What android device are you using with bimemrcode ?

Hi guys,

Curious to know what android devices you guys are using to code your car with bimmercode ??

Specifically with trying to code the body control unit for sport plus +

I have no problem coding the smaller repositories but seem to not be able to load the biggest one which has the coding for the drive modes and etc.

I think it may be the processing or memory power of my Samsung android device. So want to make sure.

Any advice or information helpful

Thanks

I figured the problem. I was using a tablet and a dated tablet so the processor and memory wasn't that great for processing the body unit repository.

Went to best-buy and got a android with red dragon processor and worked flawless.

I'm very happy with my pops and crackles

I use my Samsung S8 with OBD Link+ for Bimmercode, but I also use my laptop with E-Sys & LauncherPro

I had a Vgate icar pro scanner and coded everything except Sport Plus and Comfort Plus - I needed a different, more expensive scanner, so bought a Unicarscan from Germany. Have now coded Sport & Comfort Plus. Bimmercode expert mode, 2 ecu settings to change.
