Just finished upgrading to full screen (wanted to keep my B&W icons on the left — felt more stock that way). Raymond was great to work with!
We had a couple technical issues (none of which were his fault — faulty cable, incompatible Mac, etc). Be sure to get yourself a great quality Ethernet cable and the exact Ethernet adapters and flag if you have an intel mac vs an M1/M2 processor.
Very happy with end result! Highly recommend Raymond and Innovative Soft).
EDIT: After a couple hours I decided to upgrade to whole screen since I wanted the better resolution and scaled icons. Very happy!

FULL SCREEN Android Auto!! https://www.innovativesoftnz.com/
I have to second everything mentioned in this post. I just had this done for my C4S yesterday and Raymond was absolutely awesome! I ran into some issues on my end because of my laptop- old Toshiba from 1999 🤣, but Raymond was very patient and didn't bat an eyelid.
Extremely knowledgeable and very thorough with his work, he got AA up and running in no time once we were past my laptop issues.
If you want AA on your PCM5, this is THE SOLUTION. Everything looks OEM, and works perfectly. I have no complaints and would recommend Raymond and https://www.innovativesoftnz.com/ for sure!!
Raymond just installed same for me today. As others have noted, they are extremely patient and flexible. Got everything working with no fuss. Slick upgrade. For those (like me) who were concerned bout losing the tiles on the side that allow you to rapidly switch radio stations and the like, Raymond suggested that I make the unassigned switch on the dash a hotbutton for radio inputs. Works very nicely. Now if only we could get google maps to show up on the right guage cluster like the native (useless) navigation.
Thanks Raymond! Let us know what other upgrades you guys come up with!
Updated my old PCM to HD CarPlay with wireless mode. Dealership told that wireless mode is unavailable for MY2020, but Raymond helped with it. Highly recommend.

Another satisfied customer: Raymond was communicative and quick.

The streaming over bluetooth sounded "harsh" or something on Bermester system. IDK how to describe it exactly but I didn't like it. I have an android phone and preferred not switching to Apple to get streaming over USB. This fixed it, stereo sounds great and happy now - thanks Raymand!

Reviving this thread for a question: once AA launches, most of the time it works flawlessly.
However I have 2 problems I hope someone has the solution for: it takes quite some time for AA to become available on PCM once I turn the car on, so maybe a minute or two. And when in need for immediate driving (and most importantly getting Waze directions), this delay is annoying. Any way to speed it up?
Also sometimes AA randomly disconnects, I have to wait a minute or two for it to appear on PCM again. Anyone faces this too?
1. I think the spool time is consistent with the amount of time it takes PCM to spool the home screen and activate my homelink access.
2. I had the same issues with disconnect, and they got worse. I DO NOT have these issues with my S23 phone. I had them with my S-9.
a) do not connect your phone to the car's BT. Let the wire be your only connection. Otherwise they conflict.
b) if your connection is via a dongle, the only BT connection between your phone and your car should be thru the dongle. Do not connect your phone to car's BT. Otherwise they conflict.
c) I am not a patient customer, and I was inclined NOT to believe the issues were related to operator error and/or my phone. Raymond was very consistent in his helpful feedback, and I was growing weary. In the end, it was all on me/my phone. My S23 has worked flawlessly. "Five Thumbs Up!"
