S160 ROM and Skins

Custom ROMs and Skins for the S160 android KK 4.4 Platform based Head units

KoTiX Skin
Tune Skin
kitkat adventure on rk3188

 

The S160 platform is builded around the rk3188 chipset and it runs android kitkat 4.4.

The original firmware, even if it come with gapps preloaded, unfortunately has some flaws that leave this unit incomplete  and with a really bad look with its ugly s100 interface.

My work on this unit consist of adding some features like root access, increment the user memory up to 8Gb but also creating a better looking and a more friendly user inteface.

 

4 skins switchable in 1 second!

 

One of the best features of the s160 is the possibility to change the skin (the interface graphical theme).

In my custom rom you can choose between 4 skins and switch between them in just a couple of seconds throught the Carsettings app.

These skins are selectable from the Carsettings apps and are named like this:

Skin 0: Navisson

Skin1: Original

Skin2: KoTiX

Skin3: Tune

Pre-Rooted

Up to 8Gb user memory

Viper4Android

Flashfire updates

More Languages

Xposed

Easyconnect Mirrorlink

and more....

KoTiX Lock Code

 

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.

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:
