I love that shirt especially since he’s a niner
This may sound stupid, but there are no copyrights on classical music, there are classical compositions with a lot of bass and high notes. ;)
I appreciate that and will use that next time
Hello,
I installed the radio but the mic is not working. Is there something I need to activate from the settings?
Not normally.. I would check all of the wiring harnesses and test. Hopefully its working for you by now.
I recently purchased this unit, but didn't know the install bracket was not included, so what install bracket will I need for a 2001 BMW 325xi
If you have to relocate the controls, the bracket I used is listed in the video description
Muy buena esplicacion. Me a servido de ayuda. Veri good
Hello, again friend after trying various things the camera comes out the other way around. Could you tell me how to restore factory settings? Let's see if this is fixed. Greetings. You did a good job. Good video.
I cant say I have ever seen the video backwards? I am confused even how that could happen honestly..
@@BMWDIYGuy Hello, at first everything was going well, the video was fine, front camera and I don't know what happened or what I touched, and the reverse video appeared. I don't know if it can help me. If you couldn't tell me to put factory values to see if it solves. a greeting.
Quick question. Are you able to download and view Netflix on this unit the way you can view UA-cam?
I haven't tried it but willing to guess yes.
BMW DIY Guy If you have the chance would you be willing to try it out? Reason I’m asking is because on my current android unit running 8.0 Netflix simply wont work despite my efforts and I’m looking to upgrade to one that can. If not I understand. Thanks!
About ibus / USB-stick: the stick is going to be connected to USB and 2 wires. Is there a plug for these 2 wires on the AVIN? I wouldn‘t know where to connect on the original car cables... Thanks!
Hello, friend I have a car radio installed with this same system. At first the front camera was fine for me, but I don't know what to touch that the image comes out the other way around. You could help me.
Need your help. Thank, No sound and I did not see the I-BUS APP on the screen. Where do you connect the antenna cable from the trunk?
can you change the widgets on the homescreen ? very annoying that you can't :(
If you look around, the android mod community is very strong and its possible to change many things.
Hi there not sure if you still get comment notifications for this video but I just bought a 03 X5 4.6is and I have DSP and I was looking to buy the Avant 4 but there’s so many add on options underneath when purchasing what do I actually need ?
Sure do! So really its the options you want.. if you dont want carplay or similar, skip the dongle. Some of the options like DAB aren't for the US or is euro only.. really select what you think you want or need.
BMW DIY Guy Thanks for the reply ! Where I’m confused is on these options :
Quadlock 6M Navigation Extension Cable or Optional GPS Antenna Extension Cable
I have navigation from factory on mine so is one of these options a must ?
Also on this option :
Add optional IBUS USB adapter (includes paid DSP license)?
I’m confused because it says it’s optional but then says required if I have DSP, but I thought the Avant 4 already comes with IBUS ? Thanks again for your help and clarification
@@michaeldeniz6073 If you have the factory navigation you need the Quadlock Extension, the harness that the connection will connect to is in the back because the stereo is in the trunk on the left side and the harness is connected to that radio , you need to disconnect it from the stereo and connect the other harness to the cars harness
Guys can i run the head unite without the 6m cable extension and bypass the amplifier ?!
Do you have any issues with the Sun glare?
None
@@BMWDIYGuy i have an issue where my steering wheel controls don’t work - do you know how to fix that?
Do you have installation video for the rear camera? Looks tougher than the stereo
Its really not THAT bad but yes, it is a hassle. Sadly I don't have the video for it because of an accident. I filmed the rear camera as a different video segment. Right after I finished I knocked over my camera and it just smashed. It was so ruined I couldnt even recover the files off of it.
evan goyuk has a video on it
I thanks very good. My question is did you get a chance to see if the mic in the middle of the Unit work. Would i be able to answer my phone hand free.
I didnt try it yet, great question!
Seems to be no way to change the Home Screen icons or even re-arrange them… horrible app setup imo as well. Why would they make some that won’t let you change the icons or move them around
What is the Dev. Is it Dev.com site. What I am not seeing on these DIYS . No one is showing exactly where the 6M cable is connected.On my E38, in the trunk,there is a module box that as the OEM 17 pin harness, should I disconnect that OEM and connect my 6M cable to it or should I disconnect the OEM from the module and connect the 6m harness to the module box that also has the antenna cable. Did you needed the 6M cable and antenna cable when you did yours?
Sorry.. dev as in developer. It is here www.ibus-app.de/index_en.html
After installing Andriod Auto do you have to keep your phone plugged into the Dongle at all time?
Not all that often as its not a feature I use very often.
Did you hook the rear camera’s power to the reverse light?
I tapped power from the license plate light, and the trigger to the backup light.
@@BMWDIYGuy thanks what do you mean by trigger.
@@PIERN96 There is a 12v power wire (tapped to the license plate light) and a trigger wire (which tells the camera when to turn on, and the head unit to flip to video feed) that is tapped to the backup light.
@@BMWDIYGuy Sweet thanks! I'm going to order the backup camera you linked to. It doesn't say e53 on it, but if you used it I think it should be fine. Does the dash show any alerts about the license plate lights? Thanks.
@@PIERN96 So the camera replaces one of the license plate lights itself. It can then throw an error.. oddly my E46 didn't, but my E53 did. You can get resisters to put inline as the LED of the new light doesnt draw as much power as the original, hence the error.
I installed the Avant-4 in my E53 a few weeks ago and I like it very much. I installed a mic and use the handsfree bluetooth for my phone. The one thing that really bugs me (more my wife) is the high volume of the ring tone that comes from the speakers (ring ring) on incoming calls. I can't find a way to adjust the volume or turn it off. Do you know if that's possible?
Did you ever find a way to lower the volume for the ringer?
@@gr7199 I have no idea if this is the case but I'd wonder if it has to do with the volume/ringer settings on their phone overruling the volume settings on the stereo. Apple Carplay/Android Auto should both not have that issue though.
Did you have a problem with Audio delays in phone calls?
Mine adds a 1-2 second delay to whoever is talking (me and also the person calling) meaning we talk over eachother a lot and I have to swith to speakerphone*
Can I delete the i-bus app after downloading to the Avant 4? I am getting Your vehicle is not unlock no connection to the interface.
Do you have a car with a DSP stereo?
My 2001 E38 do have a DSP and I did download iBus app but the radio play for 38 Sec. then cut out and showing warm and overheating. I would love to show you a video of my problem so you may understand better how can I?
You mention DEV. what is full name of this site. I would like to try that site. Thanks
Dev as in developer. www.ibus-app.de/index_en.html
How do I get the ibus app? My 4 does not have it on the menu.
Check the developers website, you can get it from there directly
@@BMWDIYGuy Ok, thank you. I got the app but when trying to connect, it says unable to connect to interface.
I got it!
@@rvae3483 Make sure the canbus box is plugged in, and select USB interface in the iBus app.
@@rvae3483 yes, contact avin and make sure they have registered your VIN
Hi I need your help
2 weeks ago I got Avin Avant 4 for my BMW e38 , I have some issue with WiFi connection , I use wi fi antenna and the plug is screwed well with the unit , but from time to time disconnecting and stay as off on the settings
Can not switch it on
Some friends advise me to update the android system and MCU from 8.0 to 9.0
Can give us an idea how to solve this issue due to the support from AvIN USA is very poor
There is no way that I am aware of to flash the unit up to v9. Maybe there is something on XDA Developers, but I havent looked.
Does it have AUX cable?
I dont use it so ironically enough not sure off the top of my head.. I think so yes.
@@BMWDIYGuy I just didn't see it ... but the media is looking so good
Hello friend, you are a crack. I have an autoradio like this, could you tell me why the image of the front camera comes out upside down. It is the one of the usb input. HD dvr. A greeting, Merry Christmas. I wait your answer.
So never seen it upside down.. odd question, is the camera itself upside down? Did you do the front mirror housing style?
this is hands down the worst head unit ive ever had in my life. i should of just got an alpine or anything but this. i am i computer/tech guy and trying to get this turd to connect to my wifi/phone took well over 2 hours. then after that it wouldnt save the settings...i had to reconnect it every time i get in the car, Not like it auto does it...i have to go into setting look for the phone and reconnect it. also, my cams dont work when i goto see them in the unit, but if i put the car in R, back-up cam works...its just all wonky.
so update, i have now reset the head unit, and nothing...i wish i could return this turd. for some reason the wifi likes to turn on and off when it wants even with FULL bars. when loading youtube or nav, it loads up then crashes back to start.
Need your help. Thank, No sound and I did not see the I-BUS APP on the screen. Where do you connect the antenna cable from the trunk?
If you are missing the ibus app you can download it. It's on Avins support site but also from the Dev. Just search for the app, copy the apk to a thumb drive and install on the display.
