I was looking at sticking one of these in the van, how's yours holding up MRK?

Zero problems here! I have since installed Apps2SD as my unit only came with 1GB of user storage for apps so was filled quickly and now have ear unlimited space for everything I install and have YouTube Premium, Waze, Spotify and also a couple of live TV apps although haven't used them in a while.

Everything just works seamlessly still.

I have the Erisin RK3188 unit. It's very good and does 95% of everything I need without issue. My only gripe is of my own fault really, in that the ROM storage is 1GB for app installs by default. Rooting it is easy and installing a custom ROM is easy as well which increases ROM storage to 8 to 16GB respectively. Of course this requires a clean wipe... Which I don't want to do as I've already spent ages configuring everything and getting all apps installed.

But thankfully I have all the apps I'd need now anyway so don't need to install anything else.

Other than that, everything else works. I have a 128GB USB stick with my music on, the latest Waze beta, LastFM scrobbler, GoneMad music player, Viper4Android FX (hugely important if you want to unlock the sound quality) and so on.

A note for these kind of units. Out of the box they will only support sticks and cards formatted to FAT32, not NTFS or exFAT I found.

I have a few vids online if interested.

So you have the "m" logo for..... is that like sleep/standby mode? can you press and hold the power button to turn it off completely? does it do that when you turn the ignition off? more importantly (for me at least) does it remember its off or will it turn on everytime you start the car?

Appreciate your info on this!
 
The M logo is just my home screen background is all. It's changed now to be more functional:

When you hold the power button it shuts down and remembers that state when you turn the ignition off.

If you just turn the ignition off then it will go into sleep mode for the length of time you've set so could be 2 hours (it has an internal battery) and then it will fully shut down. The sleep wake up is instant but wake up from a full shutdown takes about 20 seconds.
 
Had a Xtrons. Binned it after 6 months - nothing worked for long - now got a Pumpkin - works fine and sat nav works.
Bluetooth to phone is very good.
