Activate Android Auto/Car Play on 2016 Mercedes-Benz A Class
Here's how I was able to activate Android Auto on my 2016 Mercedes-Benz A 220d (w176). The same instructions can also be used to activate Apple Car Play.
When I first got the vehicle, I was quite disappointed that it didn't come with Android Auto, and I had planned to update the head unit to one of those 10" Android displays. Luckily I stumbled upon some additional settings that I hadn't seen before while trying to figure out something else, and to my delight, Android Auto could actually be activated and works great!

VW Caddy 1.6L Diesel - First Start
Переглядів 3913 роки тому
This is the first time starting the engine after putting it back in. It's been five years since it has run. I stopped the video early because I noticed the oil pressure was at 95 psi! I need to figure out what the issue is there before I try starting it again. Also, it was probably so rough because I forgot to push back in the cold start cable.

Installing Gentoo Linux - Complete Guide
Переглядів 147 тис.12 років тому
This is a step by step guide showing how to install Gentoo Linux. This tutorial targets AMD64 machines, but you will perform essentially the same steps if your processor has a different architecture. This was installed on a VM in VirtualBox, the software I used to record this was gtk-recordMyDesktop, and I used Pitivi to edit and render the video.

    hello I recommend you be very careful with this method, there are different versions of the radio software, mine also turned out to be with an error. If the manufacturer did not enable this option, it means that it does not work well. I have android auto, but I lost my voice in phone calls via bluetooth, not reversible. I am still trying to fix this problem. My version with a manufacturer error SW:A1769024100/001/14/51.10 from 25.05.2016. Please be careful

    I have set the setting and rebooted. The AMG logo showed up. But still i see neither Android Auto nor Apple CarPlay. When having my Android Phone connected, it also doesn't recognize the car for Android Auto usage. Im using the right usb port and have connected it both via cable and bluetooth. Also i've noticed that after the reboot, the Remote UI Services, CarPlay via USB and Automotive Link via USB are all turned off again. Was anybody able to resolve this? (Mercedes A W176 2016) Thank you!

    Pause the video at 1.56. at the bottom of the infotainment screen where it says android auto drive levels, make sure you match those numbers or this won't work. You can do it by highlighting the boxes and enter the numbers with the car keypad then set page and you're good to go.

    I would appreciate if someone advice or guide, I went into the engineering mode and activated carplay since my car is equipped with it. But as soon as I save and exit to go reboot the system I can see that the option is back to off and for as much as I keep toggling the option back on as soon as I leave the page it goes back so the carplay option never shows on my screen when I connect my phone.
