HU_NBT_EVO > HMI 3000 > OFFICE_MENUS_ACTIVE = aktiv
HU_NBT_EVO > TELEFON_TELEMATIK_ONLINE 3003 > BLUETOOTH_2ND_HFP = aktiv
HU_NBT_EVO > TELEFON_TELEMATIK_ONLINE 3003 > CONTACT_BOOK_PICTURES = aktiv
HU_NBT_EVO > TELEFON_TELEMATIK_ONLINE 3003 > PIM_NEW_ELEMENT_AUDIO_NOTE = aktiv
HU_NBT_EVO > TELEFON_TELEMATIK_ONLINE 3003 > PIM_NEW_ELEMENT_VOICE_EMAIL = aktiv
HU_NBT_EVO > TELEFON_TELEMATIK_ONLINE 3003 > TWO_PHONES_PARALLEL = aktiv

Office Menu Active makes sense to have active.
I only have one microphone in cabin so not sure about mic number.
Bluetooth 2nd Hand Free Phone, I want that active.
Two phones parallel is probably part of pairing two phones, so active.
Contact book pictures, sure.
Curious to know what the PIM_NEW_ELEMENT values do, SMS is not active by default.

We will have to wait and see if this works though because I was using an older VGate adapter and I was getting write errors and then I got an error in the headunit that bimmercode wanted to restore but couldn't write back over my adapter. So, I got another adapter on order.

I was able to recover the head unit with Bimmercode when I got a new adapter.
Lost my navigation activation in the process, though.

I have an office menu and messages in iDrive, now. What was recommended in this thread helped and worked. It is not working as expected but that might be by design. I want to receive new messages while I am driving so I don't have to fish my phone out of my pocket while driving. I might try some different settings to see if I can get new alerts and not just a sync.

Check to see if "Office Menu" is active in HMI 3000

I did. It is. I realized that it's not a standalone menu item (at least on mine). Messages, emails, tasks and all appeared below bmw messages after I re-paired the phone. Let me know if it's not supposed to be this way.
There was one coding line for WLAN Diagnostics that was shown aktiv but on your coding list not aktiv. I did not disable it. Any ideas what it does?
Thanks again

So does doing this solve being able to receive navigation directions from the ConnectedDrive app on the phone? I can use all of the other features on the CD app like unlock/lock doors, horn, locate car, etc, but cannot get the car to receive directions from the app. I also do not have the Office menu/I have option 6NH and not 6NS.

My friend's 2014 X3 has this and can see text messages and emails from the phone on the iDrive controller.

I have my own seo company and using the office setting would be very helpful for reading emails on the go. SEO software is no longer just an additional tool that you can use. It's an effective way to automate processes, save time, get the most out of your strategy, and maximize your efforts. More info you can find at this article

I've messed with literally every setting in the car; bluetooth, phone config, etc etc. No office option. Any ideas ?
Thanks a lot for info!
