That's what I was afraid of with the Avin system. I looked at the Bimmer-Tech solution and it looks IDENTICAL to the unit I purchased, except my unit supports wireless AA and Carplay. I didn't think that it was worth the extra cost (I paid around $300 on eBay, though it can be found for less).
No weirdness, and, upon further testing, no more stutters with the new firmware.

Although, if you're not picky, you may not really notice. It is great to save a few bucks when you can. I have decided to replace my Avin with an OEM display and one of those MMI interfaces from Bimmer-Tech, CodeMyBimmer or similar. The non-android based interfaces seem more solid. That's just my opinion.
