Is it slower than a 5 year old tablet? Do I sometimes have to piss buttons 8 times before they make contact? Could it have more memory so you can have more than two apps open? Could it have better GPS? Newer OS? Custom OS/kernel? Etc. Yes to all but It still beats $900 units imo. Where you located? |

mid missouri.
i mean i don't need much from the unit. I probably wont use most apps aside from google maps, a music player, and vlc/youtube. but it seems like alot here are saying the sound quality is inferior to stock which is a big turnoff for me.. no matter how nice the unit looks.

I dunno about the CT, but my 4 had markedly improved sound quality over the stock BRZ Limited HU, even before I installed the OEMAudio+ speaker kit.

In fact reform it is much better than the BRZ unit. I had the bespoke and it this is a downgrade in sound quality but I believe that can be fixed through software

Yeah. I sent them a video and Will is forwarding it to his team. I gotta say though other than the AUX messing up(which is what I'll be using 99% of the time) everything else is pretty awesome. I just don't know if it's a wiring issue or an issue with the unit and can't seem to figure it out.

Wifi hotspot auto connect with iphone
Hi guys,
I purchased the radio and i am very pleased with it. I do have an impontant problem though. I have an iphone which i use as a hotspot to share my internet connection via wifi. The problem is that everytime i use the radio, i have to disable and then reenable the hotspot on the iphone 6 in order for the radio to connect to it again. Is there a way to make this automatic ? Anybody else had the same issue? Though i looked at the thread posts, i couldn't find the answer yet. Thanks ! |

Unless your iPhone is jailbroken, you have to navigate to the personal hotspot screen on the phone before a non-handoff device will see it even if you saved the connection previously. If you're having to reconnect it from the car side despite this, that sounds like a different problem. |
