Ok, I just recently installed a 2015 8.4AN in my 2014 tradesman. I actually have and they work the following via mobile apps; Pandora, Slacker and of course Yelp. In when I launch the assist app it opens and actually makes the phone calls to assistance, custom care etc.
The cameras is much more colorful than it was with the 2014 8.4AN, however it is not as clear and far worse in low light situations.
The themes are kind of nice the album art on XM is nice, the NAV does not really seem to me any different, I know the 2015 has updated maps but I cannot really tell the difference.
I know Pandora and Slacker are dated and others say I they Spotify, well I really like Slacker and Pandora wish I had Iheart on there weird that I have 2 of them but not the other 2. I will say this the sound quality is slightly improved on the 2015 radio and the slacker and Pandora sound quality is better than the XM or the IPOD or the even the HD radio, not sure why. Not that the other apps sound bad not at all but the via mobile apps are noticeably better.
I cannot register, weird thing is I do not have the icon in the list yet when I launch yelp or try to go to the uconnect store it asks me to register. I also do not have Wi-Fi and get an error message when I try to go to the uconnect store.
OK now for a question for the sharp tacks out there, I also have on this radio the controls soft key, when I open it, it has a settings soft key (to be expected) and a another soft key I have never seen nor can find any info on its an "ECON" soft key??? Anyone know what this is for.
Oh one other thing it will not let me change any settings while the key in on ACC, setting functions are under lit and I get a message saying settings can only be changed when inginition is in the run position, I did not have that on the 2014 radio?
