In BDC - 3070.
Search for ensemble_layer...
if your software is compatible you can change 8 ensemble, 3 layers. Lots of Video online on the topic as well.

Changing /adding phone Apps which show under Radio

Does anyone know if there is a way to augment / code which iOS apps show up under "radio"? I have a 2015 x5 (F15) and under radio Pandora and Napster (haha) are visible. I often use Spotify and it only shows up under Connected Drive and when playing media from "External Devices". Is it possible to add Spotify to the Radio menu? any ideas?

Thanks!!

2018 35 x5! Recently coded using bummer code and loved it. Just a few questions. I coded the mirrors to close inward and outward while locking and unlocking. Only problem while locking is the mirrors close every 5th lock or so. I tried holding down the button longer and still nothing. They open durning the unlock process normally. Am I doing something wrong?

Also coded video in motion. Does it play blue ray movies?

I wish there was a way to play Netflix and other apps from our phone but I don’t want to go into any other mods.

Also can now close the trunk with key. Great add on. Took out the warnings for seat belt, start up.

Just need some advise with mirrors!

Thanks

Should not need to code anything. For ID4, it uses Dragonspeak subscription. For ID5+, you can dictate without paying. For both, you can longpress PTT and use Siri/Assistant.

If you want to pay for Dragonspeak, then it is usable on ID4.

I just use Phone's assistant.

Appreciate your help.
The other feature like Delete are also disabled. Do they require DragonSpeak as well ?

Thank you

No. You should have option to select Reply and Delete. For reply, it will give warning and start Dragonspeak. For delete, it just asks for confirmation.

This has been my experience with Android and ID4.

Does anyone know if it is possible to code the low beams or the fog lights as welcome lights thru Bimmercode?

Thought I’d post this here as well.

Here is my coding for ambient lighting color changes on the updated BDC_BODY ECU.

So, for some reason I can only get the channel to show up in Bimmercode and not in Esys, I have tried searching for the exact channels in Esys but they do not pull anything up, but here is the path:

BDC_BODY->Expert Mode->3076 DG_3076
This will pull up all of the ensemble groups and layers just like the previous versions but now each layer is split into an R, G & B channel. As a reminder, only 1-9 Ensemble groups are used in the F15 and only layers 1-3 (1-door contour line, 2-armrest area, 3-footwell).

To change the color of a layer each layer you have to set the RBG color parameters in Hexadecimal, which could potentially lead to infinite color options, as you could choose any RGB combo and convert the numbers to hexadecimal.

For instance, if you wanted a Red color you would just make the R channel FE (255) and leave the other channels at 00. Here is one website where you can choose your RGB color, https://www.w3schools.com/colors/colors_rgb.asp then take those RGB Values to this site http://hextodecimal.com/index.php and find the corresponding Hex number and just plug that hex in for the werte value for each corresponding R G B channel in bimmercode.

Here are the Wertes for the three colors I've figured out that match the previously pre-selectable ones:

MINT (Gruen):
R: 10
G: FE
B: 32

DYNAMIC BLUE (Blau):
R: 00
G: 42
B: FE

LILAC (Flieder):
R: 78
G: 3C
B: FE

Voila! Now it's not a curse to have the updated BDC_BODY but a blessing because we are no longer limited to pre-selected colors and can create whatever color you'd want!

Just got the Bimmercode ap and I've coded a few things but I have a question about fog lights. I have disabled the 'corner light' operation because it always looks like a bulb is burned out when you're turning at night. The thing is I actually do have a fog light bulb burned out and I want to switch them to LED H11 bulbs (amazon has lots of options) but I know some don't work, or flicker, or throw a bulb-out error in the CANBUS system etc.

In Bimmercode I noticed there's a on option for Fogs (bulb or LED)....if I change it to LED will that work to prevent bulb-out warnings or other potential issues?

Thanks
