Hi...
I'd like to participate in the beta. I do not currently have BM3 on my car. Do I just purchase a license? The DME can be unlocked via OBD now correct? No need to remove the DME? Thanks! |

Awesomeness!
I continue to enjoy my BM3 features and unbelievable it was the best option a few months ago and it's just became again the best option for this year. Congrats!!!

UPDATE*** Agent 0.9.74 is going out. It has a change to server connectivity. Make sure to update yours next time around. What was changed? At times we noticed that it'd take a number of tries to reconnect to servers and this issue has been resolved. Agent will come up a lot quicker now as well.

UPDATE: Version 0.9.96 is out. Changes include:
1) Fixed downloaded map handling fixing offline mode flashing for pre-downloaded maps as well as a bug that would cause repeat downloads when maps are already downloaded. 2) Changes to support the next iOS and Android app updates. Updates are being pushed out to the app stores today. Google Play Store always has it up within minutes of us pushing it up there. Apple on the other hand takes a couple days due to a much more rigorous app review policy. Cheers! For those wondering, we've added a great number of software versions support for OBD Unlock on the M2 and other N55s (EWG as well as PWG). |

Posted in the Facebook bootmod3 enthusiasts group, sharing here as well:
======== Trying to better manage OBD Agent updates and installs for those using laptops by creating an actual installer for it which should manage all updates going forward. This way users don't need to worry about Java JDK downloading or worrying about the version of it as it seems inevitable that it'll come up and some end up stuck spinning tires going nowhere (and we don't want to spin tires unless we really want to spin them ). I'm evaluating a version of an installer tool and put together installers for both Windows and Mac for those that'd like to try it out. If this works out well the manual agent.zip downloadable will be gone and the installer/app will replace it. It will check for updates in the background and download them automatically like other apps out there do. You can also uninstall the agent like any other app on your windows or mac and have a proper icon for it making management of this easier for those less tech savvy. Here's a link to the new beta macOS installer: https://www.dropbox.com/s/yg95gvpy1f...macos.dmg?dl=1 Here's a link to the new beta Windows installer: https://www.dropbox.com/s/yujs9scblq...ndows.exe?dl=1 It now bundles the appropriate version of Java inside the installer as well and no separate download will be necessary for anyone downloading this fresh to a new laptop mac or windows. Please let me know if/when you get a chance to try it out if any issues at all. |

*** OBD Agent Installer Update ***
Some Windows users encountered an issue yesterday that indicated reading of vehicle ID was not working. It had to do with the new agent installer. The really awesome Windows operating system locks down file permissions even for the folder where the app is installed Installer has now been updated and we've also moved it off of Dropbox onto our own servers in order for the auto-update feature to be functional. If you have it already we'd strongly suggest downloading and reinstalling it from here: http://www.bootmod3.net/downloads/ Windows installs the OBD Agent under C:\Program Files(x86)\bootmod3 by default. It now behaves as any other app in Windows or macOS and can be installed/uninstalled using the conventional ways other software is done. P.S. macOS is a wonderful thing and you can run Windows on it too just fine, if you have to.. |

PTF just announced in another thread
We've also just announced a change to handling additional OTS (off the shelf) maps. Going forward we're moving away from charging for individual additional OTS maps and instead we'll be providing access to ALL OTS maps we might have for your car at any given time! What does this mean? What used to be the cost 1 additional ($50 for N20/N26/N55, $100 for S55 and $150 for S63tu/N63tu) is now the cost of the entire OTS Maps bundle. All OTS maps, including the free ones of course, will now become flashable for the cost of what used to be 1 additional OTS map. Changes are effective immediately on our website and in the system. Anyone that has already paid for an additional OTS map in the past now has automatic access to all other OTS Maps by default and any OTS maps we're going to release in the future. With bootmod3's offline flash feature it takes just shy of 4 minutes to go from stock to OBD unlocked and tuned with an OTS map on the car and about 40 seconds to switch (flash) from one map to another. It runs on anything you can imagine from Windows and macOS laptops to mobile iOS and Android devices. All that is required outside of a laptop to get going with it is just a $20 generic BMW ENET coding cable you can get on Amazon and you're good to go!
