FS: 7-Inch In Dash Touch Screen

[RichB]

Up for sale is my 7 inch Double Din touch screen radio. I bought this radio about 2 months ago with the hopes of getting Magden gauges but that fell through which is why I am selling this radio.

Features include:
*Built-in Bluetooth /TV tuner /AM/FM
*iPod interface ready (cable included)
*Compatible with DVD, VCD, CD, MP3, MPEG-4, CD-R, WMA, and JPEG playbacks
*Supports CDC
*USB port and SD card slot
*Intelligent steering wheel control
*Electronic anti-shock protection
* Full function remote control

There are 2 AV outputs, aux audio and video input, and RCA audio output. This radio does not have GPS software preloaded.

Note: This radio does work with Bose but requires a wiring change. Let me know if you will be using this with Bose.

I am looking for $325 Shipped. PM me if you're interested. Thanks

what would be the estimated costs for the gps and antenna? i have a huge sd card and wouldnt mind buying this unit pending gps pricing. how much did you pay for this head unit btw?

[RichB]

I did more research on the GPS antennas and this Radio doesn't have a place to connect an external antenna. You can still load the GPS software using an SD card but I am not sure how good the signal would be.

I updated my original post and reduced the price some more. Any questions, let me know.

I'm surprised you said there is no jack for gps antenna;

bump for updated price too if any.

I didn't get the GPS option which is probably why it doesn't have the antenna jack. Here it is in my car:



You want me to get a pic of the back too?

wierd it has a gps touch option right on the main screen with no gps jack....i dont get it.

it only states gps via sd card in the user manual? if this is true has anyone had any experience withgps via sd card?

[RichB]

Yea, it will load the GPS software with the SD card but when you look through the manual it says that the Antenna connection is optional.

Bump. Price updated!

so did you try loading SW and see if it finds satellites?
if so there is everything in place but external antenna jack can be always soldered in - should not be a big problem.

can you confirm gps sw actually receives data?

I have not tried to load the software myself but this unit has a SAMSUNG S3C2440A-40 Chip set with the following features:

*GPS Store space Main frequency: 400MHZ
*Memory: 64MB
*Store space: 64MB (can external to 4GB)
*Navigation software store: SD card
*Operation system: WINCE5.0 CORE can read 3D map

Any GPS software that works with Windows CE 5.0 will work with this radio.

well we're talking about different things here: would the sw run and second which is most important - would the sw detect hardware and receive coordinates etc.

I bet IGO for instance would be running fine but would it function? that's the question.
if there is gps hardware in this unit then you may try selling it for what you ask (or even more) but if not it may not be that interesting deal for the price (for roughly hundred and fifty more you get new unit with gps and better screen resolution, better sw etc);

I understand you took it off already but I think any potential buyer would like to know the answer to above questions. just my two cents here

I thought I was answering your question but I will try to clarify. Yes I think the software can be loaded and yes I think it will run. When I go to the GPS option on the home screen it tells me that the SD card isn't installed. The only thing that this unit is missing is a connection for an external GPS antenna.

The only thing I am uncertain about is if you need an external antenna for the software to work correctly. What I do know is that an External GPS antenna connection was an option that is not included with the radio I am selling.

Did that answer it?

sw can run but if there is no gps hardware you will have no data.
I honestly don't think someone would include/exclude just antenna when selling such units. It does not make much sense to me. But China is country of contrasts lol so everything possible )

if you run gps sw and it reads you location then it should not be a big deal to wire external antenna. But answer is not clear if sw would receive data or not. And this is the key question.
