Its better to have a new thread for each update since there seems to be different "problems" or outcomes with each update they put out to us.

Having a thread that is version specific allows anyone to go through the posts and *hopefully* find the answer to their question about the version that they are using.

Gotcha

Tried it today...seemed to update ok following the steps here...then when I tried to begin Pandora it kept asking me to start the Unconnect app on my smartphone, which has nothing to do with the Pandora at all.

I went to moparownersconnect.com and linked the Pandora account there, and still nothing. Quite frankly it isn't worth the trouble as I will just start the Pandora app on my phone and stream it that way.

This is the best you could come up with Mopar? Flat out terrible...


*EDIT* Didn't know that the Unconnect App needed updating too....my bad...off to try again...my Iphone didn't tell me it needed it...

Today I could not get the download from the usur_chrysler site. The download manager gets loaded, but the download never starts. However, using the direct link I was able to get the download.
Can someone explain the relationship of this "Mega" site??

The mega site is just a standard free file hosting service. I have personally downloaded all of those update files on my original post from uconnect directly, using my own, and my friends' VIN numbers.

What you will get from the mega site will be the exact file as you would get from the uconnect update site.

Its more of a convenience of not having to use the akami download manager than anything. Quick, easy download.

Why does it say vehicles in Alaska and Hawaii shouldn't do this update? An appointment with a dealer is required???

Did you log into Mopar Owner Connect and setup your Via Mobile Profile?

Here's the link on how to use Via Mobile...

Uconnect® Access | The next generation of connectivity has arrived

Here's a link to Mopar Owner Connect...

https://www.moparownerconnect.com/oc/US/en-us/sub/Pages/OwnersLogin.aspx

Log into Mopar Owner Connect, scroll down to "Uconnect Quick Links" and select "Set Up Via Mobile Profile". Click on each of the apps and enter you usernames and passwords, click save and log out.

Make sure you have the most recent version of the Uconnect app downloaded onto your smartphone too. You also have to be logged into the Uconnect app on your smartphone in order for the apps in your vehicle to work. You do not however need to launch the Uconnect app on your phone (there's a "vehicle in motion lockout" anyway) in order for the Via Mobile apps to work in your vehicle.

Thank you, that worked

I just bought leftover 2013 and did this upgrade from uconnect to my truck and my brothers 2013. worked perfectly, no problems. In fact i had issues with the remote start through the smartphone and this update cured it. then My brother took his back to the dealer for tsb,s and such and they insisted his radio needed to be upgraded. he told them we just did it. they insisted we couldnt have done what they needed to do.So they did and When he got home he had a older version installed (13.38) had to reload the latest. the dealers dont all know. keep swapping stories here.

Just a heads up, but those of us with the new Samsung Galaxy S4, we won't be able to access the Via Mobile apps right now. I've been told they're working on it.

Got my truck last week, and my Galaxy S4 works fine with Uconnect.

Installed the new update. Noticed the comfort controls are different. Used to have Both heated seats and wheel. Now only wheel. And there used to be a choice of remote start, normal start, or both. Now no choice. Hope it corrects itself after some driving.

After a second look at the comfort controls when starting the car, they now have a single check box. to enable it for "all engine starts". Before the update, I had the option of "off/remote_Start/All_Starts". I think I liked it better when I could only enable the heated seats and wheel for Remote start.

I wonder if that was a '14 option? I've only had the option to turn the heated/cooled seats & steering wheel on/off no matter how I started the vehicle. What software version did you have prior to the update?

Did the update on Friday. 2 days later still have messed up balance and fader controls and has become very picky with the USB and SD card drives. Refuses to play them about half the time. On a brighter note, Pandora and Slacker work great with an HTC One X. Does anyone know of a way to roll back to an older version?

The new update works great for me - but now I noticed that the volume on phone calls is way down even if I raise the volume to full blast. Anyone else experience this?

I thought the new update was great but then I noticed the same balance/fader issue that you're having - and the volume on my phone is way down even with the volume on the radio turned up to max and the phone volume turned up to max. The new apps are cool but it's much more important to me to have my phone volume so I can hear it. I removed the new software update and downgraded back to 13.38.52. Now everything works again and the balance/fader is fixed too. Hopefully the next version of software fixes these little bugs.

just wanted to update that it took about 2 weeks but everything seems to be working correctly now. Bal/fader controls etc are working as expected. The flaky sd and usb drive issues are ok as well. My only issue now is a juddery backup camera image.
