1.5.2 update

[Wolffie]

Hi everyone,

My 1.5.2 download has been stuck on 45% for a whole week now.
It’s the first time this happened. I have 5G coverage most of the time and I’ve also tried wifi. Tried resetting the infotainment with no effect, It’s just stuck there.

Anything else I can do? before heading to the dealer?

I join the chorus of protests that it's Apple only. 72% of us use Android.
I wouldn't care except the remote key is so unpredictable. What a pity.

What baffles me is that the EX90 has already received (on February 10, 2025) the digital key for Android and even allows sharing the key between different platforms.

Why providing an Android digital key is so difficult for the EX30?
Are there some hardware/software limitations of the EX30 computer system?

I've noticed that the key fob works a lot better now that 1.5.2 is properly installed. A number of things went wrong when we first drove it after the update, including erratic key fob behaviour, automatic handbrake not working and indicators not self-cancelling, and my wife (the main driver) said it was a bit dangerous. Then it all seemed to reset itself next day and returned to normal, and the key fob now locks & unlocks the car reliably Pity that the locking sound is unbelievable poor - do the software developers ever test their changes?

Following software update version 1.5.2 have noticed that the vehicle locking noise is very low and cannot be heard as you walk away and so have to recheck if vehicle has locked or note. This was quite loud but at least you new the vehicle had locked. Anyone know if there is a way of making the locking beep louder?
However, I do expect that we will have to wait for Volvo to include this in another software update. and if so, it would be advisable to give the driver options like
Low - Medium - High.

The instructions for the update did say it shouldn't be driven for 30 minutes after the update was completed. (I did!)

Would this have caused the issues that were then self-repaired the next day?

They lowered the noise level in 1.5 even before 1.5.2
I was hoping it would be back louder in 1.5.2 but sadly not. At the time of 1.5 I emailed Volvo CS and they replied to advise me that prior to 1.5 owners had complained the noise was too loud for the leafy suburbs so it was lowered to a level only detectable by bats and dogs. Thankfully for me at least and other iPhone user the digital key now alerts you on the phone with a haptic and audible alert when the car locks = nice touch Volvo.

Hi. I’ve the digital key+ working fine on my iPhones, but have not noticed any alert or haptic notifications- is this a setting on the iPhone? Thanks in advance

[Riverfate]

I’ve not noticed the notifications (alert or haptic feedback) on my iPhone. Is this a setting on the phone? Digital key + working really well. Thanks in advance

I’m only getting notifications through onto my watch. Not the phone.
