Found the same when I explored this yesterday in my '19 S5 with VCDS. There was no "smartphone configuration" in 75 nor in 5F. I don't recall offhand the others that were missing but definitely didn't see the same stuff you listed. I assume this is a hardware difference between MIB2 and MIB3 that just won't make it possible on the '19.

yes suspect there will be differences .
If you are able to enable 5Ghz in module 75,
you could try the following values in Module : 5F. (Information Control Unit)

Adaptation

Vehicle Configuration

MirrorLink = On
WiFi_Client_HMI = On
Apple_DIO_Wireless = On
wlan_5ghz_switch = Activated
Apple_DIO = On

I was able to make all the connections you listed above on a 2019 S5 with OBD11 Pro and iPhone X. I cannot seem to get wireless Carplay to work, are there any further steps necessary? Thanks for any help!

Same, except using VCDS. I also unpaired my phone from Bluetooth and Carplay prior to changing the above. And afterwards, I reset the MMI. But, there was no change in the name of my Wifi network (apparently it would've been appended with "_5ghz"). I found the OBD Eleven CarPlay Thread over on the OBD Eleven forums that the above steps were copied/pasted. Note that everyone posting there seems to reference the MIB3 (touchscreen) MMI found on the 2020 USA cars and 2019 non-USA cars. Just different hardware, maybe a dead end for us with MIB2.....

I, for one, will take the “trade-off” of no touch screen & a volume control for no (factory) wireless CarPlay.

After playing around with this for about 3 hours (car battery on trickle charger) and having done everything you did and changed the S5's wifi password and then connected to the my iPhone X, I am able to connect to the cars wifi easily, but no Carplay. I'm gonna let it sit for a few hours and see if it Carplay appears in the MMI. Sometimes it can take a few minutes to a few hours for changes to occur. After that I am finished and will connect via the cable (that is not such a big deal anyway). I want to keep my hair (I almost pulled it out this morning)...I know when I am beaten and Wireless Carplay can go F#@#% itself right in the lightning connector!!

Indeed John, this is the only way to stay sane and keep one's hair intact!

Time for my shameless plug: get one of these!

Thorpey

do you see a separate 5ghz network ? (There is adaptation to have it named the same or different )

it’s difficult without seeing it. If you want to backup module 5f and 75 I’d be happy to take a look.
It maybe that it’s not possible but worth a go I suppose.

No 5G label on my Car's Wifi. I'll double check it and make sure, do you have 5G in your car?
