Finally got the 1.7.1 update
Sponsored
It is really dumb that it is a one time setup. What if I want to shuffle my radio presets? Or I could decide to cancel SXM, or move to a new city and have new AM/FM stations. And what about in the future if they add new features to the profiles, like temperature setting, as an example.This is what you did when you created your profile in the app when you first got the car. They've just added more stuff to it. It's a one time setup so you won't see it again.
It’s not finished. When it’s finished you’ll get a notice.Got my 1.7.1 update overnight, but there is nothing telling me that I did. I know I got it because a) the car behaved weird during my short drive, and then b) I see Notes. After powering on/off a few times, car is behaving fine BUT under updates it just says I'm up to date, not that I just got 1.7.1. Sloppy, sloppy.
Our update to 1.7.1 failed yesterday and this morning when I left the garage the screen stayed dark. I drove for about 5 miles to Lowes to get some paint supplies and then I came out and restarted the car it cleared up. Don’t know if this was related to the failed upgrade attempt?Maybe add a category for those that received the "IT'S OK, WE'LL TRY AGAIN SOON" message indicating the update failed. The car was in the garage with WIFI connectivity when I suspect the download started. When I pulled out of the garage and noticed the sync screen displayed a half dark and half light background. The setting is normally set to dark mode, but had switched to 'auto'. I changed it back to 'dark' mode and that corrected it. The car was probably receiving the update (based on the time stamp of the failure notification) at that time, but once I leave the garage there is no cell coverage for several hundred yards, then spotty at best for the next mile or so. The download process probably timed out. All this is speculation on my part, but would make sense if that is the case. It would be helpful if ford could give a notification that a Power-Up download was in process. I would have waited for it to complete before leaving. The failure notification states it "will try again at my regularly scheduled update time"...whenever that is?
Update: Two weeks after accepting the update in the MME to 1.7.1, I received notice in FP that I have an update pending for 1.7.1 and need to accept or connect to wifi. Since I am already connected to wifi in the garage and I accepted the update in the car already, I seem to be stuck. No new features have been added. Will update when something else happens.Notification to update came Monday night, November 8. Updated overnight. Shows version 1.7.1, but no Notes, etc, as of yet. Early access only. I'll update poll after Notes comes through.
Yes see post 12489 onwards https://www.macheforum.com/site/threads/uk-customers.588/page-833Any eurocars seen updates yet? Given that we got 1.4 and 1.6 like 6 months after NA, it should be possible that Ford made a mistake and updated someone from Europe..
Amazing, thanks. Next on the lookout for localized versions.Yes see post 12489 onwards https://www.macheforum.com/site/threads/uk-customers.588/page-833
I been stuck says i have it with no features. It's been close to 6 weeks in that state. Auto update is grayed out and no 1.7.1 features just say in my car I have it.Updated my vote. 1.7.1 came in last night with no issues. Interestingly, the update screen in my car went from "you are up to date Version 1.4.0" to just "You are up to date"
