thank you sir! just got my ISM last friday and I'm enjoying every second of it!
Hallelujah!! I saw this when it was posted on Reddit, glad to see that you're sharing it.
Or course! We gotta get through word out 🤘
Just picked up a 2024 Ascent - and it had it already updated. Thanks for the video!
Ive been following this update for awhile since I saw that post on reddit. I've been skeptical of doing it until I watched your video. Update is installed and AA is looking great in full screen. Thanks for the great content as always!
Happened to stumble upon this doing other research, glad I found it! Thanks for posting this!
super nice man. thanks for posting this, would probably never have realized the update was an option otherwise.
Did my '22, many thanks for this one, if I didn't follow you I wouldn't even know this was available. Keep rockin🎸
Glad it helped!
Finally! Was checking the vbwrx subreddit every week since I got my 23 in november. Finally let myself forget about it and I miss it by a month lol. Thank you for the video!
Same for my 22 I just I installed it 😂
Updating my 22' WRX right now. Thank you so much for sharing.
Was my one complaint about the car. Worked perfectly, now I got a giant screen! Thanks!
Thanks for the video! Update went smoothly and now I get to make even better use of that giant infotainment screen they gave us. Awesome content as always!
Awesome video, worked on my Canadian spec 2023 WRX Sport, flawless ! Cheers !!
Thanks so much, upgraded my 2022 WRX Sport Tech (high MT trim in Canada). Your channel is awesome, thanks for all of ypur hard work and info, it's appreciated.
So glad to have been able to help 🤘🫡
So nice to finally have this, went smoothly on my car. Thanks for the video
I appreciate all the feedback from you these last few days but I got it done and it's awesome thank you so much. Big ups on all your videos
Awesome dude! Glad to have been able to help. Enjoy that full screen 🤘
Thank you for the video. Been waiting a long while for this update
Thank you so much for this! I love it already. Just in time for my 9 hour trip tomorrow. You're the man!
Oh man this is definitely going to be so nice for your long trip. 🤘
Just got my WRX and this helped a ton. Thanks!
Just finished the update on my Canadian 2023 WRX Sport. Worked like a charm!
So glad it's working on the CA modelS!
Just finished the install!!!
So happy with the update. Thank you for the step by step install with the download link.
The heated seats and front windshield ventilation setup have been fixed plus Android auto has been upgraded!
This infotainment center was one of my biggest complaints of the car, and now it's been fixed!
I'm so glad you were able to get it installed 🤘
My man! Thanks a lot, and I just did this for my Subi. Had to go back and forth with downloading/deleting the files but eventually got it right lol
So glad you got it working. 🤘
Thank you for your help in getting full screen android auto! Such a game changer!
Of course! I'm glad it helped. 🤘
Easy peasy, just updated my 23 WRX. Thanks much
Thank you for posting this! Just updated my car and OMG is this an improvement.
I'm glad it helped!!
Awesome, thanks! Worked perfectly on my 2022 Premium 6MT. I did have to resort to the appendix and wait 15 min first. Also, the install took a full hour, brand new Sandisk 3.0 128gb drive I formatted to NTFS 1st too. Still extremely happy to finally have full screen AA!
2022 Ram 1500 Owner here. WE HAVE THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. Glad to see a solution for y'all, hopefully us 2019+ will get a similar fix!
Yea man sometimes it's just software but the waiting suuuucks. It was almost 2 years for us 😭
Just finished updating my 2022 wrx premium.. Thanks heavy metal wrx!
Awesome! Im glad everything worked.
your pfp is so pretty plz marry me
Its about time! and great demo, looks easy enough. Oh, I see some dirt under the fenders....
That's called a daily :D
Theres a LOT of dirt haha. I may have been doing a bit of offroading 😉
So glad you made this video. Videos like this help us in the community a ton! I didn't know the update finally came out (got my wrx in October 23). I talked to the dealership a bunch when looking at mine and they all claimed it was an issue with AA. I knew that wasn't true as AAwirless makes a device that allows full screen AA on the wrx and the many rentals I have rented for work have full screen AA in all different shape and size screens. I just wish this would go over the air like that feature you mentioned in the video. Would save all of us some time if we could just click a "download and install update" button on the car during boot up of the screen
Holy I've been waiting for this forever..
I know right!
Just did this on my '23 using the Google drive link. It worked perfectly and fixed an annoying display feature. Thank you!!
it worked perfectly on my 23 wrx premium, thank u
Flawless update! Much appreciated in my '23
Awesome, glad to help! 🤘
Finally, great noti to get after a 10 hr day
Oh man this is going to cheeer you right up!
😱 looks like I'm going to the garage tonight.
Thank you works fantastic
Been wanting this since I got the car
Finally! Going to do this update right now!
Glad I was able to help!
Thank you so much for the tip! For anyone wondering, if you have not installed a previous update like me, expect to spend around 40-45 minutes in total. You do not need to install previous updates for it to work, just install this one and it will bring you up to date!
Oh that's really good news. Thanks for sharing!
I was just talking about this, this past sunday! Finally!
And now you can share the info with your friends! 🤘
It worked! Thx ✌️ just subbed . Actually it didn't work the first time i did it- bc i just dragged over the zip folder. Make sure you do it just as Awais (spelled right?) did it in the video, by selecting all folders and dragging them all at once otherwise the car won't detect it. Its actually so awesome now that its such a big screen!
Glad I waited for this update!
Yes! I love using my gos everyday now haha
I like the new intro music.
Haha thanks man, it's an older track that I've never used. There's two tracks in this video I've never used so you're hearing brand spanking new music 😂🤘
Thanks for posting this! I really like your tire and wheel setup, what are the specs, if you don't mind sharing?
FINALLY!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!
The AA wireless dongle does this exact same thing and makes it wireless android auto. So much better. I just jump in, start the car and it connects wirelessly almost instantly. Well worth the 60 bucks.
Thanks! Just updated my '23 - the small screen Android Auto was really annoying!
Hi, thanks for this. Going to update mine today with this! Unrelated, have you looked into getting a dark matter dm-2 shifter for this car??
Awesome. It went very well. Hardly 5 minutes to update the car.
Dude I cannot thank you enough .. this was my only complaint about this car I've been trying to find an answer since July 2022
I'm so glad it helped!
Hazza the video is HERE!
PRAISE 👏👏🎉
YES! It dropped this weekend but I was excited to get this done today.
Thanks, you are the man!
thank you so much for this
Really appreciate this. Just got a '23 WRX Premium last month and this was something that was kinda annoying me.
And for 0:25 for many reasons.
So, the update (for any other in-Japan owners of the VB). After getting onto my dealer and giving him my version code, even though the onboard system tells me everything is up to date, he tells me there's a later version and it has the full-screen AA in it. Normally I would have to pay for it but he's putting it through as a warranty claim (AA not working properly). I'm almost due the 5000km oil-service anyway, so I've booked it in.
If it hadn't been for the heads-up here I doubt I'd have ever known, so thanks again dude. :)
YOOO that's awesome! It's crazy that I'm able to hit internationally and help around the world. Glad it all worked out!! 🤘
This is great but is there a link for the limited WRX 2023 which has GPS map? Thank you
great update! I agree I've never had an automatic update and even when I have my car connected to wifi and check for updates, it says theres no new updates? Not sure why it doesn't just download and install this one automatically or even on demand. Every morning I drop my kids off to school, and if we're a bit early, we chill in the car and play the android games, (they love it!) but the screen is so small! They're going to love this surprise I hope it makes the games screen bigger! Thanks for this, I had no idea there was an update for it!
EDIT: confirmed! gamesnacks games are now full screen! kids are loving it!
Thanks Bro....At last!!!!....Yeah!!!
You're welcome! 🤘
You sir are awesome! 🤘
Glad to help!! 🤘
You da MAN!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Thank you!! I try.
Awesome dude, thankyou for this headsup. Downloading the zip now. Hopefully it won't snafu with my wireless dongle. :)
Best of luck!
I was so bummed when i got my wrx last month that it didnt have FSAA. This must have came out days after i searched for a solution. Anyway, took under 9 minutes for me. I didnt have a flash drive but it worked great from a portable SSD.
As an android fanboy who currently has an iPhone, this makes me so happy I can switch back without having this issue.
FWIW, I applied this update and think the system is a bit more responsive. For example, previously when getting in the car, the climate controls would chug and lag for the first 20 seconds of starting up. The past couple times has responded MUCH quicker than before when hopping in the car.
The long list of patch notes goes a long way towards fixing the general buggy-ness people complain about. I hope Subaru continues to update this unit with performance and stability fixes and not leave us 22-23 owners high and dry just because they already made their money off us.
Yea the patch note list is LOOOONG. Imn sure there are some good bug fixes.
Might be a worth while video to skim over the patch notes? I'm about to look them up for myself but just an idea. Thanks for the video bruv?
I thought about it but most of them are just little stability issues that can't really be tested properly. I would have had to do a before and after. I figured the AA screen really was the bread and butter. So much so that they highlighted it in the patch notes 😂
Funny enough as I was buying my ‘23 VB I switched from Android to iPhone. I’ll admit that the half screen AA issue was a big factor in that switch. But I’m happy to know that I can switch back if I wanted to.
Oh man sorry you had to go to the dark side! 😭
Anyone know if this is available for limited systems that have map gps?
I almost swapped to an iPhone in november. soooo happy that's no longer the case.
Oh man it's a good thing you didn't 😂
Thanks so much I did it
Glad you got it done! 🤘
Does anyone know if this void balance of maintenance plan? On 22 WRX CVT
Welp, I know what my next mod is going to be :D (Downloading the zip file now)
my model is F27WHM121-770 can someone please share the F27W version of this?
Yo estoy buscando la F27WMM. Estamos igual 😢
@@fernandocabrera3465 llegó al fin via OTA, lo pude actualizar, me tenía loco el tema del carplay que se cae a cada momento, ahora funciona perfecto
Would this work on a 22 Legacy Premium?
Will this work for 20 legacy xt?
Is there wireless Apple car play yet?
Thank the lord!!!! Just updated my VB, and man what a huge difference, thank you :)
Hell yea! I know man it's such a small thing but I'm with you. I drove around with the gps to everything 😂
@@HeavyMetalWRX for those wondering, I didn't have the updated climate control, and this update gave me both full scree AA and the climate 🤙🏼
@@rawsqd oh shit that's actually good news! That means they don't do dekta updates, it's usually a full update each time. Which makes sense why it's so big.
@@HeavyMetalWRX yeah it took almost 30 min to extract those files on my thumb drive, definitely no joke! BTW any idea how to change the weather widget under maps??
Finally!!!!!
It really is nice that we got it finally
Thanks again! I updated mine last week using your link and instructions. It is so much better!!!!!!!!! I appreciate you sharing this.
How on earth did this only take you 9 minutes? Mine was 45 and I was only updating from the last update.. haha. 😅 Ty for the tutorial.
When I did the update last time for the HVAC controls it was 35 minutes for me 😭
How do like the wildpeaks /sparco's compared to your street set up?
Its a TAD squishier as expected but overall i love it. SO smooth and comfortable even with the 10k springs. I currently have the car setup for like 6.5 inch clearance. I drive over anything haha
Is this just applicable to the WRX? Just bought a 2020 Outback and would love full screen as well!
Yea it's for USDM wrx.
The Subaru TR is wireless Android auto. I have the TR
Great video ! However if your car is still under warranty, CALL local dealer they may do it for free . They did my last update @ no charge .
Yea this is true. I found a lot of people getting it done at the dealer.
How do you go about charging your phone if needed if you go wireless?
Well you still need to plug in to charge it. Although some people have the wireless USB pads that you can use for wireless charging. The nice thing with it going wireless is you won't lose connecting if the USB cable jiggles the wrong way.
This is awesome, any idea if there's a file for the Legacy?
Yes there is a file for all models released in November 2023 version 13
Just tried on my 23 wrx in Australia and it needs F27, I believe USA is F21
F27WHM152-580 is what we need. The dealerships should have it.
Do you guys have a link for it, or do we have to go to them?
@@ashleyb66 Have you had the chance to talk to your dealer about the update? I'm due for a service in a month, so guess I'll ask them then.
@@wyf1922 will be at service centre tomorrow for unrelated matter and I'll check then
Was just told by dealer that they have no update but most dealers wouldn't have a clue. Just need to maybe get on to Subaru australia
Will i be able to get the link to get this download? Been waiting for this update
It's in the description. It's a Google drive link.
My new 2023 is currently in Subaru’s shop because they’re telling me it IS wireless. I keep telling them that it isn’t. Both wireless & wired options do not function in my car. (166 miles on it.) I, like you (@ 10:29 ) was under the impresssion there was no wireless option and a wireless adapter was needed in order to add the wireless capability. My car has been in the shop for (2) weeks, come tomorrow. I’ve been in possession of my car for (2) weeks. How sad is that?
I wish I could gain some clarity.
Subarus website says wireless function is what’s supposed to be available, under the OWNER RESOURCES tab. I will try this if I ever get my car back.
Yea idk man 2022 and 2023 are definitely not wireless. Maybe they are confusing it with the outback head unit which is wireless.
I'm strongly considering a WRX, my only major concern is the infotainment reliability. Is it durable enough to last at least 5 years with no major hiccups?
Yea I Mean not much happens to it. Unfortunately a lot, if not all cars are starting to come that way. The choice is pretty limited if that's the your deciding factor, unfortunately.
23 sport here, my only complaint has now been fixed!
I know man, I was always annoyed by the small screen too 🤘
Hi I have 23 vb I installed the software did all the steps you show in the video and it did not work still have the small screen I checked the software update and it's saying software initializing what that mean can you help please?😢
I am not 100% sure. After doing some googling I'm seeing that some people have issues with their dcm module. This looks like something the dealer can help with or you can try to a) reinstall or b) wait for another update ( I wouldn't recommend this considering how long it takes them).
I spoke to subaru of America and they told me to use another usb Stick and reinstall to see if it fixes it and if not to call them back because my dealer doesn't even know about the update
Hi its me again i figured out what is the problem on the video it shows the software upgrade f21smm152-280 but when I download the software from the link its f21smm142-180 how can i get the one from the video sorry i am been a pain
Hey there! I just clocked the link and it does show 152-180.
Thank you for the information but where I can download the file?
It's in the description of the video.
Anyone know what happened with this? I plugged in my android and it defaulted to the stupid temp and "for you" under the half screen again even after reinstalling..
@@dolfowolfo1 if you push the map button it should go back to the full screen. The widgets can be brought up and down below the map.
Wheel and tire set up ???and will they work for a stock vb ???
The car is on Sparco terra 17x7.5+44 and Falken Wildpeak 235/55/17. It'll be SUPER close on stock but I think. It might work.
@@HeavyMetalWRX thanks for the reply the vb community relies heavily upon your car can’t wait to see your future videos.
Do you think this would work on my 2020 legacy
This was made for the WRX. I don't know if it'll work on the legacy.
Please help. When I click the link it says " Couldn't preview file there was a problem with the preview".
But there is still a tab to Download. Does that mean its unusable or is it still safe to download? Thanks.
You just click download. You can't preview it because it's not an image or video. It's ok just click download.
@@HeavyMetalWRX ok, thanks man! Just did the full update to the car. Initially my phone would not connect to car , but once I restarted phone and actually started the car everything worked flawlessly. Tried it multiple times. Works great. Just saw another person in the comments mention this, but it might just be they needed to restart everything. Thanks again man , love your vids! Keep it up!
how are people getting the files? the link takes you to an employee portal
I just clicked the Google drive link on my description and I'm still able to download it.
When I go to developer mode and have the usb plugged in it doesn't show the software update
What market is your car from? At this time this update I have is only for US and CA models that I'm aware of. It MAY work for others but I can't not confirm that.
we got a new USB and it workedd
@@kosmaki so glad it worked out!
just tried this on mine and and i updated it but its still the same with the small screen navigation in android auto! i clicked the google drive in the description of the video! not shure what im doing wrong.. any help would be appreciated!
If it doesn't work you can always take it to the dealership they do have these updates.
@HeavyMetalWRX yea was trying not to go that route cuz I'm in Alaska and it's a far drive to the dealership lol.. I'll just try n re-download it and try the update again.. the only thing it changed was my phone background showed up on the screen now
@@3lweezY_Alaska question do you mind sending me a picture of what it looks like when you plug your phone in to my Instagram
@@HeavyMetalWRX what u mean into Instagram?
Does this fix apple car play too?
Not sure about that. I only have android so I haven't been able to test that
I just look at the bottom screen of my base and wonder...why. There is like nothing that shows up on that screen.
Yea im not sure how the Base benefits. IM glad they added the bigger screen tot he base going forward. It was a no brainer.
Is there any way to mess this up lol cuz if there is i wanna know to avoid it 😅😅
Not really. It'll either work or it won't. Just don't turn your car off while doing it 😂
@@HeavyMetalWRX ok sounds good
