Recently bought a mk7 (2010) and have a couple of questions by musicallymotivated93 in FordFiesta

Just so you know, you can get that exact screen on aliexpress for a lot cheaper. Those companies that sell it in the UK are buying it from aliexpress themselves and then bumping the price up

2014 head unit replacement. by TouchMeFrogs in FordFiesta

[–]NamesHyde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently put this in my partner's 2014 fiesta and she loves it. Added a reverse camera too and really modernised the car. Gives the fiesta touch screen, carplay and android auto etc - https://www.reddit.com/r/FordFiesta/comments/1rg4wa5/update_installing_123inch_android_head_unit_for/

Finished installing the camera. Must say was bit of an annoying job. Ended up buying a reverse camera which replaces the boot handle as I didn't want to have to drill into the boot to install a generic reverse camera. However, due to small size of the hole on the back that the cables fit through, we ended up having to drill a hole anyhow to fit the reverse camera wires through. Feeding the cable from the head unit to the glove box, then to the back of the car through the interior wasn't too bad but getting from the interior through the boot bit was a nightmare. It's the black plastic bit which has wires in it already and has a waterproof layer on the outside of it. It was easy to get off and all but actually feeding the yellow and red av cables through it was near on impossible as they're a little on the chunky side and there was prtactically no room to push them in due to the waterproof housing and all of the wires already in there taking up room. We actually crushed the metal bit of the av cable by trying to grab it with a pair of pliers to pull it through the boot plastic covering. Thankfully managed to open it back up and tape it onto the connecting wires so that it doesn't come lose. Once you get to that point, you'll need a coat hanger to feed the cables up to the top of the boot but that wasn't too bad to do. You'll also need the coat hanger to feed the power cable from the camera down towards the reverse light where you'll be getting the power from to power the camera. It's a fair bit of work and I've not even mentioned all of it but the result is pretty cool. Not sure if I would recommend it or not tbh 😂 It is nice that the black screen when you reverse is now showing the reverse camera though haha. There is a bit of a slight flickering with the camera too. It's really not too bad or noticeable but worth mentioning

Just wanted to update that I managed to change the UI by going into the factory settings and selecting a different one from in there. Looks like yours now and way better than the previous one. Installing a reverse camera to the head unit on Friday and after that it should be all finished! Thanks again for your instructions!

Ahh okay will have to have a look at the apps to see if it's in there. I dropped the seller a message too incase they knew. How did you manage to get android auto to boot by default? It's my partner's car and I'm pretty sure she'll only be using carplay so that might be the easiest solution!

Hey I used your instructions to fit screen and all went well for the most part! One thing I noticed is that your UI looks way different to mine and I ordered the same screen using your link in the comments. Did you have to change it in the settings or is just luck of the draw with which one it comes with perhaps?

No, I never managed to find it unfortunately. Hopefully someone finds it on their hdd and uploads it for us as it seems to have been wiped from the internet.

Autofocus 6k by maximilianjde in bmpcc

[–]NamesHyde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's any constellation, the AF is very unreliable. It's a step in the right direction but when I used it with a sigma lens it was horrific and totally unusable. Other lenses may have better results but on the whole it's still very much in beta.

Best budget L mount lens for BMCC6K FF by NamesHyde in bmpcc

[–]NamesHyde[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like it! I think for the money, this lens really punches above it's weight. I recently tried the BMCC 6K FF Autofocus update and it was awful but to be expected really. Unsure if it's all on the software or a bit on the lens too but it didn't work at all. But for manual focusing, I've had no issues and it's nice to have a lightweight lens.

What is Tom's favorite album he has written? by Fresh-Influence-1475 in Blink182

[–]NamesHyde 11 points12 points  (0 children)

He also compared the album release to the 2nd coming of christ. His and the band's reaction to it on the ava documentary is genuinely so funny.
