There is a guy in eBay who claims that he can do it , he charged me , I kept sending him emails for more than 2 weeks , where he answered that it will be soon once and then disappeared , when i send him that he is not professional , he cancelled my order by himself and said i dont want to do it for you , when i put a review about how bad my experience was , he sent me an email threatening me that if I didn’t remove my feedback that he will work with everybody he knows to prevent me from installing apple CarPlay , guys try to avoid him , he is a major scam
The seller name is bimmertechnology |

@Silver.Solid Fantastic news!! I’m in the same boat as you though bought mine in Bahrain. I’ve reached out to @hauer so hopefully he can help. By the way, does the BMW app work with your X5 for updates and other functions?

Sadly for those functions to work, you need connected drive to work which I still couldn't do. Still need to do manual update map and software updates. |

I know you're a Android user, but how does your navigation apps work after getting Carplay and Android Auto coded in? For me, CarPlay works fine, but as soon as I use any navigation app, Apple Maps, Waze, Google Maps, and others, the GPS is lost. It's completely unusable. This was the main reason for wanting CarPlay in the first place is to be able to use the navigation! Its like the car is trying to use GPS from the car, which it can't because it doesn't work here in Korea. Everything I've read says it uses my phones wifi/gps signal. Again, everything works fine in my $20K Hyundai, but the BMW has constant issues with CarPlay. Its quite frustrating. I ended up buying a phone holder and just using my phones navigation, which is frustrating because I have to continuously disconnect CarPlay.

Honestly, i did not encounter this problem. if i understand your issue correctly, i can switch between maps and google maps on apple, then back to android auto then to the factory maps without any issues. |

Kubax86 can you please contact me. I have been trying to send a message to the user but I seem to be able unable to do it. I got AJCW mini Cooper countryman delivered yesterday. I just found out that I am unable to use a lot of the features that come with it as they are locked since this is a US spec car. I would love to be able to use Apple CarPlay and the other features but he seems that the dealership is unable to help. I would love to be able have my car operate as it should. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I recently arrive to Germany as I am a soldier station here.

kubax86 please help me with unlocking my Apple CarPlay. I have tried to send you a few private messages but the date seem to go out. I am a soldier station in German and I recently got 2023J CW countryman Mini Cooper delivered. It is my understanding that you have figured out a way to unlock the features that would allow Apple CarPlay to function in the vehicle. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciate it.

Search for his user name on this forum. No it should not void any warranty. Best modification to date

Hauer, I’m trying to get hooked up too. Is there an alternate way to contact you? I’m new and locked from PMing for the next 7 days until verified. I also have a US spec G05 stationed in Korea trying to get CarPlay.

I too am in same boat... No connected drive in Qatar supplied 2019 X5 G05, no apps, can't register the car on My BMW app as there is no BMW messages function in the COM menu, no Software Update option in General Settings menu.
Therefore No Carplay or Android Auto - I didn't expect Android Auto to function anyway to be honest, as I'm not sure the car has had the software update performed at dealership. |
