Where do you purchase the MHD Adapter and how much did it cost? Will it work with an Android phone? Thanks.

It looks like Android is supported. See link below, there are 3 links for the available sellers.

I need help.

I can not make connection to my OBdLINK MX+ with Bimmercode app. It's keep telling me connection has been terminated. Am I doing anything wrong? My OBDLINK firmware version is 5.5.0

I have the Veepeak which isn't supported any longer. With the recent update, I can now close the trunk via inside door and remote. I'm happy!

Just to check, 30D does have Sport+ available from the driving mode button stock? If so, all you have to do is manually enter 02 — for some reason, the named parameter isn't available, but you can manually enter 02.

If Sport+ is not available stock on 30D, we'll need to do a bit more.

Hm. Did you select that exact interface in the Bimmercode setup before trying to connect? Is the car on (sorry)? Did you select G05 X5 when connecting? iOS or Android? Airplane mode with everything except Bluetooth off? Bluetooth on?

Is not stock on 30d just Sport or Sport Individual, the first time I coded it I remember pushing the Sport button once for Sport Individual then for Sport Standard and the 3rd click was for Sport+

Thank you LEXX.

iOS.

I was able to code some of the features like 5 blink turn signal,Alpina in instrument cluster etc. this morning. After doing all that I updated OBDLINK to 5.5.0 version and after that I tried to code again and since then the app is keep telling me connection error.

All the coding was done with engine running if that's make any difference. I have tried to code with engine running and off. Even tried with pushing the ignition button on without pressing brake paddle. When I try connecting the app. with engine off and as soon as I select X5 on the app instrument cluster comes on by itself and i get connection error. I have deleted bimmercode app. and reinstalled it just to see if that would help but nothing is working. I'm sure I am not doing something right but I just can not pinpoint what it is.

I have 03/2020.40

My apologies for long post.

UPDATE

Just received an email response from Bimmercode.

Hi,
this is a problem caused by the latest OBDLink firmware. Please contact OBDLink support for a solution. Downgrading the firmware will work most likely.



I'll downgrade firmware and try again later this afternoon.

I did upgrade the firmware to 5.50 and had the same issue. Also had issue connecting to OBDLink app had to factory reset and then downgrade to 5.40

All works fine with version 5.40.
Stay away from 5.50.

Thanks Jeet. I'll install 5.40.

One more thing if you or other members can help me with.

Do i code with SAV running,Off or One push of start button without pressing the brake paddle?

Which is the safe and more efficient way to code?

I have read all the pages and just can not remember.

Thank you

Just to confirm, the 30D definitely doesn't come with Sport+ from the factory, however it can be coded using “Expert mode”.

Body Domain Controller (BDC) ECU:-

3221 PfFesMaster module:
- FesPiaDefaultSportWorldMode: change to 0x02 (SportExpert, aka Sports Plus)
- FesSportWorldMode1: change to 0x02 (SportExpert, aka Sports Plus)

HU_MGU ECU (Head Unit):-
3008 FES module:
- FES_SPORT_EXPERT change to aktiv
- SPORT_CONF_ATTENUATION_SPORTPLUS change to active
- SPORT_CONF_STEERING_SPORTPLUS change to active

So today I was playing with Bimmerlink, opening and closing the exhaust flap. I then coded Active sound design off in Bimmercode, and now Bimmerlink throws an error when I try to control the exhaust flap.

Anyone else experienced the same?

Ha. That's new. Might have to start changing my "reliability advocacy" of OBDLinkII MX+ if they also can't QA/QC their firmware/software properly like most of the world can't. Grrr.

Can anyone show the different display layouts in the instrument cluster? It lists Alpina, BMW and M as selectable.

I'll take a photo of the M one tomorrow - it looks pretty cool. Uses a sportier font and the tacho runs to 9000 rpm I think.
