Ok, so I finally got 4.1.1 today after being stuck on 3.5.4 since October.

I think I finally figured out the problem. If you want to receive OTA updates, follow these steps:
  1. Make sure battery is under 30%. 28% seems to be the sweet spot.
  2. Place sunglasses in center console (NOT overhead - near the charging pad).
  3. Wipers need to be turned OFF (not automatic! Very important).
  4. Set cargo floor in the LOW position.
Hope this helps!

Naw, that will just stress the HVBJB if you have a GT-PE that is Cyber Orange. 🤪🐩

Does the brand of sunglasses matter?

You also have to rub your belly and pay your head while hopping up and down on your left foot and reciting the Star Spangled Banner. 🤣🐩

EDIT: “…rub your belly and pat your head…” 🤬🐩

Doing this and locking yourself in the frunk is how you get the frunk release update

I’m writing This from my frunk and still nothing is coming through.
I do smell like shrimp though.

The frunk need an electric habachi. Rivian look out!
I was going to try the 'charge on 110v for 3 weeks with the car running and locked' next. Most likely that's what the dealer will do.

Between pulling all the tires off every couple days, laying under it for hours and sitting it in in the driveway for hours playing with the screen. My neighbors know I'm really connecting with this car.
