Coding Idrive 6 + Full Screen Carplay and Installing WiFi Antenna

[@BigJoeyVtC]

Thanks for the video man! Was a little anxious about doing it but I feel better knowing you had a good experience.

[@alvinmpower4985]

Np, very easy process

[@Gchild-mos0311]

Have you already done it? If so how is it

[@jordanmanuelpillai2866]

A quick tip is to move the wifi antenna away from the headunit, some signals can interfere with each other of the source is too close

[@nrkorolev]

I was curious, do steering wheel controls work with Apple CarPlay? Like let’s say, are you able to switch tracks from the steering wheel?

[@shubdeepsingh8376]

Just did same steps and unfortunately same for me my first wifi antenna is not working out for me .. I’m able to connect to CarPlay for a split second before it disconnects due to the weak connection . I’ve ordered another Wi-Fi antenna to see if that’s the issue . Hoping to see same results as you

[@alvinmpower4985]

Good luck 👍

[@jordanmanuelpillai2866]

Try to untangle and move the antenna a bit away from the bluetooth module and tx antennas and wires, and the rx ofc to not interfere with other systems, but wifi seems to be the most affected due to the required low latency

[@geofflo1975]

did a new antenna work?

[@rajwindersingh9573]

Can you still use bimmer code after this update?

[@alvinmpower4985]

@@rajwindersingh9573 most of the features, I think anything related to idrive should be avoided.

[@ibreti]

hello , Are there any delays in operation after the update? because I'm also going to make updates like you. what do you recommend?

[@alvinmpower4985]

No delay, works just like my previous f32 with oem system. Might disconnect randomly but all of them do.

[@DedaMrasz]

Hi mate, did you have some issue with rebooting or some crashes after some time? I know that ID4 has 2GB ram while ID 5/6 has 4GB ram. I am just asking because I have ID4 as well. Thank you!

[@alvinmpower4985]

Yeah, only happens on longer drives, but very rare.

[@DedaMrasz]

@@alvinmpower4985 thank you. Do you mean longer drives with carplay or with oem navigation? Cheers

[@alvinmpower4985]

@@DedaMrasz CarPlay, but it shuts the whole system down and reboot itself

[@DedaMrasz]

@@alvinmpower4985 alright. That is not a big deal if only happens on longer drives. It depends what is “longer” drives. If will happen every 30 minutes it will be annoying.

[@alvinmpower4985]

@@DedaMrasz like 3 hours + long drives, will happen, but not often.

[@tirechapinguy]

Does support Android play ?

[@alvinmpower4985]

@@tirechapinguy no, bmw OEM system on the f series never had android auto, you need an aftermarket full system.

[@Gchild-mos0311]

How is this been for you so far? After 1 year

[@alvinmpower4985]

Works as well as when I got it.

[@iHACKER0626]

how do i flash back to stock from bimmer remote ???

[@alvinmpower4985]

You can use bimmercode to restore factory setting.

[@개백수카푸어]

Was it nbt idrive 4? Or nbt evo idrive4?

[@alvinmpower4985]

I'm not sure what the difference is tbh, all I know is it's Idrive 4.

[@karlevardson]

Make sure to buy OEM bmw antenna around £25/$27

[@zhuofeng1089]

你好，请问idrive 4 带gps端口吗？我是nbt系统想换evo，看到id5和6主机都没有gps接口了

[@alvinmpower4985]

这个我也不是很清楚。
