I'd be surprised if the dealer is even still in business. They never returned my calls.

 

What is this after market device you speak of? Got a link to it?

 

 

 

Have wasted several days trying to get two different CarPlay kits working in a 2013 XF this week, had to give up in the end, nothing worked.

So no closer than we were months ago.

 

Thanks again for all of your work Cambo! I was in a Ford Flex (like a giant station wagon if they don't have them there) rental last weekend, Waze worked right through CarPlay, no jailbreak needed. (Might be a moot point now anyway.)

 

Waze now works on all Ford carplay systems without need for jailbreak. My wife's 2017 and my 2018 both got the update seamlessly. I'd really love to have Android Auto (which already worked with Waze) in the jag. subscribing for future breakthroughs!

 

I've been giving this some thought. I think I may have the basics to do this, and was wondering what was thought.

Use a Navtool Video in motion JAGUAR F-TYPE 2014-2018 VIDEO IN MOTION

This would give alternative video inputs.

Then you could connect a CarPlay into that, or at least the mirror capability.

I alo see that someone did it for a 2013 XKR. Wouldn't that have the same system as the 2014 F-Type?

 

The navtool box only does mirroring, you can't control anything from the touchscreen, it just takes over the screen and displays only.

The infotainment system in the XK is very different to the F-Type (it's much older), not that it matters because we have the same problem in the XK, can display only, no touch interaction.

 

Has anyone tried this new Android infotainment system for jaguar F-type ?

It looks amazing!!! it even has carplay integration.
please let me know if anyone has tried I totally want to get it.

Thanks

 

I dont know what Anti Blu Ray screen is, but I assume you lose dynamic mode among many other things.

 

Actually, If you watch the video at some point they show that you can go back and forward from the traditional Jag menu to the android OS. There is more information online and it looks you don't lose any of the jag factory features like the dynamic mode.

 

From what we see in the videos, you don't loose anything. And it seems a lot faster than our original.

 

Yes, I am very excited about this.
it looks we can even get it by amazon:


???

 

-E-Link feature can project iPhone or Android phone to this unit's screen
This kinda seems to be what Cambo said, projects on to the screen but no touchscreen functionality. (?)

 

mmm ... to it looks it has Full touchscreen functionality!
In addition, as the video shows it has 2 operative systems, the original Jaguar one and android OS.

 

This particular unit does have touch screen. You can see it in the video

 

Oh cool, sorry, shoulda watched before I commented...

 

That pretty much looks perfect as an upgrade. I wonder if it works with the NLI head unit, and what happens when the dealers want to upgrade the original infotainment system ? Also for those with reversing cameras, and parking assist, what happens when these are invoked ?

 

Finally watched the vids, it looks like there is rear/front camera support AND some kind of CarPlay emulation.
