I Need to enable usb in e91 ccc idrive

I have a 2006 e91 with CCC Idrive. build date 12/05

I installed a new mulf 2 svs high as my old mulf was dead and retrofitted the new USB/AUX port in the center console as i hoped to get my usb pendrive with my music on to work as i have a single dvd drive.

I already had just the aux port but removed it and installed USB/AUX unit.

I added changed date in vo to 1207 and added $6FL to my CAS and NFRM. Wrote blank man files to my 2MULF, Cas and Mask/CCC.

My bluetooth is now working 100% and all usb options in the mulf2 are aktive and the usb lead from the mulf2 to the usb socket works fine it charges my phone just dont appear in the iDrive

Now my problem is that the USB option does not come up anywhere in the idrive i think it should appear next to aux which is working.

I checked and the cars without Idrive that have the RAD2 module and are as easy to configure as setting the USB option to ON in the RAD2.

But nowhere can I find the correct option/combination to enable the USB to display in the business Idrive.

I have the Business ccc idrive with one dvd slot I guess this needs a firmware update via optical connection.

Any ideas thanks in advance and i would travel to get the ccc/mask radio updated for beer money if thats what i need to get usb working.

My mask unit is a early one and i was reading there is no usb on that year? 12/2005 so its looking like firmware update time.

I am no expert on the idrive or coding but when people change to hi
fi there are 4 or 5 files that have to be changed for the idrive instead of the one
file for the pro radio.

so I removed the $676 from VO from CAS, I recoded without the .MAN, so basically I restored it to stereo.

Then I re-added $676 to CAS and FRM (with FW_WRITE), and then (recoded the CAPPL/CTUNE/CGATE/CAUDI with default.)

This is to point out
recoded the CAPPL/CTUNE/CGATE/CAUDI
chances are if you were to look into these files you would
find a line that say USB nicht activ somewhere. becareful of the spelling
of nicht activ not sure if its right but all you have to do is remove nicht.

Thanks for your post
Unfortunatly I have no CAPPL or CCC Module.
I think the Navi Business only has M-ASK/CCC module
EU countries offer a M-ASK/CCC with nav that utilizes the smaller screen. SA606 is Navigation Low thats what i have so i have none of the below modules mayby its hidden elsewhere?
CHOST
CAPPL
CGATE
CAUDI
CTUNE

Have you tried reading the parameters in the two files that relate
to the idrive you have looking for something that says usb.
in
MASK and Most Gateway.

Maybe the business model idrive is not capable of usb.

maybe one of these as an alternative

you probably need to try to upgrade software in M-ASK, or buy used M-ASK II headunit and replace yours
you can distinguish it by front panel with direct access buttons
CCC units provided more flexibility, even in 2005 unit software can be upgraded to 2008 level
