According to your experience , is 1 hr enough?
Is this the new software version?
Do I need to do anything else ?
I hour??, thats not long enough for a full update. Mine took 12 hours at the dealership.

Test with this file.
If you want internet, you must remove $612 (Assist).

Okay, thank you very much!
First I need to setup a combox in my car, then I'll try your file. Thank you again!

Hello again!
Yesterday I coded my combox. It works OK, audio via bluetooth, USB/AUX. Working internet, Office contacts (without pictures, hmm, iPhone 4 maybe confused). BMW Online not working, it says me to activate data services and go to bmw.com/bluetooth for information. But BMW Online and Internet are available for me when updating services. Maybe I need to recode my car with another VIN's or VO, I'll try later. Also via bluetooth my car has name BMW 50235, not BMW + my VIN's last 5 digits. I've changed MEDIA VIN (c_fg_schreiben), but nothing changed. Maybe I need to change somethin' in MEDIA configuration?

Another big problem that now I can't code anything in my car using original ZCS/FA from ECU
NCS Expert says me, that he doesn't know option HFP_AUDIO_PROFILE and not allows me to process any ECU's. SP Daten files V49.4 for all chassis.

HFP_AUDIO_PROFILE is an option of CIC and it seems combox specific. I compared CIC.C1A disassembled files from E89 and E60 and noticed that there is only one difference: E60's CIC.C1A does not contain HFP_AUDIO_PROFILE, it has unused block at this point. All other 589 options are here. NCS Dummy does not provide any features for adding new options to daten files, only new value variants.

I can code a car with original ZCS/FA replacing CIC.C1A with E89's version. Then NCS works ok, but it can't code CIC, because it has different keyword hex-codes stored in DAT-file. DAT-file from E60 does not contain keyword codes for HFP_AUDIO_PROFILE too (

I have a question: how NCS knows unknown option name if it is not present on daten-files? When I code a car, what exactly do NCS? IMHO it codes not only binary config, but MAN source too. So my hypothesis, that I can just remove HFP_AUDIO_PROFILE option from MAN file while coding and then original E60 CIC.C1A will work perfectly. I'll try it soon, any comments welcome. Maybe I know too little for understanding the process of coding =/

The idrive shows vin of ssd in bluetooth menu. It's normal.
You must code the cic with .ssd file and compare the new .man with your old e60 .man
For other module, don't use the .ssd file
