I literally just had my truck at my dealer for inspection and oil change and I asked about a sw update because I have other problems they refuse to fix until a new sw is available and they said there was not one yet. Now I am pissed off again.

Im almost positive the DriveUconnect website does not show any UAx related stuff, regardless of if there is an update available.

Im not quite sure WHERE they store those files. The DriveUconnect site seems to only have RAx files.

There has been no OTA notifications for the latest update to 2018 / 2019 8.4 radios.

Did the update process work OK?

If so, what version are you on now?

It worked but i lost all use while driving. Not sure of the version but i will check later when i get home. I didnt notice anything better and it probably made things worse.

Please let us know the version you received.

Trying to track what is going out in the wild, last I checked there were 2 or 3 different versions coming over OTA, and some people that got one of them are now getting a screen saying there is another update on the way.

Basically, SNAFU from UConnect.

go to "settings" on your EVIC screen. then scroll down to "system". That'll tell you what Uconnect version you have.

Sorry, but how does one update or know if your UConnect has been updated? I have the 2014 Sport with 8.4 UConnect, but have no idea if it has been updated. I have owned my truck for less than a year

Have your VIN# handy and go here and enter it:
https://www.driveuconnect.com/support/software-update.html

Then do the trick where you push and hold a couple of HVAC controls to access the service menu on your radio and discover what UConnect software version your truck is running. Compare the software version you got at the website with the one your radio is telling you is running and decide if you need (or want) to take action.

So i've been getting the pending OTA update message for a week now, still no OTA. Just for giggles I checked the Uconnect with VIN and it says I'm all up to date with no pending updates, doesn't even display current version like it did a couple weeks ago. Go figure lol

Does it fix the stupid Volume glitch where the nav and speed warning volume levels reset every time you shut the truck off?

I updated my UAS to the 22.6 firmware have this booming nav and speed warning volume levels, same with Android Auto. It doesn't seem to remember my setting after I shut off the truck. Has anyone found a solution to this?

I also have a UAS, and upgraded to 22.6. Mine screams at me when i push the voice recognition button or phone button on the steering wheel...And android auto or text message alerts. It doesn't remember the volume on mine either. I would almost rather go back to the crappy audio and have it not scream at me all the time. Very frustrating...
If anybody finds a solution I'd love to hear it!

Edit to clarify that my volume resets to level 15 every single time i use the voice recognition, etc... even using it back to back the volume is loud every single time...
