CarPlay Full Screen in the M5
Wanted this for 3 years in my 2019 M5 and finally had to dig in myself.
I did multiple searches to find instructions. I was able to piece together what i needed to know through various posts. There are folks out there providing coding services as usual but I have tools so why not. I have eSYS and BimmerCode so I went simple first with BimmerCode and found success. I'm not sure what's relevant here so here are the stats on my System: CarPlay activated by BMW (1yr). Upgraded by BMW to lifetime. I Level: S15A-21-7-555 111174.3.210 North American EVO 2018-2 NBTevo_X20511I Telephone: TB-007.030.001 Media: TB-007.030.001 BimmerCode Full Version: 4.1 (12440) - 13.1.0 using Vgate iCar Pro Bluetooth 4.0 dongle 1 - Logged into the car with BimmerCode 2 - Headunit [module] 3 - Chose Expert Mode 4 - 3000 HMI [module] 5 - Scrolled for a zillion lines to CARPLAY_FULLSCREEN, tapped > to open 6 - Tapped "aktiv" (was nicht_aktiv) 7 - tap < 8 - tap Back 9 - tap Code You'll need to reprogram favorites anytime you code the head unit.

Tried to do the same just now, no luck . I've also tried this maybe a year ago and had the same results as I did today. Still wanted to try it, thinking that maybe BimmerCode changed something with their update, after seeing your thread.
Once I coded it, on the right of the CarPlay screen I just get a white box. Same results on my '19 M5 and my wife's '19 X3 |

I recently did this with this method from another forum member and it was a no brainer. Worked fine and highly recommend. Current FX makes it like $27 USD.

euro* I've seen on other threads when researching this that the white box appeared - I'll try to find the reference.
Do you have other coding setup? Perhaps another setting is causing an issue? This is a bummer. ps I added a couple more data points (in my first post regarding my system but I doubt that has any bearing. 111174.3.210 North American EVO 2018-2 BimmerCode Full Version: 4.1 (12440) - 13.1.0 Vgate iCar Pro Bluetooth 4.0 dongle Last edited by RobRed; 11-23-2021 at 08:17 PM.. |

About your other questions, CarPlay in both cars came from factory, lifetime. M5 had other coding, X3 didn't have any coding before. |

Just wanted to chime in and say this worked like a charm on my 2019. The previous owner did the trick to get it full screen but BMW flashed my iDrive when taking care of a recall. This trick worked on brought my back to full screen from split screen. Thanks RobRed !

has anyone got a simple fix for the white box on the side? I coded fullscreen carplay and got carplay looking like euro* pic. My car is EVO -N and has lifetime carplay.

Alternative would be convincing dealership to update software to X so you could simply code via BImmercode or E-sys. |
