RE: M072 (S160) Android Head Unit Install/Info - sheppy1 - 1:st-Aug-2016 Funny you should say that! I had a 32gb sd card in my unit which I was using fine for weeks. I took it out for some reason, put it in my pc and it said the same thing. Formatted it and now it only ever detects it as 215mb lol. I got a new one and that's now working fine in my head unit...

Have a look on Amazon (especially if you have Amazon Prime free delivery). I don't think you will go far wrong with SanDisk or Kingston. And Amazon have a great returns policy Jonathan, RE: M072 (S160) Android Head Unit Install/Info - sheppy1 - 1:st-Aug-2016 I don't think it will make a difference tbh. The one I had that went funny was a Kingston... Saying that I also had the same model Kingston one fail in my phone recently too... Better avoid those from my experience Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk RE: M072 (S160) Android Head Unit Install/Info - JonathanLondon - 1:st-Aug-2016 (1:st-Aug-2016, 16:40:40)sheppy1 Wrote: Can people tell me if they're able to read all the text on the main post?

RE: M072 (S160) Android Head Unit Install/Info - Tjholl90 - 2:nd-Aug-2016 I've fixed this issue now. I went into Bluetooth and typed ##0323 then under amp I changed it to built-in fixed.

RE: M072 (S160) Android Head Unit Install/Info - DT36 - 3:rd-Aug-2016 Has anyone used the Torque App yet on their unit? I have it working perfect on my phone, but no connection on the head unit. I have downloaded the Torque Add On to my phone, so that you can use your phone as a repeater to the head unit, but it's not fully communicating. Head unit recognises my phone as a repeater, but is not communicating with the ECU, even though Torque is running live data on my phone at the same time. On a side note, I took a work friend out with me for lunch today and he was seriously impressed with the unit compared to what he has in his 3 series BMW. Then, when we reversed into a parking space and the camera switched on, he said " I'm definitely going to look for one of these online tonight".

But I have two little problems: Disconnecting the car battery instrumentation returns to English and to redirect it in Italian I had to put the vecchiio CD400 car radio for a few seconds and all is returned to the Italian language. I also bought HappyBlue for obd but I can not connect to the radio via bluetooth. The "SETUP" menu is in English only, you can not have that too in Italian with firmware update doing the firmware update will solve these problems? That is the language that I will change dall's160 will modify also the instrument panel? If I understand correctly the Bluetooth module of this unit is not managed by the Android settings so if even via firmware update does not solve, if you buy a USB dongle for Android if I connect it to the USB sistemna Android will see after this Bluetooth? RE: M072 (S160) Android Head Unit Install/Info - sheppy1 - 7:th-Aug-2016 I have hopefully fixed the text problems now in the original post. I have also added a section near the bottom with a link to my dropbox which will always have the latest RoadNav firmware on it for you to download, copy to your SD card and flash as is.

RE: M072 (S160) Android Head Unit Install/Info - o0kidd0o - 12:th-Aug-2016 All right guys any help here will be much appreciated, So been using this unit for a good while now with no problems which is good, I've had a Sub in the boot from the CD400 and was running off the rear speakers which was working the same when i changed to this M072. I've always had the problem which is in some songs it is too much bass and there is no way to adjust it with the way i had it wired. What i want to know is does anyone know how i can wire a Sub to this unit for me to use the SUB control in the config menu as i don't see a SUB out anywhere to plug RCA into. Thanks in advance RE: M072 (S160) Android Head Unit Install/Info - bunje - 2:nd-Sep-2016 Hi guys I've been reading this thread from start to finish I'm looking at getting one of these unit's i just have a few questions. Firstly I know that the button on the dash still work with the radio but do the controls on the steering wheel work like can I make a call with the phone buttons. Also I see that they have a dab add on that can be purchased when order. Does this give full dab or does it take up a channel on the fm side. Does it need another aerial for this to work. Thanks in advance Sent from my E6553 using Tapatalk RE: M072 (S160) Android Head Unit Install/Info - sheppy1 - 2:nd-Sep-2016 The steering wheel buttons all work as they should. The phone button however just brings up the dialer rather than asking you verbally who you'd like to ring. Full day but you'd need the add on module which ain't that great due to needing a rather large and ugly extra antenna Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk RE: M072 (S160) Android Head Unit Install/Info - bunje - 2:nd-Sep-2016 Cheers for the fast reply Sheppy. I think I'll go for the dab anyway. Is there any alternative aerial for it or do I have to use the one supplied Sent from my E6553 using Tapatalk RE: M072 (S160) Android Head Unit Install/Info - sheppy1 - 2:nd-Sep-2016 (2:nd-Sep-2016, 22:44:41)bunje Wrote: Cheers for the fast reply Sheppy.

You have to use theirs as it's for a USB end on it and it's for a module along the wore which talks to the unit. You can have my dab module for 25 quid if you want? They charge 45 I believe... I don't do radio so don't use it. It's the one from icebox Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk RE: M072 (S160) Android Head Unit Install/Info - bunje - 3:rd-Sep-2016 Do i not need anything else other than the module as it says it's gotta be added at the time of checkout. Sent from my E6553 using Tapatalk RE: M072 (S160) Android Head Unit Install/Info - sheppy1 - 3:rd-Sep-2016 Nope... Not sure why it says that! I got mine like a year after getting the unit as it wasn't available at the time. You need the antenna and then an app which I can provide... It's only provided via email from ice box anyway.

Lots of good advice on here but to be sure I did ask him a few questions regarding compatibility with my car. ( 2011 2.0 Elite CDTI ) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Can you confirm that the M072 allows all the car settings and buttons to be used? Hi Stu, yes, as long as you don't have the sports package on your car. It will be fine. It will still show all the vehicle car info on our unit. Best wishes Rob ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I don't have the sports package but Rob's reply is certainly something to consider if you do have it.

I received the cable yesterday and split pulled the radio out yesterday to connect the USB cable, but to my regret it does not have the socket in the radio for this, so I had to just use the standard USB cable instead, I guess this one does not support the Astra J USB socket. Will probably be sending the cable back again.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk This may be help to some if you have installed the kotix rom and decide to go back to the standard rom. First off you'll need the igo folder, I can provide that for you if needed as you'll find once you reinstall standard rom it says the following You'll then put the sd card in with the igo folder on and open up file explorer and select the sd card. You'll then see the files, hold down on the igo file until the tick pops up beside it Then select copy Select homepage at the top and then select internal sd Then once you see this screen select paste from top right You'll then have this pop up while the folder copies across. Then go back to the navigation icon and click it and igo will now load up!

Installed it and noticed that you have the choice of 3 skins for the unit. Default one is the original one. Haven't really had much chance to play around with it as yet. Noticed there was a menu option to customize some of the buttons. Haven't seen that before. Had an issue with Spotify and some other apps not wanting to install properly. (Android error 24). Got around it by deleting the old program folders using root Explorer app. I. E. /device /data/data and then delete the program folder. Hey presto. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk |
