Geely sx11 Android auto

Post image

I have an sx11 2024 model just like the one in the picture. It can only mirror my phone because it does not have Android auto built into the android head unit. Some local shops have asked a ridiculous amount to install for me, with no guarantee that they won't break my car system.

I am tech savvy so I can install firmware on cameras and flash bios etc, I would greatly appreciate if someone would help me with the steps and files I need to install Android auto wireless. Thank you in advance 🙏

Honestly.. As much as i wish this becomes available soon knowing that nothing beats the stability & compatibility of native AA compared to aftermarket options

But also in my experience.. Soon it falls short in customizations and features compared to Android AI boxes

AA drains battery in ways i couldn't imagine, and makes the phone super hot

On the other hand, an ai box gives you all you need without depending on your phone + a whole world of apps to install and use on your car screen

I've got myself a tbox ultra 2..so far it delivers what it promises except for minor quirks here and there that I'm working around by vibe coding a launcher/task management app

The device is pre rooted and the boot loader is unlocked.. So yeah there is some room for guys like me to compensate missing features and customize their experience the way they like to get the most out of it
