We just got a 14 Ram 1500 and we're in North Pole, AK. The truck originally came from Edmonton, AB Canada. Since it came from Canada, they apparently don't get the u connect apps option. Does anyone know if there is a work around for this now that the truck is in the US??
From reading, it seems you have to replace your 8.4 system with a US spec'ed one, as the Canadian versions don't connect to the Sprint network that is required. I could be wrong, this is just from what I have been reading. Also, once you switch, you may not be able to use the uConnect service, because it may be tied to the VIN.
So, I'm not sure I understand it, but from my reading, it seems like even if you change it, you wont be able to use the apps as you wont be able to pay for the uconnect service (the only way to use the apps).
***But again, I could be wrong with some or all if what I wrote, this is how I understand it from my reading.
