I just tried and for some reason, youtube and netflix don’t allow mirroring here. It just show a black screen when the video is playing. However, below are the solutions: For youtube, there is an actual Youtube app (it’s preinstalled, but can be updated from Google Play Store). I have a couple screenshot attached. For netflix, the current netflix app in google play store doesn’t support android 6.0.1 that this box has. Please follow Netflix instruction and download the previous version of the app here: https://help.netflix.com/en/node/12983 https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.clu...7d5beacd0.jpeg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.clu...2df4bdcad.jpeg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.clu...e17e93c06.jpeg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.clu...0e79c487a.jpeg how is do you download this old version of Netflix? I find the link on the page, but do you go to the page from this android box’s browser? I tried and click on the app link but don’t know where to see the downloaded apk. Or did you download it to SD card? My sd card is already in the android box, now put back behind the head unit. |

go to the link using chrome on the android box. After it download, it will ask if you wanted to install. Then click install. I remember I did that https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.clu...273fa92b0.jpeg |
Also, how do you download Netflix/YouTube into the SD card, instead of the system storage? I can’t find option to change the default location. |
I went ahead and ordered one too. I found an option to use a wire transfer so I didn't have to send pictures of ID and bank statement. Google searching the "verification" challenges I had turned up many people with the same problem. In my case, I had used Aliexpress for a smaller purchase years ago on an old credit card, and then never tried to use it again until recently. Trying to associate a new card with the same account lead to their strange requests.

Has anyone tried add a chromecast dongle so you can cast things to the screen? |
This is how my install looked at the end. I thoroughly enjoy having CarPlay in my RX along with all the other stuff I can do with the Android box. Also just nice having a dock to put my phone on when I get in to the car and just grab it off when I'm leaving.

Just followed directions per qvtruong in his above posts and it was pretty painless.

So which module and how much is it? The site is pretty hard to follow, huge graphics, very small text, and I cannot seem to create an account without submitting several documents. This all looks pretty shady to me.
|
LOL It all looked shady to me but took the plunge and glad I did. Its only like $600 anyway.

How’d you get the carplay dongle under the climate control unit? I read on here that there’s a way to not have to rely on Bluetooth by using the aux connection. Did you do that? If so, what’s the additional wiring necessary for that? |
