Couple shots of my wireless non USB connection using my iPhone 4S with iOS6 Beta 1. iOS6 Beta 1 is still a little buggy but this is a great start. I suspect the (Sender Unknown) header will be fixed with the next beta release.

I am also running the latest Connected Drive Bluetooth and USB update from BMW. BMW Update Link

Update 06/25/2012: *iOS6 Beta 2 released today. *The senders name now displays in the message header. *SMS Messages are still flagged as Email and not text messages but are still readable and functional.

Update 09/19/2012: iOS6 GM was released today. Only SMS messages are currently working with the release. Email messages are currently not working.

Hi - Thanks for posting this thread +pics.

Your Version Number is TX- 3.5.4 - 3.4 in the picture above.

I am trying to get a F10 produced in 2010, model year 2011 to work with either an iPhone 5 (iOS 6.1.2) or Samsung S III (Android 4.1.2) to work nicely with the phones over Bluetooth.


This page: http://www.bmw.com/bluetooth
Says to check the "Version Number":
In BMW vehicles with the new generation iDrive, please proceed as follows:
press the "Tel" button on the iDrive Controller, then "Options" and afterwards select the submenu "Bluetooth info" and "Display system info".

*** How can one upgrade the Version Number/ software to the latest avail. regardless of production year? Is that even possible?


That appears to be different from this:
This page: http://bmw.com/update
Based on last-7 of the VIN, the latest update avail is UPD01006. The content of that update is applied based on the "Version Number" above it seems and it installs MX-3.5.4, TX-3.5.6 in my case.
