That’s not what I was asking, I want to connect the screen just as a screen without the android system, I was thinking of doing it by connecting the original car harness(not the harness supplied with the product).
i just wonder if the screen will turn on?(ofc without the android system)

I see, it’s really seems like that, but I saw the CarPlay function only working with the touch screen and not the **** so it’s not that functional(since the screen is too far).
i guess I’ll use beat-sonic solution and stay with the small screen.
thanks for the help

this is for people with jog wheel (navigation unit) he said a new gen screen is coming out in November with new processor and 4gb ram and 64gb rom.

preview jog wheel model unit is discontinued. So look out for it in november whoever is interested.

I wonder when this will be released. This is what I am waiting on. As soon as this is released I am going to order.

So this will be new/updated physical hardware, and for both nav/non-nav, or just those of us with nav? Have they indicated anything about the screen itself such as specs, or is the entire system itself being upgraded hardware-wise? Hopefully everything comes out shortly!
