FSC for Navigation map updates
Updating your BMW navigation maps is essential if you want to drive safely. If your vehicle doesn’t have a valid subscription for navigation maps, you require a special code (FSC) in order to activate the map data.
Typo in the video around 1 minute in - I ended up demonstrating new install and code generation.This video demonstrates how to use FSC tool generator to gene. Open BMWFSCNBTGenerator.exe Click 'Browse' and select the XXXXXXX000DE001.FSC file you generated in step 3, it should be in your tools directory. Choose your map product from the list (For me it was 'Road Map EUROPE NEXT 20151). You would need to obtain a 6F Sat Radio FSC Code issued by BMW AG for your VIN, then modify FA from 693 Satellite Radio Preparation to 655 Satellite Tuner, and then code car. BTW, thanx for the link to Gerry, the map update to 2015 went smooth and I notice the difference from the 2011 maps that came in my X5. 1.Unpack the ZIP file (bmwcicfscgenerator.zip) in Windows (after unpacking wait for a couple of seconds for the generator to automatically download the file Lookup.xml”) 2.Open the FSC generator by clicking on “BMWCICFSCGenerator.exe” and select the.
Please note, you’ll have to upload proper map data for navigation system by yourself (we don’t provide map data).
FSC (Freischaltcode) is the activation code released by BMW. This activation code is always a 20-position combination of characters, which is usually entered manually via the iDrive controller. The code only contains capital letters (A – Z) and digits (2 – 7). The activation code does not contain the digits “0” and “1” in order to prevent confusion with the letters “O” and “I”.
Each code is specially based on VIN for each single car. The code can not use with multiple cars.
Lifetime codes mean that once you bought this code from us, you will never have to buy another code again when upgrading in the future.
The car’s vehicle identification number (VIN) is the identifying code for a SPECIFIC automobile. The VIN serves as the car’s fingerprint, as no two vehicles in operation have the same VIN. A VIN is composed of 17 characters (digits and capital letters) that act as a unique identifier for the vehicle. A VIN displays the car’s unique features, specifications and manufacturer. The VIN can be used to track recalls, registrations, warranty claims, thefts and insurance coverage.
Your vehicle identification number is listed in several locations on your BMW. The most common places to check are:
The inside frame/panel of your front door (usually driver’s side)
On the dash near the windshield
On your BMW’s insurance or registration

FAQ
Where is the USB interface port in my car? The USB interface port required for the map update can be found in the glove compartment. If there be no USB interface port in the glove compartment, please use the USB interface port in the center console or in the storage compartment in the center armrest.
Will any data that has already been transferred be lost if I stop during the journey? No. When you continue your journey after a stop, updating automatically resumes (assuming the USB stick is still connected).
The update does not work! Check for the following possible errors: • If the vehicle identification number (VIN) on the BMW Navigation Certificate (FSC) match the VIN of your vehicle? (This can be found in your registration document) • Did you avoid entering zeros and ones when typing in the activation code? (Danger of confusion with “I” and “O”).
Forget about emulators, script activations, hard map updates...

CiC Read code 1B with USB
BMW FSC / IBAC Generator v1.0.1.2.
Latest Lookup.xml included.
This is patcher for BMW CIC Professional Navigation, it patches binary file and replaces root certificate what enables you to sign your own FSC certificates from within FSTOOL or E-SYS like OEM. After patching, Self-generated certificates will be accepted as OEM ones.
This is ONLY for US (United States) and ECE (Central Europe) software versions!
You should update your CIC software to the latest before applying the patch!
Unlike other patches floating around, this one is done in 10 seconds or less. There is no need.
For multiple reboots, or hang in 'Bootloader' mode which exposes the system to bricking or failure.
HOW TO USE IT
Format the USB drive with a FAT32 file system
Copy file 01_PATCHERUSB_AUTORUNcopie_scr.sh to empty USB drive
Insert the USB drive into CIC, wait until reboot and you're done! (if CIC will not reboot in 20 seconds, it means that there is software incompatibility or already patched, read pre-requests).
After CIC has been patched and it restarted you can fire-up E-SYS or FSTOOL. If you go ahead and check the status of FSC you will see that CIC has been virgins and only root certificate is accepted. Key you should use for signing FSC certificates is 00_PRIVATEKEYSfscs.der other two private keys (root.der and sigs.der) you will have no use for, they are included just so the cert chain is complete.
To make certificates for your VIN you can use files in folder 03_FSC_TEMPLATES from the archive,
Load them in E-SYS (FSC Editor) or FSTOOL, change ONLY VIN, sign them and save as.
** VERY IMPORTANT: If you do not know what you are doing when modifying template certificates, change only VIN to match yours, do not edit other fields including date of issue.
After making all certificates you will need for your retrofit you can install them normally via FSTOOL or ESYS, other needed certificates as SIGs and FSCs cert you can find in folder 02_CERTS from this archive.
PLEASE NOTE, AFTER PATCHING CIC IS VIRGINIZED AND MAY SHOW THAT FSCS AND SIG CERTS ARE REJECTED, AND ROOT ACCEPTED. THIS IS NOT A PROBLEM AS YOU WILL OVERWRITE IT WITH PROVIDED CERTS VIA FSTOOL OR E-SYS. 0017 - Voice control 0019 - Navigation system Professional 001B - Navigation system Professional 00XX - LifeTime Map Code 006F – Satellite Tuner 009B – Arabian Language 009C - BMW Apps Full set for BMW CIC. for E-Series: use FSTOOL for F-Series: use E-SYS same procedure as with OEM certificates.

Follow next steps to calculate your FSC code for CIC Navigation updates
1. Unpack the ZIP file to the root of an empty USB stick
2. Power on your car and wait until the navigation system has started completely
3. Put the USB stick in the USB port in the glove box
5. Remove the USB stick and put it in your (Windows) computer
6. Check if the file 1b.hex is present on the USB stick (if not go to step 2 and try another USB stick)
7. edit fsc.bat and update the year code (when needed)
9. a file 'code.txt' is created which contains the FSC code for your car!
10. for next year updates, just update fsc.bat with new year code and run fsc.bat again. BMW CIC Activate Internet for FREE You will need donor VIN's from another country not of yours.
Add 614, 615, 6AL to VO
Set TELEMATIK_VIN = CODING_VIN
Write Magic VIN to Combox
Update BMW Services (BMW Live and Internet should work afterwards)
Return TELEMATIK_VIN = MOST_VIN
DO NOT Update BMW Services again.
The 'magic VIN' is needed one time only after initial coding to Update BMW Services. After that, TELEMATIK_VIN should be set back to MOST_VIN, as if the car goes in for programming with 'magic VIN', ISTA/P will choke. Do not Update BMW Services again after returning the car to factory VIN. HOW TO: activating internet service Combox/CIC (Internet via Customer Mobile Phone) Here is a short description of what you need to do to activate the Internet in your BMW car. This information is absolutely free, so there is no need to pay anyone for this 'TOP-SECRET' internet activation procedure!! There might be other ways to activate internet or maybe I did some steps which are useless, however, this way it worked for me, maybe you can refine the procedure here so you have the exact steps. Activation internet for Combox should also work for older software versions, so try it out and see what happens. Keep in mind that you will lose assist related services if you activate 'Internet over customer mobile phone', which makes sense because BMW has its own internet flat rate for assist customers in his portfolio. You will need for activation: • Tool32 • NCSexpert

• Suitable VIN (eg from eBay or your local BMW dealer) • Internet-capable phone, able to share an internet connection over Bluetooth (e.g. iPhone with tethering activated). If your provider blocks tethering, enable it with tools like there from Cydia store... The idea is to let the BMW servers think, that your Combox is in a BMW, which is built for a country where assist service is not mandatory for internet access. You can analyze the BMW.com homepages connected drive section to see what services are available for what country. I don't have the URL handy so maybe someone who knows can post it here. Keep in mind that COMBOX with internet was not built for the car from 1999 so look for the right models/makes/years! All cars with Combox which are built for the US-Market are okay for this. eBay or your local US BMW dealer is a good source to get the VIN you require. You can use this VIN also in a county where Internet without assist is not allowed E.G. Germany. Theoretically, a customer could have bought his car in the USA and they could have travelled to Germany and could use internet service there... Here is what you have to do, to get internet running:
First, remove assist related services from your CIC and recode CIC with NCSExpert. You might want to use this well known .ssd file with the option $612 removed.
Once CIC is coded properly, with tool32 write a suitable VIN into the Combox. CMEDIAR.prg is the right ECU for that. I changed the VIN at 2 places in Combox.
FG_schreiben and something below which is also VIN writing related.
To make sure the related VIN is set properly in all involved ECUs I also coded the VIN into CIC (CICR.prg) same place FG_schreiben and the one below. It might be that you do not need to do this for CIC.
After coding that enables iPhone tethering function.
Go to connected drive or BMW online menu and chose to update BMW-Services. It now should make an online update of available services. Your iPhone begins to blink blue (tethering)
After the services are updated and if your Combox VIN is in white-list or is not blacklisted the internet will work.
Make sure the VIN you code (and you need to get) is full length plus a digit (for checking the sum), however, any digit will do...
Use the below to find a suitable VIN, use your last 7 digits, then increment them to find other cars with the correct 614 and 615 options
Mini guide on how to extract your DE (NBT) or 1B (CIC) file, generate the FSC code.
Prerequisites: ESYS ENET Cable PSDZData Lite (lite version is fine for FDL coding, you only need the full package if you want to flash ECUs) Token (not required to reach FSC Extended) CIC PREMIUM Maps or NBT NEXT Maps If you are generating maps for NEXT, then you need to follow the guide for DE If you are generating maps for MOVE, MOTION or PREMIUM, then you need to follow the guide for 1B
Extracting the DE or 1B file: Fire up Esys make sure you're connected to the F20 (not F20_Direct) via your VIN and then in the left-hand vertical menu selects FSC Extended.
For NBT (DE File): In the Parameter section enter: 1. Diagnostic Address (hex) = 0x63 2. Click on the Identify button and the Base variant HU_NBTwill be populated 3. Application ID for NBT= 0xDE 4. Upgrade Index = 0x1

Upgrade Index = 0x1 In the Action section: 5. Select Store FSC and move from left to the right 6. Click on the Read button 7. Click Save and name the file in the following formatXXXXXXX.fsc where XXXXXXX is last seven letters/numbers of your VIN or your donor NBT vin if you have retrofitted the NBT. 8. [Optional] You can now disconnect eSys from your car as the next stages can be performed offline.
Getting the Code Generation Software: Unzip the directory attached. The directory can be placed/run from anywhere.
Generating the FSC code using the BMW_CIC_NBT_FSC_Generator for NBT:If you are generating NBT, copy fsc.exe in the NBT_FSC directory to the tools directory.

Preparing the USB stick: Takes about 45 mins to upload the Maps to your car; make sure you enter the code in CAPITALS, it has been said that you should have the car on/running during this period. But for me just pressing the Start button once was enough. Once the update is done, you will get a success message, wait a few minutes then turn the car on/off and then the version number will reflect the new map.
NBT USB stick needs to be FAT32 (32GB is enough) when you extract the map data to the stick Make sure you extract the folders to the USB root. The folders will be like: 1 (directory) 2 (directory) 3 (directory) 4 (directory) config.nfm NBT_ECE_101141.3.111.pkg NBT_ECE_101141.3.111.pkg.sig

CIC For the PREMIUM (CIC) maps you will have three directories: USB1 (directory) USB2 (directory) USB3 (directory) Copy the entire contents of USB1 to the root of the USB stick, should only be the following: config.nfm pkgdb (directory) Once uploaded to the car, the car will ask for USB2. Delete both the config.fm and pkgdb from the root and repeat the above with USB2....and then again with USB3

What happens when NEXT/Premium comes out? You just need to edit the Lookup.xml file with the new map details, just look at the previous entries, its follows a sequence.
Save your XXXXXXX_000DE001.FSC file, you can now just refer to this file and generate as and when the new maps come along. If you lose this file you will need to do the extraction steps again.
