[Snicklefritz_76]

Just updated from LR-34 -> PR39 -> PR40. Everything looks good, thanks for all the information all.

Trying to figure out what version my radio is. Is it really 12.1? Is this upgradable? This is a 2019 Rebel. (Don't worry I cleaned my screen )

34.2, you are a little behind

34.2, you are a little behind

That makes me feel a little better. Thought it was ancient haha. Do I need to do each update sequentially or can I skip?

Lots of guys have had to go from 34.2 to the next higher one before being able to jump all the way to most recent.

It's been about a week and I do notice some improvements.

Using Android Auto now I get the artist and track name on the bottom screen. Previously I just got the track name.


Might be my imagination but the bass from the speakers also seems more responsive .

The fan speed menu also looks a little different to me.

I would like to thank all the people that acquired the software and shared it with the members here.
New owner, so late to the party so to speak, and new to the site.
I went from 34.2.0 to the 40.1 that was shared. I went to the UCONNECT website and submitted my VIN and it told me no update, then I read here and found this thread.
I noted some increased functionality with the RAM app and the UCONNECT app. I'm getting data that was not present previously, such as mileage fuel level, and tire pressure.
My radio was stuck in a non-boot state and would not correct. So I will see what happens, crossing my fingers.
So I guess, I have made my first official mod.

Update
I have now been on the 40.1 operating software for several weeks. I no longer have any problems with the XM loading screen and nothing working.
So once again thanks to all the folks that made this possible.

I've noticed a few other tweeks since movingg up a few versions:
- there's a few new features to the nav UI, namely the top right menu button is now "stop navigating" which cuts a step out of stopping nav and I like more
- system boots at start up about twice as fast, changes pages faster
- travel link pages aren't completely useless. I could never get the weather maps to load before , now they pop up in seconds

My weather radar maps started working with the 39.7 version.

Yeah I think I was on 34 before

Haven't been able to update mine. Keeps giving me an Error 01.

Apparently my radio needs to be replaced. After I noticed it coming on in the middle of the night off and on for no reason, I tried to update it to see if that is what it needed. Never would take the update, so I brought it to the dealership. They are telling me that the radio is bad. Hopefully that will fix the whole deleting my favorites on my phone issue.

Mine was when I was on v34, since moving to v40.1 I get gas prices, weather maps, etc quickly

I updated mine from 39.7 to to 40.1 right before a 3000 mile road trip. I didn't really notice any functional changes but I did have the unit lock up on me once, requiring me to pull over and power off for a few minutes to reset everything. Nav stopped updating the location on the map so we missed one of our turns. I could still switch between Apps and see all the template info but the actual content on the screens was missing.

I've always been impressed with the Navigation system in the truck but after this trip, I finally see what other's are complaining about. It just depends how you use it I guess. It's always been perfect for short local trips around Georgia and South Carolina but we wanted to track a specific route to avoid major centers and had to get creative to get it to track correctly. It has multiple functions to avoid and detour but the only way to specify a route was to key in additional waypoints. What would have taken seconds on Google maps took 20 or so minutes in the truck. Not the end of the world but I will plan it all out ahead of time from a computer so it's just a matter of punching in the waypoints.

My wife is normally the navigator, and a damn good one at that, but she took a back seat since my father-in-law has driven this route several times. Well the man has the attention span of a squirrel and missed several key turns. We ended up going through Washington at rush hour on a Friday night on the way up so I knew I had to have the return trip mapped out before we left.

I dont use the factory Nav, simply because it's a **** app compared to Google maps. Way outdated, even with the most current update. clunky interface. And not as simple to use.

As for TravelLink, after updating to 39.7 and now 40.2 the weather maps work, fuel prices work, although I use gas buddy for fuel prices.

What I was looking for was a way to map out the route on a PC or phone app and send it to the truck. I discovered today that was a paid feature of XM Guardian. I also discovered that Guardian is different than Travelink and is not what came with the truck for 5 yrs.

Looks like I need to start using CarPlay and google maps.

Can someone send me version 40.1 when they can?
