I think you can hook into the virtual codes that it translates to in wheelcodes.xml (I think that's the name, im at my office, sorry), and then use a keymapper / keyboard-shortkey app of some sorts to start a chosen app (Home 2 back? etc).

I assume it would be possible to use logcat (never used it before in my life, but heard good stuff about it) to log every keystroke / command / hw-signal in/out of the unit. You can find it in system/bin if im not mistaken, and you can start it via scripter or terminal in e.x ROM toolbox and set it up as a startup-script.

Im definately going to dig some into finding these keys/commands later when I've resolved the worst of my own problems (which is trying to prevent the Radio from starting. Have gotten Sygic not to start now, all needed is just to install it while there is no sdcards in any slots, then go to navigation settings and choose Sygic but not choose anything for path (since it then will use internal memory), and thats it. That will prevent Sygic from automatically starting.

If one then wants the maps on sd, you can go into internal memory/Sygic/Android folder and set up another maps-directory directly in settings.ini, then when done messing around with settings.ini, you then delete settings2.dat (which is a "cache" of some sorts for settings.ini").

Have you tried the hidden Factory Mode-menu? In there you can set AMP on/off. The hiss is worse when its ON i think, or vice versa, try both. The one that gives HIGHEST sound is the better one in my case, so I would have to have it really loud for the hiss to become audible.

To get to Factory Mode menu:

Blutooth -> punch in ##0323 (or was it #00323) and hit "connect/dial

(PS: It has nothing to do with resetting the unit aka Factory settings, so no worries).

Android 2.03 startup problem Hardware FIX

Android 2.03 short start-up / startup error Bug fix:

Ok, I started searching, and because I really think the gingerbread ROM is the way to go with this device, and that probably we won't be able to fix this bug in software, I managed to find a hardware fix that I'll install to my car as soon I'll have time to spare.

It involves just installing a delay relay to the ACC line before the radio, it this way, by adding a delay when the ACC line goes off, we still allow the radio do do a complete startup. A delay of 30 seconds to 1 minute should be more than enough.

http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/topic/24506-diy-headlight-delay-off-function-with-a-relay-harness/

All I have to do is identify the correct relay that I need to use!

Can't wait...

NOTE: Some cars can have this kind of relay already fitted so some user never experience the bug!

Android Gingerbread delayed shutdown mod - fixes startup bug.

Alright I identified the correct relay I need to use, it's fairly simple to connect. Here is a page of a Romanian distributor (use it just to get the info you need)

The relay is called (I've tried to translate it in English as good as I could): Automotive timer relay - delayed shutdown, positive command, positive output, 12V/40A

The Pins are

86 CMD (command): ACC line

87a NC (Normal Connect) : not connected

30 C (Common) : 12V+ (from car)

87 NO (Normal Open) : here you have to connect the unit's ACC line input

85 GND

The relay once it senses +signal on CMD it closes C + NO including the timer period

On shutdown the relay still provides +12V for the selected period of time... That's it, it's a 5 minute job after you have access to the unit. Gingerbread here I come!

[MENTION=1108459]kotix[/MENTION]: As now we have a fix, ok, ok, not cheap and hardware, but a fix nonetheless, could you start porting your patches to gingerbread? Aroma installer with root and modified aps would be a godsend.

This fix can also be applied to any unit, even ICS, it ensures a proper start shutdown cycle.

Edit: datasheet file also in Romanian but you could use Google Translate on it!

S100/150 Wiki updated, also added USB OTG pinout for adb access to the unit and magazine pinout hardware mods!

Have you ever had the same.

After install, i put my two micro sd card into the unit.

Nothing happen in Gps slot (normal)

In media slot, automatic creation of media folders (music....)

I shut down the unit and take off the média card.

I put some music in the music folder and create a new folder with others no media files, named "my folder"

I put the card in, i start the unit on.

I use a folder browser and then :

I see this on media micro sd card : music, piture, video, lost file and SDCARD??

i dubble click on SD card i there i see the folders music, with my new music files in, picture, vidéo, and "my folder"

Hey guys,

Is it possible to exchange the display unit in the s150 device?

Since you can adjust the display type in the config file, the drivers should be available in the unit.

I want to exchange my old resistive touch to the newer capacitive ones.

Would be great if someone knows about the possibilities as well as about the availability of the single displays

Thx in advance

Hello KoTiX; taking up the themes of my HU for now not upgraded anything since managed the DSP is ok : Laugh: ; I do not want to lose again! : (

One problem I'm facing is that I have no audio output from USB and SD ports and from Aux 1 & 2 inputs; from GPS (Radio, CD, DVD, VCDC audio output is good); can be, as you get deep into your entire system, you have over there, in some programming 1 which is 0 or vice versa and to prevent having these audio outputs??.

It also occurs to me zoomead image when playing a DVD in full screen; when he sees reduced (by setting the video) is ok!

My question is can we route the audio from the android system to the audio channel that is used by the stock apps?
[Android Head-Units] mihaiolimpiu:
Yes, check the config folders, there are only SCREEN variables (but haven't seen anyone with a capacitive one), canbus settings, MCU volumes and settings, all the the rest are button mappings, only the faceplate is different.

In the good old days I used to flash any firmware I could find on my I802, mini cooper, VW, kia, all worked, I only had to use my config folder (If you save it directly from the unit after it's configured, the configuration is already applied when you flash the firmware with your config folder)
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Of coarse.. the same for my C001/I001 model but it's a different story for the models with canbus or other specific hw, not all the canbus type are supported yet by the 4.03 fw and also some guys with a 4.3inch display have everything zoomed because they cannot find an android mcu yet for that kind of display.

So on that list i guess there are the fully compatible models till now.
[Android Head-Units] manuellatif:
you could be right :)

But did someone actually took a look inside the unit and checked if there is the neccessary connection available on the logicboard?

Because as far as i heard, those units are sold with multitouch and with singletouch displays.

and in that case i would doubt that they have different mainboards with different possibilities.

Are pictures of the open unit or mainboard of the s150 devices available?

Yep, I just installed the build # IML74K-20140421 for my I052 BMW E46 with MCU: 0004 and FLASH: S00C. Everything seems to be working well, and it fixed one issue I was having with KotiX2's Aroma Root v1.1 where 3rd party app shortcuts in the bottom bar would disappear after a reboot. I've only been using it for a day but the constant hiss seems to be a little less prevalent, could just be wishful thinking though. Also a major issue I'm having is I can't install any APK's, I get some parsing error so I'm going to try KoTiX2's Aroma Root v2.1 tonight.

Does anyone know if it would be possible to use this newer MCU: 0004 and FLASH: S00C with KoTiX2's Aroma Root v2.1? Or if this would even make a difference at all?

But we've tested several 4.0 units recently, they are not as stable as we expected.

[Android Head-Units] Karmacom:
Hi Allen. By 4.0, you mean 4.0.3 right? I sent you a mail a couple of days ago (my name is Magnus, forgot to mention that I'm Karmacom here on xda).

What's the difference / bugfixes compared to the last 28/3-2014-version for I001? And what's different with this 0004 MCU compared to the V003 that came with the previous fw for I001?

Do you have any instructions on how the rearview cam/ rearview app should work (BackCar?) All i get is black, while in some other third party camera apps I get the rearview-camera stream fine.

Thanks in advance.

---------- Post added at 09:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:24 AM ----------

I will try tonight, promise.

I will first try via normal settings->system update from fw 28/3 -> this latest one.

If that doesnt work, I will put it in by fusing, then try normal settings->system update from this latest one -> this latest one

BTW: DO i need the latest version of your 2.1, or is the one you gave me a week ago (the beta) sufficient, by that I mean: Have you put in some code in the very last 2.1 to try and make Settings-> system update work that isnt present in the 2.1 you gave me?
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
No, i didn't change anything regarding this problem.

Maybe it's just my problem or maybe they added a stronger check to prevent people from updating from a 2.34 fw to 4.03.

I mean prevent to load 4.03 fw on units with encription chip onboard. (it's just a thought btw)
[Android Head-Units] mihaiolimpiu:
Keep is clean, keep it fast!

Kotix firmware should be compatible with every unit, JUST COPY YOUR CONFIG folder from android 2.03 (from the unit itself or from a Gingerbread firmware). Only problem could be wrong MCU, or BT module, DON'T FLASH THEM, or some kind of CANBUS inconsistencies (if you can live with that, I don't use it so there is no advice to give).

KOTIX's firmware is basically THE OFFICIAL firmware with different fixes injected, it's the same code, the same problems, the same functionality. Don't expect it to do magical stuff, at least not right now, we don't have the source so it's just basic tinkering (but quite magical :) ).

If you encounter any problem you can always fix the unit by using a fused SD card with gingerbread bootloader and firmware (only S150), you can find every info and required files in the first post of this thread and on Kotix's blog.

Converted S100 accept only ICS firmware because of missing encryption cip. It was just sheer luck that it worked the first time so be thankful for that.

I ALREADY SAID THIS 20 TIMES NOW!!! READ THE WHOLE THREAD! Read the Ouku thread, this thread was split from that one and it's still good info there.

Please don't spam the thread, use PM or at least common sense!

Please keep IGO questions to youself, it has been discussed million of times! Keep this thread clean only about this unit or things that are specific to this unit.

As a sidenote: I recommend Ginberbread (to S150 owners) because ICS is too resource hungry and still it's not bug free!

In Gingerbread roms, the only bug I know that is not fixable easy is the short startup bug that can be fixed with a delay relay and only some users encounter it, it's just the way the car electronics work...

READ THE WIKI! there is a lot of info there... bugs, fixes, links to files, etc... It's still work in progress but I'll add more info the fallowing days...
[Android Head-Units] mitsucats:
First of all I would like to say thank you so much for all the help and time for all the question.

I am so happy that it is possbile to become Android on s100.

I dont know if this is complete right that all unit can run 4.03 or 2.0.3

while i think Android kill our unit with alot of use memory.

I have use the Kotix for my car Mitsubishi lancer C037 and i have all install but something is wrong with the software

or MCU i have no idea but I have alot of problem with the Aroma 2.1. I am thinking to try again 2.0

1 There is noise in the background on bluetooth

2 The Mp3 dont work all the time suddenly it stop and i cannot start the song again.

3 suddenly the Wallpaper is gone and only black.

4 Navi and Mp3 dont go good together suddenly no navi sound or navi just shut down itself or Mp3 dont work.

5 In the Aroma 2.1 you need always to go into the dsp settings to get the musik loud. or install 3 parts program to lock it.

I am on the point i have no idea what to do. go back to Windows CE or stay with Android.

i have 400 km drive yetserday and lucky i had my extern tomtom with because my radio wehn compelet stupid.

and try to explain to the girlfriend that all is fine and just few tunigs then all work, always comes back you have use 400 Euro'

on something where you need anyway to have you old navi with.

Kotix,

You already know the cause does not work the controls on the steering wheel in third-part music players?

If yes, is there any solution?

Thanks
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
No solution yet.

I have my unit repaired since a very little time and i have too many things to do and to learn that i have not time to make other try outs on that problem. We all hope winca will fix it sooner or later.

Right now they are releasing firmwares that cannot be upgraded with a standard method.... don't expect anything anyway....
[Android Head-Units] glbarreto:
for purposes of brainstorming,

When had version 2.4.3, with PowerAMP installed, it worked very well. However, when another player installed, for example Rocket player, the functionality SWC stopped running.

So, I think, that the culprit of this "bug" is credited to the player himself. Despite being a technology enthusiast, still do not have much experience with android. This fact maximized because of always having used iOS.

However, I'm familiarizing myself with this platform and unable to move forward in many ways, especially in regards to customization.

I will continue to seek a solution for this "bug" (steering wheel control versus poweramp) so get some response, I will have the pleasure of sharing.

Regards,

Latest 4.03 FW (20140430)

Hey Guys!

I just tried latest firmware posted by Allen Wong on my unit (an i802) and it's a very GOOD release!

Everything works!

I tried:

- Changing color LEDs

- Rear Cam

- Steering Wheel Buttons

- External DVB-T receiver

Also few issues seems solved:

- Mp3 Player now shows correct Album name

I also noticed iGO doesn't produce ANY sound until you configure it into Navigation Settings menu!

Tomorrow I'll try on-road GPS reception and Front Camera (DVR).
