OBD connection status icon is reported as white in AA on BMW i4

I have an i4 connected via ODBII, since last update the odb connection icon is reported as white (in the map on my car screen) however my phone say it's correctly connected (odbble)

Where does this happen?
ABRP version number (found at bottom of settings menu)

    Hi @Gaetano Mendola,

    Could you provide a screenshot of this?

      I can but nothing really that hard to immagine. White Bluetooth icon on car screen and a “connected odbble on phone”. This happens now only on my bmw, with the Ioniq5 no problems

        Please spend a second snapping a photo and provide it. Knowing exactly how something looks is super helpful to the team, as you could imagine, and it helps us deliver a solution to you faster. This is not something we’ve seen before.

            This is on Android Auto? Split screen?

              Yes, consider that on my other car (Ioniq5) it works just fine

    Thanks for reporting! We have recently added an orange icon color for when the OBD communication fails - perhaps that is rendered as white on your BMW for some reason? Does the OBD connection work and you get the correct values from the car?

      Everything seems working just the icon instead to be green is white. I'm trying to upload the screen shot but somehow from phone it doesnt allow me.

      I bet you added that orange icon before the white one and now the index for the green icon points to the white one (just a guessing), that seems strange because on my Ioniq5 I don’t have that problem (unless you have icons setting per car model)
