After a full week and feeling pretty adjusted to the new screen, the only issue I have is steering wheel controls are finicky.
Volume up/ down always work, but track back/ fwd prompt a rewind/ fast fwd action instead half the time.
This is using android auto (mostly Apple music, not as much w/...
Sorry, I thought you were asking if you can connect additional phones.
That not being able to switch phones thing is a non issue. You still have sync, you just have a new screen.
I'd be careful w/ a Chinese screen w rca outs. They're already finicky, and you want to add a (cheap) amp to it?
Power fluctuations might brick the unit. Pull your signal elsewhere and give the screen less to do imo.
A stable screen w/ a decent power amp would be 2x the price!
It's the refresh rate of the camera. Lights are good.
The 14.4 looks like more a stock fit to me. I'm also used to my wife's explorer w the 10" screen, so I liked it poking out the dash.
If i ever watch videos, I'll connect to my mobile hotspot.
There's a nice Ford splash screen on initial boot up. Haven't seen it s since.
I'm sure the potential for these octocore units will go to the moon once more people get them. I honestly haven't messed around other than initial set up. I'm good right now.
I tried to re-create the camera scenario. The camera screen would not pop up before the unit finished loading.
However once screen popped up, it processed apps as soon as I touched the icon.
I will add, my typical boot times have been a tad quicker then that video. Usually by time the chimes...
No ghosting or issues w the screen at all. Also I got to add that the layout of the reverse screen w the sensor data is very intuitive (at least for me). Feels right.
I didn't have a cd player, but your dash (space wise) should look like this when ready to install. If the cd changer blocks the...
Factory USB still works, but only w/ sync. If you need to install a software update or watch videos from a usb, you have to plug into the USB going to the unit.
So I'm up and running. Install was pretty straight forward w/ exception of the sync 3 connection which ended being a pain. overall about 2hrs.
Initial impressions after about 1hr of play...I F'n love it. I have all my OEM functions and the screen is fast and very responsive. The glare for me is...
Does the GPS antenna work w Google maps or just the proprietary navigation?
Have you tried wired android auto? Is it full screen?
My unit was supposed to show up yesterday as well, got pushed to today. I hope to install this weekend!
Any issues to report? Was any updates needed after install?
How's the boot up time? I've noticed on a couple of their videos, they edit out the boot ups.
I see they installed the supplied microphone. They claim the unit works w/ the factory mic. I wonder (emailed them of course) if the factory mic works to control the unit in total or just in sync 3.
I also have no plans on installing the 4G accessories. Hopefully shipping is quick, I'm pretty...
