    Now you're just being silly... Everyone knows it's because you weren't polite enough to Siri

    Charger installed, flashes orange

    You may need a VIN # to activate and use the Lucid Cloud, I can't quite remember. I think I had my VIN # and was able to have it do a SW update w/o actually having the car. The entire process of configuring the HCS is horrible. I cannot believe they actually released something that works the...

    Charger installed, flashes orange

    Hi, I initially had the Home Connected Charger installed in December ahead of my car delivery. Lucid ended up having to ship 4 chargers in total. The first 3 glowed Orange after booting up. From my understanding it's a bad board and the only fix is to get a new unit that doesn't have the bad...

    I don’t have Netflix but the Netflix app is loaded on a Carlinkit upon initial boot up, so should work just fine. I have installed a Hulu, Disney+, ESPN+, BBC iPlayer, Plex, HBO+, Prime Video - all working just fine. BBC works via ExpressVPN which I also have installed. Simone of these apps were...

    It just plugs into one of the usb ports and stays inside the center console

    CarPlay is here! - Megathread

    The Carlinkit simply plugs into either one of the USB connections. Once it boots, the Lucid thinks it’s communicating to a direct wired iPhone. Attaching some additional photos of it running. There’s an Android app that will connect to your iPhone and allow you to run actual CarPlay through this...

    CarPlay is here! - Megathread

    Hi Everyone, For those interested, I made a comment earlier in the thread on using an Android App called JBV1 with my Valentine One Gen 2 Radar Detector, using the CarlinKit device, for which I received a firmware update last Friday giving it the ability to reconfigure itself to the CarPlay...

    CarPlay is here! - Megathread

    It’s not just about watching video. Both CarPlay and Android Auto work with a very limited number of apps. Using a Carlinkit, virtually any app available in the Android ecosystem can be used. In my case, I want to use the JBV1 app for my Valentine One Gen2. JBV1 is not available for Apple, and...

    CarPlay is here! - Megathread

    No, no jailbreak. The Android tricks the Lucid into thinking it is an iPhone running CarPlay but in reality it is running Android. It then connects back to your iPhone and can run the CarPlay app within its environment. If you go to YouTube you can see people using it in any car that Supports...

    CarPlay is here! - Megathread

    No, the new firmware just released configures it to the Lucid screen. A Carlinkit works with any car that has CarPlay (or Android Auto). It is direct-wired. Once it is plugged in and configured, you can load virtually any Android app on the device you want. There's an app that will connect back...

    CarPlay is here! - Megathread

    Purchased a Carlinkit 12.0 8GB+128GB, 8-Core unit off Amazon. Initially, because of the odd-shaped screen a lot of icons and menu items were not visible. I worked with their support team and yesterday got a firmware update that uses the same screen real estate as CarPlay. Check out the results...

    Homelink issue with gate programming

    For those whose gate code remote transmit signal isn’t being recognized by the Lucid, when I was adding out gate I saw the LED indicating it was transmitting but the car wasn’t picking it up. I changed the battery in the remote and the next time I tried it, worked like a charm!

    Also to mention: I have 3 garage doors with older Chamberlin openers. A few years ago, I added the Meross Smart Garage Door Opener Remote, which supports Alexa and HomeKit (I use both). The Meross openers continue to work flawlessly with CarPlay running. Because I have had these integrated with...

    Pilot screen and side panel display went to a Lucid wallpaper 😊

    If you Wiretaped into the overhead panel, that circuit has nothing to do with the screens - those are on a completely different circuit. I have a Wiretap taped into the overhead panel and have never seen this screensaver or had an issue.

    Floor mats!

    Hi - here are the graphite mats in my Touring. I ordered and received them in early Jan even before I had the car delivered. I think they look good, and work well here in Florida. I've heard some owners in the northern climates dealing with the snow/salt/slush/etc they would prefer WeatherTech...

    Free software is limited to 4 years

    My prediction: CarPlay will be available in year 5 once the monthly SW subscription kicks in :(

    Glass Canopy: To Tint or Not to Tint

    I also have 70 on both the windshield and rear overhead window. Turned out great using Ceramic Pro here in Melbourne.
