Hi, 

Yes I found a solution for it but it cost time and maybe a CD400 control panel. I contact seller from Aliexpress aswell and he send me later a CD500 wirebox and if you could compare it whit a CD400 wireunit+CANBUS there the difference is only 2 wires that goes from radio unit to the controlpanel. If you have the CD500 wires+CANBUS whit a CD500 control panel and the android radio the panel will power up and the buttons will function but not all the buttons functioning correctly because of the firmware of the CANBUS what is normally compatible whit a CD400 control unit. So I bought a used CD400 controlpanel from Ebay for 45 EUR and replaced my CD500 controlpanel for full funtionality. So yes you can make it work because now you don't need to find out what to do :-). 

this is the unit and store info were I got it from:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Android-...0.0.14ueCZ

if you need more info let me know.

Kind Regards
Amir
