Last OTA

I seen many issues on here about the OTA. I had my share and was on phone since day one with BMW Genius
I posted last email they sent me with instructions.
I did the instructions 100% even used timer when suggested 70 seconds

I haven’t had any issue since
Find my post try it. May it be useful as it was for me.
I tried lot of things prior to trying it. Even reset BMWid. Reset all data on car. Nothing help until those instructions

Please make sure vehicle is outside with a great cellular reception before performing the steps below.

Hold the power button down for 70 seconds exactly. (The volume knob is the iDrive power button)

Then, we recommend performing an Update Services in your vehicle to refresh the connection. This can be done by following the steps below:

MENU
All apps
System settings
Update apps and services
Search for updates"
Follow the instructions on the Control Display.
Once the update completes, we recommend shutting the vehicle off and locking doors allowing 30 minutes before restarting the vehicle to check the connection. This may have to be done twice. Please uninstall/reinstall the MYBMW APP.

Then, please ensure Data Privacy settings are enabled. See steps below:
"MENU" >> "Vehicle apps" >> "System settings" >> "Data privacy" >> Agree and activate all.
