I did go back in twice. The option for the B&W sound does not appear on the BimmerCode menu. The option to bypass the startup legal disclaimer also no longer appears on the BimmerCode menu.

They were both still there when I recoded after the software update. I disabled the disclaimer again.

Did you use Bimmercode 3, M3 option?

OK I figured it out. For some reason, unbeknownst to me, my Bimmercode App was not recognizing that I had purchased the full version and hence the headunit contrpol module was not being displayed. The head unit module controls the B&W sound and legal disclaimer on start up. So all is good again.

Seems like I’m never going to get this update on my ID7

Is the update only id8? Could have sworn that some people with id7 received it.

Check again. It’s you who are in the wrong forum

Anyway, the thread is about the ID8, which all M2s have and newer G42s too. Older G42 will have ID7 and their updates, if any.

So far all updates for the ID8 have also been pushed for the ID7.

This isn’t solely about ID8

Not sure on that one. All I know is that the versions have always matched up and release at the same time.

In the past I’ve always gotten the update right away, at least when news hits the forums about it, but this time no such luck.

I know they do rolling updates so guess they are making me wait this time.

Came back because I recently noticed the "RPM wings" on the HUD's 'Sport Display' mode now rotate with the G forces the car experiences. They also yaw-move with the steering angle. I swear they didn't move when I got the car in October.

Not sure if it was the 07 firmware, a recent 'App Updates' package, or if I just didn't notice? Whack.

My ConnectedDrive expires in 26.08.2024 (today is 3-24-24). I would like to force push any ID updates if possible. Currently CarPlay is not recognizing devices connected via USB plus I see the GUI is much friendlier on ID7...any sugestions?

There is no way to force updates. They are only sent out by BMW. You could go to your dealer and ask them to update but most won’t even do that unless there is an issue that is fixed by a newer update.

Your only chance is to go to the dealer and show them that devices arent being recognized. But most likely they will say “that’s not a compatible device”. They generally hate doing upgrades in my experience.
