I bought a iDoing unit because of this video. I just installed it and realized the front speakers didn't work. Then I ran into your solution in a subie forum mentioning the telematics. You saved me from splicing any wires. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
Just installed this one in my WRX. Mine came with totally different UI’s than the ones you showed. Something to keep in mind for people wanting to upgrade. I guess it’s luck of the draw? I don’t mind since I’ll be using CarPlay 99% of the time lol
Do also remember, he said he's had that unit for almost 3 years, which would be about 5 now. It isn't very unusual that in that length of time, they changed their options. But, I'd love to hear your opinions on it so far, as I am really considering buying one for my '04 WRX
Thank you for this video. You're (wittingly or not) one of the ONLY guys who shows the RADIO app long enough to see if the RDS/RadioTXT feature actually is USABLE. (which on this unit, it clearly is, and this is very important to a lot of people -they only realise this after buying- and most (all) companies are pretty dodgy when it comes to answering questions regarding RDS/RadioTXT.
Thanks Chris, i bought this headunit because of you. Love it. Had some problems with carplay here and there, won't seem to connect when my phone battery is low, but when its above 20% it connects fine. Otherwise, really love the carplay. Keep up with these nice quality videos :)
Hmm that is strange! Definitely some random issues I’ve heard. Fortunately, I haven’t had any issues with mine. Is the cable you are using brand new Apple supplied cord?
this is a great explanation of the features of this head unit. Good looking out. I am going to do some more research because mine did not come with the "z link" app installed
@Scoobyfreak86 what are your thoughts on the Kicker speaker upgrade? I justified the purchase of this headunit because it'll increase the power of whatever speakers I have. Debating between the OEM Kicker upgrade vs aftermarket units.
Is there a way to customize the Home Screen? I have the same options as you do for the Home Screen and looks completely different. Also having an issue with Apple CarPlay to work
it looks a little more awkward on camera than it does in person. It flows very nicely and you don't even notice how it sits. In fact, I actually prefer it this way as it is closer to the driver. I felt the stock unit was very flat and not driver focused. I wrapped the silver trim in gloss black.
This head unit looks amazing thanks for the videos.. I’m wanting to order this soon? Any feed back on the options it gives you?? Like the camera or the obd reader device? Just curious?
Hey Chris, nice vid as always. I was wondering, you have the Idoing and Dasaita head unit in your description. Which one are you using exactly? I'm thinking of changing my head unit soon.
I’ve seen a couple of this Android head units. I wrote to you about the subwoofer yesterday, thanks to your feedback, I bought the subwoofer & the head unit as well. But I bought through Seicane. I didn’t bought through AliExpress, they take extremely long times to deliver items.
What do you think about the Junsun head units? I’m thinking of getting one but I’m not so sure if Junsun is better than Idoing for the price because they are cheaper.
Hello. I have been thinking of changing the radio of my Sti 2020. How is the sound of this gone? I am not very demanding with this, as long as it sounds strong with a good bass, it would be fine. I have the Sti 2020 Limited, it comes with Hardam Kardon, I like the sound a lot and I do not want me to change the quality
I got this head unit based on your video, and for some reason, my AM radio doesn't work? FM seems OK (but not the strongest signal). I believe the 12V amp is not plugged in? Any idea?
hey man! my idoing headunit is on the way but i don't like the silver ac trim. how did you get yours black? thanks for the video by the way it convinced me to buy one myself! greetings from belgium!
Hey Chris, I saw in your video it looked like you were using your factory USB connection that is located in the center console. I've watched other videos on this head unit and they've said you won't we able to use your center console USB connection. So I was wondering how you were able to get that to work. Also, do you have to use a factory apple charging cable to use the Apple Car Play feature?
So I just installed, everything works great sound is great... the only thing I can not figure out is how to use WAZE via carplay while listening to radio? Is there a setting I am not seeing? Thanks!
Great video! Thanks so much for the review! Quick question - I have an HK 2018 Forester Limited. I think I hooked everything up correctly, but I'm getting a low/quiet hiss. Doesn't get louder or softer with the volume just constant anytime the unit is playing. Switching between sources or "turning off the amp" in the settings will stop the hiss briefly before starting again like when music is paused. Any thoughts? have you experience the same?
@@Scoobyfreak86 Thanks so much - will do! I isolated the problem - it's in the upper/windshield speakers in the front and the upper speakers in the backseat area. Both left and right do this front and back. The door subs in the front and the lower speakers in the backseat area.
@@Scoobyfreak86 I just messed with a lot of settings on the stereo and didn't cure it. It sounds like a static/grounding issue. I'll let you know what Idoing says.
So I just got mine installed today and noticed the same thing. There is an amp setting (I believe, not in my car at the moment but I can check tomorrow) that boosts your volume. If you have that maxed (I believe max is 60) it will hiss I think I set mine to 45 and don't notice it now. It might be in the developer options but can't confirm at the moment.
What would it take to use this with an inline amp...I do not have the hk I simply have the universal alpine inline for the door speakers and then I have my subwoofer
I purchased ownice 9 inch...i bought this had to send back because frame wasnt exact fit..then i realized i could buy frame and unit seperate...i have ownice with 6gb on purchase wondering if i try the idoing but already made purchase i guess i could cancel so im on fence.
Hello friend, how are you, I bought you a radio from aliexpress but I have problems with bluetooth, my phone does not connect, I have searched the internet and it is a recurring problem that has no solution, can you help me if not, how can I solve this problem?
what voltage does the headunit put out? consensus that android headunits are garbage for sound quality... anybody that upgrades the stock headunit is going to "sound better" because it sends more voltage to the speakers. but how much? trying to compare to the well known headunit manufactures in sound. and android headunits are usually less "plug and play"
Hey Chris! I saw the trajectory lines for reverse was a bit off from the center lines. It had like 2 different trajectories on it. Can you remove one to make it look like the stock reverse?
I know I changed this at some point, but it has been a while since I did it so it's escaping my memory at the moment. It's in the settings where you can turn them on/off and adjust.
Installed this radio... it's great, but about six months down the line, the radio doesn't work. Been fiddling with it. Only works now and then when I reset it... it's really annoying
Love your STI. Looks awesome. I have a question for you. Hope you can help me out. I just purchased a 2021 STI with Nav. If I still want to change my head unit to the one you have, will it fit? Do I need some mods to do for the Harman Kardon speakers. Any intel would be appreciated. Thx
Scoobyfreak86 yes Oem apply cable on USB 1, it’s still finicky at times. I talked to some people at IDoing and they told me they enabled CarPlay wirelessly but no luck on that either
@@Scoobyfreak86 oh man if you can find that link for me or point me in the right direction I would be eternally grateful. Lol I been trying to get this to pop in for like 3 hours and no dice
Sir. I bought it and I love it. And I have a question 😂. Is there any way to have network access on head unit while I'm connected to my phone and using android auto? Of course I can use Hotspot on my android phone, but then I can't use android auto on idoing.
Whats the brand of your head unit... I just bought a head unit but theirs a lot of issue. Some of the button of my steer wheel is not working.... Can you pls tell me the brand and where you buy it.. thx
How do you get the wired Apple CarPlay to work? I’m plugging in an Apple certified usb cable (Anker, not the white Apple one) and it charges but doesn’t boot up CarPlay. I prefer the wired option since there’s a slight lag using the wireless one
I’m more familiar with iPhone but all you need to do is going into the android auto settings on your phone and put waze on the Home Screen so it shows up.
@@Scoobyfreak86 yeah I tried putting Waze on default and settings on the headunit, still wouldn't pop up automatically and there's no app to click on in android auto setting in the car.
Do you lose xm with this head unit? I listen to xm a lot and have a subscription so I’d be pretty upset if I had to give that up, though I know I can just connect it phone to the xm app and play it through there, it’s just the ease of access of it being on the head unit is a lot easier
I installed a similar unit on my WRX 2017 model. Unit works fine but when I use the volume controls while the headlights are switched on the brightness of all the dashboard lights increase, any idea on what could be wrong?
Looking at this - I have the JDM black ac trim as well, how did you transport that over? Looks like the template doesn’t let you remove that silver trim - thanks!!
Does it work with the OEM Aux port? Just curious as I noticed that “AUX” was an option when you were scrolling through. If not, could you just get an aux adapter that has RCA plugs to plug into the Head Unit?
@@Scoobyfreak86 thanks for the quick reply. What I’m wondering about though is the 3.5mm AUX jack in the armrest. I know most people don’t use those anymore, I was just curious lol
Yes. You need it plugged in for the front speakers to work. It’s shoved in the back and at the bottom. Just need to maneuver wires out of the way and it’ll fit.
Im having issue with the screen brightness at night using apple carplay. My screen brightness for at night/headlights on is turned all the way down. But when i enter back into apple carplay. it shoots the brightness all the way back up
I have the same unit in my 2017 wrx. Just wondering if you’ve updated your firmware at all? Mine has quite a few glitches that I’m sure would go away with an update but I’m finding it impossible to find one. I’ve only found them for the other brands. I sent them a message on Instagram over a month ago and haven’t heard back. Any info you’ve got would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and I love the channel!

Hey man cool vids.. Had a question about how to change the home display I’ve been 👀 looking through the options can’t seem to figure it out …
Good video. My only issue is that it doesn’t sit flush like OEM. And the vent trim pieces aren’t removable (for painting purposes).
it looks a little more awkward on camera than it does in person. It flows very nicely and you don't even notice how it sits. In fact, I actually prefer it this way as it is closer to the driver. I felt the stock unit was very flat and not driver focused. I wrapped the silver trim in gloss black.

This head unit looks amazing thanks for the videos.. I’m wanting to order this soon? Any feed back on the options it gives you?? Like the camera or the obd reader device? Just curious?
Don’t need any extras. Comes with everything you need.
Can you watch movies or UA-cam while driving? I have two little ones so this would surely keep them a little quieter on long trips.
If you are connected to wifi or using a hotspot, yes.
Hey Chris, nice vid as always. I was wondering, you have the Idoing and Dasaita head unit in your description. Which one are you using exactly?

I will be doing a full video on it once it comes in.

I honestly don’t remember. The quad sounds like it’s ringing a bell.
has there been any lagging experience you had overtime? thinking about buying one myself but I’m iffy with it being manufactured from alixpress
None. Literally has started up right away with no issues my whole ownership.
So I just installed, everything works great sound is great... the only thing I can not figure out is how to use WAZE via carplay while listening to radio? Is there a setting I am not seeing?

Carplay mirrors your phone. Radio app is running off the Android OS. You can't parallel the apps between systems.

3368 works for me but 1818 doesn’t so I can’t access the different skins 😞
Try 7171 for the skins instead of 1818. Worked for me
For the USB cables, do they just snap into the original USB ports that come in the glove box?
They do not. You can get them to work in the same spot by Doing something custom though.
Looking forward to the wireless adapter. My car play on this headunit is a little picky
Are you using the OEM Apple cable? It can be finicky if you use an aftermarket cord.
Scoobyfreak86 yes Oem apply cable on USB 1, it’s still finicky at times. I talked to some people at IDoing and they told me they enabled CarPlay wirelessly but no luck on that either
Did you get the unit to fit flush on top? If so how? Every time I lock it in at the bottom, it pops out at the top.

How is the microphone for making calls? I wanted to use the stock one but not sure if you have to use the external

You actually do need an adapter to fool STARLINK to go green instead of flagging red.
Sir, how about spotify when connected via Bluetooth with Android phone? Can you control music on radio screen, change song/Playlist/whatever?
Yes. Both phone or head unit are available to use controls.
Yep! You can also download the Spotify app on the unit so you dont have to use Carplay
Does it work with the OEM Aux port? Just curious as I noticed that “AUX” was an option when you were scrolling through. If not, could you just get an aux adapter that has RCA plugs to plug into the Head Unit?
Headunit comes with USB ports to run wherever you want in the car.
@@Scoobyfreak86 thanks for the quick reply. What I’m wondering about though is the 3.5mm AUX jack in the armrest. I know most people don’t use those anymore, I was just curious lol

Mine has quite a few glitches that I’m sure would go away with an update but I’m finding it impossible to find one. I’ve only found them for the other brands. I sent them a message on Instagram over a month ago and haven’t heard back. Any info you’ve got would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and I love the channel!
Yes there have been a few updates.
What's the FM radio quality like? Good reception and sound quality?

How do you do the updates?
does the usb in your armrest still work or did that get sent to glovebox?
Factory usb does not work. But I ran one of the headunit usbs into there and one into the glovebox.
Is there a way to move and swap the apps on the Home Screen? Thanks
The Home Screen can’t be changed on certain interfaces
How do I get that theme
Any idea on SIM card size/carriers for 4G capabilities? Same sim as a cell phones?
Not too sure on this but my guess is the size of a phone sim.
For some reason my unit didn’t come with zlink
