Help activating ConnectedDrive BMW Live and Internet via Bluetooth connection - mikeypx82 - 22-07-2019

I did the telematic combox retrofit in my 2010 E82 and I have everything working except for BMW Live ($6AL) and Internet ($614). I’m trying to get these two options to work with the Bluetooth connection on my iPhone X. I have the mobile hotspot option enabled on my phone and the Data transfer via Bluetooth device option enabled on the car. Whenever I try to use BMW Live or Internet, I get the “Please activate data services for Bluetooth device or contact service center’ message. I have the BT_DATA option set to active in CIC. I coded the combox with a donor VIN that has factory 614, 6AL, etc… (WBA3D31000J268300) and set the ‘TELEMATIK_VIN’ option to ‘coding_vin’.

I think the problem might be with the donor VIN because my VIN (VK95973) is showing up under ‘Bluetooth Information’ instead of the donor VIN. I know the combox is coded with the donor VIN because I checked it in INPA and Tool32. I also double checked that the TELEMATIK_VIN was set to ‘coding vin’. Also, when I go to ‘Service Status’, ‘Update BMW Assist’ is greyed out. I believe this update has to be carried out first in order to get Live and Internet working but I’m not sure.

I attached a zip that has my FA, CIC, and Combox trace files. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Relevant VO entries before the combox retrofit:
609, 615, 620, 639, 645, 653, 655, 697, 6AA, 6AB, 6FL, 6UH
These are the changes I made to the VO after the combox retrofit:
Removed 639, #0909, added #0311, 614, 644, 6AL, 6NF, 6NR, 6VA, 6VC, 7SP

It doesn't work by tethering phone's internet connection to the car? I thought it was only BMW assist and BMW online that stopped working?

Indeed it is the internet-based services that BMW has taken down.

What?!, Really?
So, if i have a car with factory CIC + Combox, BMW Online does not work anymore?
This is stupid.
