Just installed a 4500NEX and this video is the most detailed walk-through I've found. Thank you for this.
You are awesome!! Clear concise. I have decided to purchase based on your detailed review. I will definitely watch other videos. Thanks for taking the time to help others. Great job!!!!
i actually ordered this headunit the other day and cant wait for it to arrive so i can install it. Great video btw, it helped reassure that i made a good choice.
Excellent video. Very detailed and straightforward. Everything I want in a head unit plus more.
Bro that was awesome you sold me on this unit I have a jvc with hdmi but it doesn't have android auto so I was looking to upgrade and dude you sold me on thus unit. I just ordered it
Wow very in-depth review 🔥
Thank you for the comprehensive video review. A+
Awesome video best that I have seen on this HU. Thank you.
Great Video Very Helpful.
VERY EDUCATIONAL!!!
THANK YOU!
@@akqjtn if there's more stuff to know you didn't cover, can you please make more videos on it?
Thanks for the video!!!
Great Unit....Never regret buying it. The only issue I have is that I wish I could do voice commands via the car microphone instead of the phone microphone when connected to Apple Carplay & Android Auto. My USB connection in routed to the glove box so I connect and keep my phone in there. In order to use Siri for example I have to take out the phone out the glove box so it can hear me
all of your videos are so detailed............dude keep it up!! what do you do for living? are u a teacher or something?
great video bro
I recently just installed this on my jeep. I bought 64gb sd card and filled it with music. when i placed it on the stereo it keeps saying it's not supported. is there specific sd card size that only works on stereo?
which of the AVH systems does front and back cameras. looking for a model that has both camera input and not go through the AV port.
I have ripped some of my cd's with CDEX to FLAC. So far, three of the albums work but one doesn't. No changes in settings. All on the same SD card. Re-ripped to mp3 and it played. Any ideas?
Nice brah!!
Im planning on getting the avh 4201, does it come with the park bypass or is that something i need to buy seperate where did you get yours
Great video. I am now considering buying a similar Pioneer`s stereo and I have concerned about the boot time of it. How long will it normally take to start up?
Hi!! Cool video... I decided to get this one after watching. I've install the latest firmware 1.07 and got this SD card "Lexar Professional 633X 64GB SDXC UHS-I" it says it not compatible. Do I need to format it in a specific way to be able to read it?
Did you keep the Alpine 445u in conjunction with the Pioneer or just us the amp builtin to the Pioneer
Comparing the stock head unit to the pioneer unit assuming you have the stock speakers, did you notice any difference in sound quality?
Im looking for and in dash DVD player that will allow the DVD to play on a rear monitor while driving and still allow android auto on the head unit with audio playing through the car stereo speakers appropriately, ie cut into the movie audio when navigation is needed. Any recomendations?
I'm curious how do you control that Nintendo controller through the screen are you using the Nintendo box that it comes with or do you just plug in the control into the back of the radio or do you have to use the Nintendo box and hook it up for your RCA's or is it just through HDMI
Can you access your serial number on the unit under settings? I have yet to install my unit because I'm waiting on my maestro rr module. Also my stereo serial number sticker is ripped off
I have mine using car play. I want to make the icons smaller so I can use all my apps from the screen. Is there a way?
Does this model support wireless connection (bluetooth) to enable Android Auto? Thanks a lot.
awesome!!!! thanks, partner you are very informed! and straight forward! how do I update the firmware? thanks.
Do I need that parking break bypass or only if u want to watch movies while driving?
What cords are u using for the s9 connection?
The title of this video is AVH-4200 NEX but at 16:48 your showing a box for a AVH-4201 NEX which explains the slightly different menus.
So which deck are you reviewing?
Were do I get a power cord for 4200nex
What kind of phone mount are you using?
does it have a loudness button?
Can you use a aux cord with that stereo?
Will this work with the HKS??
On Android it says UA-cam music anyway to watch music videos? I got my parking break wired to the ground already
i have version 1.10 is there anything newer than that?
Curious why you didn't retain the USB that's in the center console? I made that one Apple carplay... to finish out your system you might want to look into the idatalink SU2 harness they recently-released for all vehicle.. I'm sure you'll do your research and find out what's the benefit of the harness
Nevermind you answer some of my question as I continue watching the whole video.... my car had a single USB in the center console
What kind of phone mount is that?
Does anyone know exactly what port works for iPhone? Top or Bottom?
Can you use car play with just Bluetooth?
I have a ?. Do you know how to mirror with an Android. I can mirror my gf's apple, with a $50 hdmi adapter for the lightning cable. However, when i try the same with my Android, it does not work. It also didn't give me the hdmi option in the smart phone section.
Were you able to Update the Firmware using the Extension USB Cable then? I'm kind of worried I'll have to update the unit before I have it installed.
Intuitively, I thought that you could use BOTH USB ports simultaneously, and yes, yes you can. It's kind of dumb they don't advertise this and only give you one adapter in the kit, however knowing this, I went out and got a second Male-Female USB adapter and hooked it up with the AndroidAuto connector.
Right now it's got a 128GB SDXC Card with 90 GB of music loaded onto it, few notes about that:
1. It took at least 2 HOURS for the Pioneer unit to scan and read all of the songs and the metadata and store it to memory.
2. The audio sounds very glitched while it is loading this data into memory, the other functions are lagged as well because of this. Understandable anyway that the processor is very busy and is a bit bottle-necked at the moment.
3. Once the drive hit 100% read, everything stabilized functions and all.
The other USB (I-Pod) is my dedicated Movie and Video storage @ 64 GB, NTFS Format with 54 GB of Mostly 1080p MP4 files with AAC/AC3 Audio Format.
Videos load instantly and luckily this dive did not take forever to store the metadata in its memory.
Finally my main USB (AndroidAuto) smooth as butter when switching through the different A/V modes, however it gets bugged out at times when switching between sources and the screen keeps saying there's something wrong with my phones end of the bargain so I have to reset the phone connection.
Either way, the unit is very intuitive with it's design and I am incredibly satisfied with it.
As far as the Firmware goes, the unit came pre-loaded with Version 1.06 (1.07 Is most current).
Does it support spotify
So what exactly will the bypass help with? I'm just scared that the bypass won't work after a certain amount of time and I won't be able to use Android Auto. I don't mind hooking it up to the parking brake.
@@akqjtn okay good. Thanks for the reply, I just don't want the bypass to fail in like 2-3 months and I can't use anything because I didn't hook it up to the parking brake. I'm gonna have it installed tomorrow hopefully.
May be a dumb question but I’m pretty new to stereo installs. But will this not work with the the stock Subaru Mic and will it work won’t he steering wheel controls?
Boost & Shutter awesome! Thank you sir! One other question, i saw your video about the infotainment HU, if you had your same set up, just didn’t swap out the infotainment HU with the pioneer, it still made it sound better?
This unit is awesome. i actually took it out and got the 4400....after using that and the 4200 i advise to pick up the 4200. its cheaper and does the same things.
does this do both cameras? front and back?
@@calabashauthentic6913 yes
how much did you get the 4200 for ?
Can you watch youtube video using androidauto?
Do you know how much this costs new?
Do I need to install an amplifier if I upgrade the head unit but don't change the speakers
You don't have to but I would recommend it. I ran the 4200 for over a year with no amp. I added an amp about two months ago and it's significantly better sounding.
Are you from Tondawanda ny?
One more question. Can you use apple Car play with bluetooth
@@akqjtn i just got the 2440 also highly recommended over 2018 or 2019 models same screen as yours i believe, hd radio, mastro, lower controls, tilt screen, in 2018 they took these features away unless you pay $899 list- sale $499 11/19- i paid $299 a steal - click my icon pic. for video
i thought changing my ford double unit to pioneer nex4200 would put my uber on screen that did not happen
Nice review, does it ever happen thatwhen you cinnect androind auto you get a black screen with a message for a split second stating to use the hand brake and then it disappears and it works fine. I installed the micro bypass but i always get that message for a split second everytime i connect the android auto
Here's a tip: upgrade the firmware before installing the bypass. Some firmware udates will cancel out your bypass.
what do you mean by that? I just installed a 4200nex with a micro bypass and its not working. it needs an update but what do you mean by "upgrade it first"??
@@rangerprerunner Upgrade the firmware 1st right out of the box before installation of anything.
If your bypass is not working, watch this video:

My radio is on firmware 1.10
Have Spotify?
