Just got my new nissan almera. Its totally night and day compare to the old almera. The downside is the entertaiment system. No android auto. Saw a few youtube on the guide to install app for android auto compatability but not able to do on our local nissan. Unable to connect to wifi. Hope someone can assist

Malaysia still don't really support Android Auto I think.
Altho I read an article from WapCar (Yes, I know) that this app supposedly works?
It's called Headunit Reloaded from Google Play Store.
I don't have a headunit to try so, good luck!

How to install the Headunit Reloaded to the headunit? Suprisingly there is no connectivity to the wifi from the headunit. Any help from others?

Latest Almera is an improvement on the really stupid looking previous model.

Let me shed some light on this android auto stuff

@ TS

did you install AA on your phone?
How?
Play store dont have it

you need to install through apkmirror or other place for DL apks

AA does not work without the phone

Wat jay say is that, though AA is NOT officially supported in Malaysia
if the HU can support AA, it will connect

so if you have AA install, and can connect with no problem
then all is good

if cannot too bad Nissan malaysia change the local setup (like some toyotas, by UMW)

Hondas civic 10th gen pre-fl actually have the same HU for all 3 version
and the same HU as with internationals

so GPS antenna, AA support as well as Carplay support for Apple

I know that AA is come together in Android 11
But like my oneplus 7 , still need to install apk to have it

What the head unit does is technically a mirroring to you phone
But unlike simple mirroring, it actually have full functionality of the phone on the head unit touch screen

Last time , before AA went big, there is aftermarkets unit that run off android system. That is not AA

New nissan almera only supports apple carplay, no android auto support. Not even if u have the app installed in your phone. Headunit reloaded would not work with it as its not an “android” based head unit.

the Nissan dept that in charge of Head Unit sourcing is TCAT , it's the first office in Segambut HQ there

can call and ask or email them

there's no way they decided on a HU without android auto and dont have backup solution
