    Aftermarket Tesla CarPlay and Android Auto Devices

    Interesting. I really appreciate your reporting this. It's so helpful to hear from others who graciously share their thoughts and ideas and experiences here. Although the T2C isn't an exact copy of the Raspberry Pi Android project, I think it has some similarities. I have a Raspberry Pi 4 Model...

    Aftermarket Tesla CarPlay and Android Auto Devices

    Thanks. Makes sense. I just find it weird that, if I turn the hotspot off after turning off the T2C completely and then turn the hotspot on again well before turning on the T2C. That seems enough to ruin the setup and requires endless jiggering. I always realized the hotspot needed to be on for...

    Aftermarket Tesla CarPlay and Android Auto Devices

    Does Tesla allow premium services without paying? I think if you connect to Wi-Fi, you can use the browser and music services and a few others, but I don’t think you can get live road conditions (like yellow and red roads on the Tesla in-car map) and live sentry camera feed to phone. I’d love to...

    Aftermarket Tesla CarPlay and Android Auto Devices

    I think I may have solved my issues, at least for the most part, by never turning off access to the personal hotspot on my iPhone. I always activated the iPhone hotspot before turning on (by USB switch) the CarLinKit T2C, and kept it on all the time the T2C was powered. However, I used to turn...

    Aftermarket Tesla CarPlay and Android Auto Devices

    More news: found that I can still connect to the CarLinKit T2C by connecting iPhone to the unit’s Wi-Fi, and then going to 192.168.3.1 from iPhone and redoing the firmware upgrade. It then started to function. My Tesla M3 is now on 2023.7.15 and the CarLinKit on newest available firmware. This...

    Aftermarket Tesla CarPlay and Android Auto Devices

    CarLinKit T2C is flashing all red about 3 seconds after turning on after my attempt to install the latest firmware failed at about 80%. I’ve whatsapp messaged them but if this isn’t fixed soon I will demand a refund

    Aftermarket Tesla CarPlay and Android Auto Devices

    Just saw the following here from the manufacturer. I’m going to wait until they issue an update through normal channels. https://m.facebook.com/groups/carlinkitservices/ ⚠️We found out there is an issue occur in Tesla. If you updated the system, it will turn to blank screen when connecting to...

    Aftermarket Tesla CarPlay and Android Auto Devices

    Yes, 11.4.2 FSD. It’s a 2019 Model 3 dual motor long range (not performance). Acquired new in March 2019 with HW2 (was it 2.5?), and got the hardware 3 upgrade many moons ago. I’d love to know what I’m doing wrong. Car and T2C show no updates available (car just updated 2 or 3 days ago). I turn...

    Aftermarket Tesla CarPlay and Android Auto Devices

    Yes. Mine now only shows a black screen. I’m on 11.4.2, 2023.7.10. I saw a screen when I tried to log in using an iPad as if it were Tesla with the CarLinKit t2c powered in my house and the iPad on the AutoKit_XXXX Wi-Fi “waiting for connection” that says something about Tesla software no longer...

    Apple Carplay with a WIFI Box

    Yes. Mine now only shows a black screen. I’m on 11.4.2, 2023.7.10. I saw a screen when I tried to log in using an iPad as if it were Tesla with the CarLinKit t2c powered in my house and the iPad on the AutoKit_XXXX Wi-Fi “waiting for connection” that says something about Tesla software no longer...

    Boston solution for curb rash

    Just wanted to put in an endorsement for The Wheel Fix in Waltham MA. I’m just a customer—no other affiliation with them. If you want to get rid of curb rash, go there. Brought in my Tesla Model 3 long range dual motor with 18” Aeros yesterday and, after 4 years, I admit I had a good amount of...

    It’s active today. Sorry I didn’t get any pix

    Supercharger - Baileyville, ME

    Charging at Quinpamsis NB saved my bacon yesterday. I was driving home from a very long weekend in Halifax yesterday and got that notice just before I was going to be re-routed north, which would have added an hour of driving to my trip. Quinpamsis isn’t showing up as a supercharger yet, but I’d...

    New eastern Canada superchargers

    I charged up at Quispamsis, New Brunswick, Canada, yesterday evening, traveling east from Maine. Not listed anywhere, and apparently just opened. I don’t think Tesla is billing for use yet here. It may be the same situation at Salisbury, New Brunswick, Canada. The superchargers operating at...
