How to use your phone as a hotspot to get internet in your vehicle with the GEN 5 T-Style?

@Columbuscaraudio 10 ай бұрын

Should be as simple as turning hotspot on in your phone, going into the menu on the linkswell, and connecting to the network that your phone created. Their tech support is very helpful, and I’m sure they can give you detailed instructions on how to do that. 👍

Awesome video, I have a 2020 ram 1500 crew with 8.4 factory screen. I was looking into this linkswell tablets gen 4 and gen 5 and I see now they have a xl one that 15". Do you think there worth the money and work well? Heard a few people say they work ok in the beginning then start getting really slow and freezing up. Have you had any problems with them? You think the gen4 gen 5 and xl 15" are about the same? Thanks

They are android based, so there can be miscellaneous quirks I suppose. One quirk on the gen 4 & 5 that would bug me for example is not being able to have a different audio source playing (ie FM) while the CarPlay screen is up. That would bug me. On the Gen6 (which I believe all of the XL screens are), I’ve been told that that is fixed. I haven’t done one personally to verify though. Just like any device these days…keep it updated, and all should be well. Their tech support is typically very helpful as well if you do have an issue 👍

@Columbuscaraudio cool yeah that xl is the one I been looking at, I have an android phone and usually listen to KZfaq music for my system. I never listen to the radio ever. I see it has rca outputs as well I'm wondering if I would use those to go to my sub amp or jus keep using my line out converter harness that has anc bypass on it as well. Guess if I used the rca outs on the linkswell I would jus need to anc bypass that all

@@johnnypiper1717 you can do it either way. You can leave it as is, since it’s already working. Or you can use the sub-out so you have sub control on screen. Thank you for the great questions btw 👍👍

@Columbuscaraudio awesome, you wouldn't happen to know if the 5th gen ram 1500 thats non amplified factory have bass roll off? I really need an rta to see jus heard there was and heard there wasn't. Thats why I went with the wavetechDQ loc since it has a parametric eq on it to target certain frequencys and you are able to boost the signal around those frequency with 0-12db boost and put it narrow or wide. May jus need to call a shop see if they have an rta and can check that out for me. Those linkswell xl screens have eq settings on them as well?

@@johnnypiper1717 It seems like just about every car these days has some type of bass roll off, auto-loudness, or whatever you’d like to call it. Doing a new headunit is a great way to get rid of it completely though. And yes, the linkswell units have a pretty comprehensive set of audio controls onboard. Obviously not as flexible as a standalone DSP, but more than most headunits for sure 👍

Would this work in a 2013 ford raptor?

@Columbuscaraudio 10 ай бұрын

Yes, there is one for that generation F150. I know there are some console pieces that are different on the Raptor, but if I remember correctly, the radio bezel is the same between the 2 👍 Here is some info: www.linkswellinc.com/products/radios/t-style-radio/the-t-style-radio/gen-4/2013-2014-ford-f150-generation-4-t-style-radio-no-hdmi-input/

Does Sirius radio play or you have to download?

@Columbuscaraudio 2 ай бұрын

The earlier models did not have the input for a satellite tuner, but the new ones do. But yes, even on an older one you could use the app via CarPlay/android Auto
