Well, I think my unit is a dud, and Atoto’s customer service is horrible. Having GPS, WIFI and USB connectivity issues, sound stops working occasionally having to do a factory reset every time to get it to work again and now the network time doesn’t sync either. I was in the 90 day warranty period when I filed the claim with Atoto, but all they want to do is run tests and for me to send in videos and pictures for them to review. And to say a lot is lost in translation is an understatement. Unfortunately they discontinued all these models as well, which is probably why they are giving me the run around to replace it. This troubleshooting is too time consuming, frustrating.
What model do you have?

I just asked them to send me a replacement or a refund, my claim was within the 90 day warranty period and I’m not their hired tech. They can do all the diagnosing they want when they send me a return label to send it back to them. We’ll see what they say, but I’m not holding my breath….

My holding off on buying one of these units has caused them to send you the unit they specifically built for me...
Hope it works out for you!

After Jason rescued me and I got to see his Atoto in action I've been wanting one, but I have an expensive one installed now minus the nice extra features.
I would get one and install the other in my daily driver, but I'm looking for a semi to replace my hotshot truck so whatever I buy would be for it.
So it's on hold for now. My daily driver has a flip-out one I originally installed in my 96 F350 which may be what the semi will have to use since old semi's generally had a single DIN radio if they had anything at all.
Maybe Jason can win the lottery and buy me a nice new semi with all the fancy trimmings!

Did anybody ever find a good screen protector for the atoto head units? The one that came with it went all that great. And I don't get the point of the fuzzy / blurry one that came with it. I don't know who would want to purposefully blur their screen. I've been loving my A6 pro. So happy I got it.

I did not install the included screen protector and have no plans to install one. Although, you can get the diagonal measurement and the vertical and horizontal measurements and possibly find one suited for your use.
If you find one, post a link here for others to consider and/or decide on.

I've had my Galaxy S9+ for 5-6 years now with no screen protector. I carry it in my hip pocket. So unless you are hauling some really wild Alabama farm girls around, I really doubt you need one.
Go to Wally World and find one for a tablet with a larger screen and cut it to fit. Probably won't protect it from them farm girls though...

Okay we need a picture of your back please. It sounds like you've been clawed up pretty good.

@Tpayne621 It looks like you've got quite a few interesting interior mods installed in your truck.
How about creating a build thread, to walk us back down your memory's lane, detailing all the different things you've changed or added to your interior?
I'm seeing updated and painted I/P bezel, updated lower dash, upfitter switches, 6-position TS style switch, digital volt meter, and one heckuva BAAS (Big Azz Android Screen).
Your 10+ inch BAAS installation is deserving of further discussion as well. That's an AFG magnet.
Your attention to detail is self-evident, given how clean and tidy all of your updates appear... like the P3 tucked into the pocket.
A belated Welcome to FTE!
