I think there is no standard for cables: it depends on the manufacturer of the Android unit, therefore you should be careful: I suppose that, also if the plugs are similar, the cable connection may not have the same layout.
More, the specifications are rarely available online from these small manufacturers
ok ok thank you very much for your answer, I thought that the connections would be worth it since apparently they seem the same
Hi guys,
I’ve searched in the thread but not able to find something.
i am using the dragonfly red, after firmware update of it I got a good sound quality but it’s always low. Android doesn’t save the volume at 50-75 or whatever percentage, everytime after a new start it goes down to 25. can someone help?
I created a custom bracket, so the screen will sit lower and looks more like the original w205 facelift screen.
Maybe this could be interesting for someone

I installed Roadtop Android 11, 10.25 screen yesterday. Absolutely beautiful, and install was straightforward (for the most part).
I used their video, a few from Flexx, this thread and a few others for the install:
-Slow going right off the bat, struggled to get the OEM screws released, and the screen out
-Broke two clips on the metal piece that sits in front of the center console, but there are enough clips on it that it doesn’t matter when reinstalled
-It’s a tight fit with all the (extra) wiring, especially since most of it isn’t needed (for me at least)
-Still need to mount the antennas, they are sitting in the mesh netting in the passenger side, along with the two USB connectors
-Need to play around with the audio switching, but looks like this thread may have my answers
Has anyone here had any problems with the touch? I have the Navifly N600 10.25-inch screen on W204 and the Google maps and some other applications are doing ghost/random touches on the screen, the map keeps dragging and popping when the screen is taking ghost touches... This happens usually only when the screen is a bit cold, it stops after like 5-15min when the screen gets warmer.

Morning. New to the thread and have found this thread awesome as I’m looking for a new head unit for my w205. I want to buy a new version android 11 6/128 with a 12.3 screen. I have read that there some fake units out there and wanted to know if you guys could recommend any particular unit and seller on AliExpress? I also have a few questions.
1st does the android unit have ac controls? Or do you have to go back to the mb interface to adjust?
2nd. I noticed that some interfaces have a 5 icon Home Screen and some have 3. Is this an option or a difference interface offered by different sellers
3rd. Can you currently listen to the radio and use CarPlay navigation? Assuming audio is an issue is that correct? Or do the new head unit get pasted this by using external speaker?
thanks in advanced.

Hello @benzdude . I have newest 12” display for a few days. Everything work great. I always use carplay but when I turn on OEM 360 camera music stop from Android screen (even with music or Youtube app from Android screen also stop playing). Is there any way to keep music playing when using camera 360 ?.
Thank you very much for your help.

Sorry, i dont have a 360 camera. Have you tried asking on the Android screen discord channel? There are plenty of users and experts there that can help.
@benzdude do you know if you can get a fm tuner on these units? I want to be able to listen to the radio and CarPlay navy at the same time. From what I can tell that’s not possible. Is that right?

Carplay navy? No idea. Ask the discord guys. You don't use oem radio?
Hi I just installed my new screen and went really well. Just got one issue. When coming out of reverse and going into drive this comes up for about 5secs. Any ideas @benzdude
it has oem 360 camera. If I turn that off goes away
I think it’s the front camera coming on!
