Drove 220 miles today. Had a notification that a map update had been downloaded and installed, but the software update still refuses to activate. It’s utterly pants.

What's this compared with the OTA update?

It's the full version number of the istep.

Your remote update version number is a subset of this.
They take the year, month and last 2 digits to get what you see in your nav

How did you code it? Remove 8TR from FA and VO Code, or FDL coding?

What i-step were you on prior to the OTA upgrade?

I did FDL coding via Esys. Previous version was 03/2020.

Ok that's a little surprising then. The only way it would have persisted is if you had
1) removed the block code from your FA if applicable (e.g. 8TR), or
2) the i-step upgrade had not coded HU, SAS and BDC or
3) the coding rules for i-step 07/2020 changed for your model.

As 1 + 2 aren't true, then it must be 3.

I've checked the coding for LCA/SWA on the G20 and it's changed from False/Disabled on i-step 11/2019 and presumably 03/2020, to enabled if certain criteria are met on 07/2020.

Thing is, unless I'm going code blind, one of the criteria looks to be a build date of 07/2020 which I doubt yours is? It's possible BMW messed up the logic.

Bimmercode aside, all coding (FDL and VO) is done with esys. It's just that you need a launcher like esysx or LP to start it first due to dependency on certificate and code mappings for FDL coding.

Looks like I jumped the gun here. I checked the coding after the upgrade to 07/2020.54 and it was all in place. However, today was the first time I’d been on a dual carriageway and it’s not working!

Haven’t had chance to look into this, but wondering if the latest code disables it no matter what?

I understand you need that if you want to use Alexa in the car - this is the other half of an upgrade to the myBMW app.

I don't know of any additional features.

I had mine updated at BMW while it was in for other work.

They did however try all sorts of tactics to not do it.

Now my Apple Car Play works without cutting out so it was well worth pushing them to do it.
