The car play api allows the apps to use gps and other locational info from the vehicle. This is why Waze speed gauge is usually 5-10 mph off when plugged into sync vs just using the phone by itself. I wish there was a setting to disable the vehicle location data use for carplay.

(I dont know why this quoted nik meant to quote the other guy as nik already knows this)

Why don’t you just use the USB CarPlay adapter and get full screen CarPlay.

CarPlay is what I’m referring to. Unless you mean jailbreaking and full screen mirroring?

No, what he is saying is use CarPlay through the Phoenix api with the CarPlay dongle. Do not go through the sync api through the sync USB port. That way the speed will be correct on Waze and you will have access to full screen navigation.

Yes exactly what I mean. See post 656 and 665 above.

I ordered one of those dongles and it kept turning the screen on and off when I put it in the USB port so I sent it back. I would suggest asking what dongle Someone is using with success.

My new px6 shipped today.
Looking forward to your experience with it.
Honestly, I'll be thrilled if you report it to be exactly as your previous one, except that it responds like it has the additional horsepower.

While I'm happy to see further features and development on the Android side of the equation, I'd be thrilled with JUST a seamless and clean pass through experience with Sync3.

I've got a "bucket-list" audio system running behind my Sync3 interface, so I'm mostly just wanting the fancier console presentation of the display itself. Your posts from the very beginning of this thread to current have been encouraging. Thanks!

When using Waze, my screen does not default to night mode at night. I've tried setting the Waze option to night mode, but it ignores my selection. It is stuck in day mode. Anyone know how to get the Waze display to got to night mode?

So I found the fix, pretty basic...Uninstall Waze App then re-install. Duh...
