If you managed to do it last year, I think it will work again this year. (According to them, your card is suitable for it.)

android auto issue
Hi,
A friend of mine have bought a new Vitara and He's got issues using Android Auto.
I've tried with 3 phones (Poco F2, Samsung A51 and an old Asus Max 3) and 6 different cables (originals and bought on amazon)
Those phones and cables are working in my car, a Kia Stonic with an LG unit.
In the Vitara the Android Auto is not usually recognized or, when is recognized, it disconnects randomly after some time (up to 10 minutes) and stop working, than I have to shutdown the car and try again later.
The vendor told me something like "I'm using the most problematic phone vendor", which is a very awful answer.
Next friday they will try to apply the software again, hopefully an upgraded version.
Do you think it could be an hardware issue?? Anyone experienced something similar?

Android Auto is the biggest pain in the ass. It's the main reason why I keep using iPhones. You need to have the right combination of head unit, phone and cable. I'm not surprised that the Poco Phone and Asus didn't work but it's strange that the Samsung doesn't work either. All Samsung phones I tried so far (Note 8, S8 and Note 10) worked fine.
It's always a good idea to update the SLDA unit to the latest version. I can also recomend the cable I used with Android Auto. I bought it on Amazon and the brand is CableCreation. Those always worked with me. I have the short version of the cable (around 25 cm) but I don't find them on amazon currently.
Anyone to know If there is available wireless carplay adapter for SLDA like this one: https://carplay2air.com/
I asked that same question a few weeks ago and got no answer. Then I did some research and those adapters seem to work through Wifi. They just use bluetooth to make the initial connection. Since the SLDA doesn't have wifi, it will not work. That's the conclusion I found through my research. If someone can prove me wrong, that would be great
The wifi is provided by the adapter. The phone connects to the adapter wirelessly and the adapter converts it to usb wired connection, which SLDA accepts..........if it is compatibleI asked that same question a few weeks ago and got no answer.

If that's the case...if it doesn't need a wifi connection between the adapter and head unit, why wouldn't it work with all head units? Anyway...I was about to buy one and try it out (I would sell it on eBay if it didn't work) but then I thought that in most cases I want my phone connected with a cable anyway, so it can charge.

No worries! I will let you know right away once we are done with the test.

Hi everyone,
i have bought suzuki S-CROSS with 1880 version inside, but without any navigation card. I understood, that i will need SD card with the changeable CID. That's no problem. So i change CID and copy content of sd2-Suzuki-SLN_EUR_2019 v1.rar to the card and all will work? Is there any newer version than 2019v1? thanks for help and reply in advance!

Yes, sd2-Suzuki-SLN_EUR_2020 v2. Go back to page 157, you will find gold there.
seems links are dead,.. but i couldn't find old samsung card where is cid changeable :/
Have you requested the link from the poster?
Alternatively, you can order changeable CID cards from eBay. But only do that if you aware of the process and have the required hardware around.
Anyway, Suzuki's (non-existing) map database refreshing strategy is a joke, the current situation - buy a new SD card on full price - is highway robbery.

Hi,
Just to let you know that I emailed Zelemar quoting my order ref for a new 64Gb card and confirmed thar I required a card that was compatible with the SLDA Head unit.
It duly arrived and worked flawlessly out of the box..
Now to experiment with a 32Gb Samsung EVO Plus I purchased from Zelemar and a RaspberryPi 4B to see if I can rewrite the CID ? I can already read the CID of SD cards using a micro to full sized SD card adapter (running the Pi's OS from a USB drive). -
