Awesome app; no need to install a tablet.

The Youtube videos of this are awesome. I think im sold. The right functionality at a rock bottom price! Still wish I could see pictures of it in the Z before I take the dive, but oh well. Sprint phone rooted and flashed ready to go!

Just make sure your not running this thing off the bose system, with 2 volt pre outs it will not sound right. Also fi your looking for a sound quality setup avoid it unless your using a sound processor down the line. The higher pre out will allow for less noise and better sound quality.

Well, since everything I have read about the bose system and its pain in the *** to replace, what head unit do you recommend that is more plug and play with better sound quality?

Im not very audio savvy so if its still possible to use this head unit without a huge headache to make sure its installed correctly, is there any directions I can give the installer that will make everything run smooth?

LOL ya bose is a PITA to replace. You can choose any head unit as long as the pre output voltage is 4 volts or higher, anything lower you will not get a lot of volume and a lot of noise out of the speakers.

Alright, so, "pre output voltage is 4 volts installer guy!" and i'm good. Just curious, what do you think the sound quality would be like vs the old non nav bose headunit? I also read you were making a trip to socal this november maybe I could jump on that band wagon.

Your more than welcome to jump in on the trip. You will have some sound improvement over the factory radio.

The things I've study about it has been combined at best. Seems everyone prefers the idea but there are quite a few problems and irregular assistance. There really aren't many applications for it. I'd really like to listen to your ideas if you end up getting one.

Look at the ARliberator app from a few posts up. better yet, Youtube it. it makes it look sooo awesome. im still on the fence cuz im so indecisive, but I also hear at CEs in January Appradio 3 is coming.

Is there any solution to the 2V pre-out problem with Bose amps?

Well you could use a voltage booster however I'm not really sure how they will effect sound quality.

Another option is to run your pre outs to a audio control to boost the signal voltage and would probably not ruin the quality.
