CAR: 2016 F11 520D M-Sport / HU-NBT

EBT (Office menu)
First thing, I was having a lot of trouble getting this to work, for instance, I could get the Office menu, but wouldn't see texts or emails, or I could get texts, but no cover art over BT, or I would lose voice commands and the ability to summon Siri from the steering wheel button... eventually I started looking into what each item on the cheat sheets did and found what worked best for me:

Attachment 2042803

This particular coding got me the following:

- Office menu
- Covert Art over USB and BT
- Full SMS from my iPhone (no email though, still working that one out)
- Full use of voice commands and Siri button
- All other functions as before

If anyone has anything to add that would aid in getting emails to work I would be grateful.

Remember you will have to forget your phone from the Bluetooth menu and forget your car from your phone, once all the coding is done, you should pair them up again.


Compass and x-Drive menu

I wanted the Compass displayed on my 6WA dash, and then I found that you could enable xDrive Status even if your car is not xDrive, to show the compass and pitch and roll (I don't think torque is working)

I have also coded the m550d logo, on the dash but that one I'm sure you all know by now how to do.

These are the items that worked for me:

Attachment 2042786

See below for pictures of the result:

Attachment 2042788

Attachment 2042787


Video-in-motion and extended Codec pack

I've installed an SSD on the central console with a few movies (all legally owned ) and just enable these settings:

Attachment 2042793

I can probably upload a video if anyone wants to see how that looks while working but here is a few pics:

Attachment 2042795

Hope this helps if someone is having a bit of a headache like I was specially with the Office stuff.

Next steps for me will probably be trying to code SPORT+, but all my reading says it cannot be done just yet on BimmerCode for my F11 at least. Again, if anyone has any input, more than glad to listen
Thanks for posting this. I will be trying the Compass addition via Bimmercode in the next few days.

You really should start a new thread about Coding with BimmerCode Expert Mode - I am sure there a many here who prefer BimmerCode for quick coding.

I believe it can't be done on the 5 series.

That's a shame. 3 blinks isn't enough sometimes.

Awesome Info! Finally I got a little time to look into this and was able to code the compass and Gyro feature in. Didn't need the rest as my car had it from the factory. Very interested in more stuff. If you discover something new, please post.

EDIT: Coding in the Compass messed up my Navigation somehow so I uncoded it. This is just for FYI of anyone thinking of coding the above.

Coding EBT with HU_ENTRYNAV

Hi All,

New around these parts and novice when it comes to coding.
Have done bits and pieces in the past on a couple of F30s.

Just picked up an MY15 F11. It has HU_ENTRYNAV and 606 in the VO.
I tried coding Enhanced Bluetooth and Office by VO Coding 6NS (also tried 6NK) but this resulted in losing the Navigation menu/function on the iDrive.

VO Coded back to 606 and played around with FDL coding the HU_ENTRYNAV Module. Currently have Telephone 2 working ok but no Office yet. Will have another look at the FDL coding later - must have missed something.

Would have preferred to VO code EBT as it seems "cleaner" and was successful on the F30s that I did although these had Combox-s. Does anyone know if it is possible to VO code EBT with HU_ENTRYNAV and if so what value should I code?

Also was hoping to get USB Video working but from other posts (although not a lot of info on the subject) it seems this is not possible with HU_ENTRYNAV? Is there any hope on this one or does anyone know why it cant be got to working.

What is the latest recommended tools for coding? I managed to get e-sys 3.28 working with launcher pro 2.8.2. Had donated previously but when I went to fire up launcher premium recently I found it had expired and to be honest I was struggling to follow the story or what went on there.

What are other people using using for coding?

Would really appreciate it also if someone could pm me a link to latest psdzdata also.

Only really dip in and out of coding but have found this forum really useful and really appreciate any tips or advice.

Thanks all.

OK, So seem to have successfully FDL coded Office features on the F11 with HU_ENTRYNAV.

Everything seems to work ok with the exception of Voice Notes (which don't seem to record properly). I suspect this may be because the HU_ENTRYNAV does not have the capability to do this?
Can anyone confirm?

Still could do with getting my hands on latest psdzdata full. If someone could PM me a link I would really appreciate it.

Thanks

Hi guys. I'm new here and recently purchased a 2011 535i. I also have a Lexus LS460 and connect to the OBD2 with my laptop with a cable that I purchased to run techstream. Does anyone know if this cable would work to connect to my BMW and operate E-sys or will I need to find a different way to connect?

Below is a link to the cable I have.

You'll need this one...

I quit ESys when it became complicated and too hard for me to figure out. I went to BimmerCode and couldn't be happier. That said, I have the correct cable if you want it.

Thanks for the link. I would love to have your cable, but would probably cost more in shipping than to just buy it new.

Wish I knew I was getting a BMW a few months back. Bought that techstream cable and a Bluedriver which neither will help for this setup. Lol
