Thanks all for the replies.
I have ARPSDroid and the MobiLinkd TNC.
I was hoping there was a way (even if a touch on the bleeding edge) to
get the APRS data on a vehicle display instead of using the cellphone
/tablet.

I'm using APRSDroid with the FTM-400 to display the data received by
the radio. The connection to the radio is made with a Yaesu serial
cable and a bluetooth serial adapter. This provides output only from
the radio, as Yaesu does not implement a full TNC.

Hello Ed,
I don't think that anyone has packaged and submitted Xastir to the
Google
App Store.
The only Android APRS app I'm aware of is APRSDroid.?? I use it in
Internet
mode on my phone occasionally but don't know if it will connect to a
radio
or not.
As for replacing the OS on your vehicle computer, you'd have to see
if there
are any customer forums that discuss customizing your make/model of
vehicle.
And especially if the OS is doing special things in the background
that a
replacement OS might not know about.
Your best bet might be to see if you can leave your vehicle computer
alone
and just connect a second video source to the screen.?? Then you can
use a
laptop or Raspberry Pi to run an open OS and Xastir as well as have
physical
connections to a radio.

How do I get Xastir installed on a vehicle computer running Android
and then
link my FTM-400 to the system so that the APRS is displayed on the
screen?
Or are there Linix based vehicle systems that can be installed to
replace
the factory Android version?
