Depending on the situation the DMX4707S can be a nightmare...as of today, the latest update came out in December 2022. Every 8 to 10 weeks I can turn my car off and the unit keeps playing and I have no control over it. Drains the car battery if it sits too long. The installer just tried updating to the latest firmware and it bricked the unit. The local Kenwood rep gave the dealer the OK to put in a new unit and then they successfully installed the latest (Dec 2022) update. Runs great until it doesn't and there are many variables between each customer's installation so it's very hard to pin down a cause...but usually, it's software related as the same thing has happened to others...
@@camusHEARTbreaker My unit was installed just a few weeks before these problems happened, so all I did was bring it back in and the installer had to deal with bricking the unit...then getting a new unit, and finally installing the December 2022 update. Paying $1000 for the installation seemed outrageous UNTIL I ran into problems, now I'm glad I did. I just hope that was the last of the problems, but only time will tell.
i have this radio in my 2011 buick regal cxl turbo......i bought it in june of 2023. Today i had to change the car battery cause it was bad.......now when i turn the car on, everything that was set wasnt set anymore so i had to go back n reset everything. the problem that im having now is when i connect(bluetooth) my phone to the radio, it goes to a screen saver until i tap the screen then goes back to the playlist that i have on my phone. does anyone know how to fix this where it just stays on the playlist thats sync through my phone(my playlist is on youtube)
how to turn off the throbbing commercial for apple play or android. Every few moments it pops up, runs through the commercial then goes away only to pop back up 15 seconds later
When you go from the regular system to Apple CarPlay with the bass setting stay the same if I change them in the graphic equalizer setting? Is Apple CarPlay wireless? And if I turn my car off with Apple CarPlay on will it stay on Apple CarPlay when I turn the car back on or will I have to open it when the screen turns on? Thank you very much
You can customize the equalizer for each function or you can have it the same for all. CarPlay and Android Auto are wired so if you have your phone plugged in it will go back to either.
Have an issue with this radio. A couple months I’ve been having this same problem I can’t hear phones calls through Apple CarPlay or Bluetooth. I can’t hear navigation directions with apple car play and the volume is turned up all the way. The only time I can hear directions is I’m connected to the Bluetooth. I would appreciate it if someone could help or give some tricks on how to fix this. Thank you
Our unit won't even display the USB mirror option. The button stays Grey if that makes sense. Android auto is updated, firmware is current.. Ebrake engaged and still we can't mirror with our dmx4707s. Had a stereo shop do the install. I wonder if something isn't connected? Is there a wire from the deck to the e brake or does it work a different way? Thanks for the upload.
Just got a similar kenwood and really don’t like it .. Playing video via USB locks up during movie play . I’ve tried all kinds of USB drives and it makes no difference.. playing a movie has zero stability..
Got an issue on my dmx4707s. It just froze up when you start up. It just stays on the KENWOOD screen. I tried to reset it in the bottom little hole but it just stays on the KENWOOD start up screen. Can anybody tell me what seems to be the problem?!😫
@@iSimplifiedTech i just tried but i just went to black then the KENWOOD screen appeared again and it just froze in that screen where you can’t access the device.
This Stereo sucked for me. Apple Carplay does not work well with bluetooth. It randomly cuts out for no reason all day. Had to exchange it. The touchscreen is also glitchy. There is a reason it is cheaper than other units

Can this be used without having to connect your phone via wire for Android Auto?

Sounds like a problem with the brake wire, I would recommend installing a brake bypass- so you can have the settings unlocked anytime.
Can you change the background screen, to your own?
Yes i just purchased and installed it in my Jaguar xj8 and I managed to put a jaguar logo as wallpaper
Nice bro

my kenwood increasing volume button suddenly stopped working, can anyone help?
It sounds like this touch screen sucks from all the comments I’m seeing
Will this fit in my 2010 subaru impreza wrx
Mine is muted any tips???
Can you connect android auto or carplay wirelessly?
No unfortunately that’s the sucky part of it
@@2face595 fuck man I wish I woulda read that befor i spent 500 on it 😅😅😭😭😭 never noticed till i got ot all hooked up, oh well lol
@@2face595 thanks for the reply bro
You can get a wireless dongle off of Amazon for 20 dollars or so and run it wireless that way.
@@aaronneefe1736 do you know what its called on amazon?

Try a hard reset by pressing the button with a needle or something thin on the pin hole - bottom left of the display just under the buttons.

@@JohannOfArc sounds like has problems of ready the software probably needs software update🤔
@@elparranderoelparrandero4566 ive tried but wont even update
Did you fix the issue
Bass boost
Is the connection to Apple car play wireless?
Not on this model.
@@iSimplifiedTechso how do u connect it and where do u connect it in the box?
My CarPlay doesn’t show up at all
same was hoping someone would respond
So I believe you have to ground out the green wire to send a signals saying your parking break is off
Can I change the background with the USB port?
You need to connect a usb drive like a thumb drive
Can you get into customize menú in this model ?
Yeah you can. Same sequence but tap to right top corner instead of bottom left.

Can’t seem to get into the Customize menu
Same did u get into it
It's pronounced "base", not "bass"
Apple carplay wireless
