8.4 inch - how to check for available update

[metb4]

Anyone know how to check for an available update on the 8.4 inch? I can't find my software version number either. I think I read that that functionality had been deleted. Thanks!

There is no way. There is not a check for update and the link is useless on the newer Panasonic radios. They are doing OTA only. If there is an update for your truck then you will be notified on screen. If you miss it then it will notify again. They pop up when you turn the ignition OFF and before you open the door

Be aware that the first update took 20 minutes.

I hope they update mine soon. Super buggy. Pretty much every time I start the truck Sirius starts up, even though I was just listening to a USB drive. Then when I switch to the USB, it starts at the same song every time and shuffle is turned off. Getting a little bit annoying

That is only for the units with NAV unfortunately the trucks without NAV do not get the OTA updates because there is no data to the radio.

So I would have to bring the truck in to get an update?

I believe so, I actually have an appointment tomorrow morning at the dealership to address some of the bugs which are fixed by the software update. I will let you know what they say about updates.

I don't like that I check every other day, KNOWING that most other owners have more up to date software and the website and staff on the phone say there is no update for me. Pathetic.

Please do let me know what you find out. Thanks so much!

Radio updates are something owners can do on your own, all you need is a computer and a clear flash drive. The website even gives instructions on how to do it.

Link is broken @96Dodge4x4

Not always. The system is broken, too many trucks out there with newer software and everytime I check, it tells me I'm up to date.

You’re right I posted our dealer one that’s why it’s not working, sorry about that https://www.driveuconnect.com/support/software-update.html

If this doesn’t show an update if you send me your vin I can put it though the dealer site to double check if there is an update
