I use a MacBook Pro with 10.8 and VMware Fusion and Windows 7 x86. Works like a charm. Super reliable, never had a crash or an issue connecting to my car.

Tip: disable 3D acceleration in VMware as E-Sys seems to use a lot of Java and is not compatible with the acceleration.

I looked for a topic where introduce me but didn't find anything.
I have some problem with my car:
I bought it in Germany and it's fully specced with all the necessary for connectivity: nav prof,internet,bmw online, bmw live,apps etc...
The problem is I can't connect to bmw online via bluetooth connection of my phone, neither I can access to emails and text messages from it.
I can just look at my contacts but nothing more and so I cant access internet via my phone neither via car's connection.
I've read that maybe there's something to code to make internet or bmw live or bmw online (didn't understood well ) works on my car.
Can someone help me?
Thanks very much!

Plus would someone pm me the link to download E-sys and all the data necessary to code?

WIthout Combox, you could consider upgrading to HU-NBT since the HU_CIC & COMBOX is integrated into one now

That was last night. This morning started my car and went to BMW Live. Now I got a wizard for selecting my country and so on. But after setting up - I now get a different error message. Whats up there? Do I still need to change VIN? The wizard did not came up last night.

Exact same situation happened to me last night (error messages) and today (error message saying something along the lines of Internal Error).

Hoping that it washes itself out in the next few days.

Did it work previously in your car? Or did you start coding it as well?

No I only coded 614/615 and the Bmw Live options last night.
Today the browser was working, but BMW Live let me go through the setup - even register my email - but then gave me the error.

Changing from 6NH to 6NK is quite simple. Edit your FA (VO) to replace 6NH with 6NK. Load and activate modified FA, and VO code Head Unit and Combox if you have one.

Hi Shawn,

I am a new member and a new car owner :-) - my email id is rajesh10800@yahoo.com. It will be great if you could send me instructions on how to cose 6NH to 6NK. My car has 6NH with Professional Navigation. If you want I can share the VIN code too. Actually I want to activate many things which the local BMW delaership says is not possible. For eg, DVD Video in Motion, Seta Belt sound off, Album Art, 6NK, BMW apps (without video), Internet.

Also which software version should I download, 3.18.4 with PSDZ 48.1 or 3.22.5 with 48.3. I have orderred the Enet Cable from Ebay too.

Your guidance will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Rajesh

hi raj10800, this topic can be back trace from the front... For not troubling our seniors, i will answer for them that you need 3.18 and 48.1 will do.

For the connection wise, please refer to front thread. hope my explanation helps.

P.S. Think twice before you convert 6NH to 6NK, may risk failure cic update from dealer.

Your dealer reprogram update problem solved?

[code0482]

some help on this would be much appreciated.
I have spent about 3 hours searching this forum and reading posts and can't resolve this issue.

I currently work with E-Sys v3.18.4 in combination with the v46.3 datafiles.
I do a ZGW search and it finds my Vin number.

when I click on connect in E-Sys there is nothing listed under target.....Therefore when i click on connection via VIN, the connect is grayed out and can't be pressed.

under connection via VIN my Vin does show up.

i'm guessing that I have some files in the wrong place but not sure.
any help on this would be appreciated..

Thank you! Yesterday I spent all the night to find those files.
But I'm not sure if it works even on an F20/F21. Does it?
Can I activate internet connection trough my phone's bluetooth tethering?

Attached to this post are four .torrent files representing the four sets of files I was given access to. You should download the files and remove the .pdf extension, then use them with a good BitTorrent client, either uTorrent or qBitTorrent.

I STRONGLY recommend that you use these torrents and DO NOT rely on the http download links you may get from other members. First, it's clumsy to download all the files individually and second I discovered that the http transfers would sometimes not transfer the whole file. It took days to get all the files downloaded correctly. (I have tested the .rars and .exes to ensure they are OK.)

BitTorrent solves both these problems and will reduce the amount of noise in this thread from "please send me links" and "pm sent" replies. Bottom line: if you are technical enough to code your BMW, you should be able to download these files, rename them and input them into a BitTorrent client.

One more point: as a courtesy to others, PLEASE SEED THESE FILES for the duration. I will seed these long enough for them to get some traction, but if it turns out I am alone supplying bandwidth, I will stop seeding them. With enough long-term seeders, downloading these files should be both fast and reliable.

ah so these r zipped files and we dont need torrent i guess?

What happened with the 6NH to 6NK VO change when you brought the car in for a CIC update from the dealer?

This basically explains why it is not working in a virtual windows xp/7 as I do not receive an IP address on a normal network adapter.

Now I am wondering if anybody knows which IP address, subnetmask has to be configured manually to make a connection if dhcp is not working ?

Grtz,

If you are running E-Sys in a Virtual Machine (VM), make sure you set the VM NIC to bridging mode, not NAT.

[RayF31]

Thnx

I know it is required to bridge and use this setup. Virtual or not but I do not receive an ip address. My MacBook detects the cable but I don't get an IP address assigned. So this could mean dhcp is broken somehow. So I am wondering to configure this static. I think the ip setup will be the same for each car just as brand new router has a default ip configuration.

Grtz,

You have enough Posts now, so I have PM'd you what you need.

I also already explained exactly what you need to do to change from 6NH to 6NK here:

http://www.f30post.com/forums/showpo...postcount=2627

Go to Post 1 here, and read the 3 Getting Started Guides, and FDL Coding and VO Modification will make more sense to you:

http://www.f30post.com/forums/showpo...71&postcount=1

After your VO is modified and activated, to VO code your Head Unit and Combox if you have one, simply highlight the ECU in your SVT, right click on it, and select CODE.

Fair warning. Whatever you do, don't ever mistakenly click on the Code Defaults button, or you will regret it.

You are looking for an IP Address on your LAN Adapter itself, or using the ZGW_Search Utility?

Regardless, the car does not have a DHCP server; so it does not assign an IP Address to the computer. Both the computer and the car will go into DHCP fallback mode, each assigning themselves a random Class-B IP Address so that they can talk to each other. This can take up to 60 seconds, so you have to wait until the PC has an IP address before you try to connect.

The utility only shows a blank screen. It does this after the lan adapter is ready and has assigned itself an 169.254.y.z class B address

Ok, thnx for clearing up this one. I read on some other forums some posts about static assigment of a 192.168.68.z ip address and connecting to 192.168.68.1 but it wasn't not this tool or F series. Just thought this could also be a work around for my case

Going to set it up once more from scratch. Back to square one !

Oh and before I forget ...

Thnx U All for confirming setup
