[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8852530, member: 674149"] JUST BRAINSTORMING HERE: Yeah, you might also want to compare the backs of both. (You just said "android radio", is this an amazon special? What's the model?) There are adapters that have 90 degree bends coming out, because if the new head unit moves the antennae cable, it could move it to a place where something is causing interference. I've had RCA cables have resistance/a ground loop whine, when installed because the head unit moved them from where the factory placement was, and they now had an obstruction pushing on the cable plugs. - I'm not sure if that is even possible that could happen with that cable, but you could test this by pulling the head unit out of its mount some with all the wires still connected, and trying.
