anyone on NTG 4.5 having an issue where the control knob is actually communicating with the OEM NTG4.5 software in the background?
there are times i can hear navigations from the original system when i obviously haven't selected it from the CarPlay system.

I want to switch from Joyeauto to RoadTop. What issues are you currently having it any?
Does your phone connect wirelessly every time with out issue even if you leave the car and return a few minutes later? What about the wired connection?

Yes my phone does connect every time. When I leave the car with the engine running and then come back to the car it does reconnect but it can take 40-50 seconds for it to reconnect. Only updated it today so not had chance to see what issue I have or more to the point what issues have been sorted with this update.

The issues Iv'e had before the update are.
  • Since IOS 14 update it had started to crash every now and then. But I'm told the update will sort this.
  • Echoing on the phone. Also supposed to be sorted.
  • Left steering wheel controls moving the Carplay when I'm changing something on the dash.
  • Not showing the correct daytime or night time screens. I'm told this was also sorted with the update. Yet to test.
  • When reading texts volume a lot lower that music level. This is now sorted.
Overall I think the system is very good. The only gripe I really have is not being able to use the vehicle radio as well as using the Carplay system. If you have the vehicle radio on then you get no sound from the Roadtop unit but I guess all these system are the same with this. I have noticed that since the update if I put BBC sounds on it reconnects and plays every time I get in the car which is as good as it going to get I guess.

Thanks for that input. Very useful. Just trying to avoid moving from one set of problems to another. For my needs, 40-50 seconds to reconnect is unacceptable. It happens with the joyeauto unit as well. I very often am rushing and I need carplay navigation to work instantly.

If it works instantly with the wired lightning cable, I’d be good with that.

Given the limitations I think I need to be looking at something else. I was looking at 10 or 12 inch android screens but I’m seeing folks having issues with those as well.

Right now, I’m using my phone and a vent mount.

Be carefull there are 2 HW versions of road top BENZ and BENZ2 , if you crossflash between them can brick the unit.
Now i have a BENZ2 unit but i bricked my old BENZ unit flashing a wrong mcu version from a BENZ2 unit.

Hello,
I had an issue on my GL X166 with left steering wheel buttons affecting RoadTop CarPlay, so I installed MCU-BENZ-20.5.25 mentioned in this thread and it did fix the issue. On the other hand, my rear camera stopped working when in CarPlay. Does anyone have any other MCU update for HW Version: BENZ?

I was on to Roadtop customer services through WhatsApp only 3 days ago and was given 20.4.22.16 as the latest version for the Benz hardware. Is the one you have a later firmware? My left steering wheel buttons still affects the Carplay unit.

Here are the links for ROADTOP HW BENZ2

CUST Version: v2.1.0.9.speach.lt.m4_2
MCU Version: 20.10.5.10

https://mega.nz/file/aNNQVR7C#oGJzZm...vFxOuT3cKACg1k

https://mega.nz/file/zUdQxDgD#DOIzrO...sE8H7HHrjp9Pys

For cust v2.1.1.2.ltm4_2 i dont have the file because the link sent to me the seller has expired and i didnt save the file.

You can also ask to the seller if there are newer files for cust and mcu if you tell him you are having problems with sound and later share it with us ,
