Screen Mirroring

What is the consensus on screen mirroring with iDrive 5.0? I've seen it work on the new 7 but haven't seen anything for our cars.

Not sure, I'm an iOS guy so haven't looked at it in much detail. BimmerCode has an account now and they've been replying to posts on the thread under the Nav section, they should be able to answer your question.

Thanks. Apparently it won't work for Google phones like 6P or Pixel either.

Correct. It worked on my 6P until Nougat came out. I have a Nexus 5 I just leave in the center console charging to mirror.

I think my grandpa might be able to help. He's a handy old buggar. Just telegraph me with your name and I'll send over immediately via USPS Pony Express. Horse and carriage if you provide his room/board/Old West wenches and whiskey.

To watch south park while I drink a beer. Latency is pretty high for gauges

Hi there,

also coded screen mirroring on my M240i. Working really good.

The only problem is that there is no sound over screen mirroring when my phone is also connected over Bluetooth with my car.

Is this normal or does it work on your car? If I disable Bluetooth the sound is there. Problem is that my Bluetooth is always on and connected cause of the handsfree.

Thanks.
