Shawn, looks like I am on the right path.

Existing Code 853 is English, I should replace it with 866 and give it a try again tonight.

FA code are interesting.... They even code "THROUGH-LOADING SYSTEM"?

Yes, you are.

Thanks to all your help, you are truly the master!!!

Now here are more stupid questions for you.

I noticed in the coding database there is an option described as "Sport + Modu acma" for ICM 3000. Does that mean I can turn it on so I can have Eco/Comfort/Sport and Sport + on my F25? Or was it for something else?

HU_NBT has option High_Bean_Assistant on and off. If I never purchase that option, can coding make this happen or it requires extra hardware/accessories?

I don't know if you can enable Sport+ or not on your F25.

You cannot enable HBA without hardware, either FLA or KAFAS Camera, and SZL Stalk Switch.

Correct me if I am wrong. A conflict code as 866 should be replacing another FA code? Is there a reference that I can look up to find out what FA code means?

I understand replacing 6NH with 6NS will give me the enhanced BT and Office.
So to follow this theory, I should be replacing 866 with my existing Language code? How do I know which one is a "language code"?

Is this reference valid on F25?

Why don't you decode the vin and find out the language code from that. I think english is 853.

Shawn,

FA replace 853 with 866 VO code HU_NBT no more error message.
However, all the iDrive display are gone. i tried getting into Setting and change language but I couldnt select anything in Language.

FDL code HU_NBT with language to Chinese_Trad/Sim and change Language_Master to Chinese_trad but still no luck.

I FA it back to 853 for now. I remember seeing someone else having similar problem, but I am not sure how to fix or what other settings need to be updated....

It looks like this from BimmerFest

I think NBT needs to be flashed with 866 to get firmware with Chinese character support.

So I am out of luck?

Only if you decide not to flash it.

Exactly. I have posted many times on how to flash with E-Sys.

haha, most of the google result with post you made. mind giving me a little shortcut?

You will need to put the car on a commercial grade charger, good for 50 amps minimum, as you cannot run the motor while flashing.

Here are the basic steps:

Go to Comfort Mode => TAL-Calculating
- Read and Save FA
- Activate FA
- Read and Save SVT Actual as SVT_ist
- Create an SVT Target
Under KIS/SVT Target Calculation Strategy, select Complete Flash
Select I-Step (shipm.) to match your original I-Level as read and shown in VCM I-Step (Shipment)
I-Step (target.) will be unselectable as it is fixed based on current PSdZData I-Level
Do a KIS/SVT Target Calculation and Save as SVT_soll
- Do a TAL Calculation and Save as SVT_tal

Go to Expert Mode => TAL-Processing
Load TAL (SVT_tal)
Load SVT Target (SVT_soll)
Select "Read FA" button.
Check radio button for "read VIN out of FA"
On ECU Tab, uncheck let top box in column "All" (All checked boxes should toggle to unchecked)
On ID Base Row for Kombi, make check boxes in blFlash, swDeploy, cdDeploy, and ibaDeploy columns.
Press Check software availability
Press Start and it will proceed with processing TAL to flash Kombi with new firmware.

thanks Shawn. i really appreciate your help.
However, i just read some of the bimmerfest coding forum and realized i really need a high quality cable rather than the cheap eBay cable I've got because of the length of the flash....

I dont want to risk my new car for my father-in-law...... lol.
there are sure a lot of interesting coding for NBT in bimmerFest. I will try to play around with WiFi Hot Spot next and see if I have any luck...

I think maybe you read about Flashing CIC in E-Series car, which you need ICOM Interface. Flashing CIC or NBT in F-Series car using ENET interface is about 40 minutes, and is not a problem.

Hi guys! I have a problem trying to connect to my 2012 X3. After I fallowed all the instruction from the attached pdf I can't select "Connection via VIN" option. Do you have any idea what I did wrong? I tryed under XP Sp3 and win7 x64 ultimate with the same result. I guess the ENET cable it's ok if I get the correct IP like in the attached image. Thank you for your time

Is Motor Running and Firewall / AntiVirus programs disabled?

[CostinLogin]

At the first attempt I forgot about the Firewall / AntiVirus programs. Next day I tryed with the engine running and a fresh Windows XP without AntiVirus and Firewall stoped. I had the same result. Do I need aditional software beside E-Sys and PSdZData? BTW first attempt was made with PSdZData Lite and the XP atempt I use PSdZData Full.
I'm going to try tomorrow with a fresh Win7 Ultimate x32 maybe I get lucky.

Thank you shawnsheridan for all the work on this forum.

There is nothing else needed, and PSdZData Lite vs. Full makes no difference.

What is the latest version of PSdZData ? I Have 54.2 Is there a newer one ? Could that be the cause of my problem ?

55.4 is latest. PSdZData version should have no affect on Connection though.
