Hello,
can you please give me a link to a firmware for S160 M008?

You may need to repair your unit.

Hi Leigh,

Hope you can help me with my M232 S160 installed in my ecosport. I messing around in the settings and I came across this "default appearance" of some sort. There are two items and I selected the other one. After that the unit restart and now suck at boot (circle animation). What to do in this kind of situation? Thank you!

Hi,
Are you typing about Dalvik & ART?
You should wait for your unit to boot. This can take up to 15 minutes depending on how many Apps you have installed. After this, you can convert back to Dalvik again.
If your device botts then you should also take some photos of the "about device" screens before converting back

Let me know how you go.
Regards, Leigh

Hi Leigh,

Thanks for responding. Yes, you are right I selected the ART then the unit did not boot. I tried leaving the unit powered up for more than 15 mins but still stuck on the boot (circle animation). I reset it many times by pressing the small hole button on the screen while stuck on boot, maybe it corrupted because of that??? There are no apps installed asside from the built in once since I recently reset it. Please help I cant find anything online to fix my problem.

Thank you!

Hi,

I have sent a link for M232 to your PM Box. Sorry for the delay (I've been busy with other projects).

Regards, Leigh

Hi Leigh,

Thanks for this. I was able to reflash my unit and it is working again.

Another question. I can't install any nav apps from play store. What is the remedy for this?

Hi,
That is great news.

Android 4.4.4 is no longer supported by Play Store.
You should search the web for IGO for Android. You can copy IGO to an SDcard and run it from the card. You can also search for IGO Maps to get the latest maps for your Country (sorry I cannot make reference to other Forums here).

Regards, Leigh
P.S. Once you have IGO & Maps, I can help you with setup if you need help with that.

hello leigh63
I followed the procedure you told me
I formatted the sd card in FAT32 and I copied the entire folder on it I put it in the map reader I turned on the car radio with the home button pressed I heard the first beep then the second beep after a bad image appeared as if there is a resolution problem PHOTO 1
I tried with other sd card still the same problem
I tried to turn on the car radio without touching anything as I did with the first software I had installed because the software I had installed installed without pressing the home button
the car radio comes on with the nissan logo photo 2 and then it gives me a red screen photo 3
I apologize brother for this inconvenience

Hi
It looks very similar issue with my head unit. I suppose the problem in EMMC. You can find a lot of information about EMMC replacement in head units, seems it's a common issue for these devices.
I have changed the chip by myself, but now I have a white screen while trying to load firmware on new EMMC. Maybe I damaged something during chip replacement.
