CarPlay CarPlay adapter to convert to wireless CarPlay?

If I rollback, I cannot use call function. I tried 3 cables and problem is still there.

Red UI or Green UI?

That version didn't work but I was able to revert back to 2021.03

Help! I have the carlinkit 3.0 adapter and had flased the CAR2PLAY FW (don't ask me why...ha). I then reverted back using "U2W_Update_2020.11.10.2138_ROLLBACK.img" and now I'm stuck on the FW version before 2021.07.04. When I try to update the FW via the web interface it gives me an error. I have tried multiple FW versions and renaming to "U2W_AUTOKIT_Update", "U2W_Update" and "U2W_ZYD_Update" and nothing works.

Any idea where to go from here?

Has anyone managed to solve the connection loss issue in 4.0?

I was able to flash it, thank you. Ready for the other two.

Unable to flash the first one. Nothing happens when I plug in the flash drive. I tried changing the file name to "U2W_AUTOKIT_Update" and "U2W_ZYD_Update" but no luck. Any suggestions?

Hmm move onto second. You shouldn’t need to be renaming each time if the previous firmware I gave worked.

Unable to flash the second one as well. Man, I hope this thing isn't bricked..

Edit: This worked!

So obviously the Cplay2air firmware is bricking these units and needing to restore the original configuration. I think they need to remove the CPlay2Air firmware from the public link as people will keep running into this issue.

Agreed. Also, this is the FW that was installed. I was expecting the red UI but it’s working OK so far..

CPlay2Air use Green UI, so most likely it changed it after that update.

Should I be concerned since I have the carlinkit adapter or is it just a UI thing?

Simply UI. Almost identical between both firmware
