Upgrading from MIB1 to MIB2 on skoda octavia MK3
Yes you need to change the usb port if you want to have carplay, part code 5Q0035726E. By the way do you own an OBD device such as OBD11 or VCDS?

Upgrading from MIB1 to MIB2 on skoda octavia MK3
The screen you listed is compatible with a MIB2 glovebox unit (5Q0035874A) so it is “MIB2”. But you will need to get the glovebox unit I mentioned before for it to work. As long as you get component protection removed, smartlink activated and some features coded it will work fine. By the way do you have the Canton sound system in your car?

Open circuit on all speakers
I did not notice that I had bought the wrong unit again, who even notices that there is a Q instead of an E in the code. Anyways, yesterday I did the coding and at first I didn’t get any sound, but a couple of hours later I accidentaly bumped a steering wheel button which changed to the radio and suddenly there was sound. Although bluetooth won’t work for some reason but I can use aux. For now I’m happy with it but sometime in the future I’d possibly like to do that MIB2 upgrade or get that bluetooth fixed.

Upgrading from MIB1 to MIB2 on skoda octavia MK3
Hey there I had the same idea a couple of months ago. You will need a new glovebox unit with the code 5Q0035874A (150€~). The new unit will need to get component protection removed (around 60€ in Estonia), Smartlink activated (for Android Auto or Carplay, costs upwards of 200€ I’ve heard) and some further coding to enable features. Also the USB needs to get replaced to use Smartlink, product code 5Q0035726E (40€~). USB will also need a change in the code. My problem was that I have Canton in my car. That means the Canton amplifier also needed to be replaced for a MIB2 one. I did not know that and bought the parts listed above plus a screen (5E0919605M). Went to a shop to get component protection removed and they could not get the speakers to work. So I gave up and bought a new glovebox unit which originally was in my car. Just yesterday I got it to work since it did not cross my mind that it needs coding to work with a Canton amplifier. This thread (https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/462065-head-unit-upgrade/) is very helpful in this topic. Please ask any questions that you have so you don’t make the same mistakes that I did

Open circuit on all speakers
Hello everyone About 2 months ago my MIB1 MMI (5Q0035840A) kicked the bucket and I decided to upgrade it to a MIB2 Amundsen. I bought the 5Q0035874A Amundsen MIB2 and the 5E0919606 8 inch Columbus screen, got the component protection removed and there was no sound. Not knowing I had to also swap out the Canton amplifier for a MIB2 one, I gave up on it and bought a working original MMI. The problem now is that even with the original MMI there is still no sound after component protection removal. OBD scan gave me the following fault codes: Left front bass speaker - Fault code B105F13 Right rear bass speaker - Fault code B106713 Right rear treble speaker - Fault code B106813 Left rear treble speaker - Fault code B106613 Left front treble speaker - Fault code B106113 Left rear bass speaker - Fault code B106513 Right front treble speaker - Fault code B106413 Right front bass speaker Fault code B106213 Now I'm debating on whether I should stick with the original MMI or get a MIB2 amplifier in hopes that after component protection removal the speakers will start working again.
