Well, the aul lad just a bmw f10 it has an android 10" screen in it, when using the normal idrive part of the radio the split screen will only show current speed and how many litres of fuel is in the tank, ive gone into the options menus and there is no option to turn on or off the splitscreen and if i click over to the right it doesn't show up the split screen options menu anyone else install and android radio and have this problem or know how to fix it? 

Hi Charlie

Is it OEM? or is it a an aftermarket unit if it is after market it may have issues communicating with the cars OBC which will limit functions without manufacturer information it is difficult to assess

The screen is aftermarket android i dont know what make it is, it still has the full functionality of the oem idrive system though, its only the split screen i dont have options for, which is annoying having half the screen taken up to tell me how much fuel is in the tank, it goes full screen when on the android part of the radio but split screen for oem part ie radio sat nav and usb

Tough one to give any advice on as neither you or us know what we are dealing with. If I recall split screen function used to be controlled through the navigation program I still think the after market unit is blocking some OBC functions. May be consider going back to OEM or change to another Aftermarket unit but a recognized one like Dynavin
