I've tried using Bimmercode with my Android phone to code my 2018 Mini. On my first attempt, I made a handful of changes and hit Code. I received a message that the connection wasn't strong enough, and the app disconnected from the device. On my second try I attempted to only make one change. That worked. I tried again and got the same message I got the first time. Every time I tried again I got the same message. I'm giving up for now.
Coding via WiFi with Bimmercode is excruciatingly slow. Is there any way to use a cable with a MacBook Pro (without using Parallels or any other Windows app)?

Correct, you'd have to use parallels or similar type of program to get windows on your/our macs.
I went to Target and got a $250 POS windows computer for my ESYS and Byte Tronik ECU flashing program

Hello Miniac's!
I sold my R52 Sidewalk for F57 2017 Pack JCW exterior/exterior and want 2-3 coding
I wish to open and close my mirrors without comfort access. Also I'd like to open the convertible roof with the key and night mode off for the ODB.
I tried with Carly without success. BimmerCode is better, I managed to activate some fun stuff:
- Tires temperature
- Sport mode by default
- No more start / stop
- Glass going up and down even with open door
-...
Has anyone done what I'd like on a F57 ?
I removed comfort access when I ordered my Mini and now I regret it.

nobody has an idea?
It sure does on my 2017. Disabling traction control to any extent turns cruise control off. Likewise, enabling cruise control or setting a speed re-enables traction control.

Yes, I have a mechanical limited slip differential that makes its efforts pointless or, at worst, counterproductive. Shutting it off is a manual every time thing and has downsides (warning in cluster, can't use cruise control, etc.) and shutting it all the way off disables stability control, which I don't really want to do on the road either. I'm wondering if there is a happy medium.

I literally just went and started my car before responding to make sure I wasn't crazy, but no 4 gongs. The only time I get gongs at start is if I don't have my seatbelt fastened or if it's 37 degrees F or below.

Hmm, actually, I found something more here: http://www.2addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1231483
I wonder if our cars have C_Funktion_Differenzialsperre_aktiv_l. I'll have to dust off my windows laptop and take a look to see if it's in the coding tool.

Crap, sorry, that's it I guess, seat belt gongs - I tried to disable them in ASCM using Beemercode but it says can'ta access the module, I sent in a support request from the app and I'm waiting for the reply. So if I disable the seat belt initial 3 gongs it will get rid of those annoying gongs then I guess, thanks for pointing that out.

Hmmm... Amazon had certified refurbished laptops for as low as $177 .
I had to buy mine of eBay.
