New S150 KoTiX 2.2 ROM based on the 30/04/2014 android 4.03 fw - UPDATED to 2.3

Time for a new ROM update today:

S150 KoTiX v2.2
EDIT: I have updated the ROM to version 2.3 to include a fix for Youtube and GooglePlayServices:
S150 KoTiX v2.3
If you don't use them, you can stay on v2.2




05.06.2014 - Fixed Google Play Services and Youtube
26.05.2014 - New bootanimation
25.05.2014 - New 160 DPI mod using Xposed and AppSetting
24.05.2014 - Removed Gapps option, they are already there!
14.05.2014 - New base fw 20140430

The rom is based on the latest 30/04/2014 winca firmware.
As you can see in the changelog winca already added the gapps so there is no need of them anymore in the aroma installer.
There aren't big changes in the rom but I used a different method to get the 160 DPI mod using Xposed framework and AppSetting, allowing to use the default launcher and allowing me in the future an easyer way to upgrade to a new fw without needing to mod each apk file.
Anyway the xposed framework will be installed in a strange way so that will be already running the app setting module right after flash but if you try to run it, it won't work. Let's see what you guys think of it and togheter will try to find a better way of running it.

The most noticable changes anyway are in the external folders "system" and "Igo", where in system you can add system apps, modify the build.prop or other folders that you need to preinstall during flash.
The iGO folder has been added by winca in this last fw and will be copied to the internal harddisk, so i guess you should copy there the maps or whatever iGO needs.

As many of you already know in the winca folder there is an "app" folder that is used to preinstall the user apps during the flash of the firmware. In this folder you can put all the apks you like, just paying attention to remove spaces from the apk name.
I prepared a small package with some usefull apps you can paste in that folder:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/luy3f1j266qi0xb/S150%20Extra%20apps_v1.0.rar

Enjoy for now, I'll wait for your comments ;)

NOTE for new users: if you want all the above mods you'll have to choose the "Custom install" option in the installer.

      El fw 2.2 y 2.3 tengon como base el fw de el 30/04 y sabe que algo esta cambiado en el reproductor de mp3 y algo en el usb.
      el 2.3 respecto al 2.2 tiene solo algunas gapps differente para haber compatibilitad con el GooglePlayServices y nada mas.

    3. Tu modelo es c305 y puede convertirlo en i305 sin mucho problemas porque esta en la lista de modelo disponible con el Fw 4.03. Tiene siempre un minimo rischio y solo tu puede aceptarlo o no.

    4. ok, tengo problemas con las tarjetas SD, tengo 3 y con ninguna puedo hacer fuse. la hacer scan no me reconoce ninguna de las 3 tarjetas. El "rischio", veo que eres italiano pero escribes muy buen español, decia que el riesgo siempre se puede volver a wince?

      Delete
    5. Si, puede volver a wince con wince-sdboot, pero el "rischio" no es en el sistema operativo, ma en el flash de la mcu. Si tiene el Fw android original de el i305 puede tomar el mcu correcto y la carpeta config que necesita.

    6. cant read mbr from drive. That´s the message on my 3 Sd Cards for SDboot..Sdflasher wont work also. Doesn´t recognize the cards, so the proccess cant be started.. I dont have also the Android files for i305. .

    8. Ha funcionado el Sdboot con otro pc. Ahora. Ya tengo Sdboot hecho. Me he descargado los FW del i305 para Android 2.3.4 y de estos he cogido el flash.bin y mcu.bin y los he copiado a tu trabajo. La carpeta Config tambien la he extraido desde i305 v2.3.4 .
      Con esto deberia funcionar ?

    9. Sdboot es para wince! Tiene que hacer el fuse con sd-flasher para poner el fw 4.03 y despues copiar los archivos en la carpeta winca y en el root de la sd.

  21. Hola KoTiX,

    He cogido tu archivo de archivo de actualización 2.3 y he sustituido en él los archivos flash.bin y mcu.bin.
    Lo he sustituido tanto en la raíz de la SD como en la carpeta winca.
    Se ha actualizado, pero ahora al encenderse suenan unos 5 bip muy sequidos. Aunque luego todo parece funcionar correcto es un poco incómodo escuchar tantos bip nada mas encender la radio.

    He hablado con eric de foro renault y me ha dicho que puede ser porque en el archivo update_S150.zip también están los archivos .bin y puede haber creado un conflicto.

    ¿Debo sustituir los archivos flash.bin y mcu.bin en el archivo comprimido update_S150.zip?
    ¿Debo sustituir también la carpeta config del archivo comprimido update_S150.zip?
    Si no debo tocar el archivo comprimido update_S150.zip, ¿cómo debo hacer para que se actualice y funcione correctamente con los archivos propios del software de mi radio?

    Muchas gracias KoTiX.

    1. PPP widget, find it on playstore

      Delete
    2. Ok, thanks, but the solution was partial.
      I installed the "PPP WIDGET", tried all settings, and that worked best was to automatically detect the modem and port defined.
      But even then, when I turn on S150, have to wait the whole boot, can not leave the "Automatic Connection" set, and only after started, I have to unplug and then plug in the modem, then the modem only connects.
      Run the procedure of plug and unplug every time, not very convenient, it is ideal that could close the dashboard of the vehicle with all internal.
      On this scenario, how are you doing?

    8. I got an evolution on this issue.
      My 3g modem works with version 2.4.
      But for this to happen, I had to note the following points:
      1) The WI-FI should be off
      2) connect the 3g modem only after the S150 has started. Then it identifies the modem and automatically connects.
      3) about the error that the modem generates, saying that the SD card is corrupted, this happens only with modems that have a slot for SD Card, if he is not satisfied, generates error if the slot has the card with the error will not occur.
      Still has a Downside, the modem only comes into operation if it is plugged after the S150 is finished with the boot, which prevents the modem to be saved, because it must always be accessible.
      The impression I have is that if we could slow the modem initialization solve the problem, another option is to put an on / off switch on the USB cable to connect the USB power only after initialization.
      If there is any hint will be welcome.
      Thanks
