Brake Squeal... Help!

I know this issue has probably been beat to death but I'm hoping somebody has figured out a cure for the GODDAMN BREAK SQUEAL. I Haven't been able to pinpoint exactly when the squealing starts but i narrowed it down to the time period directly after I had the car/brakes warmed up and parked somewhere for a few minutes. It seems to be getting progressively worse, I've had the front brakes and rotors replaced, I've went through the bedding process at least 3 times but still the issue is reoccurring.
It's really starting to irritate me that my $100K BMW sounds like a city bus every time i come to a stop.

Any advice anybody may have would be greatly appreciated.

General consensus is to stop using the stock brake pads and swap to an aftermarket pad.

The only fix is to upgrade your brake pads with aftermarket pads.
BMW will not replace your brakes under warranty tho because you are using NON BMW Approved parts.

I know it sucks, But it is what it is unfortunatly

Dealer replaced my pads and chamfered them. Not one squeal, yet. I attached my service order for reference - see the below thread. Good luck.

I followed Mike Miller's advice from Roundel's Tech Talk (one of the last few issues) and bought some Permatex Disc Brake Quiet. Had the dealer remove the pads, clean them and apply the Permatex to the back. So far so good, but I don't have that many miles on the car since the service.
