Hi bud, got this all working, not through bimmercode but once you go into Bluetooth select options beside the I drive controller and the settings are in there.

Another adapter that works flawlessly with Bimmercode, at lest on IOS and an Iphone 6 on latest firmware is this. Make sure you get the black one and WiFi version (Vgate ICar2) and don't be tempted to get Icar 3 or pro or anything else. I never had a disconnect or trouble connecting with this one.

I have that and it will not work with my Android pad Bimmercode. I had to go to a Veepeak, this one:

Can someone help bimmercode for bigger size resolution CIC headunit

Hi, I'm new to this form. about half an hour a go i did learn alot about bimmercode and coded my car aswell.
I have an android screen which is 10.25" it works perfect but the BMW idrive system has small screen it doesn't look good. can someone help me with what code I need to increase the screen resolution size (display size).
i have a bmw f30 320d auto 2014 and the head unit is CIC (on bimmercode it display hu_cic) it's got built in satnav.

The code i found is for NBT unit

Screen Swap then code code:

HU_NBT > 3000 HMI > DISPLAY_SIZE_RESOLUTION = 8.8_1280x480
HU_NBT > 3001 EXBOX > DISPLAY_VARIANTE = breites_display

But for my unit I don"t have the display size resolution.

can anyone help me with the code how to make the screen size bigger for CIC head unit

Thank you

hey guys, had a good read through this thread and managed to code what i wanted with the great advice on here, and usinf OBD adapter and bimmercode.

one thing im struggling with, and im not sure its possible on my car, is to be able to start the car without having to nsert the key fob into the dash..

can anyone point me in the right direction on bimmercode app, or if its even possible on my car ?

i have always been able to remove the key from the dash once i start and stop the car once, but never start without putting the fob in once to start with...

sorry if this has been asked before- can you code back to default on Bimmercode the individual modules or do I have to connect my laptop and use Esys?

I hope this works the Vgate ICar2 one for my Iphone 7+ or Ipad Pro Gen 1. I tried using the Enet Cable + Apple Ethernet w/USB + Apple USB Camera to Lighting adaptor. I got an error message from BimmerCode below.

I had the right connections, turned my phone on Airplane mode, Do Not Disturb settings and Wi-Fi turned off. Seatbelt on, Accessory mode on as well.

Holy crap, i think i am so stupid, i didn't know u have to purchase the full version for like $32 ish, i was watching a current vid of Jon at his YT channel: ThicF30 coding his new M2 F87...

Do you have an F30? If so update your garage, if not you're in the wrong forum. F30 never require putting the fob in the dash. For that matter there's no place in the dash to put it.

Hi - long time Bimmercode user, new car for me. I have an '18 F34, and Active Sound Design isn't listed as a module. Is this because the F34 doesn't have ASD, or do I need to look elsewhere?

If you don't have it listed in your decoded VIN you probably don't have it. I don't have it. If I did I'd be coding it off.

And thats it.

This didn't work on my 2013 320i. In fact the Modus_FA_SLV option did not show up when connected to my car (it does in Demo Mode). I tried setting it to 0x03 in Custom Value but that didn't work.
Could there be a setting elsewhere that needs to be set correctly to allow this to be changed ?

Thanks.

Can anyone confirm if Vgate Icar2 still actually works with the latest version in IOS?

I ask because in Indonesia we only have the Vgate ic2 available, however bimmercode website does NOT recommend Vgate anymore.

I want to make sure before purchasing.

Is it the Vgate Icar Pro? Do you use the bluetooth or wifi version on IOS?

it's the icar pro 4.0 and I use it with bluetooth on iOS for bimmercode and bimmerlink. I also use it on bluetooth for android with my silverado for regular obd2 scans.

does anyone know if there is an option to get the windows fully 100% down in comfort open?
i had a look through all the various menu options but couldn't find it.

so at the moment when i double-tap the unlock button on the key fob, the window rolls down about ...i dunno...60% of the way.

thanks

Yes it does work. I bought my car 2 weeks ago and have coded many things. Most importantly auto start/stop always off and I enabled the sport transmission. Everything else I did is cool, but these really enhanced my driving experience. I used the android version.

I used vgate icar pro 4.0. Wifi off. Airplane mode on. Music bluetooth adapter unplugged. It came with this disclaimer, that I haven't seen posted anywhere yet.
