    I am going to try updating my NEXUS 7 and mount it above my stereo. I just need a newer version of jellybean or whatever its called so I can use the ALPConnect on that. Any suggestions on an Apple product that wont be affected by the IOS 8 issue? Might try an Ipod or Apple Mini if those are safe. Need some money first. lol

    Any iPhone that is not an iPhone 6, You are better off if you want a dedicated display using a cheaper older Android Phone. There are many that would work that would be under $100.

    Before looking at an Escort Radar Detector you should really check out Uniden Detectors.. Uniden R1 & R3 are the best performing radar detectors for the money.

    I think Google usually offers updates for their devices, but just in case they don't for your version, look it up on xda-dev. Read how to install a recovery like twrp, then flash the latest stable version of slimrom (can be found on slimroms.net).

    Are you good with Android? Problem I am having is BT 4.0 LE, I have tried many external BLE 4.0 Dongles and Android just does not have drivers for them and its a waiting game trying to get Google to add support for 4.0 USB BT Adapters.

    Sorry, I am not familiar with using Bluetooth dongles on Android. Do you mind me asking what device the dongle is for?

    Any Android CarPC, They all only currently have support for BT 2.0 but they have USB Ports for BT Dongles but no support drivers to utilize the BT 4.0 USB Dongles.

    I installed the latest version of CyanogenMod and will test it out and see how it goes. I wanted to use Escort Live on the android also but I have the iPhone version of EL so that wont work. Not sure why Escort had to make two versions of the cable since their Max2 works with IOS and Android. If ALP BT can be used with both then Escort should take note. Not really happy with the development of EL or Escort support for that matter, but I digress.
