OTA update

I just received, but haven't installed yet, software 07/2020.54. Release notes are pretty generic and non-specific. Anyone know what the changes are?

07/2020.54 OTA update

For what it's worth, here's an update on installed OTA 07/2020.54 software on 2021 M550.
1. Car didn't brick....
2. Did it outside and took about 20 minutes
3. It did reverse some of my Bimmercodeing, not sure how much but ASS is still "last setting"
4. Daytime driving lights now both front and back, both on or off.
5. Seemed to move a couple things on instrument display.....not sure what exactly.
6. Some previous iDrive settings dropped out so needed to be reselected.
7. Gained 150 HP and a fresh cup of coffee was waiting in the cupholder.....maybe.

Thanks for the info. I have yet to receive an iDrive update on my 2021. Hope they start letting us know the release notes when it does update.

i updated the octorber update (need to check which software version was it), havent really played around much but i got VIM coding and M logo, 5 times turn indicator coding that I can notice so far. The bass on HK went off which gave me a scare, after restarting the ECU, and a a couple reboots on the idrive it still did not come back. I shut off the car and let it sit for a couple minutes and started it - after which the audio was back to normal.
