Looks great! I need to do this. What did you use to code it? I currently code with Carly but doesn't have the option. I assume I will need a new coding software.

What are you talking about? CarPlay comes from the phone, not the head unit. There's nothing to code.

Your correct. But user ct335i was able to code his head unit to display Carplay in full screen. Currently BMW limits it to a little more than half the screen due to split screen. You can uncheck split screen but Carplay still looks crammed on iOS 13.

That is correct. Coding is required on F30 if you need a full screen in CarPlay mode.

@samgraveno. There are few vendors that do it but I got it below guy on ebay. Depending on what version of I-drive firmware. I know you can't code with BimmerCode and I believe same applies to Carly.

You need one of the below links.

https://www.ebay.ca/itm/254112988554?ul_noapp=true

Model higher than P version.

What version of NBTevo did you have? The one add makes it sound like the USB version only works if you have N or O? Did your 2017 come with that installed or did you have to have it upgraded at the dealer?

The carplay activation will it stick when my car software is upgraded to the later date? Or I just plug the USB in again for re-activation?

I have the version P, so for coding I needed RJ45 Ethernet cable vs if you have old version, I believe USB will work. Reach out to seller and he will guide the right software for your car.

CarPlay was ordered with car.

Depending on the update.. if dealer update wipes the coding .. I'm told you can reprogram it back with USB or Ethernet cable. Seller will provide you the software.

I just got my coded few weeks back.

How did your car ship with P. I have a 2017 340 ordered with CP as well, and I have K.

Not sure..but guessing when the car was manufactured. When did you take delivery of car? I believe 2017 models came out in Q4 2016.
I got delivery on my car in July 2017 and believe manufacture date was May (have to confirm).

Interesting… My production date was May 2017 as well, and I took delivery of September. Mine was built in South Africa, so that might have something to do with that

Not sure I understand what you mean with that one. Do later versions of the firmwares make it harder to do coding?

Not sure if it's harder.. but apparently version > P requires RJ5 Ethernet cable and cost is more on seller site. Older version can be coded with USB and half the cost. Take a look at links I shared above.

Oh, I thought you meant coding in general and was confused, because you cannot code CarPlay full screen with version K that I have (hence your comment "cheaper to code K" is not really applicable).

You have to have at least version N to be able to code CarPlay fullscreen.

I understand now -- I have to get the dealer to flash the ECU up to at least N version to do fullscreen.

Had an oil change due and asked them to upgrade the software for NBT2 due to "CarPlay keeps disconnecting randomly" and the guy said "Yeah, they know about it, but the software is coming out soon, so you should wait."

"Ok"...

"Wait, looks like your car has a service note from the DCM and they need to flash it which means the whole car"

"Cool!"

Got the car back and they upgraded NBT to Q. Did the fullscreen carplay update and works great!

Thanks again

Coded full screen carplay on mine, and running the iOS 13 beta. Looks absolutely amazing. I love the full screen in general but the iOS 13 split view (map on left with audio/controls on right) works great. Also love that it no longer quits out of whatever carplay app you have if someone uses your phone. I frequently have someone in the passenger seat using my phone, no longer does the map quit if they exit the map app on my phone!
