Thanks marko and everyone contributed to this thread ... I could successfully upgrade to 8.8 .... One thing I was missing earlier was that the display from my head unit was going through Bimmertech mmi HD unit to 8.8 and there is one toggle switch I should put to off for 8.8 to work.

Only problem I see now is the display brightness... Its dim and have blue tint ... My 6.5 display was so sharp bright and crisp ... Any reasons for this?
