BMW NBT EVO ID5/6 Android Auto Activation
This product enables Android Auto on compatible BMW and MINI
vehicles equipped with an NBT EVO ID5 or ID6 head unit.
Activation is simple and can be completed by the customer without advanced
BMW coding knowledge. After purchase, we provide a small activation
application together with the required activation code.
Requirements
- Compatible NBT EVO ID5 or ID6 head unit
- Supported NBT EVO software version
- Apple CarPlay Fullscreen must already be activated
- ENET cable
- Windows or macOS computer
How activation works
- Connect the computer to the vehicle using an ENET cable.
- Launch the supplied activation application.
- Enter or apply the activation code supplied with the order.
- Complete the activation procedure following the supplied instructions.
- Restart the head unit if requested by the application.
The activation process is designed to be straightforward and does not
normally require E-Sys, manual FSC import or advanced coding procedures.
Before ordering
Check the installed NBT EVO software version before purchasing. Android Auto
support depends on the exact software version currently installed in the
head unit.
Software versions listed as Not supported cannot be
activated using this product. Versions listed as
Not tested yet should be confirmed before ordering.
Important compatibility notice
This product is intended for NBT EVO ID5/ID6 systems only.
NBT EVO ID4 software versions are not supported by this activation.
Apple CarPlay Fullscreen must already be working correctly before Android
Auto activation is performed.
Compatibility is determined by the actual head-unit software version rather
than vehicle model, chassis or production year alone.
