To activate CarPlay do I require Navigation Professional VO code 609? Do you recommend any solutions to enable CarPlay?

I have a look at the connectors behind the head unit last night and found out that the GPS connector is missing. So I wonder if I can add the GPS connector onto the PCB. Seems too risky to do so and may end-up damage the PCB with my very poor skill.<br /><br />Actually, the 8.8" screen I have retrofitted is integrated with the Android system which simulates the EVO interface. There is already a GPS nav function. So even if it is not possible to retrofit the entrynav, it is still ok for me. Most likely, I will give up on retrofitting the entrynav unit... :P<br /><br />Best regards,<br />GaryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539756848254136624.post-2657699788508607292017-10-25T17:48:28.150+08:002017-10-25T17:48:28.150+08:00And yes, I also successfully retrofitted 8.8 inch ...And yes, I also successfully retrofitted 8.8 inch display screen as well..

So if you want navi function in your wehicle, you have 3 options: 1. you can get official BMW "integrated navigation" solution which is basically adding additional navigation module (in the glove box) + you get new idrive controller with navgation button. Cost: 1000 EUR. Then you update the maps online via PC... 2. you can replace existing HU_ENTRYNAV head unit with used navi-capable NBT head unit + replace idrive controller. Problem here are compatibility issues, which can be resolved via coding, donor VIN, filter harnesses etc). 3. You can install video (multimedia) mirroring device and use your smart phone for navigation - I used this option since I retrofitted backup camera as well. It is the cheapest option (app. 500 EUR) and works great. Hope this will be of any help to you.<br />Best regards, E.EShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00201120953282481817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539756848254136624.post-14834268134377618632017-10-25T16:53:50.680+08:002017-10-25T16:53:50.680+08:00Thanks so much for your quick reply! :) And thank ...Thanks so much for your quick reply! :) And thank you so much for offering the nav unit. However, I am from HK and it will be too trouble for you to send the unit. Actually, I am thinking if my own Entrynav can be retrofitted. If possible, I can also share it to my friends in the car group with this low cost method. Hope to learn more from you in the future! <br /><br />Best regards,<br />GaryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539756848254136624.post-88450912935775170872017-10-25T16:28:32.285+08:002017-10-25T16:28:32.285+08:00Good to hear that you had successfully retrofitted...Good to hear that you had successfully retrofitted your screen to 8.8 inch! Upgrading to navigation unit is something that I have not tried so I can't comment much. If you want to test it, I do have a navigation head unit for F46 for you to test. I believe you will need to use "Detect CAF for SWE" buttonif you did not see the head unit module in your E-Sys.
