Looking for input regarding successful/failure R55 battery registration with the Carly for BMW app (used to be called BMWhat) and gen 2 bluetooth adapter (Android). If you could weigh in if it worked for you that would be awesome! I want to use it on a 2012 Mini Clubman S. Have to register the battery since it has IBS. If you found other app/adapter combo for Android that isn't super expensive that would be helpful too! When my warranty runs out, I might be interested in clearing codes as well.

Carly's website says to test with the lite version to see if you can do the battery registration. Problem is I have to buy an OBDII adapter to just check. Customer support hasn't gotten back to me about which R55's it would work with and which it wouldn't, or if I can return it if it doesn't. I know I could get a cheaper adapter to test, but my battery is on it's last legs, so trying a bunch of random adapters would probably be a bad idea.

Thanks gjxj for that info. FYI to those with R55's: Carly replied in an email to me that there will be no more R55 updates to their program unless they get requests.

I urge all Carly users to request they ad Rear Foglight Activation.

Just as a favor for me. :-)
