    CarPlay solution for Tesla by Michal Gapinski using Raspberry Pi with Android

    What are you talking about bloated and losing its way? You want lite, that's exactly what the 2023 builds are working towards. The roadmap has been pretty clear. Hardware acceleration must be debugged and enabled, in order to reduce heat, power consumption, system resources, and overall speed...

    CarPlay solution for Tesla by Michal Gapinski using Raspberry Pi with Android

    You can already do that via Bluetooth tethering. Just be sure "Internet" is enabled on the Pi's Bluetooth settings. You could just disable auto connect on autokit. Might be a way to use an automated or scripting Android app to disable a USB device. I'm currently using an automation app to...

    CarPlay solution for Tesla by Michal Gapinski using Raspberry Pi with Android

    Hmm you're right, since upgrading to 2022.44.2 from 2022.44.1 I cannot share internet via Bluetooth. Edit: I resolved this by forgetting the phone on the Pi and forgetting the Pi on the phone. Then when repairing, I kept the Bluetooth screen open on my iPhone, and initiated the pairing from...

    CarPlay solution for Tesla by Michal Gapinski using Raspberry Pi with Android

    Make sure "Internet" is enabled for your paired phone in the Pi's Bluetooth settings. I think a script is needed to automatically enable that toggle.

    Tesla Android Project for CarPlay and Android Auto

    Until Mike Gapiński adds an update system into his Android distro, the only way to update is to essentially perform a full reinstall. Flashing the SD card with the updated image, then going through the fastboot install process at a terminal/command line. You might be able to just flash the...

    Tesla Android Project for CarPlay and Android Auto

    Can you link which dongle you bought? Which version of Tesla Android are you running, the two Pi one or the single Pi version? Hook up a monitor to the HDMI output on the Pi to see what its doing.

    CarPlay solution for Tesla by Michal Gapinski using Raspberry Pi with Android

    Your cable might have a crack in one of the traces, and the way it gets bent when using the tower opens the crack. Have you tried flipping the cable around? Swap the Pi side with the Geekworm side. I actually had display corruption issues last night. Random green lines and sometimes garbled...

    CarPlay solution for Tesla by Michal Gapinski using Raspberry Pi with Android

    Yes it came with the cooler combo case I linked. The smaller plexi piece came in the box for the cooler. The other plexi pieces came in a standalone box, which can be sold separately as just a case, or in the combo cooler and case I linked. About 6 inches. I ordered the green variant. If your...

    CarPlay solution for Tesla by Michal Gapinski using Raspberry Pi with Android

    You either broke the flex cable, or it's not properly seated. The clearance between it and the tower cooler is pretty terrible. They are very easy to kink and break the copper in the cable too. Just buy a new flex cable , they're a standard part, if reseating it doesn't work. Your issues with...

    CarPlay solution for Tesla by Michal Gapinski using Raspberry Pi with Android

    Most problems people encounter here, especially wifi/internet connections are related to thermal throttling, failing to overclock the Pi, and inadequate power. You must use either high quality USB cables, or short USB cables, and a good 12V power adapter that can supply at least 2.5A (ideally...

    CarPlay workaround

    There's no reason it wouldn't work in the S refresh. Overlap in canbus messages and computer system. Maybe just the harness has a different pinout, which could be adapted.

    Tesla Android Project for CarPlay and Android Auto

    Finally updated the Linux Pi to 2022.27.1. Holy crap, the stability is so much better. Also finally overclocked the Android Pi, much smoother carplay performance. This project has really come along, and it's completely worth dealing with two Pis. The install process is so much simpler now...

    Tesla Android Project for CarPlay and Android Auto

    With the previous update (version 25), the software (via audio capture) is able to have audio come through your Tesla browser and bluetooth audio simultaneously. So things like GPS navigation alerts come through the browser, while music or podcasts or whatever you are listening to, can come...
