Also, anyone know if this Kremersino unit is the same as Bimmertech's (3x the price)? |

I’m considering just waiting for Black Friday it seems like the BimmerTech at least has the best customer support and least headaches but waiting for more buyers to chime in. |

I just installed the Bimmer-tech MMI Prime in my dad's '14 650i coupe. It's really nice, very easy install (similar to our e9x's except I didn't have to run anything up through the A pillar for the mic). Quality of the kit was great, and so far the sound quality seems very good for running via the aux input. It's wireless and connects very fast. I'm going to go this route for my '11 e93, either Black Friday or Christmas time. Not driving it enough right now to justify but it's on my to-do list :-)

I'm in the same boat, if they have a black Friday sale I'll live with the Tune2Air adapter for the limited amount I'm driving and then do this over the holidays.

So I have the V2 unit and I've read you can do audio through bluetooth (combox). Right now I've been setting the source to the combox bluetooth on my phone, is that the correct way to do it? Or is it done through the kremersino unit itself?

Yes, and in the BMW source list (on the factory BMW system), select your phone's bluetooth audio connection (instead of AUX In). You don't set anything specific to this in the kremersino unit itself.

Ok, appreciate it! That's what I figured. Having some small issues like the steering wheel controls are being buggy but that might be due to iOS 14. I will try and skip to the next song and it will skip but kick right back to the previous song and restart it.

I actually haven’t, I remember seeing some pages back that it didn’t work. I’m also having some screen retention issues, some UI elements stay on the screen for a couple minutes after it changes.

After installing the carplay unit, the call quality issues went away completely and calls all sounded great. I only realized this after removing the carplay unit a couple of weeks ago when the quality went back to being poor. |

So I saw a few pages back that Version 2 is not compatible with AHD cameras, although the Aliexpress page says it is. Can anyone confirm?
Edit: So I actually bought an AHD1080P camera which I don't think is compatible. I can switch it to CVBS though so I'll try that. Well CVBS didn’t work. Wonder what I did wrong or is anyone else not getting video from their camera? Last edited by noah.s; 09-08-2020 at 08:56 PM.. |

In the end I just continued using my backup camera via the factory setup - within the carplay settings, you can set the backup camera to "Factory" and it auto switches over to the BMW factory backup screen/camera when you put the car in reverse, then automatically switches back to the carplay screen when you take it out of reverse. Worked great. |
