BMW ICOM NEXT<\/a> and BMW ICOM A2 both\u00a0can work with the same software ISTA-D ISTA-P for the same BMW vehicles. But they are kind of different from some aspects, especially firmware adaption.\u00a0Such as :<\/p>\n

(1)<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>ICOM NEXT <\/strong>Functionally compatible to BMW ICOM A2<\/a><\/strong>
\n<\/strong>(2)<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>ICOM NEXT <\/strong>Mechanical design similar ICOM A2\u00a0<\/strong>
\n<\/strong>(3) ICOM NEXT <\/strong>Backwards compatible to car adapters (BMW ICOM B, C) and motorcycle adapters (ICOM D, E)<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

(4) <\/strong>ICOM NEXT ABC\u00a0SPECS:<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

1.\u00a0Zeroization of data on tamper detection<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0Secure supply chain assurance<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0Key storage using physically un-clonable function<\/p>\n

4. CRI Pass-Through DPA Patent Portfolio<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0Advanced cryptographic Services<\/p>\n

(5)\u00a0Improved Functionality and Performance:<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Gbit workshop LAN,backwards compatible<\/p>\n

2. Preparation for Gbit LAN on vehicle OBD(cars do not yet supportthis and interface not yet defined,ICOM Next hardware adaptation will be necessary for future Gbit car interface,will cause adaptation costs)<\/p>\n

3. Faster start-up times and high throughput<\/p>\n

4. Through high-performance,low-power ARM SoC<\/p>\n

5. Improved handling<\/p>\n

6. More flexible OBD cable<\/p>\n

7. Lighted button for logs etc<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Reference for ICOM Next restore:<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

1.It\u00a0need usb 2.0 or usb 3.0 flash drive formatted with FAT32.<\/p>\n

2.Copy ICOM_Next-rootfs-xxxxxx.tar.gz and ICON_Next-app-xxxxxx.tar.gz to the root of usb.<\/p>\n

3.Please make sure BMW Icom have disconnected from power supply.<\/p>\n

4.Plug USB drive into ICOM NEXT.<\/p>\n

5.Press and hold the button on ICOM NEXT and connect it to the OBDII of a vehicle.<\/p>\n

6.Keep the button pressed after about 4 second all LED turn to orange\/yellow.<\/p>\n

7.Release the button and then press it 3 times within 5 second.<\/p>\n

8.Wait for around 5 until the led\u2019<\/span>s turns green.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Please pay attention <\/strong>:<\/strong>\u00a0For icom next bin file , install the driver 03.14.08 , and go after in program data, bmw, ista, and find data folder where icom drivers are stored and copy those 2 archives on usb. Then follow steps listed above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
