When you move the fiber optic cables from the factory connector into the new connector, it's much easier if you pull the two fiber optic cables out of the sleeve. The black sleeve around the factory cable harness is just a velcro strap, and it's easy to unwrap the harness, separate the two green fiber optic cables, and then re-wrap the sleeve around the remaining wires. By doing this, you don't end up with things being so tight.
@nyst8fmind3 жыл бұрын
That's a good idea, I personally didn't have an issue with the optic cables it was actually fitting the two harness connectors back in. Not enough space behind the NBT unit. Wasn't easy, well... not as easy as the one I installed in the benz 😉

Sir, 4 questions: 1. If I'm not planning to use the SIM card, there any need of adding the 4G antenna? 2. Can I still use the original car GPS antenna for the Android system, or do I need to install also the GPS antenna that came with the Android unit? 3. What's the reason of installing the USB cables if there's one in the center arm rest (which I use to play music)? 4. Should I understand that the Android unit will not play the sound from USB (central arm rest), radio or phone (Bluetooth connected) unless I wire and plug that AUX cable? Thank you and great job in explaining the installation process!
@nyst8fmind3 жыл бұрын
@medalin. If not using sim card then you won't need the antenna. If you want to keep using the factory shark fin antenna Then you need to ask the seller for the GPS antenna splitter. He will try to charge you but try to negotiate. I'm using the splitter I only showed it in the install so you know how it's done. But I didn't pay for the splitter I insisted on getting included ( I was already paying enough). He will include it. Just be persistent. The USB can be used on either system but I opted for the android so I don't have to be switching back and forth, but yes you would only need the USB if you're gonna use it to maybe upgrade the system using the USB instead of an OTA upgrade. Or play media files such as MP3 or videos. Hope this helps

@@nyst8fmind I might have really blown it now. the zlink wouldnt connect at all so i unpaired the phone, then the zlink would only display waiting and the iphone wouldnt pick it. Using the 2018 code i reset the whole system to standard. now its half Chinease, many functions have disapeared and after an hours frustrations i've given in for the night. the 2018 code did allow me to resize the original displat to fit the new screen though so thats something. All good fun. Many thanks for the code.

@@pickering9200 I didn't mean to reset it to factory. There is an option under settings where it says factory then you enter the code in there select bluetooth then android not oem. For the display you go to car display and you look for the one that best fits your car. I have another video where you can see all of these settings.

hi bro! how to insert the sim card into the carplay screen?
@nyst8fmind3 жыл бұрын
Ohhhhh man. That was the worst part of the install. I was like I wish I did it before hand. You have no way of knowing when it's going in the wrong way. And there is a gap that you might insert it into a dead space. So the main thing is insert and feel for a spring and the resistance. If you don't feel it is wrong.

the only thing good about this product is the screen look, and about the system and UI it does not worth to replace I prefer the iDrive Professional System over horribly designed Android UI
@nyst8fmind3 жыл бұрын
I won't go into a debate about android design, but the beauty of this screen is that you're not replacing your idrive system. You get to keep your stock idrive interface and functionality. So it's a win win.

I personally decided not to use the system for phone calls because the poeple I called gave me the same feedback regarding too much echo and background noise. So I stuck with the BMW BT for phone. Voice Apps I honestly didn't try any so can't help you there. The sim card as I mentioned in the comments few times. It was the worst part of this whole thing. I got so frustrated with it I almost gave up. It's not recognizing it because it's inserted the wrong way. You can't tell it's wrong because the tray let's you insert it any way. There is only one way to know for sure. As you're inserting the sim card you have to feel a spring resistance pushing the simcard the opposite direction. Like you would feel when inserting an SD card in a device. If you don't feel that then it's wrong. This is as much as I can help. 😞
