I have a few questions still...

Is there a way to make the MUSIC app on the home screen to like Pandora?

I tried to move few apps to an external SD card (programmed) as internal but keeps showing "not enough space" and rejects the transfer.

Can anyone tell me how to remove the driving direction bar, the insanely thick green bar, from the top of Google Maps on this Android screen?
It's impossible to use the bloody map even though it is by far the best navigation I could find.
Between the top and the bottom bar there is almost nothing to see while navigating.

As per the other thread, don't believe you can. Most people us Waze which is also from Google with crowd sourcing added.

I'm actually sick of this 9.33" screen. It came broken and I had to super glue the screws in and epoxy weld the metal parts together underneath. I didn't even realize this until after it was installed and it kept rattling.

The sd slot on the left side was damaged from someone prying into it with a flathead or something. Because it's on the side and not the back, it sticks out like a huge mole and my eyes keep reverting to it lol.

There's a light spot on the screen that's really noticeable when it's a darker image. I think it's a dead pixel.

The screen still buzzes a lot and that's after I've tried so many things to help it be more stable.

To remove this screen you have to pop open the dashboard speaker cover and unscrew it. You can easily remove the 10.25" screen to add additional hardware or just replace the screen if needed.

The harness connects to the top of the back flat part of the screen assembly and it requires you to push the screen with force into the dashboard, because the harness wires stick up. On the 10.25" screen the harness connects to the back of the screen horizontally and ensures no damage to the wires.

This 9.33" screen doesn't have anywhere near the support that the 10.25" one gets from really good, responsive sellers like Carlife mall. I think that the 10.25" screen has a better design and it gets a lot of software updates. I only bought this screen because of the android auto issue on the 10.25" screen, which isn't the screen's fault. Plus you can screen mirror android auto on the 10.25" and it displays correctly, and eventually android auto is supposed to have widescreen support.

P.S. To anyone, if you get the 10.25" screen, request the harness that uses your usb port for sound instead of the bluetooth box. You should have better quality sound. You can use android auto with your phone connected to the cars bluetooth and utilize the app fully, and hang up and answer with your steering wheel.
Hi,
Do you have any reference to buy this "usb box"? Is it just an RCA to USB male connector or require any intelligent conversion circuits?
Thanks,

I'm thinking of buying one of these android units, can the rotary dial be used to control the android unit or do you have to use the touchscreen for everything?

Which one?!? I keep seeing 9.25 and 10.3 comments but I think the latest gen stuff is buried way back in the hundreds of comments previous lol

This 2016 C300 owner read-through first few pages and pretty much pressed right to the end!

Ok so now that I've actually picked up my c300 and played with COMAND I can say "meh it's okay but I want more".

Does this 9 or 10" screen allow installation of android auto?

Does it allow full functionality of the onboard systems?

How do I tell what model of audio system I'm actually running? What do you guys call it? Audio 20 vs some named version?

Behold; my noob questions!

You need to find out what NTG version you have... Put your VIN through this https://www.mbdecoder.com/ or another VIN decoder it should give you the NTG
You will have full functionality of your original NTG audio 20/command system
Full function of car play/android auto comes with a dongle... This is not supplied with the screen.
The latest screen... 10.25 Android 8 Octa-core 4gb ram 64gb rom works just like most android tablets using a tethered phone for internet access.

Ok thanks to the VIN reader and the poster above (thumb up) it looks like I'm running the NTG5*2 as I have the centre console wheel as well as the little finger mouse touch pad thing on it in my 2016 C300
