I was concerned about the head unit blocking my view while driving. Until I saw your POV camera shot while driving which was perfect. Good Stuff man.

Thanks for the 15%, I bought this and had it professionally installed on my daughters 14 328i, makes the car look so much more modern.

CarLetter app (CarPlay) does not run at a native 2560x720 resolution resulting in the blurry UI. Not sure about Android Auto, but given that CarPlay/AA is probably going to be the most used feature on these screens, this is a huge miss. Can't believe you did not notice this in your review. Returning mine.

Quick question where did you put the GPS antenna and the microphone during your installation?

Thanks for the video I have a bunch of question. I am already running an android unit but wanted to know if it's worth the upgrade. My questions are: 1) Does it do a cold boot up from scratch every time you turn on the car? Or does it have a quick wake up feature like a tablet does from sleep? 2) If it does have to cold boot up each time how long does it take? 3) Does it auto start playing on board music? 4) how the does bluetooth function on it? Is it extremely disabled? For example can you connect say a game pad to it easily? 5) Do they offer a 360 camera feature? 6) Does it have a sim card / memory card slot? Thanks in advance if you get a chance to answer these. 😊

Damn do they have this equivalent for like Nissans

Thanks, I used your 15% off code and installed mine today. Need to go back and plug the AUX and mic in but so far so good. Is there a way of managing firmware updates for these?

Hi, Ayy, after I watched this video, I bought and installed the Xtrons head unit on my 2016 BMW 428i. On the other hand, as you mentioned, the head unit can not detect the OEM reserve camera signal. Would you please teach me how to fix it? Appreciate. Daniel

Hey I’m having issues with my factory reverse camera. I explored the setting but still could not get it to work. Any help would be great.

I didn’t install my mic either. Just when a call comes in I select the bmw as the output. Works fine, then when I’m done I switch audio back to CarPlay. Not a huge inconvenience, also I don’t have to have the ugly supplied mic

out of curiosity does your car have microphones installed from the factory? shouldnt the head unit use them if they are there?

Does anyone know if it'll update the directions in the heads up display when using the screen?

Do you have the instructions about the OEM camera? I was looking in your description and couldn’t find it

I’m having an issue where it says no signal in reverse.

I have this unit and i love it the only thing is how do you get the 360 camera system to work. I have the 12 pin connector pluged in for all 4 cameras to connect to. I recently found the hidden menu and have tried to video about it but no one has a video on it. I think i might have accidentally deleted the app but when i went to the hidden menu and tired to follow this one video now the car icon comes up but it keeps flickering idk if i have the screen ratio set wrong or what? Any advice would be greatly appreciated

How do i access the settings to set oem backup Camera ?

I tried your instructions to fix ratios and it stopped sound now I can’t get it to work. How do I get in touch with them

What resolution did you choose for the iDrive? I have 2014 535i F10 so thinking it will be same as yours. I’m presently in “auto” but have made the other changes and it’s not quite as good as yours.

@ayyyman_ for Bluetooth audio rather than aux, are you saying you were able to pair the head unit to BMW's bluetooth? I've been trying to do just that with my unit but it never prompts to confirm the passkey on the head unit side.

Is car play part of the unit itself or does the car have to have carplay? Considering buying this for my F13 because i have the super small screen without carplay etc.

Does it integrate with the steering wheel radio/phone functions?

You will have to disable the "disable video in motion" setting (it is there to not distract the driver), but after that you can play yt just like on your phone (or through it xD). I had my default screen also on video in motion disabled, but I am not sure if that is a requirement or if the xtrons unit overrides it. (If it is required you will need an obd2 scanner/coder like carly or bimmercode)

when i try to go back to the oem screen it just goes black how do i fix??
