Picked up this dope android head unit for my burban

[TrybalRage]

I installed the same type of unit, probably made by the same factory in china but under a different brand on Amazon. I had a few issues installing - the plugs didn't actually match the factory wiring, and their support said 'just force them together' lol. I did, but got a terrible electronic noise through the speakers until I switched some of the plugs up, now it's great. Also, the back up camera they provided did not work at all - I am using the stock camera but I wanted to see if theirs had a better picture. Also it does not work with the rear seat entertainment, they offered to send some sort of adapter but I didn't want to deal with them anymore.

Since I got the kinks worked out, I've been using it for the past 4 months or so. Great sound, the carplay is a bit finicky to connect sometimes but hell so is my wife's '22 Jeep. I just unplug and replug the USB a few times and it will usually start working.

My experience with those inexpensive (not cheap) android head units (HU) you get on Amazon has been great. About 4 years ago I stuffed a $98, 9 inch touch screen android HU I got on Amazon in my 02 Silverado. The HU drives four door speakers and has NAV, WiFi, BT, CarPlay, and backup camera. I added a RCA connected pioneer amp and 12 inch sub under the back seat. I have about 700 songs on a flash drive that I play through the HU using BlackPlayer music app. I haven't had any issues on it so far, Knock on wood (1960s slang).

I have to add...since my android HU has no moving parts it should last (like an old tablet computer). Heat is the biggest killer of a well built android computer. I live in the midwest so no extreme temperatures (knock on wood again).

We're you able to get this installed and if so do you have any pictures or videos (along with an update on how well it's been working) that you can share?

I'm also curious as to how this turned out. I just bought an 07 yukon denali and the factory hu is killing me slowly. I found this dealy on ebay and just don't know if it works with the factory nav/bose unit.

I'm thinking I can pick up that unit and get all the corrisponding harness adapters (I.e. The rear entertainment, backup cam, swc, I don't use on* and don't forsee ever using it... Any other I need?
