  1. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    Hello, Unfortunately, I know nothing about the Alpine system or the Teyes head unit. I would imagine they all have similar wiring. I assume by sub you mean the subwoofers? I never played around with the speakers directly and just kept all of the speaker wirings the same. There is quite a bit of...
  2. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    As some have indicated in previous posts in this thread the fit is “snug” and takes some patience to get it properly set but it does fit even with various items that need to also be placed behind the head unit such as the canbus box. The bezel and head unit are all one piece, so yes it does come...
  3. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    I don’t believe it has temperature controls but that is an assumption on my part. I have a JLUS stock so I have knobs to control the temperature. I do know that when I adjust the temperature that the head unit displays i formation like what the fan settings are and the temperature. I would try...
  4. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    Just re-read your post and got me thinking about the comment about steering wheel input. I will have to pay more attention to that, but I think you are correct. Wondering if that is something I could get back somehow. I know the radio unit comes with a canbus box so I don't know why that would...
  5. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    The only thing I bought from Teyes was the adapter that Phoenix Automotive apparently forgot to account for. I followed the explanation that was provided in this thread (UNC) who installed the adapted as well, so I used the CVSB RCS and not the AHD RCA connection. Took me a little bit to think...
  6. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    I never took a pic of the original 5". Looks fine to me though. I suppose that it just comes down to personal preference and opinion. Sorry I can't be of more help.
  7. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    Well ... SOB. Finally all works. Thanks again for all the help to everyone that responded to this thread!!
  8. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    Thank you for the info share. Very much appreciated. Once I get the adapter in my hands I'll be coming back to this for help. Will be great to get this finally taken care of.
  9. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    This makes me so friggin happy!! Thanks for sharing the info!! I actually went and ordered one two days ago just cuz I am sick of waiting and it looked to be very promising. do you happen to have any pictures the install wiring? Not entirely sure what is meant by G1 and G3. Assuming G means...
  10. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    Thinking more about how to wire up the adapter for power I am guessing there are a couple of easy options, at least. Splice into the power for the cigarette lighter port as I have read that is a common ting to do. Or perhaps just creating a USB power cable by creating your own like this page is...
  11. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    Well .... SOB! That’s pretty cool! Any idea as to when you will get it and give it a try? At this point I’m ready to just get this figured out. Been pinging Phoenix Automotive for a while vis their ticket system. They are responsive but so far ... useless. ‍♂️ One question in looking at the...
  12. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    From what I am understanding, yes that is the case with these head units compared to the stock head units. I started going down the same path as you to see how I could essentially get the existing female fakra camera cable to marry up with the female RCA cable in the Android head unit. I think I...
  13. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    I have noticed that there are fakra to coax adapters and then coax to hdmi converters. Probably be a hot mess of asetup but wondering if that would actually even work. Also, the signal loss could be an issue as well.
  14. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    Thank you for the info. I was looking at a few youtube videos, but most were for the JK, so not really sure if that will apply to my JLUS. I kind of figure the tech support call will be a total bust but I am going to go through the dog and pony show anyway. The way I see it I have a couple of...
  15. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    What about another adapter to convert fakra to hdmi and then take the hdmi into the converter? Where are you finding these other hdmi converters? I’d like to dig into this a bit more.
  16. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    Where did you find that image? Just curious how you tracked down the part number for the adapater. Thanks!
  17. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    Thanks for the post and sharing the info! I read through a good chunk of the post that you supplied a link to. Ugh. Well ... after @UNC figured out the bit about the digi-to-analog and that adapter would be the only way to get it to work, I had my suspicions that this was going to be a no go. I...
  18. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    i called ADV just now and the salesman told me that a person can only get the adapter with the radio, meaning they will not sell the adapter separately. Bummer. In other news, the Phoenix tech support failed to call me back ... shocker (not really) ... but kudos to customer support who called...
  19. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    Here's another FAT CHANCE thought. If tech support tells me that I do need some other piece to this puzzle, I am going to ask them to pay for the item and ship it to me. I know ... you can stop laughing now ... but hey ... they said the back-up camera will work w/o any additional pieces. So ...
  20. Upgrade of UConnect 3 5" to Phoenix Automotive 9" Octa-Core Android Navigation Radio

    Hmm, analog vs. digital. That makes total sense. I called Phoenix, actually got in touch with someone and have a tech support person calling me back today. So, we'll see what they say. I also noticed a small, illegible, blurb at the end of that article link I last posted: "Connection: When...
