Updated on iOS or Android? Don't see a recent update on iOS in Canada yet.

Android was what I was using - loaded it up and changed some stuff, the standard stuff you can usually do in idrive, remove all the legal disclaimers at startup, startup animation you can switch to M, Mini, Rolls or BMW, turn on temp on pressure sensors and a few other things. Video in motion is an option, I turned it on and then it said there was a second step and you had to push the idrive controller up while it reset and then it should open a speedlock menu - tried a few times didn't seem to work, so will try video in motion at some point but seems it may not be fully unlocked on mine with the second step failing.

I'm not seeing it in my app either but if you go into supported cars and go to the G05 I see a bunch of stuff.

Just got the App update in Canada and see a lot of stuff like starting the X5 in Eco Mode. Any chance to start this in Adaptive Mode? I saw someone having the ability to remove the startup warnings but I didn't see that in my App.

Correction: the Eco Mode was related to turning off the Start Stop feature.

We still can default to a drive mode.

Sorry guys, I stand corrected. When I Connected the unit nothing has changed from the options we had in the original programming. Maybe it's a Canadian thing.

All the newer stuff I saw is under headunit, I am also n the beta program.

Did you have headunit before, the notes specifically say they added it on the 22nd.

WHAT'S NEW
- Coding of the new ID7 headunit
- Bug fixes

Sorry, you are correct. I had trouble with the VIM as well. I couldn't bring up the speed lock.

My guess is the dev forgot to code
SPEEDLOCK_FREISCHALTMENU to active.

I would say the new coding for HU_MGU are working, at least for me: Canada, 3/2019.45, coding on Android just now.

Love that I can now see the temperature. What was up with not including that by default BMW, how can that be detrimental to drivers or a liability issue ... so many stupid UX decisions ...

Nice thanks for this, when you code it, it tries to open that menu, tells you to hold the idrive controller in the up position and it restarts idrive but it doesn't work for some reason, that key sequence will do it!

All G05 X5's in the US should have MGU idrive 7 which you can code Video in motion now. any of the adapters on bimmercode's website should work, I use the OBDLink LX for android to do mine. https://bimmercode.app/adapters/

After you activate it in the coding you will have to follow the instructions eaglesrest posted above to remove the speedlock on it.

+1

I'll add that:
- I am using OBDLink MX+ on both iOS and Android
- there has, in fact, been geography issues with Bimmercode in the recent past, even between US and Canada
- there can be issues dependent on iDrive version and/or ISTEP version

The last two are just cautions. Coding is complex and Bimmercode developer is obviously swamped with the massive fragmentation of systems from BMW: # of models x # of options x # of countries x # of software versions = a rather massive number of permutations that cannot be tested explicitly (impossible number of test environments). Send him some money, it is existentially motivating when faced with this kind of complexity.
