    Phoenix Android Audio retains Sync 3

    I messaged them on WhatsApp again this afternoon and sent an email about my RMA and finally got a response to both late this evening with an RMA #.

    Phoenix Android Audio retains Sync 3

    Good luck with this company guys... I've been trying to get an RMA to return my unit and can't seem to get a response. I requested the RMA through their website and tried them on WhatsApp and have yet to get any response from when I started this on Tuesday. I had also previously sent an email...

    Lol, you couldn't be more wrong... I despise Apple products for how locked down they are and how hard they work to limit what you can customize on them. My kids use iPhones and Macs because that's just "the cool" thing to have for them, but that's the closest level of ownership I'll ever have...

    Sorry I stepped away for a few days from commenting on this thread... I've tried to get over the issues I have with this thing by living with it for another week or so and have taken a few long trips and used it around town a bunch, but I've decided it's just not worth it and I'm done trying so...

    Yes, my unit is up to date as of yesterday or the day before... as for the unit not being a productivity device, that's exactly what it is, yet it's been crippled and stripped of most of the features that I wanted from it. I started looking at these when the Gen 1/2 came out, but wasn't willing...

    Phoenix Android Audio retains Sync 3

    I've got a little more playing around to do today, and I'll be taking a longish trip with it tonight, but I'm pretty sure mine is coming out and getting sent back. Here's a more comprehensive list of my gripes that I've found so far: 1) The tablet is very sluggish compared to my 2 year old LG...

    Phoenix Android Audio retains Sync 3

    The cameras come up a bit larger than they did stock, and the backup sensors have a much larger display underneath the camera view as well. It seems to take slightly longer than stock for them to appear though. I messed around with mine a bit more tonight and have realized that I'm not getting...

    Yours is not quite fit to the screen either if you see the black space on either side of the SYNC display. Do you have factory nav? If so, go to your home screen and see if it isn't blurry when it's showing only on the left side of the screen. My old display was always crystal clear before, not...

    I just used FORScan and changed my APIM back to the default theme and there's no real change in image quality to the Console screen. It "looks" a little bit better at first glance because the colors are more basic, but it's still not being scaled and fit to the screen properly and is blurry when...

    It took me a couple of tries to get it to work for both updates. Try using the other USB cable, and try rebooting the unit as well. When you click the Simple Upgrade button you should have a status line appear on the screen and it should update pretty quickly (less than a minute).

    Yes, I used the 2nd link that was posted. I'm currently running the blue SYNC3 theme via FORScan and it was suggested to try the stock theme to see if it acts the same way so I'll give that a try today and report back. They appear whenever the truck and gauges are in the lower half of the...

    Phoenix Android Audio retains Sync 3

    For anyone here that already has the new Gen3 installed, how does your Sync pass through (Console) look? Mine looks like crap... It doesn't quite fit the screen fully and looks to be getting rescaled, causing it to be slightly smaller and a bit blurry. It's really an eyesore... Also, I...
