BMW iDrive - HDD Cloning & Encryption Removal
I have a F10 BMW 535i with iDrive NBT.
The drive is clicking, giving me "navigation is starting", loss of bluetooth, etc I read through the steps to reimage a HDD with QNX but hit a wall when I wasn't able to get a license in order to install the OS using the new HDD connected to a virtual box. I gave up on that option, now, my friend has given me a drive from one of his cars that is the same model/year/iDrive system. Now that I have the drive, how do I remove the encryption on the drive so my iDrive can recognize it? I put HIS hdd in my unit just to see if it would work, and it didn't. I can get the information from his head unit (I remember reading somewhere the password is a combination of information found labeled on the iDrive unit). Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. |
