Part of my problem might also be that my phone holder sits over the right side centre vent, so I hate having to touch the right third of the screen!

Do you rarely use the features in that corner of the screen?

How do you update to the latest iDrive firmware?

EasyBimmerCoding · 04-01-2021, 01:31 PM

You can do it yourself using Esys.

Or we can do it for you remotely!

Drop me your VIN to PM, I'll check which software do you have. Maybe you don't need firmware upgrade.

Just had my vehicle updated with NBTevo X via dealer. And Kubax86 helped me reinstall Carplay again and got full screen now. Props for great service!

There's nothing in the corner while in CarPlay mode that i would need to reach.

Hello,

Just purchased a 2019 X3 M40i and would like to get the full screen capability for CarPlay (currently use Apple). I have a K+DCAN USB cable that I used on my e39 M5 several years ago and not sure if it would work on the X3 as well for this patch?

Thank you for your help!

Hi kubax86,

I’m interested in CarPlay Full Screen mode.

Is it possible if I currently have NBTEvo_H?

Hi,
it is not.
You will need Firmware Upgrade

I just got my 2018 X3 M40i yesterday, ready for CarPlay full screen!

Does this process also update the firmware to the latest as part of the process?

Sometimes it is not required. Depends on your current firmware.
I just sent you a PM.

How did you get the dealer to upgrade you to the latest version? They always bitch about only doing it when you're having problems.

mclark2112 · 05-05-2021, 07:42 PM

Thank Kubax, the install went flawlessly.
