You may mean BM53 here.

Here's my update after dealing with this mess since June 25th.

EAS was excellent in offering me the chance to return the item!!

Dice was completely unresponsive through their online ticketing system or email. I ended up calling them and spoke with a helpful tech called Adam. He told me he would send me a label to return the 2nd unit (which I did) and said he was sorry I was not satisfied. I asked him to let me know in 2-3 days (before my RMA number with EAS was expired) if Dice would have a firmware update to fix my issue. He did email me on day 2 that it was out and should work. I updated the firmware that day and tried it out.

The issue is still there, however now it's a bit more usable as I can see a bit more of the text. Like Tom mentioned there is definitely some kind of data collision as it gets very jumbled if the nav screen swaps back and forth. I've decided to keep the unit and see if any further updates help my cause but for now I can at least see what artist is playing and my iPhone is playing my music so we're halfway there.

I do however have to say my displeasure of dealing with Dice Electronic and how terrible their customer service is! McDonalds has better service!!

I kept emailing the original tech "Manuel" for help and got no responses. I went a step further and kept asking for updates in my online tickets through their website. I guess they got sick of hearing from me and deleted my account as I can no longer log in... but they didn't respond to those either.

So my verdict... if you have a newer radio then go for it, but don't expect any tech support. If you have an older model like myself... RUN AWAY!

I noticed on your iPhone that you have a percentage indicator for your battery. How did you get that on there? I have a 3G iPhone and I'd love to be able to see the actual percentage. And by the way I appreciate your description of the MediaBridge. I've written articles on ezine about the DICE products and the MediaBridge is just as you describe. Well done!

Go into SETTINGS>GENERAL>USEAGE on your iPhone and you should see the toggle within that submenu.

So just to clarify before I order (I'm no tech genius!)...

I have a 2002 X5 with DSP, no navigation. Will the Bluetooth text display on my radio?
Assuming I buy the Bluetooth equipped MediaBridge, will I be able to stream Pandora through my Android device? Will I be able to change Pandora songs through the steering wheel controls?
Will it connect to the trunk where my current CD changer is? Do I need an additional kit for this?
Will I need the DSP adapter (I've heard some people with DSP did not require this)?

Thanks,

Yes, you will receive caller ID when an incoming call is received.

You can either through A2DP streaming or via the iPhone/touch's touchscreen, depending on what specific device is being used.

No.

Yes, this will utilize the CD Changer prewiring in the trunk area.

Will I need the DSP adapter (I've heard some people with DSP did not require this)?[/QUOTE]

Yes, you require the DSP (Digital) adapter since you are equipped with DSP.

Tom,

Thank you for all your help. I just pulled the trigger and I am very excited!!

Just to make sure, are you sure the MediaBridge will work on non-Nav equipped X5s? The DICE website says it will only work with 16:9 Nav unlike the Silverline. Does anyone have a Mediabridge running without Nav?
Thanks,
-Cyrus

If you look at the table it says (in a round about way) that it doesn't work with the MID. Only radios and nav are supported.
