    PHOENIX RADIO 13.6 INSTALL

    Had to upgrade from UConnect. It was so terrible and I can’t believe that UConnect is still coming stock in these Rams.. Finally just pulled the trigger on a Phoenix Automotive 13.6.

    Uconnect not automatically playing from bluetooth, changing audio source

    This issue just began in the past week, and it's driving me absolutely bonkers. In every other bluetooth enabled vehicle I've ever been inside of, when you turn it on it just goes back to your bluetooth or whatever was on last as your source. My truck has recently began turning to FM or XM radio...

    2020 Ram - 8.4" UConnect - Samsung / Android Auto I will "save" a contact after a phone call in the top tabs of the UConnect screen. The contact will be saved for awhile, maybe a day, maybe a few days. At some point all the contacts will just erase and the "HOLD to save" will be back up. Any...

    Earlier today for the first time after 37k miles out of nowhere my speakers started to put out a high pitch distortion sound when anything played though the speakers. This would happen with computer speaking commands, Bluetooth, AM, FM, Sirius XM, and USB media. Note that turning the volume to...

    Why does radio power button turn off display?

    I don't understand the point of the radio power button on my 12" UC. In our BMW, the radio power button is basically a mute button (or play/pause button when CarPlay is connected). In UConnect, it seems to both mute/pause the audio as well as turn the entire screen off. This makes no sense...
