Worked like a charm... a couple of things I ran into. 1- The SD update would not auto-run until I fully turned the car on 2- The green would not activate unless I pressed the Car and Tuner button the entire time, otherwise it'd go back to the Home screen 3- After the the patch_unit_aio process finished, it gave a few errors but then said "You can now go back" I plugged my phone in and it worked! Thanks for sharing this info!
Just updated my 2017 boxster using your video... Not everything was exactly the same during the install process, but figured it out and it worked like a charm! Thank you so so so much for putting this video together!
If you're doing this I URGE you to make sure that your patches are properly extracted into the patches folder. I didn't the first time and noticed that nothing was actually extracted into them so when I did the installation process, everything went somewhat smoothly until I connected my phone and nothing happened. I then uninstalled MIB from the porsche and properly extracted the patches into the patches folder and redid the entire installation. BOOM NOW IT WORKS THANK YOU!!!
@@doctordevarious1177 it worked like a charm just now, it's insane, and i'm myself a sofwtare engineer, this baffles my brain, i was like (there's no way it works as i already got apple carplay enabled but not android) damn how i lied to myself. Just a weird behavior but once the 3 reboots happend, there was a "1 (OK) 0 (NO) 0 (NOK)" and I though it was asking me to click 1 as the script was at (0%) (indeed, I couldn't click on any 1 button because there was none..) but I guess it was just the confirmation message that everything got installed. I was septic at first that it was some kind of malware but I honestly trusted you from a to z although in the corner of my brain there was a big red light saying - why would someone be willing to give so much time and effort in explaining something liek that ? either to get something in return or probably willing to get his VIP spot in heaven - I opted for the second option.
Hi ! So helpful. The system recognizes my android auto, however, nothing happens following that. When I check the system (car+tuner) matrix screen, it does state that there are missing files, such as "FW is not yet known to MIB" and tells me to copy MH12_US_POG11_K3300_MU0809_PATCH to SD card." What to do? thxx!

ok, the key bit of info I didn't have was the extract the PATCHES using a 7 zip tool, which I had to download and install in my computuer. then, extract all and copy over to the MIB patches subfolder... there are a lot of files and takes some time. that was what I missed. I had copied over the .7z file only.
@@MrFezco it sounds like you're missing a step or performing something improperly.

ok... I did the whole process. it says also everything is installed properly when checking - but there is no icon on the main screen to activate. Did I miss maybe something?

Quick question. Does yours have the BOSE sound system? If yes, does the sound and everything work correct? I’ve heard some have gotten their BOSE sound screwed after MIB update/patch
