I love how Ford removed Blue Cruise from my login page on my truck. For me its still dishonest. I expected to have it by now and I bought mine in March. By the time I get it, it will be a year old and that's 1 year I could of used it. I sure hope they through in a free year at least. (I was...
You have to forget the network on your phone. Then go in to Sync and forget your phone. Then delete the bluetooth pairing on your phone. When you repair it make sure it is on low data mode. Also reboot your phone after removing it.
This is normal. The Wireless Apple car play is using the wifi to stream apple car play to you screen. Data comes from your cell service. It should be on low data as there is no data (data as internet) on that. Its like a 2nd SSID on the trucks wifi. All the data is used to steam Carplay. Notice...
I was told from my research that the version of Apple car play on the head unit could be the issue. Older versions had this echo issue, VW's had this problem. I cant test that. What I can tell you is I had a 2019 Ford Ranger with this exact phone and zero issues.
I got something like that...
I turned my volume down to the point I could barely hear ( number 4). Nope still has echo. I had to park and turn off ac to even hear my call.
I even covered the mic and he still had feedback.
Next test I called a person. They confirmed an echo. I didnt touch anything except hung up and call...
Thank you. That gives me something to test. I do have the volume up on the person I am talking to. I like it loud so I dont miss something.
Edit:
(I owe you a beer if this works lol)
I am having and issue randomly when I am on the phone. I am using Wireless CarPlay and the person hears an echo of themselves (I dont hear anything, only they hear on their end). It's 1 out of 4 calls. I have repaired the bluetooth and no luck. I have an iPhone 12 pro max.
Also while there is...
I am guessing you are talking about Navigation. Bread crumbs leaves dots on the map when you are off roading so you can find your way back. Hansel and Gretel story with bread crumbs to find their way back out of the forest.
Your phone can only be connected to one WiFi at a time. So if you need internet your phone need cell service plan. The projector one is not supposed to provide internet.
On iOS it automatically knows the Wifi in not for data. Then switches to Cell, then keeps the wifi connected to the projector...
So the trucks wifi for Android Auto\Apple Carplay is not the same as the Wifi for internet. You are connecting to the stereo and using wifi direct for displaying your screen. You need your normal mobile connection (Cell service) for data. Sorry trying to make it simple to explain. Message me...
Everything I said can be done. The hardware is there. Ford would just have to do an OTA and add the icon. They already have theme's built in, for example when you change drive modes.
The camera one might require some work.
Just thinking it would be nice if Ford came out with an Dedicated Ford App Store. You could have Theme's, apps, etc. Like a Rapter theme where instead of a black background on the Lariat Speedometer screen, you would have some off road scene with custom gagues. Maybe another theme with a wood...
I use wireless apple CarPlay every day. No issues for the most part. I just got my truck 3 weeks ago. The other day I had a doctors appointment and had to drive about 45 minutes each way. As I was approaching a Power substation, it dropped completely. It froze and this showed the phone...
Those are the ones I got from the same seller. The Square one did not have a cover to match the black ring. So do you just deal with the chrome on it? I was hoping for a black cover so the whole ring around the outside is black.
I ordered then but on the front I have the two cut outs. One for camera and one for (dont know). The issue is the cover plate on my current is chrome and the new one is a black frame with a missing black cover. Am I missing something. Also I am talking about the square hole to the right of the...
