Build Quality

I agree with others, the build quality on these S100/150 is very poor.

On mine (HM-034G) the music SD card slot (not the GPs one) has stopped working.

For a while it would play music for about 5 minutes then beep, music stopped, and playlist went blank.

Leaving it until the morning it would repeat the above.

Guessing yet AGAIN it is a heat related issue, but now it has stopped working altogether.

My vendor went bust so I contacted the manufacturer directly, even though under warranty they want me to pay for the part!

Even then they are only willing to send me a new SD card slot, whereas I think it is the board.

Was thinking of replacing whole unit with the Android version, but not after reading the issues with them.

help needed

Hi

I just upgraded my S100 to Android 4.3 (thanks to KoTiX) just need a bit of help if anyone can.

How do I set up a wifi connection, do I just plug it in to the USB slot, will it find a signal, do I have to buy air time to connect ? How do I set up my satnav as I don't have any maps. If I download from Playstore will the maps come with an operating system ? Can I get maps from anywhere else with an operating system, I previously had IGO Primo but never could get the sound to work.

Any help would be great

Thanks

Colin
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
For wifi you need a usb adapter with a rt5370 chip. Look at the wiki for more information. For navigation you need to buy a app on the playstore. I use copilot. Someone used sygic. There are trial versions to test before buy.
[Android Head-Units] Franvior:
That would be very cool... I hate every time I have to configure AGAIN my unit...
[Android Head-Units] Franvior:
Is this only np27np27 and me?

Any idea on how to solve this issue?

Thanks!

no more sound help

You are not alone.

I turn on television, mp3 player, télévision, mp3 player again and it run.

So it must be an other problem than hardware.

I hope kotixx and other stars of android will find the solution :good::good::good:
[Android Head-Units] Psycho Dave:
Yes it freezes, nothing happens when I adjust the volume or any other button. The power button does not work either.
[Android Head-Units] [XRSIST]:
If you haven't already, search S150 on the clubtouareg forum. In short, I have done this, upgraded to firmware ending 0606 and then onto 0702.

0702 had a system resource issue so I went back to 0606. Many things don't function normally llike in 2.3.4 which are documented throughout this thread so I recently went back to 2.3.4.

Waze tweak

Hi all,

I finally found how to work Waze 3.8 on my I802 with the 2.5 rom from Kotix.

Here is the tutorial I followed : 3w.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=101020&p=840254&hilit=crash+startup

Change 3w to www

Have fun !
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Tnx god! Finally somebody find the solution to the waze issue.

I flashed my unit dozen of times serching for a fix and i just couldn't see it.

Tnx man, you really save me many headhaces. ;)

Hello,

I upgraded my i062 with Kotix rom same result , ream camera and DVR did work for a while and shadowed view and stripes.

I trying to figured out why DVR and rearcam dont work in their own apps, because in videorecoreder rear camera do work every time, but it's quite annoying to start videorecorderapp with camera input before hit reverse gear to see rear camera view in the Headunit screen.

Do someone know where can I check virtual machine configuration for these app's, maybe checking environments agaist videorecorder virtual machine config could resolve problem?

Thanks in advance!
[Android Head-Units] bypo:
Kotix,

I think you should include this fix in your next Rom version (Waze Fix)

build.prop

ro.kernel.android.checkjni=0

ro.kernel.checkjni=0

persist.sys.strictmode.visual=0

persist.sys.strictmode.disable=1

Many thanks for your efforts ;)

Am I the only one affected by 3G disconnections ?

My 3G stick is working properly but if it looses connections, it won't reconnected anymore.

I have to manually disconnect and reconnect the usb modem to catch the signal once again.

Anyone ? Maybe PPP Widget ?

Thanks
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
I removed this on 2.5:

ro.kernel.android.checkjni=0

Because i didn't know what was there for...

Will be enought to re add that one i think.
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
Hey there.

Since i last flashed kotix 2.5 (i had the same before, but with dpi mod and volume lock installed) the radio sound stops if there is sound ouput from android (like navigation). I have to switch back to the radio app to get the radio sound again.

I think someone else had that problem before. Curious thing only is that i hasnt that problem before. Maybe its related to the volume lock application?

[MENTION=2734955]KoTiX2[/MENTION]: what was your intention by adding the volume lock application?
[Android Head-Units] mitsucats:
That is the volume lock control. I have remove it because it make that problem
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
I have to verify, but i think it is not installed
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
The app "stem volume" is there because some people had problems with volume levels of singles applications, if you don't need it just uninstall it or remove it from winca/app folder before flashing.

I'm still on vacation but on the russian forum is available a new Fw dated 08/01, in case anybody wanna give it a try.

Bye ;)

no more sound help

Nobody have a idea or a begin of solution?? :good:
[Android Head-Units] np27np27:
I told you already, the problem is hardware. Try reflowing the main processor chip, it may work.

For a software solution I would like to alter the wincaservices apk to play the android sound through the radio or DVD audio channel. However I have no experience in java or smali and without the source file it would prove difficult.

Anyone able to help with the software solution??
[Android Head-Units] DJorgio:
I had the no sound issue for the first time the other day and to get it back i had to uninstall my iGo which (for the first time) i had installed to the internal memory.

Just throwing it out there, of course it might be a glimpse of things to come but its working fine at the moment.
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
Do you mean that problem was solved after removing volume lock control? Sounds crazy :) It was working for me if vlc was installed, now it is not there (and it was not installed since flash) and i have that problem.
[Android Head-Units] Candanga:
Hi there,

Just got my Winca S150 Android 4.0.3 for my Chevy TRAX. This model is brand new, as the only one being advertised ATM is the 309 with WinCE. After the installation I noted some bugs, which I contacted the manufacturer and I don't know if they will address them, maybe someone might have an idea what to do.

I this video you can see most of them.. http://youtu.be/kmh2hvOQYCM

As shown, the turn signal sound is not working nor any related to the car's warnings(i.e. seatbelt off, parking brake on while moving, lights On with IGN OFF, Door open, etc.) I don't know if this is related to the music module or the CANBUS module (two semi-transparent boxes), or to the same app communicating with these modules.

The Climate control functions are not working either, I can't get it to show the fan speed and other info, and finally it gets stuck and reboots.

There's also a Volume mixer app, which can boost the sound of the Music player, radio, etc.but every time I restart the car, the setting wont take effect until I enter the app. Will making a nandroid image of this will help figuring out stuff (maybe for the current custom ROM, as this Head Unit runs officially on both CE and Droid)?

And as a side note, I had problems with the reception of the Radio receiver, and just desoldered the circuit that is built into the antenna connector. I attached a picture... Also I'm attaching a pic of an unknown connector (maybe has something to do with the sound)

Thanks!
[Android Head-Units] schraub:
Hi Guys,

has anyone solved the problem with the swc use on 3rd party music apps? In my case the sound will be muted when i press the next button. But this is only happening on can bus mode "Bublic".

And is it possible to kill the radio app, when i start another music player?

The stock music player is not such as bad but i cannot use my music folders with it. So its not useable with 10000 music files in one list :crying:

thanks :)
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
First: Welcome schraub :)

Second: My Sound issues are getting worse. If an android app plays a sound the current sound source ist stopped, but i cant hear anything and the source is not switched back... I tried to find something at catlog and the winca service source, but there is nothing obvious. At least no error.

I tried to reset the mcu using the reset button without success... :(

Any other suggestions to make it work again?

[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
I dont think its a hw problem. Everythings worked before last flash and the fact that the sound is not returning to the last source.... I would prefer to solve the problem an get a real solution instead of just flashing over and over again.

Btw: If it would be a h/w problem i would just return the unit to the dealer instead of soldering :)

When i installed VLC beta, there was no sound when i paled .ts tv recordisng from sdcard, same result with MXplayer.

I removed VLC and then i push reset+src until i heard beep, then S150 start only android(not winca,), then i just push reset again to reboot system( it wont shutdown another way). after thata i had sound in MXplayer when i wacth .ts recordings from sdcard.

Hopefully it help you also.
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
I give it a try. Just to be clear. Do you mean the bootloader with "Android not winca"? But first i have to found out what button src is on my 246.
[Android Head-Units] adrianmihai83:
Last week started to have sound problems from apps channel so this was the last drop I could bear so went back to WinCE. No more sound settings to be applied every startup, fast boot, video player does not forget where it stopped... For me android is a "no go", simply does not offer that plus I could use in in-car entertainment.

And now that I can use Kotix skin for WinCE for fw greater than 1.18.7 is a big plus.

I will follow this topic and hopefully there will be a refined version of android that will make me consider the switch again.
[Android Head-Units] Forre11:
I062 it's under mute, but on your model i don't know

On my model i can turn with SRC S150 on /and off ( when pushed longer )with it.

when i push reset+src and wait beeb, after system is up I can play with android software (start stop apps,but hw is not running just software, mcu dont run), on my model headunit stays on even i take keys off.

pushing reset again all buttons do work normally, i only loose radio stations from memory,

all another setting remains.

Thanks. I tried it. Unfortunatelly it does not helped. But many thanks for your suggestion!

Tomorrow i try a flash.

[Android Head-Units] schraub:
hi again,

i have another problem. I m trying to use google navigation with 3G network. So google maps works as it should but in google navigation the map is very blurry. Its not because of a bad 3g connection or something like that. It also happend on wifi. Besides the settings menu on navigation disapears if i m trying to press a button and thats why i cannot disable TTS :(

Does someone have an ideato solve it?

Thanks

[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
No audio from audio player (or android at all)

Hi guys.

My android audio is working again. I coulnt verify which step really helped, but these are the things ive done.

Install Volume Lock Control without setting up something

Start the radio without MCU (thanks Forre11)

Shut-down your unit using the SRC button (on some units it has a little home icon, on some a written SRC at the button)

No press the little reset button and SRC together, press both for a few seconds.

Now release the reset button but don't release SRC -> your unit should do a loud beep, if yes release SRC too

Your unit is booting like normal, but the MCU isn't powered up. You can verify this by launching the radio App. It will start but you dont hear anything and the radio band or buttons dont work. (If your radio works something went wrong, do the steps again)

Now press the reset button shortly (because normal shutdown with buttons or car ignition dont work without the mcu)

Your unit reboots -> Check your audio sound

Make your radio completely powerless. I pulled out the fuse of the radio for some seconds. But I suggest to leave it pulled out over night...

As said before, I could not found the step that solved the problem exactly. Even after the 3th step I could not hear music from the audio player. But at morning, everything worked again.

You will only loose your saved radio stations and maybe your dsp settings with the steps from above. Your apps and app settings are not altered.

Firmware updates I802

Hi,

Yesterday I have update my unit S150 I001 (for Nissan) with the

Build number: GRJ22.V4.00.00-20131121

MCU: P002

FLASH: S00C

Is all ok, same Android 2.3.4 etc..

this morning I have checked _cardct.com/firmware-updates_ and I see this:

"I802	RoadNav	Android Double Din	Download	12/11/13"

I don't have access to download, has anyone tried to install this update?

Bye
[Android Head-Units] royalhawk2002:
Tested Poweramp (free version) on my S150. The audio quality is better than the stock player. It see all my mp3 in the Music folder of sdcard. When I start Poweramp, if the radio is active, it will be closed and viceversa. Tested also the GPS directions from IGO togheter with Poweramp. It work ok, the music is paused during the voice directions and then started again. Steering wheel controls works! The only thing that doesn't work: If the unit is switched off with Poweramp active, when is back On a manual startup of poweramp is needed.

[MENTION=1224676]royalhawk[/MENTION] which Software do you use? Android 2.3 oder 4.0?

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 7 mit Tapatalk
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
He is using 2.3, so the problem with the sound priority is coming from 4.03 fw.
[MENTION=727743]gassi[/MENTION] were you able to flash back 2.3.4 fw on your s150?
[Android Head-Units] Gassi2106:
I will try it today to flash back to 2.3

[Android Head-Units] royalhawk2002:
I use 2.3.4 , last version, 23.11.
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
I've found what was causing the problem: the name of the apk file must be without spaces, you can add all the the apps you like and they will be preinstalled during the firmware flash.
[Android Head-Units] hiro-bo:
KoTiX2 and then think that it is possible to install android on s100 properly or still not 100%
[Android Head-Units] royalhawk2002:
Interesting, this means that i.e. I would like to substitute the default mp3 player with PowerAmp, or the Radio with SpiritFM, or I want to install from default some app, like ES File explorer or IGO, just putting it in the right folder and are installed ? Is working also with 2.3.4 ?
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
The second one... it will not replace any app, it will just install all the apps you have in the app folder during the flash of the 4.03 fw only for now. We need to modify the updater script to have it to work on 2.3.4.
[Android Head-Units] AntoxaS:
8 pins chip resistor and two 2 capacitors resolder PCB S100, and all android 2.3 loaded without problems began (android 2.3 sews without chip). What chip would now understand by description can not understand what it is that would find her manual (marked on it 2JAA).

I think a good solution would be something like this:

inside our units and connected it to one of the AUX inputs.But mini-pc output is HDMI and how to connect with touch screen?

The stick is very powerfull for car units and cheap.It support Miracast,XBMC.There are a lot of custom roms around.Very easy to upgrade.have one on my TV and is workin great.
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Uhm... what about this... XBMC ...

...we don't need an external device ;)
[Android Head-Units] costinradu:
Indeed, but remember the Quad Core Cpu 2 gb DDR.Dual OS(WinCE+Android UPGRADABLE, root and custom ROM).....and Miracast (only 4.2)

By the way, you share with us your progress or you keep it just for you? :P
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Well there isn't really any progress, I'm just testing apps and launchers on 4.03 fw to understand what is working and what not.

Dimadina has released a light mod of 4.03 fw were he added the Play Store and some permissions but the main problems are still there:

- no root

- no RDS

- GPS work but the speed is wrong

- no files in original video player

- strange behaviour with sound priority of the applications

In the while i know that XBMC work, MxPlayer work, Sygic work, TomTom don't work because it's not made for external GPS, Nova Launcher work but as default launcher the radio don't work anymore (and maybe this will be the same for every launcher).

So far I'm pretty happy with Android, a lot of more then WinCE, my unit don't have canbus but:

- the bluetooth section is better because it sync just when you want and not all the time you need to see the missed/recent calls.

- customization and possibility to have the players you prefer

- better Wifi speed

- Play Store

etc..

I would not go back ;)
[Android Head-Units] TheLexus:
Sorry, changed the name. Its basically the same as KotiX provided. But i dont think it was the real issue. I try to uninstall it today, if that makes the sound problem again I report it :)

Absolutely nothing! I just left the car in the garage for 4/5 days as i'm on vacation.

No more sound

Hello. I 'm looking for solutions but don't know enough about android.

I have founded this (attachement).

Do you thing it can help? :good:
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
I really don't think it's a software problem because if you switch back to wince the sound should come back alive but it doesn't.

In my case, i had no sound for 2 weeks and now it's back without changing absolutely nothing on the sw side, so i agree with np27np27 about the overheating and bad soldering of the cpu chip.

You should open your unit, connect a couple of speakers while opened, and try to push on the cpu to check if the sound come back on, if it does you'l need reflowing or buy a new cpu board that cost around 100 usd.

If you will go for buying a new board i suggest you to wait until the new s180 platform come out.... maybe you can buy that one instead :P

This is all i can suggest you at the moment, if the problem will happen to me again i'll try by myself doing what i just told you.

Cheers for now ;)
[Android Head-Units] 1mdl:
no more sound.

I understand.

But i always have sound with ; radio, Cd,D- TV and BT - A2DP.

It is only with mp3 or film reader yhat the sound is off 'sd card, usb or HDD)

Each time i reinstall the unit (factory reset), all the sound come back. I shut down the unit and the problem is there again. Sometimes I come back...but...

It is why i think it can be something else that a hardware problem.

Of course it is only a deduction. :good:
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
If you do a factory reset the mp3 sound is there? and when it does disappear then? after a reboot?

Radio, cd, tv, bt are on a separated audio circuit so why you can listen to them.

If your unit was a wince S100 or an android 2.34 s150, why don't you go back to it to check if everything work there?
