BlueBus: A fully integrated A2DP Bluetooth solution

[t3ddftw]

FYI, I rolled out the online releases portion of the new firmware tool, so you can keep up with and easily load the newest version right from the website.

Just updated the firmware to bluebus_1_4_32.hex
Tried a couple of times to use the blinker, and it all worked well. It didn't blink continuously like it did before, but blinked 3 times and then shut off.
All good, thank you for the support t3ddftw !

Thanks for the information and update !
I'll try it sometime soon

Thanks for the @ but wrong username !

Hi everyone,
I’m running BlueBus in an E46 330Ci Cabrio (EU car, no factory telephone pre-wire).
I’d like to use the full telephone path (hard MUTE/TEL-ON + Tel Audio ±) in addition to the normal CDC T-harness, so that calls interrupt regardless of the current source—i.e., like the OEM ULF behavior.
Is there a custom plug-and-play adapter loom that:

• plugs into the BlueBus 6-pin telephone header, and
• breaks out the four radio lines to the back of the head unit, plus
• provides two wires for the OEM microphone from the steering-column grille?

Kind regards

Yes, I make these to order for $25 USD.

I'm on the latest firmware and I'm noticing that my clock keeps changing to AM, even if i go in and change it to PM, if i stop and start the car, the nav shows AM time? Anyone else seeing this?

What firmware version are you on? 1.4.32 is the latest beta, and I think 1.4.0+ fixes this issue.

set to 24H

Before ordering, I was hoping someone can confirm current Bluebus does not prompt for a pin when attempting to pair.

I’m looking to use a CarPlay screen that won’t recognize a pin request at pairing.

Thanks in advance.

I don't think so

No prompt for pin on mine.

Correct, no pin is required.

Quick question for you guys out there running this solution.
I activated the triple blink option but sometimes it seems to fail and the blinker keeps going forever.
I can activate the opposite side blinker but when I cancel it, the initial side starts blinking again

Anyone experienced this ? Is there a solution ?

I had something similar happen exactly once after I changed to the triple blink, wasn't sure if it was related or not. I bumped the stalk the opposite way when trying to cancel the blinker. It kept blinking until I fully turned the blinker on and then off.

Funny I recently also started having this issue. And randomly sometimes doesn't connect.

Thanks for your feedback !
I guess I am not the only one who experienced that.

terra agreed, but I am not sure my LCM is triple-blink capable. I must say I haven't looked into it. It's a bit too involved from what I gathered quickly. I'll maybe save that for later.

This was fixed recently in 1.4.20+
Here is the latest beta:

There's also a new firmware tool that runs straight in your browser: https://www.bluebus.dev/firmware

Here for an update on the CarPlay module t3ddftw

It was going well until Texas Instruments discontinued the DIT4096, so I am being forced to iterate the prototype hardware. I shifted to BlueBus firmware improvements for now as I'd like to get a bunch of features and bugfixes out so I can focus on the AA/CarPlay solution.

Also, today was the first time I saw an update on this thread, so if I don't respond, please shoot me an email at [email protected]

If it's the car in your sig, it should be capable with a flash https://nam3forum.com/forums/forum/s...blink-and-more

If it's an older car, would have to grab one of the newer LCMs and then do the above.

I'd argue it's less involved than most of the mechanical stuff that we don't blink an eye at

Honestly I'd just flash the LCM
