So what software level is it showing on the screen?
Here are my before and after...

It was on:

Multimedia: MX-003.004.031
Telephone: TX-003.004.031

It's now on (after applying UPD01006.bin):

Multimedia: MX-003.005.004
Telephone: TX-003.005.006

So the Multimedia side is fine, it's just the Telephone side. Hmmm interesting.
Have you tried my file I posted just in case, could be something wrong with the other one.

I did try with your bin file, yep.

The original origin of my Combox Media was from an LCI R56 Mini, so I wonder if that has an impact.

It all works exactly as required, so it's more 'vanity' I guess.

Strange, but as long as it's working then that's the main point.

I am in the same boat on my E90 2011 CIC Business. I managed to update to 1006, but get the 'Update on USB is not the latest version' for 1008. Did you manage to resolve it or figure out why it is happening?

do you still have your file, could you share it with me?

When reviewing any potential SW updates, I see that the Combox does indeed have one available. This is my current one when viewing in the CIC SW support screen:

Multimedia MX-003.004.031

Telephone TX-003.004.031


This is my issue, I've downloaded the latest SW to a FAT32 flash drive, and I cannot get it to flash. I know the USB stick in the armrest is getting power because I have a blinky light on it and also verified the black FAKRA is connected to the module. Doing a bunch of research of this has pretty much led me to a dead-end. Certainly I'm convinced it's a coding parameter or something. Also, I verified I have the appropriate $6FL in the FA. NCSEXPERT shows the USB coding aktiv and Here's some of the links I've been trying to follow.

Any ideas?

P.S. (also tried a different USB stick--no success)

CIC is a CIC.C1A version
Combox is a CMEDIAR.C05 version

I couldn't upload the file itself here, but here's the link to download.
This is version 1006, hope this helps.

Also has anyone been able to flash version 1008? It keeps saying that it's not the newest version.

Download link v. 1006:

Thank you - still getting value from your 1006 bin update.
