great video tutorial fella, makes me far more comfortable taking the install on myself, would love to see a run thru of the many menu setting for the intial setup...Keep up the good work fella, we need it..
Great video. Kindly advise on the microphone when making a phone call. The last time a bought an after market stereo the mic was an absolute joke! I hope this works well coz am seriously considering getting it.
Can you provide more detail about the bit where you said "I don't have to plug into the AUX port?" Is there a known factory audio system configuration where this is required? Great video! Thank you!
Ccc fitted vehicles have 2 aux ports depending on config from the factory. One port is direct in the back of the ccc. The other through the mulf module. The vehicles with it direct to ccc do not need the cable
This is a great video and one that swayed me into buying the unit for my E70. I have some problems though: 1. Cannot get Bluetooth and Wi-Fi to connect at the same time, I have to switch off Bluetooth on my iPhone XS, to connect to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth will kick off Wi-Fi when its switched back on again.. 2. Connecting to Bluetooth, on startup, is hit and miss so have to switch on and off the ignition until Bluetooth connects and I can access all functions eg: Google Maps Spotify and Phone.
The little speaker is for gps voice guidance from the units maps. Not apple CarPlay maps. So if you are listening to the actual cars radio you can still hear the androids gps guidance.
@@ZeroTo60Tube only if you use the inbuilt maps. If you use android auto or apple CarPlay it doesn’t work. Not on my unit anyway. I guess if you hotspot your phone to the unit then it could be used but I just like CarPlay
nice info video !!! few quick quetions: does the CCC onboard GPS navigation still work ? does the android navigation work even without 4G or 5G cellular signal ? Does the idrive radio still work ? does the idrive backupcamera still pop on when put on reverse gear ? does the idrive tire pressure monitor system still work ? thanks
Great video on the android unit,could you do a video on how to change the start stop button and also the idrive knob as I can’t seem to find a video on how or which one to use ta
@@ZeroTo60Tube Thanks, I’ll order it, with your instructions on UA-cam it should be easy. Did you have to connect a cable to the Aux or is it not necessary ? Greetings Dick
@@ZeroTo60Tube I heard a lot of these android units and how the low sound quality compared to the stock system but if you recommend this I’m sure you tried all the other shit ones
As soon as you said "make sure you get the right setup" I knew I messed up 🤦🏾♂️ but I did watch both installations and didn't see a difference 🤔 are the cic and ccc versions interchangeable at this point?
i see in factory settings that there is aux switch in manual and then there is a menu where u can choose the position of aux 1 and aux 2 , do you think with some trick ob thse menus i will be able to skip the aux cable from the armrest to the unit?
Hey, like the video. So much I thought I'd try the install myself. It seems easy enough, I have CCC model like the one in your video. Is there anything I need to keep in mind or anything I should look out for when installing this unit? I needed something to do during lockdown. Haha. This is it. Any advice would be great. Thanks.
@@taylorsons4303 Hey Taylor, installation was easy. Took me about 12mins to install. Amazingly simply. Just make sure you have a Phillips screw driver and a plastic tool to careful unclip the bottom cover part. Just to make sure you don't scratch anything.
@@taylorsons4303 my reverse camera doesn't work, but then, I'm from the old school where I use the side mirrors, rear view mirror along with the sensors, beeping me when I'm too close.

I recently installed the new 12.3 in CIC Android screen in my 2010 X5. I am having issues with the following: 1. The BMW Factory System view is accessible. However, I cannot figure out how to properly calibrate the view. All of the factory screen views are off-centered and it is difficult to select items because some aren’t visible. I have gone through all of the setting tabs on the screen and cannot figure it out. 2. My system will not allow me to delete/disconnect mobile devices that were attached to the radio for testing. The audio shop’s technician synced his phone to the screen for testing and it will not delete from the screen. Any advice you can offer on these questions would be greatly appreciated.
Hi, I bought this screen and everything works, but the car info doesn’t show up, y can use the mouse of the car for the monitor but when click the menu button the screen get black instead of showing the Drive menu or navigation system, my car is a BMW X5 2007. Please help !! 🙏🙏🙏
Hello great video. I have installed a very similar unit. The audio through the aux cable input is very noisy. Do you know what i could do to troubleshoot it/ fix it? I was thinking of hardwiring the audio jack…everything else works wonderfully
ensure your aux cable is super duper high quality, use a voltmeter and check resistance at each end wiggling it all over. IMO, 5 out of 10 brand new unbranded aux cables are trash. get a name branded and heavily shielded cable from a guitar center or similar, and only buy the absolutely shortest cable you need. -check it isn't pinched anywhere - check it isn't running alongside ANY other cables, especially power cables. -set aux output on phone/mp3 at about 50% or maximum 65% volume and turn off all modifications aside from Dolby if you want. no sound effects, EQ, bass amplifier etc. set aux input gain at radio. this high level aux input in a perfect world sucks at best so keep expectations moderate. there shouldn't be any clipping or popping and if there is, replace cable and ENSURE they are inserted tightly! for example, a modern Android phone running UA-cam audio should be 80% perfect between 0 and 50% on head unit volume. above that, your going to amp engine noise and crap to some degree. if you want to avoid the issue, run line level audio (ipod cable output to a ipod ready player is line level..i.e. preset low voltage level...same as the voltage between Bluetooth devices..l...I'd use a quality Bluetooth device and ditch the aux cable, however, I do use a 3.5mm monster cable aux cable (10mm thick cable) and keep level under 60% so my typical listening level at radio (30-60%) is pretty damn good. ...also, any whine from ignition and either cable IA grounded to Chassis somewhere, bad cable, other speaker wire grounded somewhere etc. start by laying aux cable in a different route to see if it goes away.
I would buy right now, But how can i figure out if mine is a CCC or CIC...Mine looks exactly like the one on the video, but my steering wheel is on the other side
Hello from Scotland, I have purchased the QPB10X5cc for my 2007 E70 X5 which appears to be ccc, i am not convinced about the patch cable..so I was hoping you could tell me if this is the right model I have?. Cheers and happy new years. jb
Hello- i am from USA and recently watching the video where you have upgraded the head panel for an2009 x5 48i. I have exactly the same model, and trying to find if the xtron is a good one or you have something else in mind. Also, what’s the complexity level if i do it? I can follow instructions, and also usually do many DIY though first time with a car.
Thanks for your video. I bought the same unit for my 2008. Installed everything is good including sound. Did you have to do anything to get the OEM reverse camera to display correctly on the old idrive view? When I switch to reverse it goes to the office view but gets frozen, sensors all work but no display.
Hey! So my X5 is a 2009. I wanted to get this because my car only has Bluetooth for calling. If I get this head unit will I be able to connect to Bluetooth for my Spotify?
Hello! After installation, did you have a voice conversation on the phone from the speakers? I can't figure out what the problem is! In general there is sound, there is also sound from the phone via Bluetooth, music plays via Bluetooth! When they call, the music turns off, but the voice of the conversation does not go on!
hello fella, do you think its worth the trouble of upgrading my 2009 x5 ccc, to a later cic sytem? the reason i ask is because i have the easier option of just installing a 12.3" android unit and wonder if i would ever need to use the original ccc menu side of thing?, obviously the full cic upgrade would be around 500.00 hence my reluctance to just go ahead with it...Any help you can share having the insight of using the andriod head's up display would be so so welcomed fella..cheers ian
Need one with subwoofer RCA and crossover control. That would sell. If these are like the current China ones. They are all glitchy and something is always wrong with them. A few that I have had, had BT connectivity issues, volume static issues, random screen black out issues, random shut off issues, poor sound quality compared to stock HU, glitchy screen and sometimes didn't work if you swipe or push on options...etc etc...
I've a unit like this, but I have a problem with the hands free, when I receive a phone call, everyone can hear me, but I can hear anyone. I've checked all the functions but with no success
hi, i have the same screen in my X5, a few days ago the operative system got deleted, now i have a screen without the android operative system, just the spects from a default x5, do you know if it's possible to install again the android operative system in the screen? have a nice day
Hey Guys, I just did the same install, however am experiencing the following issues.....can you please help?? 1. The size of the original BMW screen (resolution) is much larger now and does not fit in the new screen (maybe a setting?) 2. Only radio plays through speakers, no sound from the Android side even when it shows paired music devices playing 3. Rear camera no longer has the guidance overlays.......total horror.....HELP
1. I have the same issue with the idrive picure being larger then the screen. I have tried all of the different factory car screen settings with no joy did you find a solution? 2. You need to have the additional 3.5mm audio cable plugged into the outlet in your armrest and have the idrive set to AUX source 3. change setting to original camera not aftermarket
@zeroto60 i connected everything but mi idrive knob doesn't work nor does the audio. I've tried with and without connecting the aux cable. Any suggestions for me to follow ? I have an x6 e71
Thanks for the video. If you want to listen to OEM FM, do you have to go into the CCC menu and choose FM? I am wondering what happens when you play some music into the AUX-IN jack in the center console. Does it mix/play over whatever the Xtrons is playing at the time?
yes I wonder the same thing. I saw on another type of these MMI upgrades that FM AM radio was no longer useable after the conversion and the current car speaker phone microphone no longer worked. I wonder if that is the case with this unit too?
@@Ensignpeak after 2 months I know what happens. Yes playing into aux in armrest will mix with android. FM does play if you go into the CCC menu and choose it. Simply put, android outputs audio into aux. Nothing else is affected in any way, sound wise. It's like plugging your phone or a ipod. Regarding video, it displays its own video output on its screen, but you can choose to see the CCC menu if you like, and that's it. Nothing is adversely affected in any way. Only better things on top of what you already have. I have one such top of the line unit for sale if anyone is interested, 10.25", 8gb, 128gb, shipping worldwide.
Hello my friend But I have read from other people that the rear view camera does not work with the Android system. What could be the problem if it happens to me too? Xonrich system Best regards
You've done quite a few of these now. Have these radios been holding up well? I used a different brand in my E92 and it lasted less than a year... Looking to replace it now.
I did a reset on the system to factory because it was logged in to as the previous owner and everything worked as normal before the reset, but after I reset the system Bluetooth stopped working on the android system but still works on the iDrive system like it shows that it searching for the devices but it not coming up on the phone and I tried with multiple phones. If anyone could give me some advice that would be much appreciated. Thanks.

But I have read from other people that the rear view camera does not work with the Android system. What could be the problem if it happens to me too? Xonrich system
Best regards
You've done quite a few of these now. Have these radios been holding up well? I used a different brand in my E92 and it lasted less than a year... Looking to replace it now.
What brand was that so I stay away?
Which year model is this X5? Wonder if it works with 2007 X5.
This one is a 2007 or 2008 from memory.
Is 32GB enough? Or what would you recommend?
Will this unit work if you factory radio unit radio don’t work? Or do you have to have a work factory unit ?
No it will not. It needs the factory aux input working. It also uses the factory idrive controller.
Reverse camera?
Where did you buy this I did buy from Amazon I didn't get it yet hofly comes good
What about the backup camera? Does it retain that feature?
yes
Please send a link where to buy this unit 🙏
Why was your hazard light button flashing?
It’s just the led getting caught out by the camera refresh rate. It’s not actually flashing to the human eye.
Good vid
How different would a CIC installation of an Xtrons system? Do you have a video?
pretty much exactly the same
What the actual model I need same X5 as this ? Any recommendations where to buy
Just installed mine for my 2014 X6 and everything works perfectly but my audio. There’s no noise. What do you think went wrong.
May need to verify how your cars aux works. If you have a mulf module in the boot, you will need to connect directly to the 3.5mm aux port
I did a reset on the system to factory because it was logged in to as the previous owner and everything worked as normal before the reset, but after I reset the system Bluetooth stopped working on the android system but still works on the iDrive system like it shows that it searching for the devices but it not coming up on the phone and I tried with multiple phones. If anyone could give me some advice that would be much appreciated. Thanks.
I have this screen in my X6 2010 but my screen don't work for touch and I have Android on it but will not let me input anything because of the touch screen don't work ...... please help
Which design scheme is it? :)
It looks like the hazard light button and gear shifter lights are flashing in the video. Is that because of the camera or is it doing that all the time ?
its just the camera, in real light they are just illuminated normally
