Thank you for covering the Wireless mirroring function! so many videos just breeze over it and I feel like that's one of the coolest features? Well done!
I love mine! It's really a great head unit for movies and music. But I never thought about using Dex, so thank you for showing me that. I just screen mirroring in the widget section
Looks great but think I'm going with Kenwood Excelon Reference DNR1007XR just because it has Navigation with Garmin and 3 year free update and free 5 years of Traffic updates and will work off road with no data connection. Liked the video.
Yes if you need GPS this is not the unit for you. I use android auto so it did not really matter to me, but the radio you referenced is a great unit as well
Why? That's useless to me. Use the phone as it has the apps of Google maps and waze already native. Why would anyone need GPS anymore in the year 2024. Everyones phone already has GPS maps.
@@TheYoungerSemiOldManI do food delivery full-time and android auto screws up my Doordash/Uber apps. I never used android auto on my last car but having a separate navigation on the Telsa was very handy.
Did you get the Kenwood 1007? Do you like it? I want a unit I can have 4 cameras with and watch youtube/netflix ect. I can't believe Kenwood hasn't updated their unit tobe faster. Not sure where to buy it and have it installed. I was looking at Cartoys but not sure if they are the best choice
there is an ORANGE wire in the factory harness somewhere. I tapped into that and wired directly to the Kenwood radio harness. Its labeled on the radio one. It dims the Kenwood when you turn the lights on but not allot. Check with a 12v tester. it literally only is 12v when the lights are on. I played around till i found it.
You could use smart view I suppose just always used dex. And no climate control was not available via the radio I had to use the cars controls. Loved that radio someone ran a red light while I had a green left turn arrow and totalled my camry, I bout a 2018 accord touring and the radio won't work with new car sucks
STOP: You SIR, are owed a beer or teo by me. No BS. After hours and hoirs of videos, not even kenwood themselves on their own youtube page, or anyone else, explained ANYTHING like you didm bro, i was furious after paying for the same exact model, all the installation, taking my amps and subs from my other truck i sold into the newer truck. And all of a sudden, here comes the regular guy, with no billion followers, smashes the competition with a video thats actually informative. Then the samsung phone, youre a blessing man. All the other videos they are using galaxy 2s or galazy 4s. Like that garbage is outdate crap and the video were so crappy, it was beyong irritating. You won the day by simply saying SAMSUNG DEX!!!!! I was able to connect in 30sec. After hours of stupid kenwood apps that are garbage. I have a few questions for you. 1) how did you get the specs onnthe car, air, etc? Was this something your previous head unit already had? I dont think my truck has that. The only way i got all that was a previous programmer for Ford but doesnt work on Toyota trucks. How do i get the a/c amd all that? 2) The unit versus stock with aftermarket speakers. You are def right. I brought my factory JBLs to life. The tweeters, subs, mids, are all customizable with this. I seriously have a SOLID system now. Nothijg sloppy. Everything is stealth hidden, etc. I also added an amp for mids/trebles, then also another amp for the subs. The factory JBL 8" sub and amp are garbage. When i get rid of this truck, im taking all this crap with me.
Wow thank you, I truly thought this video was not my best. But I am glad it helped you as I went through so much of the crap apps to try and make this work. As to your question... My ac/heat controls were just available to be programed on the module. I think that each cars.options/features just vary. As to.sound quality yes this unit brings to life a So so sound system. Thanks for leaving such a nice comment to a video I was not the proudest of Have great day
@THEMANCAVE2023 questions for you as this is irritating as hell. With samsung dex, how do you make your make your icons larger? How so you change UA-cam as it's tiny when open and makes the ads giant that cover the entire page? Then a few tiny videos amd then huge ads? I saw it for the first time yesterday, like youre where the size is normal Then today, out of nowhere its back to normal with tiny UA-cam vida with giant ads
Thank you for covering the Wireless mirroring function! so many videos just breeze over it and I feel like that's one of the coolest features? Well done!
Your welcome thank.you for the kind comment
Bro you can literally watch your fire stick on these units.
I love mine! It's really a great head unit for movies and music. But I never thought about using Dex, so thank you for showing me that. I just screen mirroring in the widget section
Most welcome mN
Hook your fire stick to this.
How in the hell were you able to get it to work without Dex? All the kenwood garbage are crap.
Hows it holding up so far ? would you purchase again any issues ?
Yes I absolutely love the radio and yes dollar for dollar it was a great purchase
Wow that's a lot of features! Great video! I always share your videos because they are interesting and full of info. Thanks!❤
Do you have to click agree every time the screen turns on?
It will time out but always pop up for liability reasons all units do this
@@THEMANCAVE2023… ok thank you! I’m considering picking this up for my vehicle. Though I’m nervous about theft, is this still a thing with car radios?
How does it work with your factory 360 camera?
Works well. Its the most I've ever spent on a head unit and it's worth every penny imho
How did you modify the plugin ports to add the hdmi? I picked up the kenwood hdmi cord but need a port adapter now.
I did not use any hdmi for my setup

For the tire pressure, etc. did you have to install a Maestro unit? Or is that all just from installing the radio head unit only?
Mastero u it is required to integrate with vehicle ststems
Does your weather widget work, I was told by Kenwood they no longer support it?
It worked as of last Friday.
@@THEMANCAVE2023 interesting perhaps because I’m on a Apple device. Kenwood does offer wireless mirroring for Apple devices either.
@WFORacer I love love wireless mirror. I watch vudu and youtube daily
Weather doesn't work anymore 😡
I heard that music. You hood af!!! I dig it!
Lmao I am what I grew up in lol 😆 just make adult.money nowadays
@@THEMANCAVE2023 lol word
That's MAGA music.
@@bklynp718hell yeah. I had to stop the video to check out the song 😂
How long does it take bluetooth to connect to phone to play music , from turning on car?
Within 13-18 seconds id say
How did you get it to auto dimming? Mine won’t
The wiring changed In my car I had to call Kenwood support they found.me.the correct diagram

Like the Music Choice there sir!
Lol
What year make and model is your vehicle
21 camrey se
Can you do this with the iPhone
To be honest I don't know. I've never owned an iPhone. But any android device can.
Sorry could not be more helpful
Sold getting one today like the mirrored feature with the Samsung dex
I use dex everyday with it watch top gun maverick going down i95 yesterday wonderful unit and great resolution for a car media center
What's the difference between the kenwood dmx 1037s dmx 1057 and dnr 1007r
@Maxwellp100 1037 1 year warranty 1057 2 year warranty only difference. Not familiar with your 3rd unit
Hey dude Shout out to your choice of music. And that's too bad you couldn't play Tyson James because of copyrights. God Bless you thanks for the video
Thanks
Instead of using dex why not just use Samsung smart view? Also you mentioned one feature climate control does ot work for your Camry? Thanks
You could use smart view I suppose just always used dex. And no climate control was not available via the radio I had to use the cars controls. Loved that radio someone ran a red light while I had a green left turn arrow and totalled my camry, I bout a 2018 accord touring and the radio won't work with new car sucks
@@THEMANCAVE2023 sell it to me
Why can't I get the Samsung dex not available anymore
Dex is available for windows 10/11 and is baked into phone. When you connect to.the stero
How do I get DEX to work. I can't find it on my phone.
Did you bypass the E-brake by chance?
Yes sure did bypassed park brake just have to jump a ground wire
How's the space between the screen and your climate control knobs it looks tight
With my screen set were it is it's actually nice. If you have it tilled full vertical it would slightly impead screen but not control.knobs
Ah I didn't realize the screen tilted. Thanks for the info. Can't wait to get one, this was my biggest worry

I have a few questions for you.
1) how did you get the specs onnthe car, air, etc? Was this something your previous head unit already had? I dont think my truck has that. The only way i got all that was a previous programmer for Ford but doesnt work on Toyota trucks. How do i get the a/c amd all that?
2) The unit versus stock with aftermarket speakers. You are def right. I brought my factory JBLs to life. The tweeters, subs, mids, are all customizable with this. I seriously have a SOLID system now. Nothijg sloppy. Everything is stealth hidden, etc. I also added an amp for mids/trebles, then also another amp for the subs. The factory JBL 8" sub and amp are garbage. When i get rid of this truck, im taking all this crap with me.
Wow thank you, I truly thought this video was not my best. But I am glad it helped you as I went through so much of the crap apps to try and make this work.
As to your question... My ac/heat controls were just available to be programed on the module. I think that each cars.options/features just vary.
As to.sound quality yes this unit brings to life a So so sound system.
Thanks for leaving such a nice comment to a video I was not the proudest of
Have great day

How to set up gps
Does not have built in GPS use android auto or Apple maps
Seems like Smart View on your Samsung phone would work better.
You could use that as well
