BMW X1 Carplay Fullscreen
Has anyone cracked the barrier for fullscreen carplay on ENTRYNAV2 (I believe that's what the 2020 ships with...)
Just bought a new one and sad to see not much progresss, the blocker seems to be the modification of the carplay configuration file for resolution and app icon grid layout (carplay.ini?) from my research on NBTEVO coding... Because you can flip the carplay_fullscreen flag and it will stretch. Looking for any more info, kinda stuck and split screen looks like ass :P Also if anyone could share a .bin file that worked on NBT_EVO models, I want to take a look into what exactly was modified. |

If the process is anything like it is for other F-gen cars, then you can probably have it done by kubax86, another bimmerpost member.
He unlocked fullscreen carplay for my F87 and does other models too. It's worth a shot. Just PM him, and for $45 (if you already have carplay, or $65 if you don't yet) he can unlock it for you. If I recall correctly, he just sends you a VIN-specific file to put on a USB, which you later plug into your car to upload. Easy peasy.

Kubax86 just confirmed what I suspected, this is not possible on an ENTRYNAV system, you need NBTEvo, etc Last edited by dianebrat; 08-20-2020 at 01:35 PM.. |

Exactly, Fullscreen is not possible on ENTRYNAV2 systems (WAY maps) but it's still possible to activate CarPlay on some units. It needs to have WiFi antenna installed or at least possible to install WiFi antenna.

For people without Android Auto but have the executive or professional package and the larger 8.8" Screen with Navi and RTTI. My X1 is a 2018 (mfg date is 3rd quarter 2017 as a 2018 model. Is it possible to get full screen video to play while the vehicle is parked?

I have the larger screen and my screen does not play videos while parked. Mine is a 2018 Canadian X1 with Professional Nav...Can this be modified to play even partial screen? I do not have Apple Car Play or Android Auto. I don't like Android Auto and I have Android Smart Phone (Samsung S10). It's weird because it shows color pictures at high res from the album covers while in Sirius XM.

Any news on full screen car play ?
A new owner of the 25e in Greece just uploaded the photo below of a full screen car play. Is there any new firmware update ?

Not really, as it needs some knowledge and software.
Today we did it on MINI F56 and it works flawless
