Below is the link where I purchased mine from. They are a legit seller. They will message you for a picture of your center console to make sure you get the correct unit for your model and they will also send you an instruction manual via email if you ask and they check each unit before shipping it. Shipping is usually 6-7 days which is incredibly fast coming overseas.

@chasebitzer6974 Ай бұрын
are you having a song skipping issue. When using CarPlay and skipping the song (using the steering wheel), it switches over to sync or some sort of radio static and then comes back to the song?

hey Jim.. Great content! Was wondering how the audio is when you use your handsfree to make phone calls. Saw a review who said its awful!
@f1fiftyjimmy 3 күн бұрын
When you're in CarPlay mode you will be using the front little mic in the lower left corner or if you ran the external one that it comes with. What I have been doing is when a call comes in on my iPhone I switch it from CarPlay to Raptor which then uses the sync app for the call and using the oem microphone.

Hey what's up bro good video I got mine few months ago, what's your take on the microphone people keep telling me I sound low on they're end I've connected external mic supplied with it and still get people telling me I sound low I find myself having to talk loud for em to hear me, do you recommend just using tablet mic or external that's supplied in box have you had any complaints or changed any settings for that, thanks in advance other than that love the tablet
@f1fiftyjimmy 23 күн бұрын
What a lot of people are doing including myself is just switching the call over to the console app. I never ran the external mic.
@stephensennikoff3430 27 күн бұрын
I know youre using nova launcher. Is there any way to get around the "console" app opening on startup? I have the nova launcher selected as the default launcher, still opens console app when turning on the truck and the console app screen flashes when turning off the truck.
@f1fiftyjimmy 26 күн бұрын
From what I’ve noticed in Android 13 console app pops up more upon start up. Android 11 it didn’t. Not sure how to rectify that right now.
@earlyblackmz Ай бұрын
If I’m listening to sirius and shut the truck off. When I turn it back on it starts on AM radio and I have to cycle through all the settings to get back to where I left it. Is there a way to fix that? So annoying
@f1fiftyjimmy Ай бұрын
Ya I’ve noticed with Android 13 it seems to bring console app back most the time but I still sometimes have to select the channel.
@RudyMills4 Ай бұрын
Thanks for these videos. Without the Vol(Power) knob and Next button, how do you reboot the Sync3 module?
@f1fiftyjimmy Ай бұрын
Yep no problem! Usually what I do is just pull up recent apps and close out the sync app, if I need to do something more I click the little reset button on the front of the screen.
@RudyMills4 Ай бұрын
@@f1fiftyjimmy Gotcha. I wonder if we can figure out another way to reboot the module itself, if needed. I have one on the way from China now.
@f1fiftyjimmy Ай бұрын
@@RudyMills4 once you open the recent apps and close it that’s essentially rebooting sync. The other way to reboot the complete screen in Android 13 swipe down from the top and there’s a shortcut to reboot the unit rather than trying to put a small pin in and clicking the reset button.
@RudyMills4 Ай бұрын
The app just ports the Sync3 display to a frame in the software, right? …so I’d think it isn’t actually emulating any APIM functionality, and restarting the android app wouldn’t fix a freeze or issues on the APIM itself. If the APIM needs a reboot, normally you can hold Vol(Power) and Next for a few sec to force the reboot (I think you mentioned that in one of your vids). I should be getting my finicky APIM replaced under warranty before installing the new radio, so hopefully it’s not an issue. Still though, would be nice to know how just in case.

Thanks for the video. Are there any benefits of going through Autotec. If I understand correctly, by going through the link you provided, you are bypassing the middleman. Correct?

I bought mine a year a half ago and have had way less problems then with the ford oem system. In the 2014 you lose all buttons with the 14.4" screen. Is the update even worth doing?
@f1fiftyjimmy 20 күн бұрын
To be honest not really. You lose the ability to split screen console and CarPlay.

Can you please help me SIR

Is the microphone usable or do you have to switch to the OEM when making a phone call? I heard It’s not good! Would you consider this a dealbreaker?

Lag/delay is to be expected with any wireless carplay. The experience going from wired to wireless is noticeable. On the other hand regarding the Android 13 os experience using Nova Launcher it is actually stable and fast.

I live in Arizona and my unit isn't working like it should now that summer is here and I'm not sure if it's the heat but it is coinciding with it. I have had issues from the get go of buying it in December 2023. I see all these other posts on how great this unit is but it is not great/good in my case. I'm regretting buying it. I've tried contacting Autotec (where I bought it from) but they have redirected me to their KZfaq videos which don't help much.
