Followed step by step on a 2016 mercedes GLC and worked perfectly. Even the Burmester system works without any modification required. Thanks for the great video
Hello, I have a GLC300 2016 and was wondering if you experience any audio delay? for example, if you play a youtube video, are video and audio in sync? Thanks
Hi, nice to hear an Aussie for a change here in the USA. How can i update the program on the my 2018 AMD C63s to accept the AUX feature to work, instead of using the USB way, as im sure ill lose sound quality.... what do you think??? Also this is the best install video for this product on CZcams well done mate
Any clue as to why when using the indicator it switches to the MB-Screen rather than staying on Car-Play? Quite annoying... especially when using Google-Maps...
@ The Fitting Bay ; Mate thank you for your comprehensive walk through. Although my model was the newer 12 inch screen, everything you covered was on point. Cheers
I have tried this Android unit and I had to take it out again. The no. 1 reason is that the OEM microphone of the car is not used but a tiny small microphone on the right side of the unit. No way to use handsfree with this unit. Also, Carplay (Zlink app) keeps crashing or BT is not connecting. I have not found any Android unit that uses the car's OEM microphone and I will never put anything without it.
Hi I've fitted the new head unit all working great except the factory reversing camera doesn't display unless in ntg mode, is this a simple setting issue. Thanks Loz
U will have to use a Video Camera cable thats yellow from the OEM radio port (green in colour) to transfer camera video (CV- AND CA+) to the top Andriod Camera cable Yellow too and then u are good to go
Bluetooth sometimes connect to iPhone but struggles to connect. Zlink often does not connect automatically. What could be the issue? When turning vehicle off and on again Bluetooth won’t connect and Zlink won’t connect.
Hey bro. With the apps like you tube and Netflix I have no sound. Same with sometimes when playing music through car play. Seems that system doesn’t want to use volume only when on Bluetooth. Is there a system setting for this?
If you have to use the AUX to USB box the audio quality is horrific. I’m going to be trying an FM modulator as a work around, this is a hardwire solution, not to be confused with the fm transmitter.
Following this for a 2019 CLA - One question however, i'm thinking of installing ambient lighting kit with integration (hopefully) will the menus still pop up allowing me to set the colors?
Does anyone have a Burmester system! because I have the Burmester system and don't want a significant downgrade in quality. This is very important to me. I really like your video explanation. I'm from Holland myself. And here they don't have this great explanation.👋👋👋👋👌
In 21:38 How did you remove the speedometer that’s on the right hand side of the display? “ it comes up in the NTG menu and when I go into reverse” really annoying and takes up half the screen
Great video! I have similar Android screen. Everything works perfect, except phone calls. I can listen spotify with Android Auto, but when I answer a call I can't hear anybody, but everyone hear me. I don't have any idea where the problem is.
This is a great product. Just bought a 2014 W205 and system is not upgradable and I must replace the whole system. Any suppliers/installers in South Africa?
Great video I used it to installed a ugode 12.3 screen in to my 65 plate c250 and I don’t get any sound or radio function on ntg mode , really struggling . Any advice
Hello mates, I got a CLA (C117) with NTG 5 and I installed an android screen like that. All works fine but when Im using ¨the android part¨ it doesnt switch in automatic to the rear camera. The camera works perfect but I have to put the NTG mode by manual. Someboy can help me? Thanks a lot.
Thanks for the video. @the fitting bay ....question: does the FWD / BCK buttons on the steering wheel work to go to next or previous song in apple car play mode?
@@TheFittingBay thanks. I installed the system but couldnt get the fwd and back buttons to change songs on central consol. Volume dial works fine... Any ideas?
For anyone having issues with the carplay not connecting sometimes just go to the tablet SETTINGS -> Wifi and connections -> hotspot -> Make sure it's active and on 2.4 ghz. sometimes it's not working in 5 ghz and that's why it does not connect.
Perfect tutorial! Thanks a lot! My new screen is 12,3 inch, and has similar cable routings, but not identical to this. So i'm trying to install it based on this video, but not that easy.
since a few days my phone isn’t connecting anymore with the Bluetooth so no music calls car play of any kind works now and don’t know how to fix it? at Bluetooth telephone it now says not activated i think there’s something wrong with that. also in the android settings it shows nothing at the Bluetooth setting really weird and it worked before so something must be not right?
hello there. iv seen alooot of products online like this one, but no1 speaks about the sound quality. hows compared to the stock ones? ( i think will be the same because its not another unit, you just install it on the one you already got from factory) is that true?
Hello, I am from the UK and my Multimedia screen is showing black and white lines so none of the syetem which are controlled by screen are not working. but when i put it reverse gear it does show the back camera image for 3 to 4 seconds and then disappears and shows black and white lines. my car details are: C220 D bluetec, Reg 2015 in the UK. my question is if this screen got broke then how can i find the correct screen and can i change by myself by removing the plastic panel by using the plastic panel remover tool? thank you
I have problem with my w205 Mercedes-Benz. Its screen appeared “ Boot Loader Active” and could not run the operation on the screen. Then I replaced it with the Android Screen “Snapdragon 450 NTG 5.0, 8 G ram and 256 rom” but it failed to work. The sound system doesn’t work out and the When I operate the reverse gear, the camera doesn’t show the rear view and my new android screen shows “ Boot Loader Active” What shall I do to fix this.
Hi, great video , helped me through the installation , thanks i got a question been looking everywhere, how can i reduce audio lag/delay on carplay , tried everything.
Howcome it doesn’t have wireless android auto like the others? And it doesn’t have the direction assist (or whatever it’s called lol) on the screen when in reverse, like the others. Is this android 11 or 12?
i have a question, how can we code the car with the aux like you did? instead of plugging it into the usb port inside the storage compartment, it wasnt too clear in the video. Other than that, amazing tutorial
@@TheFittingBay Do you know where to get the dongle or the software to code it? Or is there something we can say to a dealership so they understand what to do? All the dealerships i've asked say they either don't know how or can't do it.
Hi Guys, thanks so much for the great video. I live in Brisbane, what is the cost I should expect to pay for the unit and the installation combined? Thanks in advance
Thanks for the install instructions. I just completed the installation and am having one problem. The reverse/backup camera feature doesn't work. When I put the car in reverse and the android screen is already booted up, absolutely nothing happens. I need to go to the NTG menu to see the back up camera and it works fine there. Any ideas?
@@SuperShowtimers the setting is already at oem camera so I’m not sure what the problem is or how to fix it. I do not have an aftermarket camera. I posted a video on my channel of the problem if you want to see it. Thanks..... I eventually figured out the problem. I had to make a change in the factory settings under CAN protocol from 5.0C to 5.0A.
Would like to know how it impacts sound quality on the burmester speakers when connected with usb. I never use bluetooth for playing music from my phone.
Hi everyone. I have C class 2017 model Is my W205 then? And is this the only one Android that is working in Mercedes C class? For those who have this one, are you satisfied? Im looking to buy one.
The purpose of the USB adapter is to feed the music output from the android screen into the original amp and speakers, therefore it needs to be plugged into one of the two USB ports in the console, as they are inputs to the amp. Plugging into one of the coloured USBs would just connect the screen back into itself. These may be used for transferring data/music files to the screen, or an SD card plugged into it, from a USB device. When setting up, you can, for example, plug the USB adapter into one of the console ports and a USB thumb drive into the other and then select which input to use from the devices selection in the Media tab under the NTG menu option on the screen - allowing you to play sound from the screen, or from the USB device. (One thing that invariably catches me out, no matter how often I do it, is that you must use the original selection wheel or touch pad on the console when in the NTG menu, and not the touch screen. Touching the screen will take you back to the android menu).
I’ve installed mine, all works brilliantly apart from when I make/receive a phone call - I get no call audio at all. Do I need to install the speaker and mic that came with the screen or is there a setting to use my OEM mic/speakers instead?

How was the sound quality? I have the Burmester system and don't want a significant downgrade in quality.
Hey Andrew,
Did you figure this out? That’s the only thing holding me back from buying one. Please let me know
If you have to use the AUX to USB box the audio quality is horrific.
I’m going to be trying an FM modulator as a work around, this is a hardwire solution, not to be confused with the fm transmitter.
i'm nervous about removing the air bag cover. removing it is pretty safe (won't activate) and won't void any warranties?
