3 series xdrive coupe I had got my old aux cord out because I was annoyed the audio wasn’t working telephone worked but it didn’t show my phone was connected and than Wow it was absolutely the reason ! Removed emoji from my name and BAM! Thankkk youuuu ! 🙏🏾💋💕🥳💯🗣💫 I can use emojis here 🤣
Thank you so much. I’ve been driving in silence when u drive my moms x6 for about 8 months because the Bluetooth glitched out and I refuse to listen to the radio. I still can’t believe it stopped working because I had an emoji in my iPhones name. Thank you so much man.
For those of you who this didn't work for (depending on what your circumstances are) I messed mine up by playing a DVD. Idk why it messed it up but it did. Like it got stuck in DVD mode even with no disc. When I hit the media button it would just show "unknown track" "unknown album", no options for audio source like before. I put a CD in and it switch to CD player mode. I eject the CD and the audio options came back. I selected Bluetooth and my phone works again. 🙂 I hope this helps someone someday.
@@5hawnn Ohh man, sorry to hear. Have you tried the mode button on the steering wheel? It's another way to switch modes that not a lot of people use. Maybe look into updating the idrive system it's self. Could fix your issue.
lmaooo i just got an m3 and i've been so pissed trying to connect bluetooth the past few days... it was just the emoji in my phone name, and now it works perfect. thanks haha
MY FIX!: you need to get the device that had the emoji and try to pair it again after you changed the name to get rid of the emoji. You obviously can’t see the devices list so just try to pair as a new device, and it will solve the problem!! Make sure however that you remove the device after this because sometimes sometimes the car stores the old name of the device after you disconnect, and thus tries to display it, which is what messes it up
Hey i wanna check with you guus. I am facing the exact same issues with you. 2012 335i. But sadly this is a 2nd hand car and its been thru like a few owners so i can possibly go back and find them to change their profile name. Is there anyway to delete all paired device like a factory setting? Thanks in advance
Is your iDrive up to date on your 320? You can go into your iDrive about section and see firmware version, then go onto BMWs website and compare it to the most recent firmware version
I fixed my Android Bluetooth issues by changing the Bluetooth AVRCP settings on my phone from version 1.5 to 1.3 (Google how to do it). I have a new Android, but an older 2016 BMW with iDrive 4 NBT. The issue I had was with music playing cutting out and track info not displaying, and I was considering spending a bunch of money to upgrade the whole iDrive. I hope this helps someone looking!
I have had the same problem with my BMW Bluetooth connection for over 2 years now. My iPhone name had an emoji in it. I removed the emoji and re-added my device and now it’s working perfectly 😍😍💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾🎉. Thank you so much ❤️🇿🇲
InnerCircleBabii no. The navigation was an upgrade option. You can pay someone directly to flash yours but it’s quite expensive. However if you’re referring to just a normal system update...yes you can
Bluetooth BMW (pairing iPhone) Go into settings in BMW to Telephone and then add Phone (must have Bluetooth on in iphone) In the My Devices in iPhone under Bluetooth you will see BMW 56786 (number will vary for reach car) so touch it to activate A number will be pop up on car video screen, enter the numbers 56786 (same number for you car) as you turn the wheel, then hit Okay, Soon after a box will open on your iphone in the Bluetooth area, enter the numbers 56786 (number for your car that will be different) in your iphone and then click on Pair on your iphone, then should connect your iphone to the car. This must been done fast otherwise will time out.
Thank you for explaining the process of how the phones connect. This is indeed how the process works. However, even after this process the phone doesn't actually connect to the car
I have the same problem, i connect my phone, telephone and bluetooth audio, and when i press the phone button on my steering wheel, it’s says that there is no entry, and when i’m playing music, the music plays, but it doesn’t show the music photo, i can’t skip the song etc. I read the description from the video, and i don’t have any emoji in my name, and i didn’t before, it worked and i don’t know what to do, even when i plug in the usb from my iPhone. Any ideeas?
Salut! Ai găsit vre-o rezolvare ? Am aceeași problema ca tine, reușesc sa împerechez telefonul , dar la rubrica telephone din navigație imi apare add new device , ca și cum nu exista nici in telefon salvat , dacă apăs butonul de pe volan la fel ma duce acolo și nu-l arată conectat , dar dacă inițiez apelul de pe telefon se aude pe mașina , cu vechiul telefon android mergea și muzica și apelurile , dar tot asa nu mi-l arată salvat in telephone , acum pe iPhone merg doar apelurile Ai rezolvat cumva problema? ca nu am nici un emoji la numele telefonului
I bought a used BMW X5 2012 E70 CIC unit and I am having exact same issue with my iphone pairing, there is no old paired bluetooth phones. Additionally I reset my phone network setting and updated iPhone ios still no luck. I do not have access to any old device used earlier on this car. What best can you suggest ?
@@ezekielcoria7653, yes- My car does only have the basic bluetooth option which has the audio. For enhanced bluetooth that supports music, the car needs a commbox & it is not there.
Guys please help! My bluetooth was working fine, but then one day when I wanted to add a new device it would not show the bmw identification number, then I pressed the add new device several times and the identification number showed for a split second and then disappeared. (It glitched) When I pressed it one more it did not show the id number for bluetooth. From then I can not find the solution, so please if you had this problem help!!
BTYL Jr Yes. One of the phones connected had an Emoji in the phone (device) name. Changed the device name in the phone settings. Deleted all the devices from the idrive system. Disconnected the battery, waited 60 seconds. Reconnected the battery, and restarted the idrive system.
okay but what happens if you no longer have access to the phone with the emoji in the name? same thing is happening to me, but my car was used, so i dont have the original devices
nikolethegreat You should try taking your current phone and renaming it to the emoji phone name and try to connect it. Once it connects, disconnect. Rename your phone and connect again.
GUYS I FIXED IT - I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM on my X5 40d 2013 - What worked for me was following -> 1. Even though bmw.com/update said I was on the latest Multimedia version I download UPD01008 (found it here www.xbimmers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1598700) and installed it via the USB so i went from Multimedia: MX-003.004.031 Telephone: TX-003.004.031 to Multimedia: MX-003.005.004 Telephone: TX-003.005.008 this at first only solved a previous problem of not seeing the title and artist name of a song in "external devices" but the pairing problem still persisted 2. I took the Iphone from my sister ( I think Iphone 10 ) which was once connected a long time ago but not the problem cause but STILL immediately after I connected it I saw my old paired devices in the list and after that everything worked fine also with my samsung ( A9 & Note 9 ). I was having this problem for a long time now and often read about the "emoji" problem that if you try to connect a user with an emoticon in his name (not possible on android ) the bmw system somehow fucks up after that, I had a moment where i wanted to connect a friend with an iphone but it didnt worked I dont know if he had such an emoji in his device name or not and if this was the root of the problem but at the end I think this pairing problem stems from somehow connecting an IPhone ( maybe a special model ) to your bmw in an unlucky situation ( all slots full, pressing something idk ). So if you once connected a Iphone to your car try to connect it again....if you cant get to this specific iphone anymore try to get ANY iphone. I hope this can help someone else as well, im so happy that I came here to write this long ass text haha peace

Hey I have the same car but I cannot connect Bluetooth other than with my phone calls..I have no option to turn on my audio can you help me ?

Dakoyta Parris my main menu doesn’t have navigation like yours .. can it be updated ?

What do you mean by disconnecting the battery??
Bluetooth BMW (pairing iPhone)
Go into settings in BMW to Telephone and then add Phone (must have Bluetooth on in iphone)

A number will be pop up on car video screen, enter the numbers 56786 (same number for you car) as you turn the wheel, then hit Okay,
Soon after a box will open on your iphone in the Bluetooth area, enter the numbers 56786 (number for your car that will be different) in your iphone and then click on Pair on your iphone, then should connect your iphone to the car.
This must been done fast otherwise will time out.

How do I get my 2013 to connect to Bluetooth for music it only connects to Bluetooth for phone calls
I can’t remember exactly. I no longer have the car. I think once it’s connected you hit options and select media on it.
The Audio sign dont evne show om nu screen
Under CD/Multimedia- I see only USB Symbol - not connected, Aux Front! I don’t get any option like you!
