I was told that this was the latest for the Eclipse, the Xtrons units have a later build. I was told that Sean is working with the factory to solve the bluetooth problem that some are having before releasing it.

About Xtron, i did some digging on the XDA... The MCU version tells that this radio is built by HuiFei/Kai Ge Le (KGL) and if i'm right, that's the one who builded the navall 2, Xtron is just a seller like Navall, so they depending on the HuiFei/Kai Ge Le (KGL) factory for upates.

Jubbs has said that the latest ones he is sending out have the new firmware, so hopefully it won't be long before the Eclipse gets it.

I had a little chat with Ownice, it seems that cpu-z gives wrong info, for Xtron and the C500. he recommends to use antutu for accurate info.

Did you run a benchmark with Antutu?

Tom Tom Go on my Xtrons unit works perfectly fine, which has a MT3562 Octa Core, ARM Cortex-A53 chipset.

Jubbs, will TomTom Go work on that unit I had off you? (5.1 £179)

Tomtom go looks the daddy compared to anything else out there tbh.

That Xtrons just WILL NOT fit without the metal tabs being ground down....

Have you experienced this? I suppose you can say its on a par with the BMW Alpine 16:9 where quite a lot of metal is needed off....

Please can you tell me I am not going mad, and others are commonly having to shave the plastic console away (rather not) or grind the tabs down.

With a torch in the subzero conditions tonight, it looks like its at least 5mm required to clear the plastic.

Cheers:p

Other than the annoying long push steering control issue, the actual plain 5.1 interface is brilliant for me, and the sound is way better than the full HK/BMW setup in the 260, even with the rubbish standard speakers.

Oh and one other thing, in the factory menu I saw the option about RGB leds etc, I understand that this unit you cannot tune the colour at all?

I see that it auto dims with the headlights coming on, this is enough for me!

If TomTom Go works, then I will be very happy, as it looks by FAR the best nav package out there, if expensive. For the cash they want I'd expect it to have at least Europe and Russia, and all the POI and essentials like speed cameras, speed limits, and petrol stations etc. Will need to investigate.


thanks again.
