Hi all, i'm a new owner of f48 118d producted in 12/2018. it has S6UPA with carplay. I can see a protected wlan (carplay one ).
I tried coding with bimmercode, in advanced mode , using the strings thath i found online,but i get only Wlan shows up in the setting, but can´t activate it.

Anyone can help me to unlock this function?

Thanks

Hi
Coding for more colours is not possible on F48. The F48 only two led colours (white & orange is U.K) in ambient strip (unlike F15 which has more). If you try to code you only get white.

Hi
Try these, they are for F30 so exact ecu and descriptions may not be same. Use expert search mode if necessary. I have not done or tried this/these myself so thanks to other forum members incl bimmer4lif3

3000ENT_MC_WLAN_STREAM_DMP_COVERART set to: aktiv
3000ENT_MC_WLAN_STREAM_DMP_VIDEOset to: aktiv
3000ENT_MC_WLAN_STREAM_DMPset to: aktiv
3003WLAN_STATUSset to: aktiv
3003WLAN_MODUSset to: ap
3003WLAN_SIGNAL_STRENGTHset to: outdoor
3003WLAN_CHANNELset to: channel_1 -14
Enable WLAN_WIFI_DIRECT in TELEFON_TELEMATIK
Note WLAN_MODUS May be called be WLAN_AP - in which case set to aktiv

Let me know how you get on
But I still think the WLAN you are seeing is protected and purely for X1 ENTRYNAV2 HU to be able to handle CarPlay data volume, it uses/needs Bluetooth & WiFi combined.
You should/may see another accessible WLAN after coding with different description (guess on my part)

Already done! But there is only carplay wlan, I activated also MIRACAST BUT, nothing more than a checkbox in the menu that trying unsuccessfully,to activate WLAN!

What means "different description"?

Example, in Bimmercode for my F48 there is no FEM (front electronic module) and rear electronic module , instead these are combined into a body domain ecu. So for F48 the ecu you may need to code can have different description from ecu in say F15. This is why I said use search if you cannot find the fdl you want to change.

Another example already given in my message. WLAN_MODUS may be called WLAN_AP (so this fdl has different description). Remember, the Bimmercode app makes the descriptions and they can change. Many were just in original German and now most are in English.

All the people coding this are working with NBTevo head units. They are also making changes to other settings including ENT_MIRACast aktiv in HU_NBT2 which you may not have. You said you had looked at posts regarding MIRACast.

The X1 does not have NBTevo, it has ENTRYNAV OR ENTRYNAV2 Head Unit (except in Japan, China, Taiwan & Russia).
I am not sure it is possible. I said I had not done or tried to make this coding work myself. I just shared coding other people said worked for them.

I know you can order X1 with WLAN ready in order I to have WiFi hotspot in the car. This is separate to CarPlay ready. Your car will have a WLAN antenna fitted into the HU for CarPlay
but ..
It is possible you may need an extra module fitted. I believe (but may be wrong) that people successfully coding this have all had to activate MIRACAST or MIRA-CAST SETTINGS in HU_NBT2
Sorry

I saw a “ WiFi hot spot” heading in one of my X1 ecus. It was hidden near the bottom of list when in expert mode.
I do not remember exactly where I saw it and it does not show up in demo mode. So try going into each ecu in expert mode and searching for “hot” and then “spot” or opening each of main headings start with BDC and HU_Nbt

With subscription you can set up a wireless hotspot in the car using vehicle inbuilt sim, it will provide connectivity without need for mobile.

I hope that relates to my problem https://f48.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...postcount=1150

Maybe some of you experts can have a look and give me a hint.

Thanks in advance
