Just to be clear , I'm not being sarcastic !
I want 5ea cameras so bad ! But I'll probably end up with BU , CARGO & FRONT only

The turn cameras I use for getting through tight spaces and are turned forward so I can see the front wheels.

Got my OTA update to 17.11.07 today for my 2015 Sport. I was previously on version 15.17.5

got the drag and drop icons in the toolbar, Siri I don't care about because I have an android phone.. noticed there were 7 background themes to choose from now (there may have always been 7 but I thought it was 6). I also didn't have to repair my phone and didn't lose my radio presets.

I noticed the following changes in the System Information screen:

My "NaviServer" updated from "9.10.31.44131x" to "9.10.32.68263x", the "Map Database" changed from "CMCN4VP4NA;NQNA2013Q4;20140625" to just "CMCN4VP4NA;V3". Also in system info screen it now has the sprint MDN#, MSID#, PRL#, ESN#, Head Unit Part Number, Head Unit Serial Number, and a "whats new" button.. again some of those may have been there before but I don't remember them being there.

Let me know if you want me to check anything else.. Cant test Siri as I don't own apple stuff. Also, I did check Uconnects page again with my VIN and it does not show the 17.11.07 update still.. just the 16.xx.xx Siri update..

Attached a few pics..

Will my 2014 8.4AN unit take this upgrade?

It's supposed to be pushed to all 2013 - 2016 Ram Trucks. Will be rolled out in phases.

@Indaram , you still have the conversion RA4 8.4NA , or did you get another truck with the RA4 Factory installed ?

I was wondering if this update would be available for conversion upgrades OTA ...

I traded my v6 Express truck that I had the conversion RA4 in for a new sport model that came with the RA4. Was pretty funny because the sales guy was writing up my trade as a "Hemi V8 with NAV". I had done the Hemi OEM dual exhaust with bumper mod to that truck too. Had to tell the guy it was the v6 and even then he didn't believe me until we walked out and I popped the hood haha. Service guys even came out and asked how the radio mod was done because Chrysler told them it was not possible..

And boy was he suprized when I came in with the RA4 8.4NA

Got the update a couple days ago (2015 1500 Sport w/Nav). Are we able to rearrange the icons in the lower section? They moved the apps icon to the center and it's bugging me.

I thought the OTA update was supposed to include movable icons ?

Have you tried to touch & drag the icons to reposition them ?

I tried a few things but I probably need to find a manual for the update and try again.

FYI all, since I did the update I have been getting sporadic error messages saying my 911 system needs to be serviced by the dealer. It randomly pops up and goes away without me having to acknowledge it and before I can snap a picture of it. Running the 911 bypass plug from infotainment, doubt that would be an issue as it's sporadic, if the bypass plus were bad I would think it would stay on all the time. Anyone else done a manual upgrade on a conversion truck?

2016 RA4 Radio in 2016 Truck, factory was RA2
Factory 7 speed
Infotainment 911 Fouler
M2's Harness (non ATC version)

Mine started doing the same about a month or two now. I suspected a pre-update that caused it. I haven't gotten an OTA yet. FYI, the message disappears automatically in normal operation.

Hi Ttubbiola,

Here is a video showing the Drag and Drop bar feature:

Most icons are movable however the Uconnect Apps icon is not and will always be in the middle.

Thanks Andrea!

That sucks though since I have zero use for those apps.
