This guy claims he is able to get full screen Android Auto on his 2023 TRX. He still hasn't answered my question about which Carlinkit AI Box he is using. I suppose I could ask Carlinkit support, but I wanted to ask here first to see if anyone has tried the Carlinkit AI Box with UConnect 5.


I'm thinking it might be this model...

I don’t see any responses to your question here. I don’t have a TRX, but I have a Carlinkit Tbox Plus connected to my 12”Uconnect 5 screen. It works great for me. It takes a bit longer to start up, as you have to wait for it to boot after powering on the Uconnect screen. I use it to run full Android so I can use specific apps and control my Dash Cam. The one I have is 8GB/128GB. It is running Android 13 and is a Qualcomm 6125 CPU and chipset.

Got any pics of the full screen AA? I'm mostly interested in seeing full screen Google Maps and Sirius.

Ram Connect just ran a 50% off deal for their Navigation Package and gave me a $100 credit for next years renewal, so I'm not in a hurry to get full screen AA, but I might be interested in adding the Carlinkit anyway.

I don’t use AA, I have an iPhone. But I have an android device at home. I am in Florida until Friday. I will see how it works and take a pic for you sometime this weekend. I actually use straight Android with this device. The launcher for it functions with map, music and app windows tiled on the screen. I prefer the full apps vs AA or CarPlay versions.

Not all the boxes work with the 12” screen. They just don’t auto scale properly. I had to return one because of this. I believe the smaller screens work fine though. They all run similar software, but some brands update better than others.

There is a telegram group for these devices: Carplay AI Box Friends
