Bimmer software k+dcan cable going bad

So I purchased the k+dcan cable around 6 months ago from bimmer software with otg cable to install mhd on 2 of my BMWs,been working great and still flashes MHD maps without an issue.

I tried xhp install on my 2011 335i, and it stops randomly during install and gives a blank popup message.

Sent my files to xhp, they said cable communication has a lot of errors.

Has anyone else had this cable go bad or similar issues?

Haha I ordered it early this morning. Y'all are quick at shipping. It was shipped a few mins after I bought it. Left me scratching me head

We always ship early (10am est) on Saturdays so you placed your order just in time!

Haha that's an awesome name. I was amazed you were able to make it reliable and increase speed. Even the bimmer software cable which was the best for a long time, was very slow with MHD. Can't wait to see flash times with the new cable

Looks like newer software is requiring faster communication so probably the reason my other cable is not working with xhp.

I can attest to the LIGHTNING fast shipping, and EXCELLENT updates.

-Now if only I was as fast getting the software to install, I would be a happy man!

Big up for BimmerGeeks. -Hey, how do I boost their Rep? I'm new to the forum, but I want to recognize good service!

Does this cable substitute for and ICOM specifically when
doing the 2010 + radio recodes.
What are the programmings or codings that it can't do?
