MG4 Software Update Thread

[Jockelflo]

If i have R46 with 68.4.7.0, can i stay at 68.4.7.0 if i update to R59 or its a downgrade to 68.3.4.0?

Any thoughts if the view of a reversing camera installed aftermarket (MG4 Reverse Camera No Need Program Just Plug&Play Rear Cam Box Decoder With Dynamic Parking Guideline Backup Car Interface - AliExpress 34) on the SE would be any better in R59?

In other words, would R59 show both the reversing view and standard sensor view?

If you already have 68.4.7.0 there's no need to change it to an older version

I would advise you NOT to downgrade to 68.4.3.0

I don’t think it would make any difference.

That camera disconnects the headunit from the screen and takes over the screen itself when reverse is selected.
It wouldn't be affected by any software version.

I didn't know they were out now for the MG4.. I might look into that, it would even work while Android is still starting up.

Interested to hear what changes R63 makes.

Have asked - will let you know if he replies.

It would be nice if MG actually published release notes at the same time for you know, your car!

I hope someone will post the files, because i went to the dealer last week for software updates.

My 2nd service is tomorrow. I haven't asked for an Infotainment update, but I have reported an occasional left star button issue so maybe they might give it to mine. (As in 1100R38).

Hi all, I'm in the dealership right now and they're telling me there's no software update available for my car. It's a 2023 plate Trophy last updated in August 2023. Showing R33. Are they telling the truth??

No, they're lying through their teeth.

Your Trophy is on 1300R33, not to be confused with 1100R33, which is for the SE.

The current version for Trophies is 1300R59, and it’s about to be phased out and replaced by R63.

 

[CharlieT]

Apparently they've plugged it in, and their computer is saying no updates available...

I mean, they are supposed to check version numbers and update it via USB. Sounds like they are just pressing the update OTA Button which does nout.

R46 was out last year
I think r59 came out late last year.

In future find another dealer

Oh I hope this is true. Just hope is more bug fixes than bug creations.
