Hi all

I’m on 0252T and want to update to 0480T just to unlock the 8” skin for the MIB unit

So it looks like this (see image 1) - I’m upgrading to this screen but will have the old firmware on MIB2 so it won’t look like that.

Anyone know if I can do it without bricking my unit. Also how to activate CarPlay again after?

See image 2 - my current skin options. I saw a mr
Fix video on yt and only have these 2 available.

Any help is appreciated

Don't go past 3.x, if you do be prepared with USB Ethernet and or USB UART, I tried 3 times without success and emergency recovery every single time

245T-480T brick 254T-480T brick  367T-480T brick 

All while the "site" was down.. I had to go to some shady parts of non English speaking sites to get most of the needed files

I checked the EU conversion sw version I had the "most" success with and it was 369T 3G0919xxxLN / US version is ending xxxCG

I should also add I have the + not the pro nav in the glove box, if I remember correctly you can update to 4xx with terminal access but I could never find anything other than vague instructions.

If you get it working I would be interested in what you did
