Ehh I’d say the mic is comparable to the factory mic. Both not so good. And unfortunately I don’t have any discount codes just yet on their head unit. They do have a newer one that runs Android vs Vivid and I hear is less glitchy.
Had my dasaita for about 4 years now..constant battery drain. Druck dead after 2 days. Definitely the unit/canbus. When removed and factory head unit is reinstalled truck is great.
I’ve had mine for about three months now for some reason it keeps resetting itself sometimes it doesn’t even turn on. I have to turn my truck off lock it let it sit for a few minutes start it for it to come back on. What’s the best way to keep it updated? Even after I said the clocks reset itself and now it’s five hours off don’t know why it keeps turning on and off and doing this.😢
You're having the exact same problems as me. Shortly after installing - mine started going black and resets fairly often. I am going to do a video trying the new update. It may be worth reaching out to customer service (they are great). They told me if the update doesn't work, they would send me an android unit versus the VIVID as it has less bugs.
I'm actually working through it with Dasaita now, and going to try the update this weekend. I'll give it a couple week's to make sure it works, then upload a video!@@Cadeternie
I liked your video and it helped me make the decision to purchase this head unit. It took a little bit to figure out some of the connections. The first harness I tried wouldn't fit the connectors, so I used the other one that came in the box, and those fit. It took me a while before I realized I needed to detach the carplay box from the harness that didn't fit to the other. However, the main problem is that the radio won't turn on at all. I've quadruple checked that everything is plugged in tightly, but it still won't turn on when turning on the truck. Is there a step that I could have missed or is it common that these units can come faulty?
Hmm is it the radio only, or the whole unit won’t turn on? If it’s the radio, there is an antenna plug from your truck that will plug in. It looks like a thicker black wire with a 90 degree bend and round metal plug. If it won’t turn on at all, I would for sure contact their customer service. Pictures would be helpful and they should answer within a day or so.
I'm have a terrible time with this radio. I hooe you can help. 2019 Tundra and the kit came with two main harnesses. One has the wrong connectors so I am using the other one. I can not get my back up camera or my steering g wheel controls to work. Do you have any suggestions on what I may be doing wrong?
I wish I could help more, but my install was seamless. It sounds like a connection rather than a firmware issue. I’d take a pic of the connectors and send it to their help email. They are super quick to answer.
Check out my second video. I did a hard reset by unplugging the battery and emailed dasaita for a firmware update. Since installing, I’ve have no issues!
Whats the benefit of spending $100 more for 8gb Ram & 256gb Rom storage vs 6gb Ram & 64gb Rom storage.. is this needed for the function of the unit or just for storing apps etc?
I wish I included a picture of how I had it hooked up. There were three yellow AUX connections and I can’t remember which two I chose to connect. You may just have to swap yours.
I bought the G12 for my 2018 Tundra. It has been a horrible experience so far. I didn't find the install too bad. But now it is up and running it just continues to restart/reboot over and over. I tried battery disconnect, pulled the fuse, countless RST 30 Sec reboots, reset back to factory setting, tried to update the firmware per the forum instruction countless times with no success. I ended up removing mine from the truck as the unit is basically a paper weight and until I can get some customer/technical support this thing is unusable.
@@nickockenfels6058 dang, that’s a shame to hear. Before I did my update I felt the same, but has since been problem free. Hoping they get you squared away or refunded soon my man.
so how did you get the amplifier remote wire connected? I'm in a 2021 and have everything connected, everything working with the exception of the door speakers due to the triggering of the stock amp under the passenger seat. This is a non-JBL Tundra.
@@AJLoDato22 I found another user on the Dasaita forums with the same issue. It went to a dead end with no solution and I reached out to Dasaita and they are sending a new wiring harness. It's basically not triggering the OEM amplifier but everything else works fine. I also ordered a MIC converter to 3.5mm so I can run my own mic. Hope to get this all function in a week or so!
@@ducsauce85 i got it working with a new harness sent from Dasaita. The pluses are fit and finish, but i upgraded the wifi antenna to a full spectrum and finding the right combo of connectors for the stock GPS antenna were challenging. But everything works, lots of customizations yields a solid unit. I need to upgrade speakers now!
@@BrentRivers similar thoughts here. No issues aside from small glitches from time to time. Has been awesome for the couple of months I’ve had it. Speakers are in the pipeline for me, too!

@@AJLoDato22the entire radio doesn’t turn on.
Any updates on the steering wheel controls?
The steering controls work great.
Great intall video. Did you go with the 64gb or 256gb unit?
Thanks! Truthfully, I don’t exactly know. It was whatever was offered in the Amazon link.
Does all your steering wheel buttons still work?
Yup they work with it, just plug and play
Do you still have access to all the vehicle specific settings like the light timers and whatnot?
Not from what I see. But I don’t remember seeing them in my factory unit, too (I could be wrong).
Will this unit accept a SXV300 SiriusXM Tuner so I can keep my XM radio?
I checked mine today and don’t see any SiriusXM options. It may be a good question to email to their customer service.
Does this unit have multiple preamp outputs for adding amplifiers?
I wish I knew, but this is out of my wheelhouse/over my head!

@AJLoDato22 how dis you get in touch with them?,I can't find a number and so far, no reply to my email.
That's what happens to me, how did you fix it?
@@franklynmercedes6404 you have to take the canbus from the other wiring harness and plug it into the one you're using.
Will this unit allow the original tundra microphone to be used?
Unfortunately no, this head unit doesn’t connect to the factory mic
When it ask to set your factory settings before changing the head unit What does that mean?
I’m not sure where that prompted you. When you plugged the dasaita in?
when adding a front mounted camera is there a save option for any vids on the camera?
I don’t have a front mount camera, but from the app I don’t see the function to save videos
Has there been any upgrades to be able to use the OEM mic ?
I haven’t checked since I bought mine. Others on this video thread may have some insight!
I installed my dasaita a few months ago and all of sudden my screen went black and won’t come back on… any solutions
Check out my second video. I did a hard reset by unplugging the battery and emailed dasaita for a firmware update. Since installing, I’ve have no issues!
Can you use the oem microphone instead of theirs?
I wasn’t able to find a mic plug in for the factory mic. That’s my recommendation to them for all of their head units - it would be a game changer.
Always the same with these China made electronics at this level. Works great! *3 months later, WHOOPS!
I have had one of these in my 4Runner for 4 years with no issues… where do you think Pioneer and Kenwood are made or sourced?
The buttons at the bottom, like volume, are they physical buttons or just a dedicated position of the flat screen?
They are not physical buttons, or part of the touch screen. They are like Haptic Touch buttons. Not as good as physical buttons, but so far no issues.
Whats the benefit of spending $100 more for 8gb Ram & 256gb Rom storage vs 6gb Ram & 64gb Rom storage.. is this needed for the function of the unit or just for storing apps etc?
I don’t see the benefit for how I use it at least. I would think it’s for Apps which would require you to have a SIM card, too.
@@AJLoDato22 thanks.. are you still happy since your follow up video in January?
@@AJLoDato22 also are you able to screen mirror to this thing from your phone?
@@cory0333 Yup still really happy with it over stock. The small annoying things, are still annoying but would certainly buy it again.
@@cory0333 confirmed - it does have screen mirror. Hope this helps!
What happens to the maintenance reminders after installation? Use a scanner to reset ?
For at least a 2015, my maintenance reminders show up on my gauge cluster. I reset it from there.
Finished my install today. I saw a ground wire that came with it. Didn’t find where to put the ground wire.
Hi. Did you do anything different when plugging the wires (yellow) reverse camera? My reverse camera doesnt come on.
I wish I included a picture of how I had it hooked up. There were three yellow AUX connections and I can’t remember which two I chose to connect. You may just have to swap yours.
@AJLoDato22 got it to work, the canbus thingy was on the other set of wires and had to unhook it. Thanks for responding.
can you hear phone calls through your speakers when using carplay?
Yup the sound comes through the speakers. It’s the mic quality that is bad, so I typically just talk on my phones speaker phone while driving
Is there a different mic you can get that works better?
I have a 2014 Tundra with XM, I'd like to keep XM, can I connect the XM tuner to this?
As my truck doesn’t have XM, I’m not totally sure. I did look up some forums and folks say there is an adaptor you will need from Crutchfield
I’d love to know this as well.
How is the back up camera?
Watch 8:25 if you’d like to see it. Essentially the exact same quality/picture as factory, just enlarged.
Have you figured out how to keep the music going while in reverse?
I actually think there’s a setting by you have to turn off. Mine did that too initially.
Will this work for a non jbl/gps basic 2019 Tundra SR. My current unit doesn't have xm or hd radio either
Yup it should, mine is the non-JBL. They also offer a newer version that is android over Vivid operating software.
Do they have the same unit for a 2011 tundra crewman sr5?
It’s not this one, but it’s similar. Search ‘2011 Tundra Dasaita’ on Amazon. It has buttons on the left side versus the bottom.
Does this radio maintain Sirius/XM support?
It doesn’t have a direct plugin for either. I believe you’d have to download the app on your phone and stream it that way.
@@AJLoDato22 Thanks for the quick reply. I don't always have cell coverage. Still trying to decide between the Vivid and Android versions.
Nice video!
@@drfous thanks! Any aftermarket option will be light years better than factory. Best of luck on your search!
How did you connect back camera?
If you have a factory backup camera, when you connect the main harness it is within that. So just a plug and play.
Where did you mount the included mic?
Initially mounted just behind the steering wheel by the gauge cluster. Since has been removed.
Hi, What year is your Tundra ?
Mine is a 2015
Does this have SirrusXM or can you add it?
I don’t see it as an option, but others may be able to give better feedback.
How can bypass the video with out ebreak
I don’t understand your question.
@@AJLoDato22I think he means this unit won't let you play videos and drive. Radio is wired to emergency brake. Safety feature.
@@ducsauce85 ahh, I think you’re right. Unfortunately I don’t know how to but I’m sure there is a way.
Will these play videos will you drive?
I believe if you buy a SIM card for it. It has all of the streaming apps but no service
I’m trying to install the g12 in my truck right now and could use some help from someone who has done it before

Can you just use the factory microphone?
For some reason the factory mic won’t plug into the head unit
@@AJLoDato22 did you ever end up upgrading the mic it came with? I've had some people say it's hard to hear on me calls
Does this work with the JBL system?
I don’t know for sure, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t. May be best to dig into some forums for folks that have JBL!
Will this work with JBL Premium sound systems?
Yup, it should!
