradu:
In my unit everything work,I don.t have digital TV.I love android but sometimes i need to restart the unit for audio player to work with sound.

[Android Head-Units] 1mdl:

What to do before installing wince 'backup.....)

And how to do to install it properly for coming back later to android.

Why do you affirm that it is a rom problem and not a hardware problem??

:good:
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
2.6 have some fixes for the keep data function and some of the winca apps are from 0801 firmware. If you are on 2.4 you can stay on it.

---------- Post added at 10:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:48 PM ----------

Because he said that everything is OK on wince.

I already told you too to try flashing wince because it's the best way to be sure it's not a hw problem.

Prepare the sd with wince-sdboot and copy c001 Fw on it.

To go back to android you nerd SD flasher as usual.
[Android Head-Units] 1mdl:
Thank KoTiX.

You know i am not a pro.

Where to find c001 Fw

Ans about my message :

Do you have a idea?? :good::good::good:
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
I can't answer your question about dtv, sorry.

On carnaviplayer.com you'll find the firmware.
[Android Head-Units] np27np27:
I've tried flashing back to wince and the problem is still there!

Conclusion? Hardware problem!

Software faults rarely result in issues like this. The sound was there and all of a sudden with no change in the software its not there.....??? I don't think so [emoji15]
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Maybe we have a different problem: me, constinradu and 1mdl sometimes have sound back. Constinradu has switched back to wince and audio was back, today my unit has lost mp3 audio again and i'll try wince too tomorrow.

Maybe it's just a bad mcu.bin... i never had the problem on older mcu like p002.

Hello,

I´ve a small problem. I want install Wavesink Plus on my Device. I´ve buyed the App today. I cant Download the App from Playstore but the app will show as not compatible. Has anyone an Idea how i can get the app on my device with playstore? The App Markethelper will not work...

Has anybody tryed the device in build.prop? Will it work?

Edit: The Wavesink Trial will work perfectly(i have installed via apk from the web.)
[Android Head-Units] np27np27:
Well this similar to myself to. My audio was on and off for several months before it finally died permanently. To be honest, I never check anymore, so potentially it still may come on again now and then!

I key thing for me is that it started before I updated the firmware, while I was still on wince.

I need to find a hot gun to try to reflow, I'm hoping that may work. But bit busy at the moment. Has anyone else tried it yet??

Dear all,

I have just 3 questions:

1. Which ELM327 WIFI works? I already have a BT OBD2 interface but obviously I can't use it with my S150 (Android 4.x) because it is only a client. Instead of using another Android phone with VNC or MirrorOP or whatever can a WIFI OBD2 interface work? If it does can you please recommend a very small one? My connector is between the brake and acceleration pedals (STUPID POSITION) and I can't plug the full size one as I step on it with my feet. For the same reason the USB version is not ok for me because I will trip over the wires and the last thing I need is more wires in my car.

2. Which 3G dongle works? I really an always on connection with my car Android device.

3. If my WIFI connection is stuck with ELM327 continously, where do I put the 3G dongle? In the other USB port which I currently use for music (usb stick)? Is there anyway to replace the "ipod" cable with a 3G model thus having an extra USB connector?

Thank you.

1) I have this one : h t t p://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6051461522.html and it works flawlessly with the S150. Son't know about the smaller ones. If push comes to shove, you can use an OBD extension cable as those are smaller than most OBD interfaces.

2) has been answered by tigiy above, Have no experience with it as I use a hidden old droid Phone as fixed handsfree/3G/Wif-AP/Car locator.

3) ... you can use a small, powered usb hub. If the load is small enough, even an unpowered one may do. Did some tests back in the days with an unpowered one and it worked well enough.

[Android Head-Units] 1mdl:
I don't understand. Can you specify please.:good:
[Android Head-Units] Candanga:
Great! In the mean time I would like to report my upgrade results:

-No issues so far:victory:, reason I upgraded was to get rid of the Boot logo that got stuck about 1/5 times, so I would have to report more on that later

-The update procedure went pretty well, I may add that instead of 20 seconds or beeps, its about 40 to 1minute of beeps :silly:

-There's now a USB version function from which I can choose either 1.0 or 2.0 versions

-MCU was updated to latest version

-There maybe some other new menus or options around, but I would have to check later

-GPS/BT working as designed

-When trying to enable the WiFi, it got stuck, so I reset it (I thing the same thing happen with the prev. version)

-Internal SD data is intact

Now, some weird stuff that I noticed, is that I made a system reset (per upgrade guide), but after that (and the flash), my EQ settings and BT pairings are still there... WiFi Pairings are gone. Waze also installed without a hassle and didn't crash.
[Android Head-Units] Candanga:
I didn't have system sounds cause I didn't install a "speaker" which came with the HU. Reason I didn't do that was because I didn't have a clue what was it for.

Also, the CANBUS interface had a cable which is labeled CAR ALARM, so the speaker was supposed to be connected there and the manual didn't specify that. It is the only connector that goes to the CANBUS interface (red box), not the HU itself.

I still have a spare connector which has live 12v. No idea whats it for. I attached a picture of it in a prev. post.

I asked the manufacturer about it and they replied "The cable picture you provided it is for connecting the original car small screen..." Go figure.
