I'm an owner of a 2007 Brera, with Blue&Me (without nav).
Recently I started looking into a way to play music from Spotify, since using mp3s was getting inconvenient.
I uploaded my BMConf.xml file
It showed that I have Blue&me first generation and displayed the link for 5.6 update.
However installing it, as well as 5.5, always resulted in "USB data configuration error" (and I tried 5 different USB sticks).
But being certain I have the 1st gen, I ordered the Blue&Me Media Player iPod/iPhone Adaptor. I tested it with an iPhone and iPad - it didn't work.
Then I stumbled upon information that if "Image ID" entry is present in Blue&Me's Advanced settings then it means it's 2nd gen. Mine displayed:
So then I attached my iPad directly to the car's USB port, and lo and behold, playing from Spotify worked! :lol: (so now I have an Adaptor for sale :cheeky
I like having the latest software, and seeing that the download page identifies my generation wrong, I tried looking for direct links for Blue&Me updates.
I did manage to extract them from their website, so I'm attaching the list below in case anyone else needs it.
But I had no luck with updating. Tried 7.0, 8.0 and 10.0. Getting UAnotAl error in the log every time, which means "versionCheck::CarNotAllowed".
I still can't find a direct link to 6.0. Does anyone have it?
