Just been out and checked mine and my comment above is blown out of the water as it updated itself without any request to install the update by locking the car etc. Now it updated to OS 2.0.5 P2AR1 on 20th Nov but................
this May account for why the last two mornings I haven’t been able to remote start the car and why the app is showing that the car is locked but the alarm isn’t set even though it’s double locked........


Same - I just got the 2.0.5 update - remote start stopped working since - no notification of the update either. Though, I suspect when my screen randomly goes dark, the update is happening.

On the battery reset - do you loose all settings when doing this?

My 2.0.5 update didn't really fix anything that was annoying (to me) before. The weather, Spotify, TuneIn apps come and go as they please (well, they go as they please. To get them to come back you need to do a Pivi Pro reset.) Android Auto will connect maybe 3 out of 4 times. Speed limit signs pop up as European instead of American layouts every now and then - again, a reset usually fixes it. My auto high beams still mysteriously disable themselves in the "Vehicle" options.

Just about the only fixes that appear to have stuck so far are all connectivity options staying on (before I would often find Hotspot and/or Wi-Fi switched off, even though I had turned them on), and you don't seem to lose all the Sat radio presets every time you reset Pivi Pro. 2.0.6 can't come soon enough. 2020 NAS Defender 110 HSE 5-seater / Silver / Khaki / Black Pack / Black Roof / Satin Film / Cold Pack / Off-Road Pack / Advanced OR Pack / Comfort + Convenience Pack / Sirius + HD radio / HUD / Meridian Surround

I contacted LRCS asking them to forward my issue to the folks doing the OTA updates and LRCS asked to to send a report to an email address that Amelia at LRCS sent me. That was this afternoon.
At 4pm I tried to remote start the car but there was no change, app couldn’t connect to the car. Drove 15 miles to the local Sainsbury, shopped and came home. After unpacking and stowing the shopping I thought I’d have a look at the app and lo, the car was showing locked AND alarmed instead of just locked, alarm not set. So then I thought I would try the remote start from the app and that timed out “unable to connect to the car” but when I went to the car it’s engine had started. So it looks like JLRCRCSM has been working on the issue this afternoon. I checked the software version and that and the installation date are still the same. Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come

Tim, there are loads of variables For the app to work & connect properly
Mobile device used
Software version
Vehicle position & signal strength
Time of day
Position of moon

I have set up several hundred of the accounts for customers, it’s a dick dance if it even registers & works from the very offset Whistle My confidence has been writing cheques that my abilities can't cash for years.

Tell me! Newbridge and I together couldn’t get the 2nd app that was supposed to work to recognise my account that had been set up. I still had the app for my previous RRS which wasn’t supposed to work........ lots of to’ing and fro’ing with various departments in Warwick/Gaydon and the instruction was to delete both apps from my phone then re-install the earlier version......... it worked after that until this weekend and now it’s working again after a fashion. Just means I have to stick my head out of the front door to check that the engine has started remotely now I guess. Otherwise the car is running well and I really enjoy driving it, even though I’m only supposed to make essential trips that don’t go outside Stirling Council area or Forth Valley Health Trust area, that means I can travel some huge distances on an essential shopping trip...... Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come

Can I remote start the half a dozen nearest vehicles if I download the app and press all the buttons at once? 😂

This might be of help to those having issues with the remote app. The response is to an email I sent to LRCS and thanks to Dan and his colleagues who passed it to the right part of JLR.
It interesting some of the items in the second list of things that will prevent the app from carrying out instructions

Quote:

Thank you for your email.

I am sorry to learn of your comments.

Please may I kindly request that you follow the below instructions to ensure that your App is showing the correct information.

1. Log out and close down the app completely on your phone.

2. Take the vehicle for a minimum of a 1 mile drive. We often advise to do this on a regular commute.

3. Start and load the app once again and log in.

This should have reset you InControl App and resynchronised it to your vehicle.

Regarding the climate control please see below details that will prevent this feature from completing the pre condition settings from the App. Remote climate does not function if any of the following conditions exist:

The vehicle's fuel level is low.
The vehicle's battery charge level is low.
The vehicle is not locked.
A window, door, bonnet, or the tailgate is open.
The engine has been manually started.
A system error occurs with a required vehicle system.
A theft has been reported to the stolen vehicle monitoring centre.
The vehicle's alarm is sounding.
A crash event has been detected.
The hazard warning lights are switched on.
The automatic transmission is not in Park (P).
The brake pedal is pressed.

I would recommend that you continue to monitor the above. However, should you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me further.

Yours sincerely,



For me, my app came back to life before the above arrived and it is working fine now, albeit with a noticeably longer refresh time than previously. Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come

NAS SE Sept 18 build - delivery November 16 (dealer stock)

Mine delivered without a SW version to start with, the dealer didn't seem too concerned about it. I couldn't remote start, as the D kept telling me my battery was too low - but fired up with a press of the start button without any lag.

I thought I'd check my SW version today - and behold - without any prompts from the 'system' I'm on 2.0.5 installed 11.27 - I decided to test the remote start last night, 11.27 and it worked.

Today, drove about 75 miles and everything worked as it did before. I tried apple carplay today and it worked as I expected. Odd, that in center screen stays on the default map. I get carplay is tied to the head unit.. I've not played too much with the other aspects of the system/apps 2020 NAS Defender 110 SE, 7-Seat, Pangea w/Black Contrast Roof, Heat/Cool Khaki Windsor Leather, Advanced Off-Road Pk, Black Pk - Deployable Side Steps - Tow Pk
