Just use the public charger. It is not as scary as it seems.

I have added the fitcamx app to the carlinkit and it works fine. The only problem is that you have to use the WiFi connection.

How long would you estimate that you spent charging the vehicle on your wonderful journey. I calculate at approx. 40 mins ea. Total of about 24hrs charging. What did you do during that time? I am not criticizing, just curious how one would spend that time.

Another one that won't run is myQ. I think it is because the device is rooted.

Lately I have been getting the feeling that I am still moving after I have stopped. It is like the sensation you get when riding in the back of a vehicle looking towards the back after stopping. This only happens when using one pedal. I think my brain is playing tricks on me. :crackup:

First of all I hope you are heeding the first warning to put the car in park. My CarLinit did not work as an android device, As soon as I switched over to Car Play it worked. There are some things I noticed. My phone would connect as android auto before the car play device would connect, so I...

Here is page one of the apps I have with my CarLinkit device, set up in Car Play mode.

Finally got back to this. I switched the device to run as a Car Play device and it booted right up. I think if I switch it back to Android Auto it might work in that mode too. I am not sure if one is better than the other. At first glance it appears to be about the same to me. I was able to get...

Another thing. MAC addresses are supposed to be a unique identifier to the whole world. It costs manufacturers a lot of money to get those unique ID's. Maybe ford is saving money and just generating their own numbers. Maybe you got one that matched another device or the other way around the...

or is it so bad that they have left doors open so that some entity can exploit the device. There are so many devices with poorly written software that are able to be used for nefarious reasons.

Well aren't you special.. I am really jealous. I would like to have 2 even though my wife would not drive the other one.

Exactly, they should be using JSON or XML. It is crazy to use such a cryptic method.
