Carplay Skinpack is ready!!

Finally I can release a first version of my Carplay skin!!









Even if some parts still need to be done, I decided to release today the Carplay skinpack to keep the promise to have it ready for the end of february and mostly because many people is screaming on me that they cant wait more!

So, what you will get buying this new skinpack is:

- Carplay skin of course
- My Skin2 from previous pack
- All the skintool features of the previous skinpack (Nitrogen, Mydean player, etc..)
- A new Nitrogen skin to match my carplay audio player:





There are 2 versions of the Skinpack available ,one for firmware 1.7.9 and one for 1.8.9 and 1.9.9.
I don't know if I'll find the time to make a version for 1.6.9 firmware.

The Ipod section is not skinned yet , it will come in the next days/week.

As Skinmanager right now support only 4 skins, the carplay is set to be as Skin3 (you can rename it 2 or 4 if you wish, just the icons in the skinmanager will be wrong).
In the future I'll release an update of skinmanager that will support 5 skins.


I'm sorry to don't write too much here but my time is always less....
I hope you like it and enjoy my work :)

S100 Skinpack 18.02.2015

Another update is ready for download!
This time there aren't big changes in the skins, it's mostly a bug fixes release, let's see them in detail:

- Fixed Installed/Not Installed labeling for skin4 in skinmanager
- Fixed bug in MyDean player that doesn't show the album and artist tags (Tnx to AlexOz....)
- Fixed MyDean player installation that was not replacing correctly Nitrogen, the original player or the patched original player. Now the switch between them is working great!
- Fixed a bug in the Patched original player (Tnx again to Alex)
- Fixed Bluetooth music info tags in all skins
- Added better translation for German and Swedish. (Tnx Jörg M. and Gugge).(To use Swedish I still need to implement a function for non conventional languages, so for now please contact me by email for instructions)
- Added German version of Nitrogen skin for Skin4 (Tnx Manuel H.)
-Surely other things...






A little note about the different versions of the skinpacks:
1. The very old one for old firmwares up to 1.5.9 aren't updated at all and they aren't guarantee that they will work on your unit
2. The skinpack for firmware 1.6.9 have the skinmanager upto date but the skins may contain old graphics
3. Firmwares 1.8.9 and 1.9.9 have a bug in the audio player that don't show the artist/album id3 tags, so I recommend if you can to use the 1.7.9 firmware instead

S100 - Skinpack update available (04.02.2015)

The days before releasing a new Skinpack are always very busy, I'm always scared of forgetting  something or missing some bugsand this makes me really nervous.

I beleive that now is time to release the new update of my S100 Skinpack that contain the new features I wrote about in my previous post and some bugs fixed that have been reported me by some users.

The changelog for this 04/02/2015 release is:


  • New Skinmanager Installed\Not Installed skins visualization
  • New audio player from Mydean (it have a problem with album and artist tags that i'm trying to solve, maybe a fix will be out in the next days)
  • Skinmanager version check: it will autoupdate if needed on startup
  • Extras are now installed by default on all skins
  • Fixed French Language fonts bug
  • 2 new extra apps:  Hobdrive and SysInfo
  • Ipod back button fixed in skin4
  • English patched string fixed
  • Improved compatibility of Skin4 and Skin2 with more unit models
  • Maybe more...

NOTE: All the skipack versions from for firmwares from 1.6.9 contain the same Skinmanager\Skintool functions and features but the packs for the newest firmwares (1.8.9-1.9.9) are the ones that surely contain all the new skin mods and fixes.
This doesn't mean that the pack for fw 1.7.9 is not good but just that maybe i missed something in the older fw versions because i cannot test all the skins for all the firmwares each time i make an update and in the same time i cannot ensure compatibility with all models for the older firmwares.
So to be sure that everything work fine, please update your firmware if you can.
