NBT and EVO MMI's now have that firmware, and I believe Road Top has CUST version "ltcichl_n客户版CHLR174" for CIC MMIs that does full-Bluetooth audio, but do not know if Andream has one for CICs.
i put an email into ANdream prob get a response tommorrow. Seems my cheapest option might just be to get the andream 10' screen.. found a thread on em seem like they do the job...

That would be the cheapest and easiest. Plug and play.

But be careful with the android screens. Their huge drawback is that they have a mirror like glare. Even the newer anti-glare coated ones. The Chinese are just not willing to invest some decent money into good screens.

I bought one a while back and after a week I could not stand it anymore. Looking daily at my OEM screen now I’m very glad I did stay with OEM.

There is a thread “Android 11 / 12 / 13” and you can ask there (Red Erik et al) if anything changed.

Iv seen dome comments in the glare thing. Im usually driving in dark either way so it might not even bother me it could be worth a shot.
And After further research it looks like the way to go is to full evo on the HU swap from HUENTRY if i was to go oem
