I was told I needed to use WebTorrent to download the Torrent file.

I simply saved the Torrent file which took like 10 sec to my desktop then dragged it to the WebTorrent. It has been 48 hours.

Seems to be super slow but once more people join since or peer to peer or speed up a little bit.

However I am still not half way. Weekend is over now so can wait till next weekend and let it finish.

I have no idea where they are downloading to.
I assume my computer or somewhere I can drag it to my desktop to once it's finished.

I will unpack the files with WinRAR once this finishes one day.

My download speed is 250Mpbs is 250. Far from slow.

It's not me and yeah this has been probably the most difficult and frustrating thing.

At this point I don't care how much it costs from BMW. I will never waste a weekend doing this again.

I definitely want to know what everyone else uses to Download the maps to their computers.

This WebTorrent is garbage or it's the fact that no one is downloading it to help speed up the process. I don't know and haven't got much help. Definitely isn't as easy as people make or sound on here if this is what they go through.

From your screenshot, downloading is 25% complete and there are only 3 peers currently seeding the download. Effective download speed is 36 KB/s (Kilo Bytes) which is 288 Kb/s (Kilo bits) which is super super slow (less than 1 Mbps).

You can't do much about the speed of the peers, so I'd let it run until it completes (however, long it takes).

Gotcha. Just bad luck I guess. The whole first day was like 6-9 with only 1 peer. I guess everyone already has the 2019 maps or it's a timing thing lol

Hi,

Someone know what I am doing wrong?
I have tried 3 pendrives all of them formated to FAT32, copied copie_scr.sh only, tried the written method: started the car, waited 1-5-15 min, stopped the car and the hex file still not there.
The car parameters:
2010 X1
ECE
101092011.0.11
Road map europe motion 2010

Regards,
Laszlo

You're plugging it into the USB port in the glove box?

I have also tested the glove box usb port with the map update, it works as it saw the update and asked for the key.

Thanks ! Worked like a charm

Hello, thanks for this amazing thread: worked like a charm on my X1 35i 2014 that had the NA Premium 2014 maps. Updated to 2019 Premium Maps in one hour. The only caviar is that the USB stick must be formatted in FAT32, MBR partition (on a MAC, you have the choice in between GUID, MBR and a third one). Apart from that: everything runs smooth
Thanks again !

Hi, I have a bmw f31 with move navigator. I have problems with recovering the 1b file. Does the USB stick go into the socket under the armrest?
Thanks

Hello,
I have a BMW E91 made in 2010/03 with factory Motion 2010 map on it.
The copie_scr.sh script not worked so I used an ENET cable to extract the generalPersistencyData_DiagnosticSWTController file and converted it to a FSC code.
I plugged in the flash drive with the map, the car recognizes the map update USB flash drive, it asks the FSC code, but when I enter it nothing happens, the window not appear where it appears the percentage of installation.
What am I making wrong and what can be the solution?
Thanks in advance!

Tnx!!! Worked like a charme on my F11 from 2012. What I did wrong the first attempt was: I inserted the USB prior to firing up the ignition -> what worked: just start op the car (no engine running) -> wait for 30-60 seconds -> then put in the USB in the glove compartiment -> wait for some time (again 30-60 seconds) and this resulted in a perfect 1b.hex file. Just updated to Road Map Premium West Europe 2019-2!

Greetz,

"As correctly pointed out above by user Opjose pulling the 1b file via usb stick is limited to cars equipped with a CIC unit and since you have an NBT navigation unit you'll have to follow a different approach (that is you want to get your "DE" file as opposed to 1b which is for CIC units only)."

Ok thank you for the information. Could you point me to right direction on how to update on NBTevo unit maps?
