Hi, does the reverse camera feature still function on screen when you are running other apps ie Apple Music, or do you have to be on the original merc set up menu. Cheers
Hi I want to ask about the DVR function. You say its to record if you have front camera, but I wonder is it working with the original camera from the 360 that come with the car? Ot just with additional after market cam. Thank you
I have a quick question. Since you installed it yourself, do you have to install the GPS receiver that comes with the screen? I plan on just using Apple CarPlay and my navigation apps. Or do you have to install the GPS unit that comes with it?
Great video mate. I viewed a car today with this screen already installed. However I just couldn’t get the CarPlay to work which is a massive thing for us. Maybe bit stressful with the salesguy looking over me … Was trying Bluetooth but just didn’t seem to connect. Any advice or a video dedicated to getting CarPlay specifically set up ? Thanks a lot Dan
Great video and indeed a massive upgrade for my W204. Does the sound from the unit come out through any new speaker that came with the new unit or is it all routed to the original speakers? How about microphone? Does it use a new microphone for calls or does it automatically work with the OEM one in the car? Those are the details I still need to find out before ordering one of these. Massive thanks if you can help!
Wow! Only one question: when you turn on the car, I can see in the video that the screen takes around 20/25 seconds to turn on. If I put the reverse gear while the screen is turning on (during these 20 seconds) the rear camera can quicky activates? Or I have to wait 20 seconds to see the rear camera view on the screen? Thank you
Nice video! I have a question: Is the NaviFly N600 built-in carplay wireless or wired? Or can it be used both ways? I see that you are connected via bluetooth and the carplay skips directly ... that's my question! Thanks a lot!
Can I ask, you know the usb aux box...is all the wiring for that concealed? It looked like there was some coming out of the left side of the centre console?
@@LifeOfEmi Thank you very much for your reply! I live in the dark (by wintertime) north, and it is very frustrating with the glare from interior equipment :)

Hi, my one was working perfectly but I went onto the ntg media and then back only my car play and I can head a humming noise- when I put the song on mute I can still hear it. The volume doesn’t go up far either, any advice on this thabks
Hello great video! Thanks Are you still happy with it? I was going to make carplay interface with stock screen but do you think I should change the screen instead? Thanks again.
Thanks! I’m happy with the screen yes, I have also fitted the stock screen CarPlay box into a friends car, I think if you want the facelift look then the android screen is good, and in terms of using CarPlay it looks a lot nicer, however if you want a more seamless experience with less hassle and quickly loading up then the stock screen CarPlay box is better, the android screen isn’t that much of hassle for myself personally but everyone will be different, I am soon however installing the oem facelift screen and digital cluster soon so will be making a video on that

@@DragonM109R Your wheel knob and buttons should work in the NON NTG mode as well (in the Android interface, in most apps and also in CarPlay/Android Auto if you have that on the unit). Try swapping the A/B connectors (these control the car's CAN bus). They are white boxy connectors and there should be labels A, B and A/B on them, and should must have been supplied with the unit you have bought.

Just checking, the steering wheel controls don't work with the screen? and if you have Burmeister sound, is that the same install process? and also, how does DAB radio work?
The steering wheel controls work when you have the phone connected with MB Bluetooth, I’ve not used it in any other way, and it’s the same process with burmester, and I have DAB built into my original NTG mode and so I don’t have DAB installed on the android side
Thanks mate, just trying to understand the daily workings. So if you want to listen to DAB you just run it as normal from NTG, but you can still then run the Android screen, example Google Maps etc while the DAB plays? And if you keep the phone connected to the NTG, you just use that as normal, example while in Google maps, you can hit the voice control on the steering wheel and say "call xyz" and it calls as normal?
I have the oem reverse camera and yes it switches automatically to it, if you have 360 degree camera it will also show that as it’s in the same screen as the reverse camera
Personally I think the 10.25 inch screen looks more oem, and on the Facebook groups anecdotally I feel I see more problems with the 12.3 inch screens than the 10.25 inch
@Start: Left-hand drive. @0m30s: RIght-hand drive. Hint - selfie mode doesn't need to record in mirror image mode; check camera settings; ...please. :-) !!
Excellent video. I have just pit the 12.3" version in my GLC and using my phone as a hot sport so cam have full screen Google maps only problem is when someone calls it opens the phone app and you then can't go to anything until you end the call, does yours do that? Would be nice to be on a call but still have Google maps open. Thanks.
To be honest with you I only use the screen for CarPlay, have never tried it your way, if you use CarPlay can use google maps on it and answer calls at the same time no problem
@@LifeOfEmi Thanks, yeah I have an android phone and it works OK with android auto but its not wireless and Google maps isn't full screen. Seems I can't have the best of both 😕
@@nickclarke2444 just out of interest, did you use zlink to get android auto working? As my unit said it had it built in but when connecting an android phone it didnt work
Hi.. I have same unit that I installed today.. But cant hear Audio.. How you connected? I see cable connected to a port called mic but its labeled Audio out so I connected to the USB Audio device that goes to usb 1 in console... Or is there a setting in device to route audio? thanks
There should be a 3.5mm cable coming out of the screen, you connect the usb to 3.5mm box to that, I think it is labelled audio out, and then go on the Mercedes NTG mode and set it to usb aux on the options list
thanks.. I had actually gone out and removed console and noticed that I had connected to other 3.5mm I believe it's for MIC.. hadn't noticed second one at time and thankfully it was hanging in sight so didn't have to take head unit off again.. just center console. :) but thansk again for reply and Merry Xmas !!
If your in android (not ntc) and go into reverse dose the reverse camera work? Secondly what settings have you got to show your climate information showing on the bottom?
Yes it automatically switched to the reverse camera and goes off when you’re out of reverse, it has its own climate pop up bar which comes up when you press the climate control buttons, looked better than the oem one in fact
I just got this installed. I’m using apple car play, I can hear directions just fine, but I can’t hear my music... the song will show as playing on my phone, but there’s no sound through the car speakers nor my phone speakers. Why is this?
Hey, buddy! I'm facing an issue when using Android Auto. When I receive a call then a blue call screen appears when being in a call. So I can't use Google Maps while talking. Any thoughts? 😁
nice bro, this is sick could you link where you got it from? I keep seeing different ones online but I like this one the most could you please list the link ? thanks
You can send the audio via mercedes original NTG bluetooth and use CarPlay, but in my opinion I have been using this method and sometimes the screen it shows the original Mercedes menu when changing songs from the steering wheel, you just have to go back to CarPlay, and it is also heard better by taking the sound out via AUX since the audio is transmitted via WiFi and not via bluetooth :)

Yes this is a whole different unit with CarPlay built in, so replaces your existing unit and so even you don’t have CarPlay before you can still install it
@@LifeOfEmi thanks for getting back to me. Im defo on the hunt in buying a navifly screen. Keep up the videos they're really helpful and inspiring to amateurs like me who want to do modes lol
Hi there, Im using an iphone and i mainly use apple music. Does auto play of music still work and Would the steering wheel up and down buttons to skip songs still work ? Many thanks :)
So if you connect your phone to the MB Bluetooth at the same time as the android screen you can use CarPlay and all the sound will play through MB Bluetooth, you have to select on your phone on the music app to play through MB Bluetooth instead of CarPlay though, and that way you can use the steering wheel controls and also see the song playing on your speedometer. I do it this way takes 2 seconds when you start the car up
@@LifeOfEmi Brilliant ! I always just use MB Bluetooth and if it still appears on the speedo then that is great. I guess it will show the songs on the car play screen too ?
@@fcbarcelona4eva yeah so when you click Apple Music on CarPlay it’ll show it, sometimes it’ll switch back over to output through CarPlay on the phone, so you’ll have to click on the phone again to play through MB Bluetooth
@@LifeOfEmi thank you so much for your responses emi ! Really helps me decide on buying this. One last thing, with google maps, does need internet teathered from my phone or can it use the gps on the car ?
@@fcbarcelona4eva no worries! so with that it’ll use the GPS antenna built in the system but you’ll need some sort of internet connection to download the maps
i installed it and when start the car, the screen switch on, but if i stop the car and leave (for example, fill benzine) and then, when enter again, switch on the car, the screens not starts (display black). It only happens in short stops, if i leave the car 1h for example, then when switch on, screen works properly in starts. Anyone knows which could be the problem?
This happened to me more often when I first installed the screen, if this happens just switch the car off, open the driver door and lock the car even if you’re sat inside and then wait about 20 seconds and then restart the car and it’ll work

Hello mate what do you think is better the 10.24 or the 12.3 ?
Personally I think the 10.25 inch screen looks more oem, and on the Facebook groups anecdotally I feel I see more problems with the 12.3 inch screens than the 10.25 inch
Hi how much for this screen plz?
@Start: Left-hand drive. @0m30s: RIght-hand drive. Hint - selfie mode doesn't need to record in mirror image mode; check camera settings; ...please. :-) !!
How do i display android auto apps?
If you're in the Android screen and hit reverse does camera view still come up or do you need to be in the otg menu?
Yes it does then it'll switch back
Excellent video. I have just pit the 12.3" version in my GLC and using my phone as a hot sport so cam have full screen Google maps only problem is when someone calls it opens the phone app and you then can't go to anything until you end the call, does yours do that? Would be nice to be on a call but still have Google maps open. Thanks.
To be honest with you I only use the screen for CarPlay, have never tried it your way, if you use CarPlay can use google maps on it and answer calls at the same time no problem
@@LifeOfEmi Thanks, yeah I have an android phone and it works OK with android auto but its not wireless and Google maps isn't full screen. Seems I can't have the best of both 😕
@@nickclarke2444 just out of interest, did you use zlink to get android auto working? As my unit said it had it built in but when connecting an android phone it didnt work
@@LifeOfEmi Yes I was told it was wireless but I think that's just carplay. I used a USB cable and zlink to connect.
Hi.. I have same unit that I installed today.. But cant hear Audio.. How you connected?
I see cable connected to a port called mic but its labeled Audio out so I connected to the USB Audio device that goes to usb 1 in console...
Or is there a setting in device to route audio? thanks
There should be a 3.5mm cable coming out of the screen, you connect the usb to 3.5mm box to that, I think it is labelled audio out, and then go on the Mercedes NTG mode and set it to usb aux on the options list
thanks.. I had actually gone out and removed console and noticed that I had connected to other 3.5mm I believe it's for MIC.. hadn't noticed second one at time and thankfully it was hanging in sight so didn't have to take head unit off again.. just center console. :) but thansk again for reply and Merry Xmas !!
@@DragonM109R glad you got it sorted, you too mate!
If your in android (not ntc) and go into reverse dose the reverse camera work?
Secondly what settings have you got to show your climate information showing on the bottom?
Yes it automatically switched to the reverse camera and goes off when you’re out of reverse, it has its own climate pop up bar which comes up when you press the climate control buttons, looked better than the oem one in fact
@@LifeOfEmi Does it switch over to the reverse camera when in android mode, because my reverse camera only displays when in NTC.
I just got this installed. I’m using apple car play, I can hear directions just fine, but I can’t hear my music... the song will show as playing on my phone, but there’s no sound through the car speakers nor my phone speakers. Why is this?
because you didn’t switch the audio cables from the main unit of the car to the added unit it comes with
watch some other videos there’s people who explain it
Quick question is this the 1280 x740 or the 1920 x 720?
Hi it’s 1920x720.
Hey, buddy! I'm facing an issue when using Android Auto. When I receive a call then a blue call screen appears when being in a call. So I can't use Google Maps while talking. Any thoughts? 😁
Contact the company you bought it from. They should be able to help you.
My car stereo not working with that screen
Where I can buy
nice bro, this is sick could you link where you got it from? I keep seeing different ones online but I like this one the most could you please list the link ? thanks
Check the link in description
I saw in flexx’s video he said you can’t use the steering wheel controls (changing volumes, skipping songs) with this screen, is this true?
Volume is the only thing that works for flexx video
You can send the audio via mercedes original NTG bluetooth and use CarPlay, but in my opinion I have been using this method and sometimes the screen
it shows the original Mercedes menu when changing songs from the steering wheel, you just have to go back to CarPlay, and it is also heard better by taking the sound out via AUX since the audio is transmitted via WiFi and not via bluetooth :)
@@sergiomadrid4796 ahh got it, thanks for the response bro
Hi mate does this fit the Aclass as well as I have a Mercedes A250.Where did you get it and how much.

@@LifeOfEmi hi there you say you have sent a link in the comments? Where as i cannot see can you send it to me please.

That’s the link to mine thanks
@@LifeOfEmi thanks,did you fit it yourself? Is it ok to do and does everything work on it.Yours is a Cclass yeah as i have a Aclass.Thsnk you for your time.
Can u show how u got the AUX 2 display on u screen?
Great video, how and where did you download the Mercedes logo?
It has error when call by Facetime . We can talk but can’t see caller , and , the caller can see us
This will be because the screen doesn't have a camera
@@Geezy-qz6gl how to fix it , bro ?
Get video, and im very much interested in getting a andriod screen like, but my worry is because my car is a w205 2015, which doesnt have factory fitted apple car play and i've read thay because my car doesnt support apple car play i cant retrofit, soo will this screen work for my andriod phone for my car?
Yes this is a whole different unit with CarPlay built in, so replaces your existing unit and so even you don’t have CarPlay before you can still install it
@@LifeOfEmi thanks for getting back to me. Im defo on the hunt in buying a navifly screen. Keep up the videos they're really helpful and inspiring to amateurs like me who want to do modes lol
Hi there, Im using an iphone and i mainly use apple music. Does auto play of music still work and Would the steering wheel up and down buttons to skip songs still work ? Many thanks :)
So if you connect your phone to the MB Bluetooth at the same time as the android screen you can use CarPlay and all the sound will play through MB Bluetooth, you have to select on your phone on the music app to play through MB Bluetooth instead of CarPlay though, and that way you can use the steering wheel controls and also see the song playing on your speedometer. I do it this way takes 2 seconds when you start the car up
@@LifeOfEmi Brilliant ! I always just use MB Bluetooth and if it still appears on the speedo then that is great. I guess it will show the songs on the car play screen too ?
@@fcbarcelona4eva yeah so when you click Apple Music on CarPlay it’ll show it, sometimes it’ll switch back over to output through CarPlay on the phone, so you’ll have to click on the phone again to play through MB Bluetooth
@@LifeOfEmi thank you so much for your responses emi ! Really helps me decide on buying this. One last thing, with google maps, does need internet teathered from my phone or can it use the gps on the car ?
@@fcbarcelona4eva no worries! so with that it’ll use the GPS antenna built in the system but you’ll need some sort of internet connection to download the maps
Can get gt63 s steering wheel for about £1500
i installed it and when start the car, the screen switch on, but if i stop the car and leave (for example, fill benzine) and then, when enter again, switch on the car, the screens not starts (display black). It only happens in short stops, if i leave the car 1h for example, then when switch on, screen works properly in starts. Anyone knows which could be the problem?
This happened to me more often when I first installed the screen, if this happens just switch the car off, open the driver door and lock the car even if you’re sat inside and then wait about 20 seconds and then restart the car and it’ll work
