How to install a new firmware
Save the file "update.bin" to any FAT32 formatted USB stick. Please make sure you have the USB stick unmounted/ejected at your computer's operating system. Now plug this stick into the CP730BMW. The device should start blinking on all LEDs very fast for about 30 seconds. After the blinking stops, unplug the CP730BMW for at least 5 seconds. Or if you don't like to unplug the device, just close all doors of your car, lock it for at least 15 minutes to be sure all devices are powered off. After unlocking the car again, the CP730 starts with the new firmware.

BETA: Here are bleeding-edge updates for the CP730BMW. They may be unstable but you can always return to the latest official release. Bricking the device with an update is almost impossible, because the boot loader is not erasable inside the device.
