If you have c13-c16 you dont need the patch but you also dont have the latest features.
The FSC methods prescribed above are only for maps and aren't for apps.
I dont think live or internet works anymore (at least not for me) it stopped a while back
Youd probably be better off finding someone local who can flash it with ISTA or going to the dealership. Local guys have gotten software updates for around $200 from the dealership thats probably going to be cheaper than doing an exchange. $200 sounds pretty fair given that these units can be flakey and brick in rare cases.

What features are you missing out on? I tried BMW internet and got it to load google.com, but the SSL certificates in the browser are all expired so no sites that use SSL work (a ton of sites on the internet use SSL so bascially half the net doesnt work.) It was also slow to load BMW internet and clunky as hell to navigate. BMW live i was only able to get it load the local weather, nothing else seemed to work and the login process didn't seem to work for me.
