What have you coded with Carly

In addition to some of the things mentioned I've coded the internal light to dim a lot quicker. This is the internal light which illuminates when you turn the car off.
And I think I also coded the panic alarm? That was just for fun!
I also disabled the unlock of the car from inside. i.e. If you've got the roof down you can't lean in and unlock the car. At least that's the theory. Can't remember too much as I did them all so long ago!
Great for diagnostics as well!

I have the Samsung S7 edge and use the micro USB adapter that came with that to connect it to my B Cables silver cable. So you should be fine I think.
I got Carly after seeing it in action at Mike's (Ducklakeview's). I though that's a damn sight quicker than ISTA D/P on a laptop and also easier than INPA. However for fault code diagnostics I still use the laptop based stuff as Carly wasn't able to read properly some codes in mine. For example I needed a new front light level sensor, ISTA/INPA read the code no trouble, but Carly didn't. It told me if found the a code but couldn't recognise it.
Also the Carly option for DLR's basically has the lights on no matter what position the light switch is in (including off). Where as the ISTA P version just has DLR's on the dip/normal beam position with off still being off. That said when I went back in with Carly after activating with ISTA P it did show DLR's 2/2 active but 1/2 inactive, despite Carly saying you must select both, so maybe that's the trick to it and it may be worth experimenting with other options that also say you must have certain other things ticked just to see what happens.
I did the same as Mike, (removed the ones I didn't do):
Coded DRL's, but as the halos are wired to the sidelights I can't see any way to get them turn off when the headlights come on.
Didn't code foglights to high beams as it's illegal here (and why would you want them on with the high beams anyway? Are the high beams that bad they need help from the fogs?? :?).
Also used the app to check and clear the ABS/DSC error codes after getting the pump repaired.
Very handy bit of software and worth the price I reckon. Added bonus is you can program other BMW's with it, so you can share the coding/diagnostics love with your neighborhood BMW friends
Disabled the annoying 'reminder' that goes off if you open the driver's door with the keys off but still in the ignition. Meant to stop you leaving the keys in the car and walking away, but just makes it sound like every Jap import I've ever owned.Ducklakeview said:

Laws appear to date back from 1989 so I'd think as long as they are red and the rear lights still work independent of braking you'll be fine!

All I've coded on my Coupe is the boot now unlocks on first push of button with no delay and the windows work without keys in ignition and continue after you open the door... coding angel eyes as DRL's is pretty cool looking if you have angels! I don't... :?

Coding options which I've done (in addition to Mikes list). No particular order.
1. Number until headlight cleaning - 9th interval
Clean the car frequently anyway and just ends up using up my washer fluid!
2. Comfort open using remote
Windows go down on fob unlock (and hold)
3. Comfort close using remote
Windows close on fob lock (and hold)
4. Automatically lock vehicle
If I've unlocked the car by mistake and not opened a door the car locks itself again after about a minute
Played around with brake force in Carly but never got it to work, let me know if you've done it!
Oh and [ref]Jingle[/ref] coded my rear donut brake lights

Hi all,
I can't manage to get number 6 working. The fogs with high beam.
I managed to get them to turn off with high beams but not to come on.
The option within carley is called 'front fog lights with high beams' which sounds like the right place to be. But in the description it says 'front fogs are automatically turned off when activating high beams'
Am I looking in the wrong place?
Cheers,
Ok, thanks.
