Change settings in HUR, resolution and DPI, e.g. 230 (UI elements will be larger) - the Spotify icon will look like it should - without a white border.

I am able to get onto AAuto on my Car Andriod unit automatically using wifi mode setup with wifi Launcher App. But i am unable to get data connection from my phone. However, I am able to get data connection if i just hotspot it from my phone, but this way i need to manually open Headunit Reload App every time i start my car. Do you know the solution to this?

Someone has a system update (update file on usb) for the 1280x480 version? I would like to reinstall the OS.
I tried to edit the launcher (I have root) but something went wrong.
---------
I found an update.zip

Not sure which model they had or if they were experiencing a power drain for another reason but thought their screen was causing it, but I know for 100% certain mine fully shuts down and draws no power. There are times where I don't drive my lexus for a week or more at a time and I've never had an issue. Also if it never fully shut down the boot time wouldn't be so long.
There are many things that could cause a power drain, but I do not think any version of this screen would cause that, because all versions of this screen hook into the stock stereo connection, which the power to it is not on while the car is off. As mentioned could be many other causes, but I do have a guess. Some people with a unit like this use one of those OBD bluetooth adapters so they can run Torque and/or another info/diagnostic app on their unit (I do), but most of the cheap OBD dongles do not shut off and will drain the battery. There are pricer OBD dongles that supposedly cut power after a certain amount of time, but I can't comment as I have a semi cheap one and I just unplug it anytime I'm not using it.

I got the same 4x4 unit as you. I having trouble to connect my 4x4 unit to my bluetooth OBDII reader. When ever I try to pair it shows error incorrect pin/password. It doesn't even ask me to enter pin/password when i try to pair it like i do with my phone. How did you get the 4x4 android unit connected to bluetooth OBDII reader?

I was looking into buying one of these units, but when i was reading the description it says it would not fit my car if I already have an OEM 10.25 in the screen. Does anyone know if this is true

Just get the beat sonic android interface if you already have the 10.25" screen. Why would you want to replace your nice OEM 10.25" screen with a knockoff that has glair issues?

I've never noticed any glare issues. The OEM infotainment is quite garbage tbh.......probably worst in class. These upgrades are a huge improvement imo.

I'm still having trouble to get sound from Sygic navigation app. When I switch screens to Android I get this message but I don't know where the settings are "In order to hear the sound please check that you have switched to the original AUXIN state"
All other sound works except Sygic navigation. Google Maps sound comes from the Android speaker, as well as the notification sounds.
While I'm at it, does anyone have any other good GPS apps? I like the stock Navigation screen where you can drive with the map on and it moves as you go, showing upcoming streets. I prefer to keep that on my screen as I drive.
