One more note: The microphone that comes with it is very poor quality. Please see the link in the description for an upgraded model. Also, watch the last video! It will help a ton.

I was able to update the firmware after 20 or so attempts powering off and on with the head units power cable. My final attempt where I saw success was after driving around my block for a few minutes then parking and trying again without powering off. I’m unsure if that’s the trick but it started working and then I followed the remaining steps provided in the video. Also, the rear view camera works perfectly for my truck which used the same pin out mentioned.

Thank you for your videos on this. I just purchased it as well. I originally purchased one from ebay and ended up returning it, as i just couldnt get it working correctly. Hoping this one will do the trick, based on your feedback.

Hi Your settings really helped for the sound quality. Where do you download the firmware to update?

I just took mine out after a month of use, I couldn’t get past the backup camera low quality and the sound was really off on all music, it’s not a bad radio for the price I’m just really a picky person lol

Dude great video. About to buy the same radio for my 15 2500. For the same reason. No need to spend over a grand when I'm not building a custom system. Just want Android auto for the maps when I travel. We pull a camper from time to time and take decent road trips. Thanks again

2018 Tradesman with rearview mirror camera display. Infotainment has a splice cable for lazy people like me. that is super simple. Thanks for the video. I had the most basic radio that wouldn't even connect to my phone....this is a game changer for me.

I have a similar one to this that I got off Amazon. How do you mirror your phone? I can’t for the life of me figure it out.

Thanks for the review and update, great info. Does the USB keep your phone adequately charged while driving?
