How to Use GPS Function on Android Head Unit?

Android system are widely used in Electronics products. And it has been applied to car DVD players too. You can find the Android car DVD GPS spring up like mushrooms. The car owners tend to replace their OEM head units to Android ones. We would like to share how to use the GPS function when you get an Android car DVD GPS.

 

There are some options for you.

Offline Maps comes to the first as it’s free. You can download a map online, install it, and use it easily even without network. But the offline maps is not so good for use than the paid one. Considering it’s free one, you may accept at last.

 

Second, you can access Free Online Maps via WiFi or 3G net work, such as Google Map. But it has limits because you need to connect to Wifi or 3G which you have to pay for it.

 

The most popular and reliable method is buying an Android version map with a SD card, such as Sygic, insert it into GPS SD slot of the Android unit, set the navigation path and then run GPS as general GPS models do. You can find map in the car DVD GPS seller. If you have an Eonon Android car DVD GPS, you can buy the latest 2015 version Android map card and install it as follows:

1. Put the Sygic map into the GPS slot.

2. Enter FileManage

3. Find GPS- Sygic.apk

4. Press Sygic.apk and enter installation interface

5. Press some “next”, and then please wait until it finishes installing. Don’t remove the map card and Don’t turn off the head unit. When it shows App Installed, you can press “open” and use it. There is a Sygic Icon on the main screen after you install it.

There is a navigation button on the head unit which you can set it and start the GPS APP when you press that button.

 

There is also another way for you to choose: Using Mirrorlink Function. Many of us install a map in our phone for the purpose of navigating when we lost our way. You can Sync the Map of your Phone to show on Android Car Stereo for larger display directly. In my opinion, it’s not so practical because sometimes your phone may drain out. And if you can use the phone to navigate directly. And there is no need to transfer it to a larger screen.
