My original system did not have hands free calling and I haven't been able to find it on the android. You can dial through the android screen, or back out to the original MB system fully, or dial through the speedometer phone screen while android screen / music is up and is running, I have had various results with where the sound comes out (occasionally from the small side speaker and not the regular speakers) and volume / mic issues. I have not gotten the phone system quite figured out yet. Google maps volume can be too loud as a result. When switching back to original system there is sometimes a volume discrepancy, since through the android system you have two volumes to adjust, the android output and the MB volume. You can still switch the steering wheel window display to other screens while using the android unit (AMG screen, mileage, phone, etc and navigate in them) The steering wheel controls - up/down track and volume up/down work, everything else is pretty much touchscreen, I dont have a apple phone, but thee apparently is a carplay adapter available. Currently radio and ipod work with original system only. Switching back and forth to original system works well.

Audio from you tube comes out of vehicle speakers. No problem accessing internet / websites such as /you tube, or google play and installing programs. Tethering/internet works via phone hotspot, but I haven't got it to work via hard wired/usb cable to phone. Streaming music works, either streaming from phone to a included Bluetooth music program on android, or by installing spotify/etc directly onto android and opening the program from there. Torque pro works and accesses unit's gps for potion. GPS works, either with built in the map program (kinda junky) or with google maps with tethering. The touch screen is pretty easy to reach/use from driver's position. So I have used the system for about 3 weeks now:
