I like the round look better than the way it fills the vertical screen....but, still not bad. My favorite launcher so far. I'm still trying some different colors and a few tweaks.

Sorry guys I know it's been a while since I have been on, but my wife had minor brain surgery! She is doing good, but haven't been able to get on! I have a problem I hope y'all can help me with? I switched back to my Samsung Galaxy S8+ and when I connect Android auto using my carlinkit dongle it puts it in widescreen and it's small! Is their anyway to make it bigger? On my iPhone is was much bigger and filled the middle part of the screen! Thanks in advance for your help!7689e6f25d63fe69a46557258e3040cd.jpg

Unfortunately, the screen is supposed to be that way. Google has not yet optimized the app display for portrait layouts in AA.

You can get a slightly larger layout by opening the AutoKit app without your phone plugged in and entering settings.

The very first option should have 3 choices (compatible, fluency, and speed I think). Cycle through those, exiting settings after each change and plugging in your phone to see what looks best.

Godspeed to your wife...

Thanks for the reply! I will try that! You would think they would give you options being every car radio is a different size!

Does anybody know if their is any update for the Phoenix Android radio 7.1 head unit and mcu upgrade! I tried contacting Phoenix before my warranty ran out and they kept giving me the run-around and now they want even return my messages. Just having a few issues and hoped the update might fix it.50a00693a23ebdb384d20764f47ae4ac.jpg

You have a 3-button. Best to get it from Phoenix unfortunately.

I sent them two messages on their Facebook messenger but they have not responded! It shows where they got it but they are not responding! As much as I love my Samsung s8+ I can't get it to connect to Android auto! The website says it might be the cable! It worked the first couple times but now it won't connect! It shows charging and connected as file transfer but that's it! My iPhone connects right up and has the bigger screen with car play! I thought about trying the phone link feature but the app won't open! I have been super disappointed with Phoenix Android Radio!

Has anyone else installed the Agama Car Launcher Pro app? After I installed it, everything seems to work fine with the exception of the built-in equalizer that comes with these radios. The "classic" and "pop" buttons show the equalizer as a straight line. The "rock", "hall" and "cinema" buttons don't work at all now. They actually turn black when you tap the button. I asked Linkswell about it and they said "the app launcher has taken over the EQ settings"....but didn't really offer any suggestions. I haven't tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app yet... Just curious if anyone here is using this launcher and you're having the same issue? Also, is the "DSP Delay" button on the bottom right normal? Not sure I remember that button before...

Just joined the forum and this is a huge thread... by the way I work at Linkswell, and we do check forums like this all the time for feedback.

From what I've read y'all have been so deep into the research of how these big-screen PX based Radios work and I'm super impressed. You guys are basically taking my job as Tech Support.

Sitkneelbend has been our support he is amazing.

Thanks for joining and maybe you can help us solve some of the unknown mysteries of this radio. Each person who buys one seems to have a slightly unique issue.
