Actually we have protection through your credit card.. that is what I was told.

Yeahhhhh we north American folk could be SOL. Ascertain don't really have any protection against anything when it comes to this, I hope my unit is okay.

So far the one fault I see is the backlight for the buttons flicker a fair bit on initial boot, once the system is up they go out unless I have my lights on. Then they are on with solid red.

Does anyone else have huming feedback in their SD playback? Not sure if its just the SD playback or if its the radio itself

Mine doesn't do anything when I adjust it, wait wrong, if I put it from high to highest it gets brighter, but from high to low it deosnt change.

I had 1 glitch going from SD to Radio where no audio would come ffrom radio, reboot and it worked.

Went from SD to Radio one other time, radio channel static, said it was on my preset channel but it wasn't, hit the preset and the channel came in.

Bluetooth auto connects quick with my galaxy s4 i337m, however the audio streaming needs work, its not crisp and has almost a blown speaker sound of static when playing any track no matter what player I use on my phone. The unit needs to be at volume 20-25to hear anything, SD or radio, 10-15 Haven't tested any calls yet.

Other than that, no other real issues, will wait and see what a cold night & morning brings on.

Attached is my radio version info

Chill everyone, those outside Australia will be covered by Australian consumer law. Sandy as retailer is liable for the cost of returns and it's his job to get restitution from audio sources.

He has been very upfront about when he was going on his honeymoon. If he doesn't respond to these complaints within 14 days then it's a different story of course but it hasn't happened yet.

Re: LCD backlight, I did some 'playing' I do notice slight slight very little change from high to low when you select the brightness, its almost next to no change. The funny part is, when you select anything but high/highest and turn the headlights on, instead of the screen dimming, it brightens up. So its doing the reverse of what it should.

Re: Radio reception, now to me the radio reception isn't the best, not the worst bit definitely not the best. I have both antenna lines hooked up, and yet I still get static waves in & out on radio channels that sould be in crystal clear, especially when I am driving on the city that the radio channels are located. Anyone else experience this? The ST indicator flashes in and out so the radio is detecting signal loss at the moment that the static is heard on the radio. Both my antenna cables hooked up fine to the radio, with slight modification done to the housing of the one cable in the car, I can't see an adapter changing anything with this matter tho, not unless I have the antenna lines on backwards, which on not even sure is possible as they have notches in them I believe preventing such.

Its all good to be sitting in a stationary car in your driveway & play around with the unit but the real question is,... how would you rate it when driving in traffic?

Basic operating functions such as switching from SD to radio should work seamlessly, not require reboots. Volumes should not vary between inputs so drastically. RVC should appear every time when your gear stick is in "R". It should start up every morning for your daily commute to work, not 10 mins after you leave home.

Simple I know, but until someone starts driving around with this thing that is the real test.

Starting tomorrow I will be, its my daily commuter now, oh. One other thing, I don't even have the reverse camera installed. But as soon as I put the car on reverse, my audio is muted.

I drove around for an hour and a half tonight, testing the unit. So far I think I've reported all I had happen. The radio reception is 80%, had the no FM sound glitch from SD which needed a reboot, glitch where the radio was on a preset but really wasn't - just static, Bluetooth audio playback isn't the best, static and sounds distorted with a gain level increased 10% higher than other inputs, screen dimming isn't working correctly.

Think thats it so far, likely will have the white screen of frozen tomorrow morning but will have to see

There is a setting for that, might be in the secret menu.

Go to aux in.
Hold middle of screen on far left
Other menu comes up.

I think it was in there?
