Yes...in fact the only way to get it _not_ to is to unplug it or have a power switch. The first time it powers up you'll get a pop up asking if you want Torque to be the default app for that device, thereafter it will run automatically as long as it is connected.

The launcher I use doesn't allow for widgets, but most do, yeah. Here's some dude on XDA who has a red icon pack and widgets going on:

mmm...don't know, I don't have it set up that way, but whatever you have set up on your nexus should work the same.

Joying Android 4.4.4 Kitkat Toyota Head Unit

So I contacted joying and asked them if my iPhone would work and they sent me a message saying that apple car play works but they're not sure if it's perfect.

Here is a video:
[ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0TMY1UItcQ&t=12s"]Joying Car Play System Car Head Unit Stereo test by iPhone 7 plus IOS 10.3.2 - YouTube[/ame]

Damn I'm really starting to love this headunit

EDIT: never mind! They're coding it and still working on it!

For those who have the unit installed, does the factory aux work?

There's a thread on that, it involves soldering into the HU

I used the AV audio in and hooked it to the adaptor and it works just fine with the Stock Aux port.


Btw they said Car play is coming soon? How would we get it tho ? Download from the app store?

I saw one place that was selling an adapter for car play. Think I saw it in AliExpress.
