Hey Sima
I'm looking to unlock AA on my 2017 Cayenne S. There are so many different threads and updates I'm getting a little dizzy.
What are the 3 ways to unlock the PCM?
And how is your method different from the M.I.B. Solutions method?

What are the 3 different ways? And after reading about this on so many different threads and forums, my head is spinning. What's different about your Method Sima and the M.I.B. update?

As you can see yes.
There are 3 ways that the PCM can be unlocked.
i will write more in detail as I am back home,because I am currently out of country,and WiFi here is very bad.

I would suggest that if you want to engage Sima that you send him a PM directly.

I did, just WhatsApp'ed him before posting this. But wanted to ask it in a public forum too since I'm sure lots of people here are like me and want to know Unless he doesn't want to say... He did say he was going to reply with the 3 options but never got around to it.

Hi guys, I have successfully used the MIB SD card method for Android Auto activation which worked fine except the sound quality is noticeably inferior compared to the radio tuner / Bluetooth streaming. I presume the radio tuner / Bluetooth streaming is using my Bose EQ settings and Android Auto doesn't / isn't able to? Has anyone experienced this and is there a fix? I'm running the European software version for PCM if it makes a difference. Thanks!

I just finished the install with help from 718socal. A couple of notes. I think the requirement for a minimum 8GB SD card is correct. My 4GB card worked for the install (barely after unpacking the zip file), but the card shows totally full after the backup making me think that I may not have backed up all of the files. Is there a way to check? When I ran the GEM menu, it indicated everything in the backup was "OK", but maybe something still didn't get completed and doesn't show up on the check. Also, I learned that to access GEM menu after the initial install you need ignition on, SD card loaded in slot 1, press physical CAR button, wait a small time holding CAR button and then press physical TUNER button. I was pressing them simultaneously and trying pressing CAR, releasing it and pressing TUNER. Thanks to 718socal for this.

I've got a 2017 991.2 and I'm pretty excited to try this out as well, but I can't seem to find the files anywhere. Can someone share the link for the files that I need to get on to an SD card?
When I go to mibsolution.one I get an error.

I think I'll have to be patient, the website seems to be going up and down and missing a few files.
The folder that 781socal posted (I copied the photo below) a while back seems to be empty as of last night. Today the website has a database error.
