I have trouble getting the 1B file.
I have tried two different USB-sticks both formated as FAT32. I left the USB-stick in for 30sec to 10 minutes, but no luck. I think I have tried 20 times. When I insert the USB, the USB-stick start flashing for about 3sec. I know the car is able to read the USB drive, cause when I but the USB-stick with the map on it into the slot, the car whants to update the map. My car is 2010(july) e92 320 x-drive cd with navi-pro and the latest map update is from 2009. EDIT: When I pluged my USB-stick into my mac, I discovered that it had 2 partition (only one where visible in windows) To delete the second partition I followed this: Make sure that you are not deleting any partitions on you PC! https://www.easeus.com/partition-mas...partition.html except the "set-ID" in step 2. After this I formatet the USB to FAT32 again and it was able to pull the 1b.file Last edited by MasterOfDisaster; 01-22-2019 at 05:06 PM.. |

I was able to pull the 1b file after a couple tries, but it appeared to give me a 1234567 VIN, which resulted in unsuccessful FSC generations.
For $10 I snagged a FSC off eBay and it worked beautifully. 2010, CIC, NA Premium (upgraded to 2019) via usb |

This might be a stupid question, and apologies if it was asked already, but during the 1 hour or so the map file takes to load, can the car be driven, or does it have to be in Park?

Suggestions for Script Coding Updates
Quote:
Is it possible to update the script (copie_scr.sh) used to create the "1b.hex" file to take into account (what I call) the 'generic VIN anomaly' that appears to impact most E9x CIC cars built prior to 2010? The 'generic VIN anomaly' is where the generated "1b.hex" file contains an incorrect generic VIN of "1234567". It's an anomaly in the sense that although the correct VIN/navigation data exists in the system, it's obscured by the presence of one or more instances of generic VIN data. Alternatively, is it possible to make "copie_scr.sh" source available so that others may attempt to make the coding changes? Thanks Suggestions for Script Coding Updates Option 1: If VIN=1234567, then keep searching until a non-1234567 VIN is found. Create "1b.hex" file from the non generic VIN. Member danielz made a similar suggestion below: https://www.e90post.com/forums/showp...&postcount=218 Option 2: If VIN=1234567, then copy the file "generalPersistencyData_DiagnosticSWTControlle r" to the USB instead of creating "1b.hex". This file will allow the owner to manually parse it and create their own 1b.hex file as per https://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1154524 (without having to buy an ENET cable to use with a computer). Member vox_de_hg explains how they had to manually create their 1b.hex file from "generalPersistencyData_DiagnosticSWTControlle r" (after retrieving the file using an ENET cable): https://www.e90post.com/forums/showp...5&postcount=90 Background Info My 330d E90 LCI with CIC has a production date of 2009-09-25. After inserting the USB into the glove box, the script successfully created 2 new files on the USB (1b.hex & fsc.bat). See attached ZIP below. In my case, the "1b.hex" file contains the generic VIN of "1234567" which generated an invalid FSC code (that failed to activate). It should also be noted that the contents of my "1b.hex" file are identical to those of other members who have attached their "1b.hex" to comments in this thread. 3 members who have attached their 1b.hex file (showing identical content): https://www.e90post.com/forums/showp...0&postcount=28 https://www.e90post.com/forums/showp...&postcount=256 https://www.e90post.com/forums/showp...&postcount=303 Other members who have reported a VIN of 1234567 (without attaching their file): https://www.e90post.com/forums/showp...&postcount=218 https://www.e90post.com/forums/showp...&postcount=308 https://www.e90post.com/forums/showp...&postcount=312 Other Observations 1. According to member comments, the 'generic VIN anomaly' appears to impact most 3er E9x CIC cars built between September 2008 and December 2009 (CIC was introduced in September 2008 with option 609 Professional Navigation for 1, 3 & 7 Series cars). 2. E9x CIC cars built in the same period but which have had a firmware upgrade, seem to generate a valid 1b.hex file with correct details. Last edited by bcoz; 02-27-2019 at 01:52 AM.. |

Hi at all,
after many hours, i have solved the USB stick problem. At the first download of the "b1.zip", the file contains a folder with name "b1". Into the folder are a sample "b1.hex" file and "fsc.bat" I was unzipped the b1.zip to diverse USB sticks, FAT32, FAT16, NTFS, 2GB, 4GB, 8GB..., nothing works. I was thinked, i am too stupid. Into the thread, i saw files ("copie_scr.sh" and "instructions.txt") that are not into the b1.zip file that i was downloaded. I was downloaded the "b1.zip" file again, now it contains the right files!!! The right b1.zip filesize is 30kb, the false b1.zip filesize is 1kb. After the right download, all tested USB sticks were worked fine. The FSC generator works fine, the FSC works fine, now the maps are updating I had buyed a map stick at a BMW dealer in Germany |

Hello John, thank you for your suggestions and I apologize for being inactive and not posting in a very long time but unfortunately I'm super busy and hardly have time for anything. As pointed out by you the vin anomaly seems to affect most e9x 3ers built between sep. 2008 - end of 2009 running on old firmware and in some rare instances those who didn't format their usb drives using fat32 . If your car has undergone the big BMW upgrade you should be fine and can proceed to pull the 1b file using your usb plug in your glove compartment. Alternatively you can also do the firmware upgrade yourself if you have the files at hand. For those who didn't have their vehicle upgraded there might be a work around. Unfortunately I don't have the original source code anymore as the file was created a couple of years ago but one of my employees still might have it. However one of my guys who also happens to be the author of the CIC script activation tool (he goes by the name of Pierre and he used to be active on some forums (bimmerposts, cartechnology and some others) but he's now a Mercedes guy) provided me with source code of the CIC script activator which you can also slightly modify and use for pulling the 1b file from your car (as you can see it's pretty straightforward php code) plus the actual shell script. _enabler is the shell script which creates the actual .swt files When modifying the script you would go with option 2, that is you would pull the file "generalPersistencyData_DiagnosticSWTControlle r" and manually parse it to create your 1b file with your correct vin. You can do a lot of things with the script activation stuff and with a little modifying you can enable other functions, pull the DE file (required for nbt navis to create fsc codes) and some other nice things. We might create a new file ourselves and provide it here but we barely have time for anything and we're already short on manpower. All the best to you guys and take care, Christopher |

Make sure the file "copie_scr.sh" is on the USB stick.
After the navigation system has started completely, put the USB stick in the USB port in the glove box, then wait for about 3 minutes (30 seconds may not be long enough for some cars, especially if the navigation system is still starting). After about 3 minutes, turn the car OFF then remove the USB stick. |

problem generic VIN "1234567"
I own an E90 from 01/09/2009. So, I get a 1b.hex file extracted with a bad VIN "1234567" by the method "copy_scr.sh". How to extract the correct file 1b.hex? I do not expect to update the CIC for cost reasons because ISTA/P, ICOM A, ICOM B and stabilized power supply are required. Therefore I will update the map by DVD burned by me. I understand that the SWID_reader was not compatible with the DCAN interface but that it needed the ENET interface. But the ENET inerface would be reserved for the Fxx series and not the Exx.
So which interface? And what software does it take to extract the correct 1b.hex file in my case? Thanks in advance. Last edited by onclesam1979; 03-08-2019 at 08:44 AM.. |

Can I update to 2019 map? If not, what is that most current map update I can do? Last edited by gsl521628; 03-10-2019 at 01:40 PM.. Reason: Forgot to add my VIN |
