Hello everyone Man great info on the radio swaps. I have the 8.4 Non Nav in my 1500 and a while back when people were thinking about the radio swap I decided to purchase a 8.4 with Nav was hesititen back then to buy the 12" wish I did now. So I went with the 8.4 Nav and also purchased the module. So with the Alfaobd can the android version be used or does it have to be the laptop version for the programing changes. thanks

Why do you want to update your radio? Is there any problems with it? If not, Don't update it.
