I've got a 10.25" Android unit from RSNAV in my Audi. Check our their support pages, the Audi community is very active with the RSNAV units. http://wiki.rsnav.com/Main_Page

I really miss having an Android head unit in my GLK350. Looking for options for one.

10.25 inch android keeps rebooting

Hi all,

New to this forum. I bought a 10.25 inch android system for my 2009 C300 from Chris (a good person to do business with). Everything works, except every few minutes the system will reboot with no warning. No Apple Carplay. This happens much quicker when I try to play a song from phone to system through Bluetooth. Most times, I won't even be able to get through one song without it rebooting. Very frustrating. My question:
  • Ho do I stop the constant rebooting?
  • Is there something I need to turn off?
  • Is there something I need to turn on, or update?
Your help much appreciated.

I'm talking to owner of RSNAV devices to see if they are able to adapt their Android screens to work with Mercedes-Benz. I have one of their 10.25" head units in my Audi and I love it. I am picking up their latest version of board in the next week or so, which will be about the time they update their firmware/software to support upgrade to full Android 7.0 (not watered down version of Android that runs on TV stick as most Android units do. The mount and display look the same as the unit I have had in my Audi for the last couple years. Very happy with it, and miss having the same ability in my GLK350.

I installed the android screen over the weekend. Took a few hours and in the end its working great.

I mistakenly formatted the sd card with the igo navigation maps. Can anyone here help me get a copy of the folders and maps (North America), I would greatly appreciate it.

If anyone has any questions about the installation or features, Ill do my best to help answer them.

Here is the link I purchased the screen from: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Android-10-...72.m2749.l2649

It is on Android 8.1

Hate to burst the bubble, it's Android 6 with the build prop modified to 8.1, just as some are modified to 7.1

Does anyone have an issue with the first unit from CKM, unable to download most apps due to Google Play store saying the app version is not compatible with the tablet? I used to use the all Lyft Driver, not it doesn’t allow me to download and install anymore.
Says the same thing about Apple Music app.

I have a few observations/questions:

3. After some troubleshooting, I have audio going from the unit to my stereo without using the AUX input or the mini jack connector. Has anyone else noticed this? The longer story is I was troubleshooting poor audio quality coming from a ground loop isolator. I removed the isolator from the system and as I did this, I realized the audio continued without using the AUX mini jack output from screen to the car's input. The audio quality was immediately vastly improved and no engine noise. Not sure what connection the audio is going through, but I don't have Bluetooth audio in the car radio. Any thoughts? I'm super happy about it, but just curious.
How did you manage to do that?
Could you give us some hints as to what settings are you using to achieve this?

Have a read thought this thread, this issue has been answered a number of times. The search function is your friend.

Firstly you need to connect 2 wires together, which I assume your installers did NOT do, and secondly you need to pick the right screen option. Furthermore, there are a lot of video's here on youtube that fix your issue.

Hi, I just got my 10.25" unit and not a Android user. Have a silly question:
How do you rearrange the app icons within the App Folder. It is currently arranged by the sequence of my app installs.
When I press an app for more than 1 second, I can only delete the app but not to rearrange.
Any help is appreciated.

I don't think you can rearrange it, I would love to be proven wrong though

Sound only out of front left speaker

Anyone encounter this? When using mb screen/radio I get full sound but anything using the android only comes out of front left. I went into every sound setting I could find and can’t seem to figure out why.

I believe its how it handles voice from its Bluetooth-connection.

Have you set up the 10.25" correctly according to manual regarding how it supposed to go into to the menu-structure & select AUX?

Figured it out apparently if u certain add icons to the main screen it causes this problem. Removed all the icons and have sound! Below are the list of icons that work without causing issue that I know of.
navi,original menu/video/audio/bluetooth/bluetooth music/car info/dvr

It's the Radio icon that does this. No radio on the upgraded units
