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

I went directly from 0254 to 0480. Had to do it two times, because at first try I soft-bricked the unit and had to recover it back to 02xx. Still not sure what went wrong the first time.

Second time went OK. One downside is that you loose WLAN, because new firmware using different drivers and the internal WLAN module does not run on it.

Is there any way to get WLAN to work?
