8.4" to 12.1" screen replacement

Can anyone point me to where about in this massive thread I can find the process for 8.4 non nav to 12” upgrade from start to finish? I’ve been through a good bit of the thread but it’s so much I must be missing it.
Jimmy 07 will tell you everything he knows it

pages 16-18 its there
 
well thought that with the 12.1 Radio i would be able to have internet access in my truck besides all the other uconnect features i totally disappointed everything its related with the VIN and because my truck originally came with 8.4 Non Nav cant have it , any suggestions will be always welcome
 
Can anyone tell me the differences between the two different 12" part numbers?

The one with OUT the lane assist and parking buttons is $200 more?

For you it's the same. You'll have 2 not functioning buttons. I got the cheaper one with extra buttons and it works flawlessly.

I did the same upgrade, non nav to 12" nav. I didn't do it for internet features or guardian but! If I wanted those features they aren't available to me? That doesn't seem right! I'm assuming you called guardian?

They're not available to you...
 
In Alfa obd to change settings is everyone still using the Pacifica vehicle selection or do you use the MY19 vehicle selection?

Also are you guys disconnecting the battery doing the swap?

I did use Pacifica.
I disconnected my battery for the swap and I advise you to, too.
 
Working on repinning the connector. Can’t seem to get the pins to release? Paper clip in the terminal side and pull?

Be careful not to muck that harness up. Take a break n figure out how it’s actually released

Retried many, many times. Even pulled the system settings from AlphaODB and "ICS integrated center stack" is listed as Not Enabled and "Cabin Net DCSD display screen module" is listed as Enabled (in both the Android and Windows versions of AlphaODB.)
Can you fix the problem ?

Got it all done and pinned. Definitely was a bit of a challenge. Everything seems to be good to go with the Alfa changes etc!
 
For a 2019 should I be selecting My2019 PowerNet or one of the DT PowerNet Var?

BTW: IDK if you can use your phone for this, you need a Windows version...
 
I believe they updated the app and it allows you to change what we need while using the app on an Android device, not just the windows version now. Correct me if I'm wrong so I can go ahead and request a key for the windows version.
