That is why so many people turn to developer based ROMs and Kernels. It is like a tune for your phone. Unsure if you could do that for TVs though. That is always the first thing I do with my phones.

I was going some of the other threads and such and there are some nice mounting options for these as well. Just glad they look nice in our vehicles.

That Nexus 9 looks pretty decent. Worried about quality control though. I just don't know how the bigger screen would look in the vehicle. Seems like everyone is running 7 or 8 inch. Also, looks like a new Nexus 7 should be coming in 2017.
2010 Non PP Sho. All the factory goodies. (RIP)


2015 MKS Ecoboost. All the factory goodies. (SOLD)

I've been using an asus memo 7 for the past 2 years.
Aside from the random Bluetooth dropouts it's been pretty reliable.

Good to know.  FWIW, my one stable droid tablet, the Nexus, was also made by Asus.

Have you had the wireless off at the time you run bluetooth?  I had to go Airplane mode on the S5 then turn on Bluetooth to get consistent performance.  All this network searching and scanning is heck on the BT reliability.
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

It's wifi only. It's really only a problem if I start the torque app too late after the car is running.
It'll just search for the mx adapter and I'll have to restart the tablet to get it to work.
