FlyAudio In-Dash Multimedia GPS Navigation System for Lexus IS250/350
#2131
Does anyone have any problems with their GPS acquiring the satellite signal? My navigation will fail to acquire a signal after my car has sat overnight sometimes and it'll take a day or two for it to start working properly. What gives? I have a Gen2 Flyaudio unit with the newest bios (did it on the old bios also). Problem occurs with both iGO Primo AND Odyssey. Ugh!

if you scroll back to page 61, someone posted a picture of their trunk lid with the camera installed, just to give you an idea how slim this camera is...

I've been finding these license plate cameras all over the Internet but they are all from unknown websites from China, Hong Kong, or Ukraine.I'm still apprehensive about drilling into my trunk. I'd like to know I can easily reverse to stock if I wanted to.

I'm so close to upgrading my stock stereo on my 2011 to this, but I have a few questions:
1.) Will this void factory warranty?
2.) Will my talk command on the steering wheel work for flyaudio? IE, making calls, dialing, various set ups?
3.) Can I use my existing microphone or will I have to replace with flyaudio's?
Thanks in advance.

talk command is a no go, mode button will work though and volume up/down. no voice commands or bluetooth commands from wheel.
you will have to use the fly audio mic.
and as far as all known issues bieng resolved and fixed is a bunch of B.S.
i bought a 2nd gen unit new and have updated bios as well, there i still many issues that need fixing. if i were you i would buy the cheaper unit from alibaba because it will work exactly the same as a $1299 flyaudio unit and only cost $480 plus shipping.

im so furrious with this unit that im contacting flyaudio directly and sending this crap back , and either they fix it or send me a new one.
here is what flyaudio claims:
R&D group
FLYAUDIO has over 60 experienced R&D and technical engineers. The R&D groups, including electronic, mechanical, software, and design department etc. focus on product creation and quality improvement.
me: 60 r&d? then why cant they still get this pos unit to work correctly? or is it just.... well it works close to 90% correct and they will buy it anyway, so lets just start to market it already.
and where is the improvements? a bios update? for real? like that solved anything! how about re designing a whole new unit that actually works the first time and has no issues at all and give the people who bought one a partial credit back in exchange for a new one.

Just a thought here, if you own a smartphone you can get way more functionality out of that using a bluetooth receiver that plugs into your aux port and a Kuda mount than you can ever get from Flyaudio or the other cheaper unit.
This is the one I use: http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPa...duct_Id=525857. I have the big button glued onto the cup holder lid and I just close the center console lid over the cable leading to it.

flyaudio shoud be ashamed of producing such a pos unit and charging the outrageous amount of money and still claiming all the issues has been fixed! ALL OF THE ISSUES HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. i cant see why vendors are still supporting this junk knowing it has issues that still need addressing and have not been able to find a permanent fix for, unless the markup is huge of course then i can understand. at least the cheaper unit on alibaba is only $480 and it most likely will have issues as well , just not a $1299 issue.
here is a link for the product im talking about.

and a link to another thread where it is bieng tested by others. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...ufacturer.html

yes! i have. and my 2nd gen unit is updated to current bios and the unit will not read mp3 files on the sd card. radio switches from sources by itself, usb takes forever to load and recognize files. unit also freezes up at times. not worth the $1299 at all. not even worth $600 . it is a pos unit at this point. someone needs to make a better unit that works flawlessly and cost less than $800

like half the price? the flyaudio unit can be found for $1299 from clt here on the forums. this new unit is $480 . its more closer to 2x less than fly unit. i say just get it and and do it already the headlights can wait and you are gonna get more direct use out of the new dvd unit than the headlight upgrade for sure! GL to you. fly audio will have no choice now to either match the price or build a new unit with more features like wifi and internet access, and of course it has to work perfectly. but from seeing as how the first unit went and the 60 R&D guys who came up with it failed to get it correct even to this day, i doubt they will do anything at all. no sales = lower price sooner or later, just sit back and see what i mean.
