[@cesarzaragoza916]

It didn't but I had a spare, connected it as instructed and got really good sound, thanks, I appreciate your work.

[@joew.8111]

Not one of the other videos mention the gps splitter cable. Thank you!

[@EUROE-nm9ji]

Man you the man thanks for the great content I really was stress out for like a day and there it was the first video on it when searched on you tube 🙌 that splitter really did it . How did you get that code for the screen shifting to the right

[@TimothyTrisnadhama]

Hey man, great video!! So have you installed the backup camera as you mentioned in the video? THanks!

[@CTMiniDude]

Evan Thanks for doing this. I installed the Avin unit in my 2010 e61 and it works pretty well. I remember seeing a video that showed how to launch CarPlay when selecting one of the main red tiles (nav, apps, settings etc). I want to launch Carplay when I select Navigation. Can you show where I can find this? Thanks again

[@apexintlsound68]

Are you able to play video with this unit. I currently have my E60 modified to play video but I like this android head unit.

[@brent4770]

If you have a doppler radar app will it come up so you can watch a storm while you drive?

[@2776tg]

do you have to use gps splittter or can you bypass straight to new deck and just use the gps on that or does it require the factory gps for it to work? Thinking it still should work on the new considering its a tablet with wifi

[@Fodi97]

Bro I hope you see this, love your videos. Could you please update the link to the springs at the auto trunk-open videos? It's broken

[@EvanGoyuk]

Bálint Fodor thank you for letting me know. Yes I will take care of it!

[@garywjensen1]

I have a BMW 530xi 8.8 screen, what model should I use that will fit in the space currently used by the old one? It has a professional navigation system installed. What extras need to be installed, or might enhance the system that you would install? Thank you, Gary

[@jabilmiah4289]

Can I ask why you may need the aux splitter. My car came with the parrot device, so not sure if that's connected to aux, and if I will need splitter?

[@1973rhidalgo]

Another great video, thanks guys! About the Aux cable spliter, I understand that one end goes to the AUX port behind the center console, what about the other end? can you please elaborate on this? Much appreciate it 🙏

[@EvanGoyuk]

That plugs into the radio

[@akz12]

@@EvanGoyuk Hey man i followed your video but i'm having an issue with my sound. Is there any reason why you specifically used the splitter cable instead of just one long aux cable? I have no sound coming from the car play unit but all sound from my i drive works. I've noticed when i try to set the aux volume on my CIC it allows me to adjust it but keeps resetting back to 0.

[@siga87]

@@akz12 have you solved the sound problem? I have no sound with car play. Do I have to plug a cable into my original aux connector? Best regards

Have you done the front camera on the BMW yet? If you did, please point me to the right link. Thanks

I see it has a purple and red wire at the head unit, which wire color do you connect to the red wire from the camera? Thanks

[@Mr231buick]

Hello E van, I have a 2009 BMW E60, 535I, I have tried repeatedly to get the Bluetooth to work on my 2022 Avin stereo that I installed using your video as a guide, during your video, you touch on the auxiliary connection but it’s blurry and not quite clear to me if this is a three connection splitter or just an interconnect from audio out to the auxiliary port in the center console, if it’s a three connection wire I would assume it’s two males and one female, our vehicle has the CCC unit and everything works except for Bluetooth, any help or advice would be appreciated.

[@kazirahman365]

Hi mate i have recently got one fitted just a slight issue i’m have with watching youtube videos in full screen i have tried pinching the screen to adjust but only once worked but no luck now

Thanks for the video, I have the same unit for my BMW E90 I set it up the other day but I am having a major issue whenever I receive a call the Bluetooth screen take over the radio and I am locked out from using any other app. Until I end the call, Waze navigation stop moving and stop giving direction. I cannot keep the call going and get any other app on the radio. Same thing happen if I’m using android auto, if you don’t mind can you please do a test on your unit and see if you are using Waze and receive a call if you’re radio locked up. Can you use any other app while in the car over Bluetooth. look forward to your answer thank you

I recently installed this head unit in my 2006 e61. It has no aux connection. I connected everyhing and I have no Bluetooth sound but fm radio is working from the original set up. Whatever sound that is coming from the head unit is not reaching the speakers. Do you have any idea what this can be. I dont care to use an aux cable. I'm fine with Bluetooth and/or USB. I'm assuming there is a setting somewhere that will correct this. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks

Interested in hearing what you think as well, Evan

[@JD-zd8xt]

I'm at the point that I exhausted all possibilities and found no other solution other them connecting an aux connection. After installing everthing it still didn't work. Took it to someone to code it and it still didn't work. Now I have to take it to bmw to update the firmware and then code it in. Still waiting for the free time to do that.

What city are you in brother?

[@liquidstudios-gamer]

Great Video but you lose a lot of the classic functionality built into the original unit for reporting of the vehicle. Whether it is worth it is another question. Great video, thanks.

[@aznazguy]

Since you can still access the original system, what functionality are you losing?

[@rivolinho]

@@aznazguy The question is will the original system as seen on this unit still actually report service information, engine oil status etc etc.

[@aznazguy]

@@rivolinho Think of it as a replacement monitor with two inputs. One input is the same as OEM. When you've selected that input, you're seeing the same system. So yes. The other input is the Android side. The original system's CPU and all that is in the head unit below the OEM screen (CD slot, hard drive, etc), not in the screen that's replaced. Another analogy is replacing a regular TV with a smart TV that has a Netflix app. You can still watch what you could watch before with your non-smart TV from the HDMI/cable/antenna inputs, but you add the ability to watch Netflix through the smart TV's app (as long as the smart TV has internet access). For some android head unit features, it is your paired smart phone that provides the internet/GPS/mobile network connection, or you can on some of them have a SIM card in the head unit.
