No bueno... I updated today and have two false (I hope) issues flagged. Safety systems (pedestrian warning and something else) plus lighting system faults were thrown afterwards.

Anyone else get this?

Yes the second post in this thread.

I had a few errors. These go away after shutting down the car and/or do short trip.

So I got a remote software update message pop up yesterday. I tried connecting the car via WiFi as mentioned but the WiFi does not connect at all. Do you need to have a paid subscription for the WiFi to connect? If not then what am i doing wrong? This is for the update to transfer from the phone to the car.

I am in California and the update version I got is 11.2019/70

It's not you car you connect to wifi, but your phone that has the connected app that needs connected to the wifi of the car. Then the update transfer will take place from your phone to the car.

Updated yesterday after notification sent. So far not able to remote engine start the car but I'll probably need to check the idrive setting later to enable it. I noticed that there's a new checkbox for daytime running lights with tail lights. However, went to check and I don't this option. Anyone know about it?

I updated to the latest software remotely and now my iPhone 7 (don't laugh) will drop 5-7 times in a 45 minute period. Very unstable. Prior to the remote software update my carplay work as it should. Updated to 11/2019.70

Any other users having this trouble? Any help would be appreciated.

I started having the dropping problem when I updated my iPhone two versions ago. It was very stable since last September until that iPhone update. I updated to the latest and still a lot of drops. I did the OTA update and the problem still exists. In my case at least, I believe it is a problem with the iPhone and not the X5 but who knows for sure.

So I am not sure what am I doing wrong but the download to my phone has finished and every time I drive the car the connected app connects to the car WiFi and Bluetooth and the display on the app just keeps saying uploading to car. There is no progress whatsoever for like 30 to 40 minutes (that is the longest I have driven in this covid situation) and I have also tried letting the key fob sit in the car along with my phone and the car battery turned on (just 1 step prior to ignition) and after 5 minutes the car turns itself off even though I had left the door open. Does this mean that the upload to the car from the phone will happen only when I am driving the car and not even a parked car in P with the engine running?

I had this issue initially but my mistake was I connected to my home WiFi and not to the car's WiFi ("BMW#####"). After that the progress indicator wasn't stuck at zero anymore, even before I took the car out for a short drive. When I got home I let the car running until the upload is complete.

It has downloaded to my phone alright but it just keeps saying uploading to the vehicle and the vehicle screen keeps saying that the preparation for the automatic download will begin soon.

I have ensured that my phone is connected to my car WiFi and the Bluetooth is connected as well. I kept the car running for 45 minutes today with my phone inside and still both, my cellphone and car screens kept saying the same thing. Eventually I turned off the car and was like screw this shit and made a service apt. Needed to go in for a few things anyway but kept delaying it because of the covid situation.

If you guys still have any tips then please let me know as I now want to go through this remote upgrade just out of curiosity of how well it works or not. Clearly at the moment it is not working out at all 🤷🏻*♂️

I had the same thing and what i found was my phone didn't pair correctly. Not sure why since it has always worked before. I removed the device from my phone and also the car then set a new devise and the download started and was fine.

I just drove the G05 after the OTA update to .70

So far, no problems. I have no idea what it does for me. The release notes were written by people trained to say a lot without really saying anything. But at least the car still drives down the road.

What do you mean you removed the device from your phone and the car? You mean you deleted your phone from the car and re paired it via Bluetooth?

Not this time round at least for me, not yet.

Back in January, UK owners received OTA update that installed the 07/2019.75 version. At that point in time, the 11/2019.xx versions were available at the dealers only. See this thread:

https://g05.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1684555

If the OTA notification comes through for UK owners, then it should be to the last stable version of 11/2019, which on the other threads about it is 11/2019.70. Thus, if not on that version, the OTA will bring you up to that version step. Since you have 11/2019.55, it should apply to you too.

The OTA's appear to be 1 version behind the dealers version - surmised on the forum that this is to allow a stable version to be sent as OTA, which does make sense when it is a vehicle that is receiving it.

I'm awaiting the OTA to go live here in the UK, as there are a couple of things I'd like (rear DRL's, the Drive Recorder option since I have the full setup for it) - keep checking the ConnectedDrive app every few days but so far nothing!

I just got notified via the app that the remote update to .70 was available. I was hesitant to do it at first, debating on whether I should drive to the dealership and do it there in case it bricks my car. But I decided to have a leap a faith and did it while parked at home.

I guess it automatically uploaded to the car while I was just driving around. I have the app to download on cellular. It only asked to install after I parked and turned off the car.

It took about 20 mins. Some accessory fan could be heard while it was doing the update. After it was complete, I lost my programming for drive mode, auto start/stop and vehicle in motion. The headlights were also set to just on, which I thought was weird.

I reprogrammed through bimmercode and everything seems fine.

Updated without issue yesterday to .70

Like Frenetic, I also noticed headlights were taken out of Auto and ASS was disabled. Went through the menus, nothing new since the previous 2019.11.xx version.
