I don't think this feature is available?

You have the ability to link other aspects, but I don't recall seeing anywhere on the Nav that would enable mirroring.

you need to buy a video signal input for the navi screen like Dom's TVandNAV2GO or Navtool, etc.

Get the video out from your android and plug it into the module. I have on on my 3G TL for the DVD player & Backup Camera.

I can chime in w my experience on this matter.... so I ordered doms nav2go unit and for one it won't even work on my 09 hard drive based navigation. Spent a good amount of time on the phone w him trying to figure this out and after he had me open the box and flip some dip switches. We did get video on the screen but iirc colors were off and the video scrolled left to right constantly. He tried looking over his schematics to no avail and finally just gave up and said it wouldn't work. He said the unit works just fine on the dvd drive based navigation. I had also ordered the mirror link unit and tried it while the off color video scrolled across screen but the data is too slow and it cuts out alot, like it gets very pixelated etc. so I'd say until the new technology of in car mirroring/wifi gets more advanced doubt it will work very well.

I'm still unable to play movies on my navi. I made my own set up on my 3g to watch videos, tried same on the 4g and it doesn't work. Not a clue as to y, has me stumped.

Does anyone know if the navtool unit will for sure work on a 4g w hdd based navi, or anybody know of anything that will work?

NavTool works on the 09 and up TL. There are a few guys on here that have it installed. Mixed reviews I believe. I have one, but it doesn't have input for a phone.
