I found a few apps that do this, aCar and CarPros, downloaded aCar today and was not that great. Will try CarPros tomorrow and see but it should be very easy to find. I think car pros can connect to the ELM 327 that will be a plus.

in other note i used the mtcd tool and change the launch to the voice control and used an app call utter qi for utter quick launch and the utter app. I think with this app we can create the list of voice commands that came with the car. I will find a list and see if i can create the same.

3)Here you need prepare a TF(Mirco SD) card,and card reader. copy the uncompressed files(names"DMCU"and"DUPDATE") to the TF card.
4)Plug the TF card into the unit.
5)Go to Settings-->About device-->System updates
After the updating complete.
6)Try to open the GPS app to see if it can work properly or not.
If not,please install the IGO apk again. There is a video to tell you how to install the IGO map.

Do you guys find that the 10" screen is too large? Maybe a 7 or 8" one would be enough, and would leave room for a physical volume knob and button or two. I don't want to watch movies on the HU, just play music and maybe do GPS.

Do you also miss the volume knob?
I don't think it is too large. I mean, an 8" screen is probably plenty... but It doesn't look like they tried to cram too much screen into the space and it's nice to have icons large enough to press without accidentally hitting another.
As for the volume knob - I rarely used mine before, and if I did it was only to turn the volume down quickly which I can now do with a pause button. The steering wheel controls work just as quick as on the stock head unit so no issues with that.
Like Steve say i dont think is too large, considering the tesla have a 17 inch one LOL. A 10 is realy good, as for the volume that is so 1970 jaja just kidding. Here is a picture of mine today.
Hey NinjaX, I noticed your Rockford Fosgate sticker on the headunit. Did you put that on yourself?
Are there issues driving the RF system with these? I'm reading that you need a converter cable. How is the audio quality compared to the MMCS? I've read that people had some issues there.

Thanks for posting the update for future reference. Where do you check to see if there are any updates available?
I'm all installed guys. I have the RF with OEM amp and sub and the MITO-02 made it pretty easy to install. If you have any questions I'll be happy to answer.
Some findings so far.
UPDATE: If anyone is having trouble connecting their bluetooth OBD adapter, it seems our head units have trouble connecting to devices that use the MAC address as its broadcast name instead of a name like "OBDII" or something of that nature. I had no luck with my Panlong adapter so I bought a Veepeak. (looks the same, cheapo blue cased mini adapter) but this had a broadcast name I was able to pair too. Also, dash command seems to have trouble because it gets stuck at "Turning Bluetooth on..." which I couldn't find a fix for, but Torque pro and lite work well.
The sub and tweeter adjustments on the MITO make it easy to go louder than the factory head unit.
There is a "factory settings" option in settings, the password is 126.
Bluetooth streaming from your phone is cake, but I'm still having a bit of trouble trying to connect my Bluetooth OBD.
Sometimes it gets stuck and doesn't shut off when the car shuts off, but there is a power button on the unit you can hit to shut it off. So far this only happened to me once.
Overall it was extremely worth it. This car just jumped 10 years into modern-ness.

I put the sticker myself when i removed the old unit. With the latest update there is a section on the cambus setting that can be change to with amp.
