Full Screen CarPlay

Full screen AppleCarPlay patch I purchased from he NET worked perfectly.

https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/BMW-FSC-...53.m2749.l2649

Cheapest on the net @ $50 USD.

The seller does all the checking for you so you don't make any mistakes.

My OCD is going nuts over the amount of missed calls/voicemails and unread text messages you have displayed..

I got used to having it split screen. What happens when you take it in for a service and they update the software?

Was it done via USB or did they connect to your car via enet cable?

Bought it on ebay - seller then sends you instructions and .bin file.

Copy file to usb and then plug it into a usb port.

Took about 5 minutes.


"Thank for you purchasing BMW FSC Code Full set & Apple Carplay Fullscreen & Android Screen mirroring & VIM Activation via USB for NBT EVO.


UPDXXXXX.bin ( with numbers ) - enable

UPD00000.bin - disable before going to workshop


Install instructions:

1. Copy provided UPD BIN UPDXXXXX.bin file onto an available blank USB flash memory stick with FAT32 file system.

2. Turn ignition on or start engine of your car and insert the USB flash drive into the USB port in glove box/center console.

3. Wait at least 30 seconds and then remove the USB flash drive.

4. Reboot iDrive system by pressing and holding the volume button.

5. Once the NBT EVO has restarted, it will restart itself after 60-90 seconds, so just wait.
6. Wait until the NBT EVO has restarted and once again reboot iDrive system by pressing and holding the volume button.

7. Enjoy Apple Carplay Fullscreen & Android Screen mirroring & VIM."

I already bought a Carplay unlock 5 months ago... which stopped working after the software in car was updated during a recent service.
I’m led to believe USB key installs no longer work.

Have you had your car serviced in recent times?

Fair enough... was trying to workout if the mob you used actually had a solution on the latest car software. I sent them a message.

UPDATE:
They referred me to their other listing for coding the new software.

So they had to connect and manually code your car?
From their eBay description they made it sound like a self coding program that you ran yourself.

Depending on the version level it could be a usb install or remote coding, mine needed the remote luckily I already had the cable from my F30 years ago

So the key will work multiple times on your OWN vehicle? So if it does flash back, I can just reuse the file again? This isnt something Bimmercode can do?

Remember to remove the patch before going to the dealer or your iDrive will be no more!

Maybe they include a "stock" file as well so that you can revert it back to stock
