I kept the name he gave to the skin "Tune" and I helped him completing it and fixing many bugs in the skin engine, allowing now a more complete switch of the icons and graphic between the skins.
So here is the TUNE skin:
The icons in audilauncher are now 8 and they have been re-ordered in a more convenient way (maybe in a future i'll be able to make them selectable...)
The car model Logo right now is not visible, i'll try to make it selectable later on.
All icons in main launcher switch according to the skin used .
There is a new player widget too.
Also the graphic in the audio player now switch correctly.
As you can see from the last radio screens, i have changed also the stations list layout showing the frequency and the RDS name of the station and in the bookmarks buttons now you can choose to show the Station name (in 2 lines, not as scrolling text) or the frequency.
This is a new option in the KoTiX mods menu in settings and need a reboot to be applied.

05.04.2017 - Added January 2017 new type 0 mcu file

KoTiX S160 ROM UNLOCK INSTRUCTIONS
To avoid sharing of my hard work, i added a security check in the ROM.
To unlock the security check in my ROM please provide me your unit model number (M***).
To know it simply go in Settings->System information screen on your unit.
In the picture you can see it’s a M171 model.
Once you tell me your model number i'll send you a file with the unclock code that you will need to add in the folder WINCACFG on sdcard before flashing the rom.
If you try to run the rom without the unlock file or with the wrong code you will see a picture like this:
If you'd like to have more informations and to buy it, please go visit my site:
The new skin is perfect... I like Flashfire app... The procedure of firmware upgrading is much quicker... and you don't have to set your preference values again!
ReplyDeleteThanks KoTiX..
Hi KoTiX! I have a M414 model in a Seat Ibiza. Will this firmware be suitable? Thank you?
ReplyDeleteHi, yes of course. All s160 models are supported.
Delete;)
Absolutely perfect the update. What I want still is a time display in the tuner skin. Space seems enough.
ReplyDeleteIn which screen sorry?
DeleteI'm tuner skin. Where in your screenshot the frequency is displayed is with me nothing. There I thought I could display the time.
DeleteSorry but don't you have a clock on top navigation bar?
DeleteYes i have, but very small. I think the mass mainly uses the tuner. Therefore, a clock in the tuner skin would be a good decision.
DeletePara speed sound hq dd 750 no vale
ReplyDeleteTiene un link?
Deletehello kotix, from where i can download the new skin :)
ReplyDeleteYou need to buy my custom rom from my site.
DeleteIf you already did it, you can find it in my gdrive.
Hi Kotix,
ReplyDeleteI have model M274 , each time i want to check the contacts, it takes too long to load (about 10 sec ), and occasionally, when i answer a call, it takes about 8 sec. to hear the caller
is there a chance to solve those bugs with ur modification firmware ?
10 seconds to load the contact list?
DeleteIt doesn't happen here. Which date is your firmware? My rom is based on latest December firmware.
yes , from the first day I bought the device , I have Iphone mobile with around 800 contacts
Deleteevery single time acts as if I am storing it from the beginning
I am having now the latest firmware found on roadnav forum as nelow:
"File Name:M274-eng.rks160.20160926.154322.01609290.exe"
I've been using the new skin for a couple of days and I really like it. I've only noticed on tiny quirk; When using bluetooth audio (A2DP) the play/pause icon doesn't change, depending on whether it's playing or paused. Thanks for making our device look and perform better!
ReplyDeleteTnx for.reporting it. I'll look in it ;)
DeleteI have model 2 cars with M037 unit (my wife and I) , If i bought the room can i use the unlock card for both cars ?
ReplyDeleteYes, If the model is the same
DeleteI bought your wonderful rom , I just have one question
ReplyDeleteIf I disabled the Audi/wince interface, how can i clean up memory from the android interface ( something like the rocket button in the Audi/wince interface )
Hi, you should find an app from playstore that does the same or close the opened apps one by one.
DeleteHi after update usb tethering not availble ...! Any ideas ..? 'Many thanks

ReplyDeleteFlash the whole rom.
DeleteThere is no flashfire update.

Boa noite,
ReplyDeleteMinha central não inicia, essa vs160 ersão da ROM funciona para a restauração da central multimidia? Minha central é uma AIKO S160 Series do Corolla 2012/2013.
Hi, to restore your unit is better to use the original roadnav firmware.
DeleteAnyway ROM work with all models including your aikon s160 ;)
Hi Kotix, yesterday I bought your rom and installed today for M207-1 model. I like the style etc, but some of the functions I had before are not working anymore, such as dimming light of the screen when I switched the headlight ON, any suggestion? Then I thought the station name in radio was going to be displayed, but for the few station I get, they still show as frequency numbers, any idea? What does your Rom actually improve, because so far I only see a style improvement.... Please let me know how to use your ROM at best capabilities.. Thanks
ReplyDeleteI haven't changed nothing in dimming light control.
DeleteThe features list of the ROM are well explained on my site, if you need more help maybe would be better if you contact me by email. We can also talk in Italian for a better understanding. ;)
Ok, Grazie ti contatto appena ho un po di tempo per per provare un po’ il tutto e vedo cosa va e cosa non va. ����
ReplyDeleteBonjour , KoTIX bravo pour votre travail,je possède un S160 M223 sur mon CX5 MAZDA, votre peau a t'elle les logos des différents cars et le bootanimation pour mazda.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteI'm interested in you modified ROM. I have a S160 version M001-1 bought here in Brazil.
After I updated the ROM with the one in roadnav.com the TV stopped working.
Will your ROM work in my unit? Will the TV work? (Brazil uses ISDB-T and I had it working before upgrading).
Thanks
To fix your tv, you need to go in factory settings dialing ##0323 in Bluetooth screen.
DeleteThere you can set your tv type.
My ROM is fully compatible with M001.
I have seen that in your drive folder a new ROM from 16.9.2017 is. What are the changes and is there a flashfire update?

My current SWC has a bug with the volume down control sometimes goes up very loud instead of down which I believe could be corrected with your firmware, cross fingers.
My other query is with the purchase of your firmware, when will I be able to download it after I purchase it and when will the pass code be supplied please?
I love your work and hope to be using your firmware soon.

DeleteYou cannot do really much about it.
Sorry.
Thank you for looking into. I also found it only skipped a bit with newer model mobiles after Samsung S5.

DeleteHi KoTiX,
ReplyDeleteIve been using your software for 18 months now and has been great until I had some electrical problems with my care, all fixed, however the firmware seems to be a little bunky with the Bluetooth music somewhat degraded and skips a lot and when in the file system the screen resets itself making it difficult to keep an eye on what I'm selecting.
I think that a re-installation of the firmware would fix it and I'm asking if you could send me all the necessary details/links to reinstall the firmware.
My name & details:
