Sure can.

I purchased the Bimmercode recommended enet cable and ethernet lightning adapter.

Ethernet to Lightning Adapter

So I got this exact setup and for some reason it doesn't always work. It seems like I have to change the cable source to kiwi and then go back to enet cable to make it work.

It worked for me a few times and now it's intermittently works. So ordered replacements of both and it still doesn't work all the time. So I ended up buying the OBDLink MX+. Which works every time I use it.

Does Bimmercode work with software 7/2020.xx? I don't mind doing the recoding but just want to know if the latest idrive software is supported yet?

If not, I may wait before downloading the upcoming OTA as I don't want to lose the ability to recode some of the features.

achk ,

After my car got updated at dealer with version 07/2020.45, I used Bimmercode to code back in all of my custom coding without a problem-- BUT please bear in mind that Bimmercode can't code SAS2 module yet

I’m also struggling with the enet cable and Ethernet to lightening connector. In the instructions for BimmerCode it says turn the ignition on and then press the start 3 times rapidly which brings up the message about diagnostics mode but the app won’t connect - any tips?

Turn on diagnostics mode in the car. On your iPhone, disable WiFi, Bluetooth and turn on airplane mode. Connect the your iPhone to the car with the enet cable. Then go into your iPhone settings and tap Ethernet. Wait until it automatically generates the IP addresses and then launch BimmerCode. Works every time , for me at least. Good luck!

OK I tried this but still no joy. Do I need to only plug the cable in after turning off WiFi etc? I can get the Ethernet settings to work but I get a full internet IP of the form: 169.254.253.xxx with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 I was expecting a local address e.g. 192.168.x.xxx

Any thoughts

Turn off all of your wifi/blutooth, then go into your car, hit the button 3 times, check your ethernet settings and once you have an IP then load in the app - that should work for you. Just be patient when you do it.

I managed to get it working, in settings on iOS you have to find BimmerCode and set it to allow connection to the local network.

Little help please. I just did the OTA update to 7/2020.54 and set about recoding my previous coding mods.

I'm using an iOS device (tried iPad and iPhone 11pro) with a modBMW Enet WIFI adapter.

While trying to access the BDC module, it comes back with an error. Is this a known issue or am I missing something?

I've had no problem accessing the other modules and I certainly have coded things in BDC before.

I even tried deleting and re-installing the BimmerCode app.

The things I want to code in BDC are starting in adaptive, reduce the passenger side mirror dipping angle when reversing, rear DRL.

thanks in advance!

You will need beta version to access BDC on 07/2020 software.

So it doesn't need the beta to get BDC anymore?
My OBDlink MX+ is coming today so i'd like to know if the beta is necessary.
The new version you are talking about is the beta or this one?

Not necessary. The updated app will work with the BMW software 7/2020.54 (OTA update that has been pushed out recently). I was able to access BDC module whereas I couldn't before the bimmercode app was updated. There's no need to request and download the beta version.

Hi, I just registered, searched the forum but couldn't find anythnig related.

Can I code my car to auto lock when I walk away from it? It seems like the car has all the hardware and software to perform this task.

Is it possible?

It is a OEM feature. At least the 330i MSport here in brazil, has. No coding needed for this.
