We hooked up with Ben Woo and the team at ‪@CMANetworks‬ and talked about our Jeep Jl/JT Radio and ability to retain all the factory features. Including the 4XE Hybrid menus and Fast charge.

Hopefully linkwell can keep some more of Fords factory features on some kind of update. Would love to keep Ford app and other stuff but the radio is awesome.

So if it’s something run by SYNC there is no way for us to retain it apart from retaining SYNC. If we retain SYNC then we lose 75% of the aftermarket features of our radio and leave ourselves vulnerable to SYNC and its updates. So unfortunately with Ford there isn’t a way around it that works well. We retain as much as we possibly can for Ford currently. The Ford Pass app should still work outside of tracking. That is the only part of the app that is lost when installing our radio.

Hey Jon. Im currently running the gen 5 radio in my wrangler. My phone updated android auto last night and so far today, my jeep has not been connecting to the radios android auto. I think its trying, because as im playing my music thru the cars BT music, the music or podcast stops periodically in the same way it would stall as the phone fonnected to the cars android auto, but then it starts playing again. Im not sure if others have experienced this issue yet but hopefully you can help me out!

So real talk, Android Auto is an awful app to interface with. But we will try figuring it out. In the radios Bluetooth forget the phone. And try repairing the phone and setting up Android Auto. You may try downgrading the ZYLYNK version to 4.0.18 tends to be better for Android.

@@LinksWellInc Copy. I just got back in the car and now it connected almost immediately..... without doing any changes. So maybe it was my phone or who knows..... thanks for responding. Hopefully it won't happen again.

Can you use the factory hands free mic built into the jeep wrangler?

No. You have to install our microphone.

just saw solargarage shared a recent video showing how to retain the factory mic and using the XM antenna for GPS with the gen 6 so now I’m definitely leaning towards this one!!!
