Mapping CAN events

Hi guys,

I have a problem with my unit. It was a S100 unit and it was flashed with Android img from Kotix.

Since it is a new model it is not supported on all features, and I am attempting to fix all of them. My unit is C150 for Focus 2012.

Now I have 2 problems left(sorry if it was already discussed, I tried to search and to read all the post, but I am out of time and ideas - please just point if there is something):

- the main problem now is the CanBus decoder. I have selected "cubic"(I don't remember the exact name and I don't have access at the moment). Everything it is working almost fine. SWC they are fine, I can't configure them from the menu, but the mapping it is ok, except the phone answer and hang-up. Clima is displayed on the screen but the temp values are 1.5 Celsius higher then the controls display. And what is bothering me most are the open doors. They are "mapped wrong", for example driver door is showing that rear doors are open.

So the question is, can I remap all this events according to the codes I receive?

- second problem, I am listening to music, I mute the unit, when the song is over and I get to the next song, the sound is un-muted but the software is muted. And I have to un-mute and mute again.

Thank you for your time.

Hi Kotix,

Can you add an option to only flash MCU and FLASH in the Aroma menu ?

It can be very useful to find the right one, on an unit.

I'm looking forward to wait for the 2.7 rom and test it.

You make a great job ;)
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
It's not possible on newer firmwares because the update procedure erase all the partition before flashing, so you'll loose your data anyway. :(
[Android Head-Units] albertoo199:
Can i continue flashing with this problem?
[Android Head-Units] 1mdl:
I have the same problem with right dvd card reader.

You can use the GPS slot without any problem:good:
[Android Head-Units] albertoo199:
Thank you friend. With fused card?
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
On newer firmwares the fused cards are almost blocked, but to update is enought a normal sd with "winca" folder containing the Fw.
[Android Head-Units] NFHimself:
Dash Home

I created an app for the s100/s150 called Dash Home, it's on the play store if anyone is interested. It's a front end for the android home screen, gives you a wince kind of interface but on Android.

Updated version 1.0.1.200

Update: Added 3D stuff.

See this xda thread to avoid hijacking this one.

Cheers!
[Android Head-Units] albertoo199:
I cant find it
[Android Head-Units] NFHimself:
Probably just lagged or too far down the list, you can search for com.bm.dashhome.

S150 4.03 KoTiX v2.7

Ok then, here is the v 2.7 rom:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/nx0ywzaiy7pqy36/S150 4.03 KoTiX_v2.7.rar?dl=0

It's based on the 09/11 firmware so after you flash it you will not find the "System Upgrade" function in settings, the fused cards will not work as they should but you can still upgrade your unit simply booting the unit from the gps slot using a normal sd card with the firmware ("winca" folder) in it, just like in the wince units.

Also we lost the possibility to keep our data because booting from gps slot it will erase all the partitions, so i removed from the aroma installer that option.

So no good news, no improvements, the rest of my mods are still there but this time is all i have to offer.

I'm seeing a lot of people switching back to wince and i'm seriously thinking of doing it too for a while.

A russian guy have improved my skin manager and i'm curious to see his mods:

Here is the thread:

[Android Head-Units] gatonico:
Thank you, downloading for test
[Android Head-Units] albertoo199:
Hello kotix thanks for your work. Im trying to flash the rom but i cant, as i told you i have a problem with the dvd card reader and it doesnt work only the gps slot but i put the card inside and it doesnt start flashing.
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
If you have older Fw, you need the fused SD to flash from GPS slot.
[Android Head-Units] amg80:
Thanks a lot kotix

I also think i will go back to s100 though

Applications errors

Hi.

I am still doing test in 2.3. As you know sometimes, specially if you don't wait until unit is totally switched on when you switch it off. Then some errors arise saying some applications cant work. How do you solve the problem? I usually restore the backup of those applications using titanium backup. Is there any other option to solve the problem?? Erasing temporary data etc???
[Android Head-Units] Thade_trash:
Hi guys, any advice on this please? I have no hair left :crying:

Convert Original Android S150 to S100 WinCE - Possible?

Hi all,

The startup time of my S150 is irritatingly long, so I was wondering if it is possible to convert a "native android" S150 (I071) to a S100 WinCE device? I have flashed this device to 4.03 and then back to 2.3 a few times and it is also running the latest MCU.

I just want to know if it is possible, and if so, which firmware can I use to do that. Also, assuming it is possible, does it use the ADSet.xml file as well to config the radio correctly?

Your assistance in this regard would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,

RickJord
[Android Head-Units] Franvior:
KoTiX2, finally what do you think is causing the problem with the no-sound on unit start?

Could it be the MCU version?

I think it is SW problem. If it would be a bad solder then sound would be failing even if they unit has sound on the start.

And it is not the case as once you have after the restart, sound is there until you switch it off.
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
For people who don't have sound at all from android, even after reboot/reset or even in wince (i mean flash wince on android unit), it's surely a hardware failure that need reflowing. Np27np27 have proven it one more time.

For other cases like mine that just sometimes there is no audio from android but radio, BT, DVD etc.. are fine and after a reboot everything come back to normal, it's a software problem.

Right now i'm running an old P002 mcu on the newest fw 9/11 (my 2.7 rom) the problem is almost gone but it's still there, it's happened one time in a week.

This problem never happened in fw prior June 06 and this make think that not only the MCU but also something in android (kernel, framework or whatever) can cause the problem.

I don't know what else to say about this... maybe we need to collect infos about every unit where the problem is present:

- is it a native android unit?

- was originally android 2.3 or 4.03?

- is a unit with DSP?

- anything else that could be usefull.
[Android Head-Units] Franvior:
Yes, i am referring to no sound sometimes.

Let's try to solve it as for me it is the most anoying failure....

I think it is a good idea to compile this info from everyone. Same if some of you don't have this problem please provide us the info:

My answers:

- I have the problem of no sound in some starts.

- is it a native android unit? YES

- was originally android 2.3 or 4.03? originally 2.3 and now back to 2.3.

- is a unit with DSP? I think so, where i can check?

- anything else that could be usefull. MCU = P002 MODEL = i018 (RAV4)
[Android Head-Units] mitsucats:
Hello

I have one for my auto and I will look later what mcu but I have no problem with the sound at all. I had buy one whit wince but upgrade to android 4.03 with kotix version 2.4 with original mcu from my original android version.

I have also but another display board from 100 to 150 so I could try android 2.3
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
So you have the problem even with original native 2.3 fw?

When the problem happen can you run "alogcat" to check if you have the same errors as i have on 4.03 fw?
[Android Head-Units] Franvior:
Yeah even in android native... I run logcat as you proposed and I have the extracted file in SD but I couldn't check in the PC yet. I will try end of this week as I am not at home. Nevertheless if I remember correctly error was different or even no errors shown. :(

Mitsucats. Good to know you don't have the error. Let us know your mcu please
[Android Head-Units] Franvior:
I have convinced my wife to do this on my behalf!! :laugh: and i have the logcat files. Please find them uploaded. Problem is i have not the same sound error you had KoTiX2
[Android Head-Units] mitsucats:
Hello

here comes my settings and what softwrae i have.

But as i said i have buy a new diplays board so i could use the android 2.3 but i go back to the android 4.03 again.

[Android Head-Units] Franvior:
Thanks mitsucats!

So you have MCU M004. Any other people without this sound problem with same or different MCUs??

Kotix2 i think you said you were trying this MCU before right? I have the P004 for i018 provided by Allen but i haven't tried yet. I would like to try it once i am back.
[Android Head-Units] costinradu:
i trying to make wince sdbot but i always get: can.t read MBR sector from drive...I folowed the instructions as usual, i used sdformatter several times...same results...
[Android Head-Units] hititup:
[MENTION=2236362]mitsucats[/MENTION] where did u bought your display board from? I need 1 for my unit.

Or can anyone say ware I can get a display board from?
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Be sure you have reformatted the SD card with sdflasher first, to remove the old partition.

Then you can format with sdformatter or with windows format but be sure it's fat32 and it need to be labeled "SDBOOT".

NEWS:

I have just flashed a wince fw vers 1.6.9.18 I found on the russian forum and let me say it looks great!

The radio station list show the RDS name beside the frequency and Nitrogen is preloaded as default player.

I'll keep it up for while to test the new skinmanager and MYdean skins. ;)
[Android Head-Units] hititup:
Thanks do u have they email address?
[Android Head-Units] costinradu:
great news kotix!

if all work good we wait for download links...:D

maybe android 4.03 is to much for this hardware.wince is booting so fast and all work great.not a lot of apps but i just need a unit that work stable and fast.looking forward for your news...
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Here is the fw i found on 4pna:

--LINK REMOVED--

OS: S100-UNI.A20140721-A2.2

APP: S100-V1.6.9.18

MCU: F00N S00E

New skinpack:

http://www.file-upload.net/download-9608145/SkinPack-for-S100.rar.html

Touch calibration and BT flash are disabled.

Nitrogen will be installed as default player.

You need to run SetupdateXml_EN2.exe before flashing but the language could result wrong even if set correctly, so you'll have to change it manually from unit settings after first boot.

For last..... once again my unit seem to be BROKEN :(

I did nothing wrong, it was ok before i got back on my car from work. After work i turned it on and i have only a white screen!

I'll open it and let you know....

EDIT: my unit is fixed now, was a really bad firmware!
[Android Head-Units] mitsucats:
Hello

Had my navi sygic uwork on wince had i also change to it
[Android Head-Units] costinradu:
this is very bad news.i'm so sorry.do you think is something related to re-conversion from s150 to s100?
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
I don't think is related to it but who can tell....

The unit was running fine after flash, i played with nitrogen, the radio etc.. I really don't know what to think... Just that i'm not lucky with this unit. :(
[Android Head-Units] 1mdl:
I had the same problem.

Have you run the program as administrator??

I had to do it on an other win7 pc as administrator and everything was OK.:good:
[Android Head-Units] Forre11:
Hello Kotix

I think you can recover with gingerbread os ICS.

put either sdcard in and just keep "SRC" pushed while resetting as long as you hear "beep"

then release SRC button, it start to load from sdcardandyou can see android logo and so on..

after you remove sdcard you might get white screen, just reset again and android start normally.

i did use gingerbread first then i upgrare to ICS with your rom

Cheers
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Here is the problem:

It's the flat cable of lcd screen (at least i hope it's just that ).
[Android Head-Units] Forre11:
I did download that wince firmware in your dropbox , i installed it and got stucked with white screen

It did work for me, maybe it work in your headunit too.:good:

Cheers
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Did you really flashed this firmware C028New :

--LINK REMOVED--

and you got the same problem after a reboot?? or you just referring to another wince fw?

The wince firmware worked for me, i played with it for a while.
[Android Head-Units] Forre11:
Jep! , i played for a hmm.. about 15 minutes and after i changed something from setup menu and shutting down headunit and repowering it , i got white screen.

then i started to find a way to go back to android, i had android sdcards with me and i remember that combination to force

system read sdcard.

like i said hopefully it do work with you also.

Cheers
[Android Head-Units] junior2001:
I had same problem with same wince firmware. After 15 minutes it shows white screen. I tried the vanilla 1.6.19 firmware too and i had no problem with it, so i think that there is something wrong with this version made to integrate nitrogen player with it
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Ok thank you guys! You gave me some hope :)
[Android Head-Units] junior2001:
Nitrogen Player

i can confirm that..i flashed with android firmware and then again with wince firmware but with original 1.6.19 and until now it seems all ok. i only have a problem: using nitrogen player instead of stock one, when i press next song hardware key it jumps 2 or 3 songs forward not next song. Do u have same problem?
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Can you post the link of the original 1.6.19 Fw, please?

Also i need to know if you have white screen during bootlogo too and during android flash.

Tnx. ;)
[Android Head-Units] junior2001:
1.6.19 firmware and nitrogen

of course:

this is 1.6.19 original firmware

https://www.sendspace.com/file/1n6yxc

and this is last nitrogen version with intaller to replace stock player. you can copy on gps sd and start with navi

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/11867623/NitrogenS100.zip

i have white screen until android starts to update mcu and beeps , after that screen back normal.
[Android Head-Units] Franvior:
A couple of questions:

Is it more stable than Android versions?

Could you upload screenshots?

Does the Nitrogen show the song cover? i mean song not album cover.

I saw Sygic can be installed in Wince. can it be installed there?

Thanks!!
[Android Head-Units] albertoo199:
Hello kotix i have a problem with my radio. i were at 2.7 from android and i have tried going back to wince following your doc doing a sdboot but when i put the sd card into the radio a turns on the screen now always is black only if i push the reset i can see the audi logo but nothing more. what happens?

---------- Post added at 06:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:03 PM ----------

Finally i have solved it. i think it was because of the last firmware and the problem of sdboot.
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
My unit is fixed! Tnx to both of you guys for the infos :)

I'm going to try the original wince fw now :)

Edit: Junior2001 is right, original fw is ok :) Now i just need an english Nitrogen skin :)

Please help me to how to back to wince after of install the 9/11 android firmware in a s100, because the method sdboot wince not working with this firmware

---------- Post added at 01:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:27 AM ----------

What combination to force read sdcard? that mine is only blank screen
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Edit the file update.xml and set to false the touch calibration. The flash procedure should run even if you don't see nothing, so let it run at least for 15-20 minutes.

After that remove the SD card and the unit will reboot in wince.

If you wish to see what is going on during flash you'll have to hold the reset button for the entire flash bit i don't recommend it.
[Android Head-Units] junior2001:
i found another way: if u have rear camera on your car you can engage reverse gear after put sd in slot. The display will show u rear camera, then you can remore reverse and display will show u flashing procedure again . It s simple
[Android Head-Units] gatonico:
Hi how to you solved the white/blank screen in.bootlogo, because after flash 2.7 kotix and wanting revert to wince the screen is white/blank in thr update process and in bootlogo start, working fine only problem is in bootlogo.
[Android Head-Units] albertoo199:
What i did is with a sdboot with wince into the gps slot and restaring it. To see the process i put tge rear and quit again and then i can see it.
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Another way to go back to wince from 2.7 is to flash an older android fw first, like 0606 or my 2.6 rom using a "not-fused" sdcard.

From this older fw you can flash wince normally.
[Android Head-Units] gatonico:
Thank you

Yes is the correct way to back from 9/11 or kotix 2.7 firmware, i had a problem with mcu because i put directly the wince sdboot and as not see nothing in the screen i power off completely the car and the mcu was corrupted. The only way to fix this mistake was reflashing the 9/11 firmware and revert to kotix 2.6 and after flash wince normally

Thanks for all Kotix and Alberto

Thank you for the skin, but another question, how to installa nitrogen to s100 wince because ia already intent to install with navi path and show a error message that dissapear instantly and not work

Thank you and excuse me
[Android Head-Units] Franvior:
Did you any different than configuring the APN in the S150? Did you configure maybe the APN internally in the 3G stick?

I can see the network symbol when connecting the stick but it doesn't change to blue. In 2.3 that was working just adding the APN in settings menu.

Thanks!
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
Are you running kotix Rom wich have a much bigger apn settings file?
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Just run from navi path the InstallNitrogen.exe and it will replace the default player with nitrogen.
[Android Head-Units] DenisMS79:
Hello. Unfortunately I already did everything (settings engineering, flashing). I could not reflash MCU so that it now sends the wrong signals to the CAN BUS? How to check? WIN earlier in the info about the system has been written that CAN BUS connected sdes writes.
[Android Head-Units] stief:
I'm sorry I don't understand what you meen by the last part of your message.

What exactly is the problem? I thought you just didn't have sound. In that case I don't think it has anything todo with canbus. Why can't you reflash the MCU?
[Android Head-Units] DenisMS79:
I have not working sound and button illumination. I think that is not working CAN BUS. How do you test this on Android?

I asked, as a result of reflashing S100 on Android, I could break CAN BUS? Or МCU not working properly? How to check?
[Android Head-Units] manuellatif:
hey guys,

nice to see that the s150 unit is beeing discussed here.

I have received my unit recently and all is fine sofar.

My only issue is that i have installed tomtom navigation and all works fine.

I only have the issue that tomtom stops my music when it wants to say something but other than the muted music nothing happens.

SO i dont get any audio from tom tom .

Only the audio bug that the music stops when the navigation wants to say something (even though it says nothing).

Does anyone have the same issue?

Other software like Navigator works without any issues.

(except for the permanently stopped music bug)

PS:

Is there a way to see the current firmware and where do i find newer firmwares?
[Android Head-Units] kaween:
Yep. Everybody who tries to use Tomtom on the S150 has that issue.

A couple of other Nav software packages have similar problems, depending on their version or build number. This issue has been discussed prior to the split-off thread for the S150 (look at "2din Android Ouku" for this issue and possible solutions which, in all honesty, simply is to look for a piece of software that you like and works. Several versions of Sygic, Navigon and Primo work correctly with the S150.

As for new versions of S150 Firmware .... there have been a couple of posts (most of them also on the 2din anroid ouku thread) of people receiving newer versions than they originally had, but the difference between is not officially documented and certainly not always clear, sometimes even their origin isn't, so I'd advise some level of caution in this regard).
[Android Head-Units] manuellatif:
thanks for your answer.

Well i would use navigon but i have no wireless around my car and no dataplan big enough to load the maps.

Is there a way to download the maps via pc and put them on my sd?

are there any other useful programs out there for this unit ?

anyone tried torque yet?

thanks in advance and thumbs up for your good research and efforts concerning this device.
[Android Head-Units] stief:
If you have navigon on your phone or tablet. You can copy the folder with the maps to the sd for your unit.
[Android Head-Units] niton:
Has anybody seen, that s150 Andoird 4 selling starts?

Look at this

So, waiting for new firmwares! Please, ask your sellers for firmware update!
