With Bluetooth functionality, the Kenwood DMX8020DABS enables hands-free calling, providing convenience and safety while on the road. It also supports both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, allowing seamless integration with smartphones and access to various apps and features. Wireless Mirroring is a groundbreaking solution for seamlessly displaying and controlling your smartphone apps on the receivers’ large screen without cables. The feature is available on compatible Android phones. Some features, applications and services are not available in every region. Ah, great. Can you tell me more about what and how the Wireless Mirroring for Android works ? I'm trying to determine whether I need the full Wireless android auto, as on the DMX 8020DABS or if my Pixel 4 will work on a Kenwood unit that has Wireless Mirroring option. Personally, I do think if the off the shelf head units currently don't do this, I think it will be a simple software update in the future.

Yeah, I am going to neaten it all up later, try and tape everything that's needed away neatly and make sure nothing is rattling around. If that's the case, I'll plug the GPS in at the same time then.I've looked at various settings on the phone and headunit, but can't see if there is a option to make this happen. USB Mirroring for Android allows you to display and control your Android smartphone on the receiver screen via USB. You can enjoy your favorite apps on a large display with impressive sound quality. Before starting True Mirroring, just install the free app “ Mirroring for KENWOOD” on your smartphone and connect it to the receiver via Bluetooth as well as a USB cable. I originally tagged this question onto a old thread I had when I had the Kenwood DMX-8019 unit, but I'm not getting much help, so I've created a new thread. So basically what I need to find out, is why the Carplay icon is greyed out. I don't want to have to connect the cable each time, this does work, but this is the latest wireless unit, so I want to use that option.

When the DNPS function of the center unit is operated, system will restrict title selection or other functions of the iPod for ten seconds. (Will resume in ten seconds.) Just wondering if anyone has one of these fitted in their car, as I have a few questions, hopefully which can be answered. Sorry, to be clear I believe the last I saw Samsung had fixed the One UI issue, so you ought to be ok now. You can connect up to 3 camera's to this receiver: a rear camera with parking guideline support, the KENWOOD CMOS-320 (sold separately & controlled via the Camera Link) and a blind view (left/right) camera. The AV-input is assignable as 3rd camera input. Setting of camera type and display switching between 3 cameras can be operated easily via the receiver’s large screen. Also...this has a capacitive touch screen am I right? Currently have a Pioneer unit with a resistive touch screen which isn't great if I'm honest. The Kenwood screens do seem superior.The Kenwood DMX8020DABS is an advanced car radio with a wide range of features. It boasts a responsive touchscreen and a built-in display for easy navigation and control. The radio supports various bands including AM, DAB, DAB+, FM, LW, and MW, allowing users to tune in to their preferred stations. Connect the unit and iPod /iPhone with the attached iPod cable and Apple Lightning - 30 pin adapter.

High-Resolution Audio Capturing all the details, from your favorite artists’ every breath, to the complex soundscape that surrounds them. Anyway, I'm happy with this unit for the foreseeable future, I have best of both worlds, corded and wireless. Thanks for that, for some reason, the Aussies have loads of videos on Kenwood stereos and helped me decide which one to buy in the first place.

Connect the unit and iPod /iPhone with listed KENWOOD accessory iPod cable, HDMI cable and the Apple Lightning Digital AV Adapter. Glad to hear the screen is better, as that's one of my gripes about the Pioneer unit I have. The UI in the Pioneer isn't fantastic either (better than OEM), so as long as the Kenwood is "as good" then I will be happy, especially if the screen is more responsive. Connect the unit and iPod /iPhone with listed KENWOOD HDMI cable and the Apple Lightning Digital AV Adapter, Lightning to USB Cable (accessory of the iPod/iPhone).

Do not keep the Apple Lightning to USB Cable (accessory of the iPod/iPhone) in the car to avoid damage by heat. I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab A that I'm trying to set in the vehicle to use Torque Pro. I have not been able to use the Wireless Mirroring because the Tab A doesn't have a function to turn on the Wireless Mirroring. My unit arrived today. Spent my lunch break getting it set up basically, just to get power to it and take a look. This evening after work I will spend some time getting it properly fitted and make sure everything is neat and tidy. Pleased so far thoughWireless AA does use a fair chunk of power especially if you're navigating, so don't bin that USB cable just yet
