and I can't activate fullscreen, you can help me with an upgrade that allows me to activate fullscreen
I also ask you how much it costs, I have ethernet cable, esys, to be able to upgrade, I need the file
Does this make the warranty void?
I await your reply
Many thanks

you have to send kubux a few pieces of info specific to your car, PM him and he will tell you what you need.

ENET cables are available via Prime for next day delivery for <$20.

Screen Mirroring is for Android, CarPlay is for iPhone.

Understand but when mirroring does it utilize the full screen for example when using Google maps

Kubax86 is legit. I'm glad I went to him for my full screen CarPlay. One snag I ran into (through no fault of Kubax86) was that my MacBook Air does not have an Ethernet port, and the Windows 7 I was running via VMWare did not have a driver for the Apple dongle. It took much research to install the right driver, and it all worked out at the end.

I use it mostly for Waze, and though the split screen was adequate, the full screen is much less cluttered. It's like having both eyes open instead of one. Definitely a worthwhile mod.

Just received 2020 M2C on Oct 31st. Random incoming text kills audio for the entire system (FM, Sat, CD)
Turning car off, muting and un-muting / nothing works.

Deleted CarPlay and hasn't happened again. Anyone else having this issue?

Thought I'd wait for next iOS update and try it again.

I had mine lock up so bad on the way home from the dealer, I had no sound whatsoever. I think it was a text coming in right when I was doing something. Had to power off the car - not easy to do when driving on the highway (ok, I got off the highway and did it).

I tried it again - on my M3 recently with iOS 13 and wow, I think it was worse. Had the way BMW has implemented. Love it in my rental cars and even in my wife's Mini!

Hi All - My partner has a 440i and it came with the $300 CarPlay feature. It has been full screen this entire time, but he took the car in for work and they did a reprogram under recall. It’s now NBTevo_S19322I. We can not figure out how get fullscreen CarPlay back. Is it no longer possible without some mod?

My yearly subscription expired (without notice!) about 4 days ago... thought something had gone wrong with my phone/car then remembered they implemented this dumb subscription program.

Very irritating. If they had prompted me in the app or on start-up to "extend" it, I would have done it without hesitation. Now I'm considering other CarPlay options. Smart move BMW

I've considered trading in the x4 just to get free CarPlay again.



I kid.... but I do need to sign up for that again. I miss Waze too much.

I still have a few months left on my free year. When it expires I think I'll just go the $300 for 20yrs route so I don't have to worry about renewing it.

Apple maps is incredibly good these days. At least in Australia anyway. Way better then Google maps from a UX and map perspective, though they both miss some POIs, one will get one, the other will get another. As much as I love CarPlay there’s no way I’m paying AUD$500 for it. I’ll just give the BMW stuff a go for now.
Well you are clearly an idiot Davil. The 2019 version of you shelled out $600 for a lifetime licence. Money well spent. Well, depends if you get the M2cs. In that case it is money well spent for someone else.

I ended up reaching out to kubax86 and got everything I needed from him: permanent Carplay, fullscreen, and video mirroring for LESS than BMW's yearly rate.

Install took 5 minutes.

Can't recommend his service enough


For all those wanting full screen apple carplay... https://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1563454
