Guys be sure to buy the new version with the new SM6225 cpu. It runs much more efficient and smoother also faster! And be sure to choose the 8gb ram version also.
Nice video note: for change the wallpaper you don't have to put on SD card just go on the browser and download the photo you want. Go on files download find the image click on the sign "... " Set as wallpaper
Thanks for explaining so good. I just subscribed to the channel. Keep up the great job . Keep making videos 👍🏽
Oh man, I’m so dumb. I made the mistake of watching all of your videos from oldest to newest and I bought the CarLinkIt Plus… came back to watch the wire hide tutorial only to realize they have an upgraded model! I would have gone for the Max had I paid attention. Gonna see if they’ll accept a return and let me upgrade as I haven’t actually used it yet.
EDIT: After a bit more research, it doesn't seem to be much difference for what I'm looking for. I'm just gonna roll with what I've got and I'm sure I'll be happy.
Excellent illustrated explanation!! Thank you so much
6:05 thank you I was looking for this everywhere!!
Great video like always 👍🏼.
Nice informational video, did you ever try downloading a throttle control app and able to pair with the Bluetooth device controller?
Can you adjust the width of the split screen, i.e. have a larger map but still show audio
Big screen like PC Monitor....nice ❤
Thank you!
Tks for the video but what about transmission temperature On the new 2024 tundras
This camera angle isn't really beneficial. Would be great if we could see the actual screen better. After all that's what the video is about..
The only trouble I have with my box is that I have to turn my hotspot on and off once to establish wifi connection. Other than that I love it. I have an Iphone mini 13.
Thanks for the video. Just picked up the Plus, but I think setup is close to same. One quick question: Did you have to forget your phone on the toyota settings screen before connecting to this box? IOW, if bluetooth is on it's gonna try to connect to the truck first. Does that have to be turned off? Thanks again for any info, and Happy New Year
is the plus with chip model QCM6125 ? how you liking it so far?
Is Hulu available on the is updated box?
Sm 6225 is better than sdm660? I saw on sale sdm660 and information it's new cersion of tolbox ambient. I'm little confused which is better
just got this- pretty darn nice, but at the risk of missing something obvious- netlfix, youtube, etc has to be run through the Tundra/vehicle display? Meaning: I can't run youtube through the app/browser on my phone and have it work?
or is there an app that I can dload on my phone and accomplish such?
I just received the older version from watching your previous video. Today I see this. I’m guessing I’ll need to return it for the max. What’s your thoughts.
Would the Mictuning app work though this? I just bought the 12 gang switch with the app option. This would be great that way I wouldn’t have to mount the actual switch on my dash. Or do you have to power on the switch first ? I haven’t installed the switch yet.
Do you have to open your hotspot settings on your iPhone to get yours to auto connect? Mine won’t automatically connect to my iPhone’s hotspot unless I open it on my phone.
I have Problems to Connect my iPhone 12. I can Connect to Bluetooth and allow CarPlay but CarPlay Not opening. Any Advice?
thanks for the video, i was just wondering how the latency was for the audio when watching videos if any?
I bought this device with a 6225 processor. 8gb ram.
It's really incredibly fast. The surface on the back is very hot when the hand touches it. I looked with the program and the device is like 52-53 degrees.
i dont know how i did it but set the connection type to carplay...the box starts within a few seconds and you can still use android auto. if connection type is set to android auto, i need about half a minute just to see the interface of the box on my multimedia system
Would this work with the stock head unit for 2020 TRD pro or no..? Great Vid btw. Subscribed!
What about car warranty does that won’t affect that ?
Hey Nitro, I purchased the carlink ambient max. I put an active Sims car in the unit. How do I get the unit to work with and stream from the sims.
Hi, may I ask how to change the launcher screen layout... for mine, the map is on the right side, where on your screen. The map is on the left
Quick question-so just bought a plus with your link. I dig it but there’s one thing…I can in fact switch between my CarPlay and the tbox but whenever I switch to car play, the box drops its WiFi connection. Are you saying that the ambient or Max (i think it’s called now) does not do that? Every time I switch back to the box, I need to manually reconnect to a WiFi connection.
So I just bought a plus with your discount code. My question is this-I can toggle back and forth between CarPlay with my iPhone and the box but whenever I switch back to the box, it drops WiFi connection and I have to manually reset it. Are you saying that this doesn’t happen with the new module?
Curious about this box… if your car gets broken into and they steal the box, will they now have access to all the apps and their logins that you have on the box? Meaning that I would have to change every single password to any app that I have on that box and let’s say my phone or tv or home pc? Thanks
Is there any way to screen mirror from phone to screen so you can control from phone?
does the BT phone app on the device supports dual connections from 2 phones 1 android + 1 iphone ?
Hi thanks for your video❤ I have a question: how can we use the device without a car? I mean I need a lot of time for setting and everything, and I don't want to spend my time in the car. So if I can stay at home and do this, would be excellent. Once again how can we use the box without a car at home? 🙏🙏👍👍
Something weird is going on with mine. I follow all instructions and get to the autokit button and it says waiting, I connect to it via bluetooth on my phone, my phone pairs with the box but it still says waiting. It wont show up on the screen at all that my phone is connected. Any ideas?
Excellent an very informative video. Now will this work on a radio that has built in Apple CarPlay?? Thank you an thank you for your timely response
Yepper! My Tundra has wireless CarPlay built in, works great! Hope that helps!
Hi, i have iPhone 14 pro, and carlinkit now connects automatically to my phones bluetooth but my phone doesn’t share internet through this bluetooth connection. Is there the way that this box will also receive internet connection via bluetooth or i have to connect it through wifi every time?
My Toyota app for my truck is missing when I have the carlinkit plugged in is that normal
How did you change the picture on your screen?
What’s the difference between the max and 660
Hey I have quick question I don’t know if you can be able to help me I bought similar box before and couldn’t connect it to my hotspot I have 2016 cla250 and it doesn’t have touch screen I was using the little handle/mouse thing but no matter what I do I couldn’t get it working does this box come with remote control or is there anyway I can make it work with my car? Please let me know thanks
I have pioneer SPH EVO 950DAB will it work ?
Can't seem to split screen with Google maps, has anyone had the same issue?
Good video just bought the MMD box from Amazon , can this be bought on Amazon
I have a 2024 tundra trd pro...I for whatever reason don't get a full screen, the car play and the toyota interface buttons never go away...
How do you get the JB4 app on there?
Is there a developer option somewhere
When you had the t-box plus and using your iPhones hotspot, did you have to go to the hotspot screen in settings on your phone to connect to WiFi every time you got in the truck to use the t-box? My will not connect to my iPhones hotspot unless I go to the phones hotspot page.
Mine does the same. I have to cycle the hotspot on and off for the box to connect.
Im having same problem connecting to phone. Sitting in driveway the house wifi connects and works fine. But I have only been able to connect to phone and actually drive off maybe 3 times. After playing with it for 30 min each time. Then I have no idea how I actually made it connect. Any suggestions?
Can this support 512GB SD Card?
Thanks for sharing, the website offers 2 models with different chips, What's the difference between QCM6125 vs SM6225?
SM6225 is newer (from 2021) and faster.
Hey, so I've had the carlink in my truck for over a week and it's cool. When I play spotify the sound changes constantly from your in a tunnel to high treble and its just not the same compared to android auto. That is the biggest bummer part about this setup. I do enjoy the apps I can load on there, it does take some time to load when I start the truck. I'm still learning it but I'm not super impressed. Ya it was only 127 bucks but I was basing this purchase off your video for it, you loved it better than the other brand so I bought it. Also it's not as smooth flowing as android auto but not that big of a deal. Anyways just thought I would share my experience with it so far. Thanks again for your very indepth reviews.
Hey Jeff!…I would send them an email about the audio, mine is flawless…not sure what’s happening with it, they may have ya do a software update…that may solve any other issues you’re having as well, let me know how ya make out!…thanks for sharing your feedback!
Thank you sir for the review! Would playing CZcams or Netflix playable while the vehicle is moving?
No prob, thanks for watching! And yes sir, it plays no matter what, hope that helps!
Looked on the link you provided- is this the T-Box Max?
Yepper, they call it the Ambient or the Max, here’s a direct link for ya, hope it helps!

@@NitroZ18FishingDid you ever figure out how to hook up your ditch lights and light bar to come on when you turn high beams on like the oem Toyota bar?
when I go to apple apple play screen the car icon doesn't show up, please help
Can you set it up so that you can use "Hey Google...."?
and when you use the carlinkit you lose all your texting either by voice text and though carplay
Hi.cuestion? Can i use it for a tundra 2021?
Yepper!…it’ll work perfect!
do you need Wi-Fi or hot spot to watch a movie on Netflix if you preload it on micro-SD card?
I don’t believe so. I’ve honestly never used an SD card but I’m almost positive if you download it you’re good to go!
I have a f150 2022 and it only has wireless CarPlay how can I use this device ?
I just got a 2023 F150 ive made mine work but i had to play with it. Not sure how i got it to work after trying so long. Im looking for someone to put a video out with exact steps for the F150.
You should have at least one port that shares data with your head unit. The Tundra is the same way, my CarPlay is wireless, but if you plug into the correct port it’ll share the data with your screen. Hope that helps!
Will it work on Porsche Cars? Because these cars only support APPLE CARPLAY
Yepper!…as long as the car has CarPlay, it should work perfectly fine…hope that helps!
plenty of lukewarm to "I hate it" reviews on Tundra- I'm sure some are "I can't do IT" related, but many seem legit. I'm going to take a chance. Please tell me you can disable the garish "look at me!" external rainbow light?
Does it work while the vehicle is in drive?
Yepper!…works no matter what the vehicle is doing (as long as it’s on of course…lol)
Haha. Thank you! I used your code.
Installed this box over the weekend and not to impressed at the moment, sometimes the bluetooth connection fails and i can't seem to be able to use phone because the folder is empty which means it doesn't have access to my galaxy s23 ultra contacts, so making a phone call means or i go back to original car screen or by using my phone book directly on my phone, also if i press the phone button on my steering wheel it doesn't open the phone book but it kinda works as a backspace button, when i press the phone button it goes to start screen so at the moment not to impressed with this box , if i can't get it sorted it goes in the trash because i don't use things that don't work properly, can't be a set up problem because i allowed it full access on everything while setting up the box
Hey Robert! Sorry to hear that man, I’m not exactly sure what’s causing your issues since I’m not an Android guy. I’ve never used one, I’ve been an iPhone user since they came out. Hopefully someone can chime in and help ya out, I don’t have any of those issues with my iPhone 12 Pro Max. Worst case scenario I would send them an email and express your concerns, something doesn’t seem right. Sorry I can be more helpful on this one, let me know how ya make out!
@@NitroZ18Fishing sorted most of these problems by going back to factory settings and starting all over again from scratch, the first time I started it up I did have the android logo but my screen didn't look right it looked more like Apple carplay so I reset the box by pushing with the pin in that small whole and then I got same android logo but this time the android screen, don't know what was wrong in that box but it showed android logo but gave carplay 🤔 I think for a moment android identified as carplay 😅 only thing not 100% happy about is phone calls because the caller hears a slight écho from his own voice and when I call tru original nissan connect system I don't have that problem....a bit annoying but that's the only issue I still have now
why does it appear that the newest/latest box ('24) has an inferior CPU (the SDM660 vs the SM6225) and is more expensive?
If PLEX runs on this thing, holy balls.
í've recently bought this one... audio and video are out of sync in CZcams, prime video, Netflix.... Also gets very hot, very very hot. Audio quality from Spotify or any other app is horrible, a lot of compression.
Hey!…did you get this straightened out with them???…mine is not like that at all, I have no issues with audio quality or video/audio syncing up, something isn’t right…I would contact them if you haven’t already, they should get you taken care of…let me know how ya make out!
That sucks. I just got the old box last week.
As did I from watching your previous video. I haven’t opened it yet. Should I be returning it for the new box?
Me too. Just got it last Friday..... now we have the new Tbox Max.
I bought this version and it runs hot. Burning hot. Any one else?
Mine doesn’t do that at all, did you ever get it straightened out???…if not, send them an email, it definitely shouldn’t be doing that…let me know how ya make out!
Mine gets very hot on the back side also. Will burn you if you hold it.
The promo code won’t work!
Z18 won’t work on their website??? I just tried and it took the 18% off, let me know if you’re still having trouble, it’s definitely active and working
Why dont you tell your viewers that it stops working. It doesnt work most of the time its not just plug n play. It’ll work one day and next day just stops connecting to wifi. Do not buy this product.
Can you adjust the width of the split screen, i.e. have a larger map but still show audio
Yepper, very easy to do!
Is it better then the plus ,previous model?
