Don't quite have your setup since i have the OEM audio plus system. But what do you mean xhifi is the only one that works? Are you sure you're installing the right version because when you download you get 2 versions (2.3 and 4.x). I don't mean that as an insult to you btw, I mention it because I made the mistake myself. Make sure you're using the 4.x apk.

Also use covolvers. If you're not using covolvers you're not unlocking the potential of V4a IMO. The best I've found is here:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2439254

fyi majority do not work for me. But BBE-2 is the best of the ones that work. Also towards the bottom of your v4a options there is an option for max output did you try turning that up? Hope some of this helps!

Anyone know how to get around this? Thanks!
USB in the car from factory or USB from headunit??

Bluetooth is odd with this thing. Works find on my Edge but any Iphone will not pair

I'm using the bottom one. Not many options in that version. To test amp/sub I hooked up RCA to my phone and it thumped clean and hard.

I see, I am not using the Xhifi version because they no longer update it. When you go to the official site here:

http://vipersaudio.com/blog/?page_id=48

I use this one: FX version v2.3.4.0 (Android 2.3~5.0) and in there is a 2.3 and 4.x version. I installed the 4.x version. Works perfect

Has there been anyone on here that didn't have a SD card reader installed in their head unit? I've contacted cafi with no response. Also my C: drive says I have 5gb available but I can't even update any apps or download any. Please help someone!!!

I remember hearing about this a long time ago. Apparently an update fixed it and TBH I haven't even looked at my SD card slot haha

Yeah I went to put in my 64 GB micro SD and it fell through. I was pretty pissed. Even more so when the tuner I bought it from wouldn't warranty it.

Hi All

i am just installing my dashlinq4 in the UK

I bought this second hand with the main plan to use the DEFI app linked to the advance series gauges - that and spotify!

The app works fine on my phone / tablet but struggling to get it to connect to the dashlinq..





connection from in the app seems to go ok, though it notes "connected to phone" though when i go into the bluetooth settings it is as a obd device and shows as disconnected

Am i missing something or am i looking at a need to root it? (hope not as havent got a clue on rooting!!!

Thanks

Neil

Finally got my camera connected. Couldn't find anywhere good to run the wire. I have 2 cameras but 1 would require i cut a hole in car to push through. I pulled the surround piece off and ran the cable for this one for now. Ran cable through the license plate light but it doesnt seat fully. Any ideas?

I had to remove my LED license plate bolts due to being to wide to fit through the camera mount points. I already had to drill out my license plate and frame lol.

I MAY just drill a hole and mount the other camera but not sure about having the camera set off to the side...

On my BRZ Limited I was able to run the wire to the side of the light and have it sit flush without cutting/drilling, but my wire went to the left of the license plate light whereas yours is to the right. I'm not sure if maybe theres more space towards the left of the light, but your wire may just be too thick. It might be worth a shot to try.

Also in case you didn't know, you can run the wire from the trunk lining to the inside of the car through that rubber grommet on the left of your first picture.
