Thanks a lot :) we'll upload the video with the user guide in a few days. We'll also share you a link here. Meanwhile, you can take a look at this one here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TaHowM9fGpI.html. It'll show you main CarPlay features and navigation through the menu.
Is there ever coming a CIC to NBT EVO f10 video, looking at a 10/2010 535d and want the nbt evo capabilities, if you guys would make a video I’d appreciate it very much, Thanks!
Can you send your car's VIN to our support team? Your car might be equipped with a different head unit type, thus there will be no AUX connector on the MMI harness.
I thought of a few questions while watching the video: What is the purpose of the wifi antenna in MMI Prime? Does the device communicate with the phone only via USB cable or also wirelessly? Does MMI Prime also support the smaller 10.25 BMW 5 screens (not the 12.3-inch ones)?
The MMI Prime allows wired and wireless connection, for this second the WiFi antenna is needed as your phone will connect through WiFi with the MMI. Yes, the MMI is compatible with 6.5”, 8.8” and 10.2” screens.
Ha Ha welcome to BMW. I will say its the same for many cars too. Any plug that hasn't been removed in years are usually very hard to pull out first time. Watching videos and then pulling out cables always look easy until you try it yourself for the first time. I do remember doing speaker replacement as first retrofit and could never unplug some connectors. It gets easy after when you get into the rhythm.
Hi, I have F11 2012 with CIC, combox and extended BT. Does I need to connect to the oem mic in the roof ? (don't want to remove all :p) or will it be able to take it from the HU ? Thanks a lot for your videos !
Hello, the microphone is necessary for some MMI functionalities, so despite the fact that the process is not necessary, we highly recommend to plug connector from our PnP harness to OEM microphone, as it is not possible to take this signal from head unit, due to design of the head unit.
When we are talking about the MMI retrofit in BMWs with CIC head unit the aux connection ensures the audio signal between head unit and MMI. This way you can play music through the device or hear notifications from the BMW audio system. The BMWs which have never type of head units, have different architecture, thus this connection is not necessary there.
Hi Brian, in terms of watchin RU-vid in your car, here is our video explaining the topic: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lKdmdx59DAI.html
It may but we'd have to check your VIN to tell for sure. You can enter it in the 'Identify my BMW' box and you'll see the compatibility: www.bimmer-tech.net/category-bmw-carplay-mmi-retrofit
Hi, HUD works after the MMI installation. Please be advised that the prompts (such as currently playing songs or Navigation Prompts) will not be shown on the head up display.
THAT is a LOT to go thru for a damn camera that SHOULD be standard!!!! And its a pain in the ASS just because BMW wanted to make it that way, anther reason to say FUCK BMW!!
