I am a new owner of F30, hello...

so i researched around about the unlock hidden features, and I found at least 3 software

carly
bimmercode
bimmertech

carly and bimmercode only requires you to buy the cable/adapter

i want to know what is the best software to do this job (unlock hidden feature)

thanks.

The best software to unlock hidden features is still E-Sys.
But for E-Sys you have to read much instructions.
If you get along with e-sys, you can do the most things and also rescue them again if something has gone wrong.

Carly i would not recommend anymore because the problems are increasing.
Bimmercode is the best solution when you want to use an App.
Bimmertech i don't know.

Bimmercode. It does 90% of what can be done, and is very user friendly.

esys best software to use - may seem a little overwhelming at first but once you get the hang of it, you'll never consider anything else for coding.

Thank you for your recommendation. What would be the best software in term of price and usability combination?

I checked out esys (maybe wrong website esysx dot com or scam?) and it turned out it cost few hundred $ or € while bimmercode is only $20 for the dongle?

I don’t mind using laptop and in fact i prefer laptop vs phone to update. I read with esys you need a laptop with windows 7 only and must be a 32 bit windows?

Where to download esys software?

Correct me if i am wrong?

pm sent - don't need to pay for esys & works with w10 x64 just fine.

Also if you are intimidated by eSYS, bmwai is far more guided/user friendly and just as powerful (it is an older eSYS with a GUI overlay) I only break out eSYS for modules bmwai can’t read (usually rem iirc)
