Followed step by step on a 2016 mercedes GLC and worked perfectly. Even the Burmester system works without any modification required. Thanks for the great video
Hello, I have a GLC300 2016 and was wondering if you experience any audio delay? for example, if you play a youtube video, are video and audio in sync? Thanks
Hi, nice to hear an Aussie for a change here in the USA. How can i update the program on the my 2018 AMD C63s to accept the AUX feature to work, instead of using the USB way, as im sure ill lose sound quality.... what do you think??? Also this is the best install video for this product on RU-vid well done mate
@ The Fitting Bay ; Mate thank you for your comprehensive walk through. Although my model was the newer 12 inch screen, everything you covered was on point. Cheers
Any clue as to why when using the indicator it switches to the MB-Screen rather than staying on Car-Play? Quite annoying... especially when using Google-Maps...
Does anyone have a Burmester system! because I have the Burmester system and don't want a significant downgrade in quality. This is very important to me. I really like your video explanation. I'm from Holland myself. And here they don't have this great explanation.👋👋👋👋👌
For anyone having issues with the carplay not connecting sometimes just go to the tablet SETTINGS -> Wifi and connections -> hotspot -> Make sure it's active and on 2.4 ghz. sometimes it's not working in 5 ghz and that's why it does not connect.
Great video! I have similar Android screen. Everything works perfect, except phone calls. I can listen spotify with Android Auto, but when I answer a call I can't hear anybody, but everyone hear me. I don't have any idea where the problem is.
Perfect tutorial! Thanks a lot! My new screen is 12,3 inch, and has similar cable routings, but not identical to this. So i'm trying to install it based on this video, but not that easy.
I have tried this Android unit and I had to take it out again. The no. 1 reason is that the OEM microphone of the car is not used but a tiny small microphone on the right side of the unit. No way to use handsfree with this unit. Also, Carplay (Zlink app) keeps crashing or BT is not connecting. I have not found any Android unit that uses the car's OEM microphone and I will never put anything without it.
Hi I've fitted the new head unit all working great except the factory reversing camera doesn't display unless in ntg mode, is this a simple setting issue. Thanks Loz
U will have to use a Video Camera cable thats yellow from the OEM radio port (green in colour) to transfer camera video (CV- AND CA+) to the top Andriod Camera cable Yellow too and then u are good to go
This is a great product. Just bought a 2014 W205 and system is not upgradable and I must replace the whole system. Any suppliers/installers in South Africa?
If you have to use the AUX to USB box the audio quality is horrific. I’m going to be trying an FM modulator as a work around, this is a hardwire solution, not to be confused with the fm transmitter.
Bluetooth sometimes connect to iPhone but struggles to connect. Zlink often does not connect automatically. What could be the issue? When turning vehicle off and on again Bluetooth won’t connect and Zlink won’t connect.
Thanks for the video. @the fitting bay ....question: does the FWD / BCK buttons on the steering wheel work to go to next or previous song in apple car play mode?
@@TheFittingBay thanks. I installed the system but couldnt get the fwd and back buttons to change songs on central consol. Volume dial works fine... Any ideas?
Hi, great video , helped me through the installation , thanks i got a question been looking everywhere, how can i reduce audio lag/delay on carplay , tried everything.
Hey bro. With the apps like you tube and Netflix I have no sound. Same with sometimes when playing music through car play. Seems that system doesn’t want to use volume only when on Bluetooth. Is there a system setting for this?
Great video I used it to installed a ugode 12.3 screen in to my 65 plate c250 and I don’t get any sound or radio function on ntg mode , really struggling . Any advice
i have a question, how can we code the car with the aux like you did? instead of plugging it into the usb port inside the storage compartment, it wasnt too clear in the video. Other than that, amazing tutorial
@@TheFittingBay Do you know where to get the dongle or the software to code it? Or is there something we can say to a dealership so they understand what to do? All the dealerships i've asked say they either don't know how or can't do it.
Following this for a 2019 CLA - One question however, i'm thinking of installing ambient lighting kit with integration (hopefully) will the menus still pop up allowing me to set the colors?
Hello, great install video! I have just completed install on my 2017 C63S Coupe and I have sound with Bluetooth and Apple CarPlay but no android sound.. the manual does not contain any information on this matter. Thanks for any help!
You haven't plugged in the sound connector - see at 6:40. Don't be confused by bluetooth working, you will note that the apple sounds (eg siri or reading text messages) don't work even though playing music may.
Hi Guys, thanks so much for the great video. I live in Brisbane, what is the cost I should expect to pay for the unit and the installation combined? Thanks in advance
hello there. iv seen alooot of products online like this one, but no1 speaks about the sound quality. hows compared to the stock ones? ( i think will be the same because its not another unit, you just install it on the one you already got from factory) is that true?
Thanks for the install instructions. I just completed the installation and am having one problem. The reverse/backup camera feature doesn't work. When I put the car in reverse and the android screen is already booted up, absolutely nothing happens. I need to go to the NTG menu to see the back up camera and it works fine there. Any ideas?
@@SuperShowtimers the setting is already at oem camera so I’m not sure what the problem is or how to fix it. I do not have an aftermarket camera. I posted a video on my channel of the problem if you want to see it. Thanks..... I eventually figured out the problem. I had to make a change in the factory settings under CAN protocol from 5.0C to 5.0A.
I have problem with my w205 Mercedes-Benz. Its screen appeared “ Boot Loader Active” and could not run the operation on the screen. Then I replaced it with the Android Screen “Snapdragon 450 NTG 5.0, 8 G ram and 256 rom” but it failed to work. The sound system doesn’t work out and the When I operate the reverse gear, the camera doesn’t show the rear view and my new android screen shows “ Boot Loader Active” What shall I do to fix this.
Hi everyone. I have C class 2017 model Is my W205 then? And is this the only one Android that is working in Mercedes C class? For those who have this one, are you satisfied? Im looking to buy one.
In 21:38 How did you remove the speedometer that’s on the right hand side of the display? “ it comes up in the NTG menu and when I go into reverse” really annoying and takes up half the screen
Hello mates, I got a CLA (C117) with NTG 5 and I installed an android screen like that. All works fine but when Im using ¨the android part¨ it doesnt switch in automatic to the rear camera. The camera works perfect but I have to put the NTG mode by manual. Someboy can help me? Thanks a lot.
since a few days my phone isn’t connecting anymore with the Bluetooth so no music calls car play of any kind works now and don’t know how to fix it? at Bluetooth telephone it now says not activated i think there’s something wrong with that. also in the android settings it shows nothing at the Bluetooth setting really weird and it worked before so something must be not right?
Hello, I am from the UK and my Multimedia screen is showing black and white lines so none of the syetem which are controlled by screen are not working. but when i put it reverse gear it does show the back camera image for 3 to 4 seconds and then disappears and shows black and white lines. my car details are: C220 D bluetec, Reg 2015 in the UK. my question is if this screen got broke then how can i find the correct screen and can i change by myself by removing the plastic panel by using the plastic panel remover tool? thank you
Howcome it doesn’t have wireless android auto like the others? And it doesn’t have the direction assist (or whatever it’s called lol) on the screen when in reverse, like the others. Is this android 11 or 12?
Would like to know how it impacts sound quality on the burmester speakers when connected with usb. I never use bluetooth for playing music from my phone.
I fixed the issue, turns out I hadn't properly connected the quadlock. Stupid issue that I caused myself but worth checking if you have any issues. Now I have discovered a new issue, the sound quality is actually quite bad now. There seems to be almost no bass, as if the subwoofers are not even working. I've tried to look through all the settings but can't make it work. The sound is like this regardless of what input is selected, so I have a feeling it's something to do with the aux connection, like putting it into stereo has dropped the subs off?
I’ve installed mine, all works brilliantly apart from when I make/receive a phone call - I get no call audio at all. Do I need to install the speaker and mic that came with the screen or is there a setting to use my OEM mic/speakers instead?
Hi... i have a problem, why the original NTG menu didn't show up in the screen..?? the LVDS cable already connected, change screen setting, still blank screen.... 😭
Yes, it’s Canbus settings. Mine was the same. Changed Canbus and all fine. My reverse camera wasn’t coming on when using Apple Car play and this solved that issue too.
