Navigation menu stuck on loading - Ganimede - 06-28-2024
Hi guys. i just bought a BMW 2021 218 Cabrio and I am trying to understand how to use a navigator. The navigation menu is stuck in "loading". The car is made in 2021.
Entered service menu:
GPS state is ok and reports the correct location but receiver SW and receiver data are empty
P.S I already tried to reset the system by pushing the volume button for 30 seconds without luck
PP.S tried to send a destination from the BMW app to the car . No luck
I suppose the dealer screwed the map data.
P.S Can I connect an Android phone with Android Auto?
Thank you all

you need to check your FSC status , either your navigation activation map is missing ( easy fix ) , or worst case scenario you have Harddrive problem.
are you able to copy MP3 music files from let's say an USB flash drive to the media drive of the car ? if yes then hopefully your harddrive is OK.
If you have PC with Enet cable , there are many free tools where you can check the Activation codes status.
You have NBT EVO Headunit , there is no Android Auto but there is screen mirroring which almost useless in my opinion.

Thank you very much for your replay.
I managed to copy some mp3 files on the hard disk.
Can you tell me if it is possible to know the capacity of the HD?
Do you think something like this could be useful for adding android auto to the car?

The car is under warranty tomorrow I'l bring the car to BMW dealer I hope they will be able to fix it, after that, I can start thinking about updating maps if needed.
Thnak you

you can add such device to your car in order to get android auto , my only problem with those devices is that they use AUX input for sound input , I personally not a fan of that specially if the car has Harmon Kardon sound system, but if you are not that fussy like me , then it should work with you.
If your car is still under warranty, might be a small problem adding such aftermarket devises .
HDD capacity can be easily checked in the system itself somewhere in one of the menus
