    Hi Ron,

    If you can enter the background, try to roll back the previous version first.

    1. First use the mobile phone to connect to the adapter’s wifi / auto or vol’s WIFI signal (varies with the original car)

    2. Enter the password 12345678

    3. Enter 192.168.50.2 with the browser that comes with the phone to enter the background.

    4. Try rolling back the adapter version

    If the problem can not be solved, please contact us via email((Our email address: support@carlinkitcarplay.com).)

You are requested for help in guiding me with step wise actions that I need to take in order to get my aforesaid Dongle working satisfactorily.

    I want to scream. I have spent 2.5 hours sitting in my car. I purchased a 4.0 direct from the website and it appears to have been lost in transit. I ordered a new 4.0 from Amazon. I got it today. I have tried everything in the FAQ for the 4.0 and nothing works. I have a 2018 Porsche Cayman. The bluetooth connects and the wifi connects, but Android Auto never fully loads. If I push the radio home buttom to go back out and then tap the Car Play icon it goes back in to what should have come up for the last screen. When Android does appear to be connected, I can see Spotify and other android auto icons at the very bottom of the screen and nothing else above that. The music is sometimes very laggy. If I click on the music note at the bottom, nothing happens. If I then click on the radio home button it goes back to the radio menu. If I click on the home button again, it goes back into Android auto, but will now show the “what do you want to listen to strip”. If I tap on a new playlist nothing happens. Then I click the home button to go out and tap on the Car Play icon to go back in and the new album will start playing, but again, only the bottom strip shows up.

    I have tried all the suggestions in the FAQ. I changed sync. I changed the FPS. I changed the resolution. Everything. Something is wrong with the way the program is interacting with the Porsche PCM. Please help.
