As for video playback, it would not be possible as CarPlay was not designed for that purpose. This would be a limitation set by Apple

Hi:
I’m also interested from Spain. I appreciate to receive a pm with the info I have a couple of questions: Does it have rear camera lines that moves with steering and connects with rear gear? Does it have another av-in? How much av-in? How can you select different inputs? Does it have its own micro, or uses the car micro? Thank you so much |

No Does it have another av-in? How much av-in? How can you select different inputs? Yes but I do not believe it serves any purpose as the manufacturer has not mentioned any specs about that as of yet. Does it have its own micro, or uses the car micro? Not sure what you mean by Micro

I worked with the engineers from the company and they were able to provide us with a patch that fixes the iOS 11 compatibility issue and I can now confirm that it is fully running on my iPhone 8 Plus. We have been assured that the upcoming shipment will have this patch implemented and we will be testing each unit on our bench prior to sending to customers.

Two other questions: I saw mention of this earlier in the thread, but did you confirm that if you're in the CarPlay interface and the car is put in reverse, will the display input automatically switch back to NBT to put the cameras on-screen? Do you need to install/mount a USB cable/jack somewhere in the car to plug into this unit? If so, can a phone be connected to this unit via USB, and be connected to NBT via Bluetooth at the same time? Not sure if I really need this, but curious more than anything. Thanks again Steve!

As for your other questions, yes if you put the vehicle into reverse it will display your factory backup camera instead. On our 2013 test vehicle, it is not equipped with PDC or reverse cam but as soon as we put it into reverse, it switches back to the NBT interface. The MMI box uses a separate USB port to connect your iPhone to the MMI box and the cable is long enough for you to either run the port to the glovebox or centre console. I left mine hanging out on the side of the passenger side right beside the hump. You can the phone connected to both Bluetooth and CarPlay over uSB at the same time, but it will get confused on where to route the audio to so the best thing to do would be to turn off Bluetooth on your device before connecting your phone to use CarPlay via USB. Hope this helps!

Hi Steve et al,
I’m in the UK and installed the Unichip solution in my 2014 F30 with CIC, in principle it works ok as it supports every function and the system is super responsive (I agree with Steve, USB is the way to go). The one problem I’m having is that the system messed up the car sound a bit, there’s a lot of static/electric noise eating all the sound (even when Iuse. The legacy aux/usb ports of the car). I don’t know if it’s because of a bad connection or cable/box placement. I placed the box right under the CIC unit because I have space there. Can anybody provide some feedback regarding a similar issue and how tofix it? Thanks in advance. Erwins |

The shipment arrived yesterday and we will be able to accept orders directly on our store next week after we test the batch to ensure that each unit has the latest firmware.

Just ordered mine directly from Unichip! I'll post an install and review on the forum when I get mine installed.
Thanks! |

Very interested on your feedback. As said a few posts ago I installed it on my F30 and it works great but I must have a problem with grounding or something because it has made my system all noisy.
