    I did the downgrade, side loaded a load of apps and then upgraded a couple of days afterwards, zero problems and very happy with the results, since January 9th.

     

    Short story: mid December.

    I saw on FB a guy advertising a rear view mirror that is a front and rear camera with 24 hour parking surveillance designed especially for the Seal.( search Sinjet on FB ). I fancied it and went to see him in BKK , he fit the cameras and also the BYD front camera which i had bought previously.

    Together in the deal was unlocking of the screen for sideloading apps but i wasn’t that clued up about this and forgot to ask him anyway so it didn’t get done. ( page 12 this thread ).

    Fast forward to Jan 9th.

    After some failed attempts to side load with others on this thread I returned to BKK and the guy downgraded, loaded whichever apps i wanted FOC and i upgraded a few days later. ( see page 21 this thread ).

     

    The OTA returned me back to the latest version as I had already done an OTA around end of Dec.

     

    Added YouTube, Google Maps, Waze, Brave browser, Google, YouTube music and GBox ( which allows other apps to be downloaded from within GBox ) also Lazada and FB and some others.

    Google Maps can now be used in portrait or landscape not available in Apple CarPlay and i also added the charging station overlay.

    Unlike the BYD browser which can only be used in gear P all apps can now be used on the go including YouTube and anything streamed from the Google or Brave browsers ( not that I would advocate watching videos with the car in motion ).

     

    I can strongly recommend the Sinjet guy ( as well as his rear/front camera setup ) particularly if you are in BKK, he also has a colleague working from Chiang Rai.

     

    If interested PM me and I will pass on his contact details.

    Thanks for the detailed answer!
