Please let me know if you end up doing this and how it works out. Looking to do the same on a 2021 750i. Thanks!

I installed it today successfully on my F90. After coding, image appears! But Navi and Carplay is not on all screen,so this should be fixed.

Can anyone share please coding parameters/solution , to sort this out.

Thanks

There is no coding to make this 100% work.

Bugs are:

- Nav screen needs left right controler to change to full screen
- Animations are bluured and scrambled ( when you press sport or comfort when the car comes animation)
- some images in settings are also blured

Also there's no Carplay on Full screen (available to solve it on iStep till 2019)

Exclamation Coding parameter

Hi guys,

let's use my first post in this forum for something usefull.

Yesterday I upgraded my 2017 G30 with ID6 from 10.25 inch screen, to 12,3 inch.
Like written here, everything is working now, execpt the map view, which is starting with a white frame around its corners.
To stretch the map to fullscreen you have to toggle the I-Drive-Controller one time to the right side (split screen menu appears) and two times to the left (to enter the left context column). After that the map is strechted to fullscreen.

In order to code the display to work, go into the ECU "Headunit" and search for parameter "CID_DISPLAY_RES".
Change the default value from: "1440_540 [03]"
to: "1920_720 [05]".

That's all to it.

I wish you a nice drive with your upgraded, more modern looking interior.
Greetings

Hi DasMatti,
Coud you share the part number of 12,3 inch you have installed?
What I have understood is ID6 can only support up to 10.25 inch screen but MGU can deal with 12,3..

Thanks in advance!!

Yeah sure.
You can use pretty much every 12,3 inch screen as long as it is from 2019 or early 2020 (I don't have an exact cut off date from which onward it will not work any more).
There are several iterations of screens. Therefore you can find at least 10 different part numbers that can fit. Just look for the production date.

You can do this upgrade with ID6 (NBT Evo). You don't need an MGU.
But keep in mind, that the map won't be displayed correctly the first time starting the app. You have to toggle the I-Drive-Controller 1xright and 2x left in order to make it work (see my previous description).

Sadly not. You still have to toggle the I-Drive-Controller 1xright and 2xleft.
I will continue looking into a fix for that, but I am not very confident, that I can fix that.

You can check it easily from navigation -> position and version, then something like NBTEVO_x could be displayed.
The dealer just updated my car to NBTEVO_Y last friday, so want to have a try, but did not find the good model yet.. hope there will be no issue with the last release..
