[airbornetex]

May I ask why you removed it? Prepping for the Raxiom?

My OCD got the better of me-

I wanted my Time and Temperature back- I will eventually get a Pioneer or something of that nature-
My Sound System is top notch- as is-

P.S.
its off to another beautiful mustang-

Thanks to ALL on this forum- Talk about a good Group of Gals and Guys-

Yeah I just turned my temp display off, and although annoying as hell...I manually adjust my time every time I start the car. I'm still ok with this as it only takes about 10 seconds, and the navigation alone is worth the cost, but I can understand how it would frustrate others.

Off topic but my next big project will be my audio. I really just want to replace the stock speakers and then amp them. Not sure if a 4-channel amp is the way to go and I can get by with the stock tweeters, or if I need a 6-channel amp and replace the tweeters also. At this point I don't want to add a sub. I know I'm in the minority here but I can get enough bass by using the equalizer from my phone (when I stream bluetooth). Honestly I'm lost in what I need to do. The 90's and 00's cars were so much easier to work on.

Off Topic- I went with a 4-channel High Power MOSFET Amplifier(600W max)-with 2-Way Components-

I can play videos and change the star up picture on mine.

Video is here on how it looks. https://www.facebook.com/sulside/videos/g.744040028974741/955703641180509/?type=2&theater

How did you change the pic on the startup screen?

 

[SULSIDE]

I will post a video or do you guys just want me to do a write up ? LOL

 

[tazor]

both

 

[SULSIDE]

ok, uploading the video as we speak. just made it on my break from work.

 

[SULSIDE]

Alright fellow Tomtop users... here is a video I made showing you how to use the video feature and how to change the start up screen wallpaper

Do at your own risk..... Messing with the system might cause it not work properly and by changing the Start up image you will lose the default one.

Nice Work!!
wondering if the documents and settings button will change the time and temp?

 

[Mulestang]

Nice video. Unless I'm confused, I think my screen goes blank when I select video.

Hell yeah! Thanks a ton. Have you figured out screen mirroring? I want to mirror my phone, but I dont know what I need or how to do it.

buy a wifi mirror device, connect the rca cables to the head unit and pair your cell phone to the wifi. open the app to allow mirror on the cell phone.

should be easy
