I have not had any reply about it from the "technical department" either since the initial reply the other day where I explained the issue and sent a picture from ISTA of the fault codes created. |

Anyway, it sounds like the error code will happen across all headunits when the mmi is turned on. |

When bringing up Google Assistant in Android Auto, (either via the steering wheel button, the mic icon, or long pressing the ID knob), there is an unusually long delay of about 2-3 seconds from the time I hear the beep to when the assistant actually hears the command.
Is everyone experiencing this? |

Once you do that a new setting will appear enabling wireless projection. All that you need to do then is connect to the mmi's wifi and bluetooth. A popup should then appear on your Idrive screen allowing you to launch AA wirelessly. |

Haven't pulled the trigger yet on buying the Andream (besides Andream US supplier won't be shipping during "Spring Festival of 2020" until 2/3). Have 2 questions:
1) Can someone confirm if resetting any of the service indicator lights will work with the Andream connected. I'm aware coding (ie Bimmercode) won't work. 2) Can you still hear the OEM Radio (XM, FM, AM, etc.) or Multimedia while using AA or screen mirrorring? |

The sound from the Andream is in the Aux source. You can either listen to the Aux input (Andream) or any of the BMW sources e.g.FM radio, but not both at the same time. In the same way you can't listen to FM & USB at the same time now. You can easily switch between sources using the Mode button on the Steering wheel and the screen can be on idrive or CarPlay/AA. I usually listen to OEM Radio + CarPlay maps on the screen but don't get any spoken directions or notifications from CarPlay.

I have some questions about how the unit is supposed to operate. I got it about a week ago and it came with the v2.0.2.6.gpe.b software. The mmi always loads and shows on the screen even when I turn the car off on the Idrive screen. Is this normal, can it be changed to remember what was showing when the car was turned off?
Others have said to use bmw Bluetooth instead of CarPlay, but CarPlay always takes the call if the mmi is showing on the screen. The only way I can get bmw Bluetooth to work is by accepting the CarPlay call and manually changing back to bmw Bluetooth on my phone or switch to Idrive before answering. This YouTube video mentions an iPhone setting at 4:25 but it doesn’t work for me. How do I prioritize bmw Bluetooth or turn off CarPlay calling? Last issue is that I don’t get any sound when using the phone through CarPlay. The mic works because the other person can hear me but I can’t hear them. When I manually switch to bmw Bluetooth using my phone routing options on the lock screen the call works fine. Is this a setting or a faulty unit? |
