I did the extremeRate purple shell swap, AMA
  • Overall, do you think it was worth it? I love the look but am worried about damaging my deck (I'm fairly experienced with computer and phone repair, but there's always the chance of damage) and being unhappy with the end result.

    I think I may just go with the back cover from Jsaux and call it a day.

  • I have the Motorola adapter and it works very well, but there are a couple quirks that I didn't discover until I had it:

    1. Since I'm using wireless to connect to AA and the USB port on my car stays on for a while after I turn off my car, if I make or receive a call right after leaving my car it will still use my car instead of my phone, and since the call notification is hidden when using Android auto the usual button to switch it is inaccessible. The solution is to disable wifi momentarily, which severs the AA connection. Not a huge deal, but can be frustrating in the moment.

    2. Battery drain from AA can be significant, so you may find that you need to plug in your phone anyway, negating the point of using the wireless adapter. I solved this by putting a wireless charger in my car, but YMMV. The other benefit here is that you can use a quick charger while on AA instead of the slow charge provided by your car's USB port. For short drives this problem is no big deal, but if you have a daily commute or spend any significant amount of time driving on a given day you may find your battery much lower than you would normally expect.

    Like I said, these issues haven't been enough to make me go back, I like the simplicity of getting in my car and AA just launches. Sorry if any of this was confusing, I'm happy to answer any questions!
