My one month old 330i comes with 07.2019.38. Dealer said there are no updates. Do I call BS on that?

The difference is in Sport/XtraBoost mode.

The instrument cluster looked like this before update, 1st image.

And the instrument cluster after update looks like this, 2nd image.


How is yours?
Are you sure the first one is in sport mode and not something else (XtraBoost mode, if that exists)?
The one with red dials isn't from my car, I just googled that one as I didn't have one photographed from before. But that's what it looked like for me in sport, xtraboost and sport individual. And now it's not.. :/ so weird!

Unless of course there isn't a option somewhere in the settings? But I can't find anything anywhere..

No one else with a 330e and latest software update that has the same as me?

I noticed when using CarPlay, pressing the Media button on the center console does nothing. Mode button on the steering wheel always works regardless of current mode.

Can't remember if the media button worked in CarPlay mode before upgrading, but it works fine when not using CarPlay so it seems like a software issue, not hardware.

Yepp that's what mine used to look like also, but no more...

Go and update yours!

I think it was better before.. not sure why they have changed it?

At least the good thing is I don't have any brake fluid light yet, have had to car for 10 days or so I think now with the newest update

I got my 330i back from the dealer with...

11/2019.34

Not sure what all is different, but it always shows the cruise control speed in the HUD now.

Not sure but this may be the first sighting of an 11/2019 software version. Would be nice if BMW provided a Changelog/new features list/bug fixes...

I was wondering if they would update the software to include cruise control in the HUD! Awesome!

Just got mine back yesterday and it also got the November update. Haven't had time to check out any differences yet other than more detail on the map in the instrument cluster.

Question

JayPichardo,

Do you have Spotify as one of your installed apps?

I'm asking because folks on another thread on DIY subforym (called Spotify) have that & they also mention Music package -- when I check Connected Portal, I don't see it as available?

Thanks

Makes sense now... I've been trying forever to get Spotify to show as an option under Media. Thought it was because I have an Android yet there is a YouTube video from BMW specifically showing it working on iDrive 6 with a S8.

NYC_340i,

I also have Samsung S8. My current way I use Spotify in my car is to get Spotify going on my phone & then select phone under Media.

Cumbersome, but it works

So checking mine just now both in the car and online using BMW's software update tool it reports no updates available on either ... go figure?!??

I suppose location and options/specification can make the difference to the need for an update


Current software 07/2019.55

I can only laugh because back in the summer when iDrive 7 was in pretty bad shape (at least from a CarPlay perspective), people were commenting that OTA had to be coming soon. I remember saying we'd be lucky to have it before 2020. This isn't something I was hoping to be right about, but unfortunately it looks to be holding true.

It's not there is no update available (for your version, at least), it's that BMW hasn't enabled OTA updates, so it's not able to check against BMW's server, and therefore it thinks it has the most up-to-date version.

My ParkMobile and now BMW Connected apps do not work on my 2020 330i with 07/2019.40 software anymore. Reset, logged out, etc. and still nothing. I've got an appointment to bring it in on Thursday. Thanks to everyone in this thread for sharing the latest software updates that are available!

I have a feeling in europe OTA updates either don't work or require 11/2019.xx to start working... time will tell but before I was on 07/2019.xx and it never did an OTA update...

I would bring it in and demand an update if you have issues (I had a connected drive issue where voice commands where not sent to the server and I always got a failed to connect to server message when I tried entering a destination using voice commands)

now I dont get that error anymore, but I still can't figure out how to search online for a destination based on name alone.

In my F30 I could say online search and then the name of the place I wanted to go to and it would search the address on google.... can't figure out how to do that in the G20
