So is the complete r63 package ok to install?

Installs fine. Just remember R63 has the issue where you can’t adjust the charge level from the car - but you can still set charge level in app.

I had my MG4 xpower delivered a couple of weeks ago with R63 installed. It had a problem with the maps so the guys at the dealers suggested me to do a factory reset for some unknown reason.
Of course the weather now doesn’t show and errors with “Implementation is falled, please try again later”
Also in the user menu section the items sent from the app like the poi/travel plans/message errors with :“java.lang.NullPointerException: interceptor b.i.b.b.a.a@ff95747 returned null”

So with the R63 leaked on here, I went back to R46, factory reset, and set everything up and it all worked fine, weather, user section etc. Upgraded to R63, the weather worked for about an hour but the user part did not work and carried on with the java error.

Kind of given up. Dunno if it’s worth going back to R46 then R59 then to R63.

@Mouss had the same problem. Apparently, he managed to sort it out with a full reinstall of the MPU.

I have exactly the same problem when I flash on R59 or R63, the weather and the user area don't work! When I flash R46 everything works.

I always flash AVN_MPU first and then ECU, I always keep the folder structure when I have unpacked the *.zip, so vipimage and md5check in the root directory, usb-ota.zip is packed in the subfolder.

Factory Reset is carried out via the user interface

No, latest USB update package is 68.4.3.0, after that they switched over to SIPS. I think because otherwise you won't run re-configuration routes which update some parameters based on the car configuration

Can you recommend/link a good SIPs tool to use for this? I'm tired of dealers not updating

I can confirm that upgrading MCU to 68.4.7.0 via SIPS solves the the in-car charger % setting. I'll report back today if 68.4.6.0 is compatible as well (that update got released after R46 was out and I have some cars with that version already installed)
R63 also fixed hotspot for me (it was broken with R59)

Agree with @the happy bunny
They just need to plug the car to SIPS, read it and perform the right updates (FICM for sure, maybe some others)
But don't mention the R46 you installed @ntangle
