What is multi color presentation mode? Is this basically enabling the multi color leds that come on the prestige (which my car will already have)?

I tried googling that as well, couldn't find anything. I'm interested as I have the OBD 11 but haven't tried it yet.

Doesn't it say it only works until the ignition is switched off? I thought it was some demo mode and not much use!

I'm guessing it's a demo mode where the LEDs will cycle through the colors continuously.

Terminology: "apps" are little code sequences that run within the OBD11 Android App. You buy them with credits which you can earn by viewing ads, or purchase from OBD11. There are only very few apps for the 17 Q7. Last I knew, VIM (video in motion) was the only one. But apps are not needed for most of the tweeks that you read about here.

#1 can be done with an adaptation in OBD11 (no app purchase required)
#2: people have been trying to find a way, no luck so far
#3: I've been trying to find a way to do this and have not been successful
Correct, number 2 is a no go, normally you could adjust if it resets on ignition off as well as set the speed threshold but not in our case, number 3 will be a no go most likely too (as you know)

It is a demo mode but can be enabled in without credits in central electrics coding.

Do you know the coding for demo mode?

Not off the top of my head but it will be in coding and it will be referred to as presentation mode and probably have multi color ambient lighting references in the label as well.

Dumb question, but I read several folks talking about which version, SW developer, and the Pro version, but could someone post the link?

Sorry to bump something so old but it popped up on Google while searching. In obdeleven you go to Central electric, adaptation, and then scroll down to Presentation mode multicolor ambient and contour light. You cant control it from MMI. It cycles through colors.

*edit* It turns off after you turn off the car.
