I currently have a 2018 F-Type R, with the 8" In Control Touch Pro system. I'd like to attempt to upgrade to the 10" model with CarPlay/AndroidAuto - I know there have been a number of threads here about doing this, but unfortunately often they end up stalling due to needing to update the CCF. I'd like to purchase all the supplies needed to give this a try myself (am a software dev by trade so not afraid to get my hands dirty with some technical stuff)

Main reference thread:

So far I have gathered I need:

Hardware:

• GX63-19C299-AC - 10" Infotainment screen
• T2R38268 / KX53-047A04-AC, Outer screen bezel (the shiny black part you see)
• T2R26653 / KX53-10F838-AA, Bracket cover (the inner bracket that the display attaches too)

For updating CCF/running Pathfinder

• DA Doip Dongle to interface to PC (https://www.diagnostic-associates.co...da-doip-dongle)
• PC running Pathfinder software
• Topix paid subscription to allow Pathfinder to update CCF
• Power supply for consistent current while running updates (

Actual updating of CCF (from: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...#post2177585):
Does all of this sound correct? My hope is to be able to document the whole process of doing this so other folks in the USA can also get this upgrade done However, I want to confirm before I go down the rabbit hole and start spending money 😅 Any help from the more experienced here would be great, thank you!

This does look correct to me. I have the screen etc but hoping to see someone in the US do the software changes.

I know there is someone in the UK who does this and I can point you their way if you get stuck so they can potentially help.

Hoping to see more positive updates

 

Thanks! I'll start gathering the parts and if (when, heh) I run into obstacles I may give you a PM

 

I am very interested in this as well here in the US. Last year I purchased the UAD unit, and had nothing but issues with it after an update…worked with UAD for months on end trouble shooting, then eventually was given a return auth, sent it back, let them know multiple times it was there sitting at their local depot needing customs payment (thought I needed to pay customs come to find out they needed to). It now is currently being returned to sender and UAD wants me to try and re send it back…needless to say I am not going to go through all that again and just use it with all the bugs it currently has…sorry for the rant but needed to get that off my chest lol. Pretty disappointed in UAD not willing to send me a new unit after this whole ordeal…so def not recommending them anymore to anyone on the forums.

 

Sorry to hear about the issues with UAD's unit :\ will definitely update you when I give it a try!

 

Has anyone in US had luck with getting the CCF update done at a dealer or any 3rd party? So far all the places I called said they don’t do such Pathfinder software modifications and the local dealer wouldn’t do it either.
