When you set the cluster on the navigation menu option it displays video from the HDMI in port if anything is connected. Turns out you don't need a new Android screen from the seller to do this.
I found two USB to HDMI adapters on Amazon, One uses a MS9120 chip and the other uses a SM768 chip. Both worked with my existing 12.5 inch aftermarket Android screen.They both come with Android drivers.
The Android software is called SMI InstantView in the Play store or on the Wavlink website. Current version is v2.21.2.0
The generic KLOMIER adapter uses a MS9120 chip and is only $14. The image quality is the same as the Wavlink.
T
his adapter has two selectable resolutions in the settings,1920 x 1080p or 1280 x 720p. (I toggled this option while connected to my cluster and nothing changed)
It also has two Output Quality options, low and high. (I toggled this option while connected to my cluster and nothing changed)
The Android software is called MSDisplay_Android and it comes loaded inside the adapter or can be found in Github online under MindShow/USBDisplay project. It's not in the Play store. Current version is V2.0.1.3.
Could you tell me if I connect the generic KLOMIER adapter that uses an MS9120 to my Android screen, how do I install the MsDisplay software on the screen? Does it install automatically when loaded inside the adapter? since it cannot be downloaded from the play store

ok ok thank you very much, a question for you since you have tried it, do you think it is worth changing it? I'm looking at the possibility of buying it at Pemp car Audio, what do you think? Would you change it?

I would not take apart your oem cluster just yet. This digital cluster is still missing many icons, settings and required messages.
For example, if you start your car, open the driver door and shift into reverse. There should be a warning message. There is no "hands off steering wheel" warning when in distronic cruise. There is no adaptive high beam assist icon.
I am not sure what year c class they are using for their testing, but some settings are not for the 2015 W205.
Still a beta work in progress. Don't fully install this for your safety.

ok ok thanks for your response and sincerity, I think I'll wait what I don't know is when a new one will come out.
My car is from 2018, there are surely warnings that will not appear, a shame it looks very good.

Hello, what do you mean by that function (dystronic cruise mode)? Is it the cruise speed function or speed limiter?
¿La función de velocidad de crucero (Tempomat) establece una velocidad constante y aparece en el grupo digital?What icons in your opinion are missing???

The honest truth is it's still a work in progress. About 65% complete IMHO. Mine needs more updates to be complete for my 2015 w205 and all its features.
Also, I am not sure if each seller is doing their own updates or using the same developer and getting updates directly from the manufacturer. They will need to collect canbus data for your car if features and icons are missing.
The speedometer needs to be updated for my car to show 160 miles max not 260. The great news is this one works with my HUD, shows the media information (like song info) in the center, shows Distronic info and active lane keeping warning.
It's a great start but more work is still needed.
Previously, I purchased the first version of the control screen, and it caused me quite a bit of trouble. It drained the car battery overnight, which eventually led to a damaged battery.
The original HUD system in my car was not compatible with it, and this incompatibility was the primary cause of the power loss after shutting off the engine. This issue consumed a lot of time and effort to address.
I’m curious about how this new version has performed during the days you’ve been using it. Have you encountered any inconveniences worth mentioning? Has the seller released any updates for the system yet? Your insights would be greatly appreciated!
Anteriormente, compré la primera versión de la pantalla de control y me causó bastantes problemas. Agotó la batería del automóvil durante la noche, lo que eventualmente provocó que la batería se dañara.
El sistema HUD original de mi automóvil no era compatible con él, y esta incompatibilidad fue la causa principal de la pérdida de potencia después de apagar el motor. Este problema consumió mucho tiempo y esfuerzo para solucionarlo.
Tengo curiosidad por saber cómo se ha comportado esta nueva versión durante los días que la ha estado usando. ¿Ha encontrado algún inconveniente que valga la pena mencionar? ¿El vendedor ya ha publicado alguna actualización para el sistema? ¡Sus comentarios serán muy apreciados!
¿Cómo supo que era el grupo digital el que estaba agotando la batería?
¿Qué versión del grupo digital compró? ¿Era como esta tercera generación?

I bought the first version, not this third-generation one. It took me more than six months to figure out that the issue was caused by the car's HUD when connected to it. I was so frustrated that I removed it and installed it in another car without a HUD function, and it worked fine.
Just bought one about 2 months ago and everything works for me. I don't have distronics but have HUD and park assist. No issue. It's paired with my new 12.3 android 13 screen. The one I have also can do wireless carplay or android auto but a bit clunky to use an doesn't always connect. So I have it connected to my android screen instead so I can see android auto on the cluster.
Also I didn't have to remove the oem lcd screen or the guage dials on my cluster version when I transfered to electronics over to the new cluster.
Mine needs more updates to be complete for my 2015 w205 and all its features.
