Morning folks been a while since I have flashed a rom but didn't expect issues from the work go, so I am on Android 6 trying to do the update, have made the bootable sdcard added the update img ect but as soon as I restart the unit with the newly made bootable sdcard all I get is a black screen...

I am 90% certain I have done that, but will double check... Many thanks Must have been the carrier (giffgaff) as just tried a diff sim and got 4G

Being a driving instructor I get to try it is multiple places all day and have never got 4G from it, can confirm that on my mobile with the same provider I can get 4G almost everywhere I go. Perhaps it's electrical interference that stops the unit achieving 4G or maybe I should check my APN...

I am uncertain as to the reason, I was very suspicious of their claim of 4G in the first place, has any actually achieved 4G with this unit using its own sim card?

I will just note that my short time with the c500 (octa) with sim card can not achieve 4G here in the UK.

Depends on your camera, most seem to be hard coded into the camera, there is a setting to turn of the UNITS grid lines in driving settings but most likely you will still have the lines of the camera on the screen. These can only be removed with a hardware modification of the actual camera.

Thanks...Turned out that all I needed to do was download the google calendar app, go figure! Never had to do that before tho.

Yes

Yes the camera works fine, can't say I have noticed anything wrong with it, comes on instantly. I am a driving instructor so obviously do a lot of reversing with my pupils. So far it works just as well as my old eonon quads. The car specific one seems to be better than the ownice one but that...

Been messing around with the 2 octal core units that came the other day and have to say that so far the c500 is nothing compared to the generic car specific octacore that I also got. Two really stupid problems I have with the c500 and it's embarrassing to even mention it! I can't get google...

I think my octal c500 should be coming today as long as I don't miss the delivery, what is it people want to know about this unit? I think the main thing is the reversing camera coming on instantly right?

So songs stored on a USB stick can't be read by Poweramp? Dam that sucks!

On or in? I have mine stuck to the cage of the stereo inside the dash and works fine, modern gps receivers do not need to be right next to the windscreen these days. Maybe these receivers are not very good, but I will be trying to install mine that way when then new radios come.

Yes I will add some info once installed.

I have two octa cores coming tomorrow but one is not a c500, will let you know how quick the camera boots up.
