Is the X Trons a straight plug and play no mods necessary

There's multiple threads on here about installing them. Do a search.

I installed a generic pioneer, very happy with the results but I wasn't after many features other than USB and decent sized screen.

I have Xtrons on my C55, plug and play besides wiring up 12v+, switched 12v+ and ground on the optical to analog converter. Decent HU for the price but a bit lacking in the sound quality department.

Still got to be better than stock

i tried one. They all are pretty much generic chinese units, with minimal differences between the various "brands". (same factory). My requirements were to retain 99% of stock features and not lose anything. Turn by turn directions on the dash was gone (if that matters to you) and several other features were gone as well. I also wanted to have my phone as a hotspot to have Waze onscreen on the unit. None of that worked out, so I went back to stock and simply do what Ive been doing: use my smartphone and I use a bluetooth device connected to the 3.5mm AUX port in the glove for my phone to connect to when I need to

Hello Again. I completed my Android 9" screen and I am 85% happy with it. The main problem I usually experience is the BT disconnect. I have to say the disconnect is originating on the Android screen and not my on my iPhone as the rest of the BT devices do not lose connectivity.

That said, while installing the unit I came across this Antenna Looking PCB board that was either hanging somewhere inside the dash or I disconnected while pulling the unit out. My question is can someone identify the cable? What kind of connection it is to the main unit? I searched the forums for an infotainment unit like mine with a legend but could not find one just like mine.



Thanks

Eric@wages

anyone??

Thanks

I took it apart and follow the cable while installing my new unit. That PCB board is the GPS antenna and it sits right behind the radio.

hello there,

Has anyone updated the ZLINK APK on their Android head infotainment unit? Is it as straight forward as just installing the APK to replace the older one? I currently have a MEKEDE N600 Snapdragon unit that came with ZLINK version 3.5.30 and I just downloaded version 3.5.57 from the XDA forums.

Any help greatly appreciated.
