Funny thing is I got this message in FordPass today after getting the update from Samsung that fixed it LOL...

Got the January security update for my S24 Ultra this morning. After resetting PaaK and redoing the setup process, I am happy to say that PaaK finally works again on my '24 GT. This was so frustrating, I had to break into my house two weeks ago to get my car key because PaaK stopped working while out eating breakfast with my family. I have a smartlock for my front door now.

Whoever relies on PAAK, having the backup passcode is a MUST!

Which phone do you have? I just checked for an update on my S23+ and still stuck on the Dec. update.

S24U I got it yesterday but I dont use PaaK, this update is still 6.1.1 not UI7 (beta), those on the beta said it worked and those who installed this update also posted success in PaaK functionality.
If you are on 23 then wait for the 25? Maybe it is their motivator for those on the fence thinking about upgrading.

On the app you should still be able to unlock doors...

I'm still counting on a January update so I can hang up the fob again. Maybe tomorrow.

just installed secuity update on Galaxy S24 and paak works again after it quit working with dec 2024 update, but now remote climate does not work, I'd rather have remote climate than paak

I would restart the app, clear cache and etc...
This sound more like an app/ford issue.

My S24 ultra updated today. Bluetooth connected and it appears that all PaaK functions are working as normal.

I'm not sure why but on multiple occasions I've had the PAAK not work and it not accept the backup codes (I am 100 percent sure I had the code right). I think I remember a theory why being posted on here but can't remember it. Had it in for warranty work and they cleared a bunch of error messages, hasn't happened since. I got lucky the first couple times, I was at home. Bought a faraday bag after that.

I am still waiting for the Jan security update on my Samsung Fold 6, the Flip 5 got it already. Both phones are the unlocked version.

Strange. Just got the January security update yesterday on Pixel 9 Pro. PAAK worked twice yesterday but this morning despite a phone restart PAAK refused to work. Have never had an issue like that at any point, even with this communication from Ford last month.

I updated security patch on my Z Flip 5. PAAK is working again and actually seems more stable. However, its asking me to set up a back up code and I get an error when trying to select the phone??
