I’m using the latest road top device, no firmware change done
SDK 25.0.0.5.6.0.0.0 CUST version: CHLR110 MCU Version: 20.9.9.15 HW Version: BMW_CICHL I have a few question, hope someone here could help with my car BMW F07 2010: - If I press the steering wheel button for voice, the car voice system starts (also if long pressing), steering wheel button option is on in settings. - long press center button Idrive works - the system does not react on her Siri (my iPhone is in middle console so microphone is blocked) - is there any other option then routing the audio cable to the middle console aus input ? maybe accessing at the quad lock connector ? - by the way the box came with two options high speed can and low speed can connector, I’m using the low speed can, is this right ? Thanks for any suggests here Kai |

You can code this out of the car (assuming you don't want to use the car voice control system anymore) using Bimmercode or similar if you have a Bluetooth OBD Adapter. That was the way I dealt with it and Siri works perfectly now using the Voice Control button.

Will you use Carplay or AA? If you use Carplay then I believe that any unit will provide the same experience. If you use AA the I recommend Carlinkit because it is compatible with the custom sw on the first page.

Hi gents,
Wondering which carplay/AA brand you would advise ? Like you guys I would like to upgrade with something modern but on 2011 Audi A5 with MMI and a 2011 Mini Cooper S. Is the Andream one better ? I cannot find a so well documented thread as this one for Audi B8. I had 3 facebook msg with Andream but at a very slow rate of 1 answer/day. |

I have the andream unit and custom software. If I press the option button for 3 seconds, it activates the front camera. Works great. My front camera is located above the lower grill and the parking lines makes it easier to gauge the distance to the curb.

Cheers! Firefly1337 Very good stuff!!!
I've flashed the "v2.0.B0.mod" right over the Carlinkit from 9.2.0.yl.b and all the trouble I had with the unit were gone. Connects automatically and focus on the Android Auto screen right after it connects. Been asking the Carlinkit guys for ages.... No more echo's (although I already solved that by using the OEM but I had to switch between the screens) Good stuff!! |

I still don't understand if all of those hardware are from the same factory and from a generic firmware, each reseller is doing some little customization just to justify sticking their own brand on it. |

Any tips on how to remove the climate control connector? Pressing what I think is the release tab only lets it partially disengage. It feels like it’s hung up on one side.

I just installed a Carlinkit unit. Does anyone know if it's possible to have the system autostart in iDrive and not Carplay/MMI? I use satellite radio most of the time and just use Carplay for Google Maps/Waze.

Just download "v2.0.B0.mod" from the first page extract the file on a formatted FAT32 USB drive. Attach the USB drive to the unit. Turn off the car and wait for the unit to shutdown. For me it took like 5min. Press and "Hold" the Back and button on the iDrive start the car and release the Back button once you hear a click from the unit. (probably 5sec) The flash process should start. |

Should be under the Head Unit section and called something along the lines of CE_DEVICE_SPEECH_RECOGNITION but you will need to enabled Expert Mode to see/change it.

Anybody notice really low call volumes? I find myself having to increase the volume a lot during phone calls and once the phone call is over the music is extremely loud. I have the A version of andream if that helps any.
