How add GPS Tracking

botho · 12-30-2015, 12:58 PM

Anybody knows how activate GPS tracking by coding ? see menu entry in this post

This enable the BMW connected drive mobile application to locate your car even if you are too far from your car : see picture's post

Seems that car build after september 14 have been updated OTA according the thread

Perhaps VO coding build date would add this or need a specific NBT hardware version ?
Mine is June '14

Tanks for advices

Sorry I meant 3rd link. Ok I don't have NBT so I haven't done this myself but I think there is a setting buried in the connected drive menu of the iDrive for activating this option. I've seen it in other threads.

No way in the connectedDrive options. I've done a refresh of my services and the menu entry "GPS tracking" doesn't appear.

Sorry I can't help any further. I don't have NBT so I haven't done it and can't try myself anyway.
