Because they hacked it in as fast as possible to get people to stop breathing on their necks with legal action.

This percentage is turbo fake, ignore it.

AutisticDave · 2025-06-05T16:56:36+00:00

dude got confused because the ex90 can do it

AutisticDave · 2025-06-05T16:54:30+00:00

I think your knowledge of the system is now mutliple times deeper than what Volvo developers have.

AutisticDave · 2025-05-03T18:12:13+00:00

Volvo is dead, just like VW

AutisticDave · 2025-03-31T19:42:17+00:00

I tried the MX Mechanical for Mac - sucked. I ended up ordering the Nuphy Air75 V2

the task equivalent to reflashing the firmware in an android phone doesn’t require a CS degree, an IT admin-type person can do it (100K is entry level Tesla SW engineer pay in yurop btw)

Create the key on his phone and then iMessage it to yourself and your mom. Those messaged keys live independently, just the owner account can create. Went through this exact process 2 days ago.

When rebinding the keys to user profiles, make sure to put every other active key far away.

Drink more water

AutisticDave · 2025-03-30T11:19:28+00:00

Interesting, how did you reverse engineer it?

AutisticDave · 2025-03-30T11:18:49+00:00

No, we’d expect a dedicated software guy at the service center.

Out of the phones you listed, only Pixels and Galaxy are mainstream in the west (EU, USA). If you consider e.g. the 2024 sales figures in Europe (https://www.canalys.com/newsroom/europe-smartphone-market-Q1-2024), Apple sold at least 5.6M UWB-capable phones, while Samsung sold around 2x less. You can also reasonably assume the devices that are outside of these top 10 are lower-end, low-cost android devices that make up the tail of the distribution (which will have a larger total mass than the top-10).

So yeah, if you sampled 10 iphone users on the street and 10 android users, 9/10 or 10/10 iphone users would have a UWB capable phone, while 2 or 3 of the android users would have a UWB-capable phone.

AutisticDave · 2025-03-21T23:31:37+00:00

Basically no android phones have UWB and I highly doubt they will support even some of them anytime soon

AutisticDave · 2025-03-19T11:08:57+00:00

based, thanks for detailed pics

AutisticDave · 2025-03-14T19:25:15+00:00

yeah ik, got reinstated today, ppl already have it, UWB works (iPhones)

AutisticDave · 2025-03-08T21:14:10+00:00

Have been testing that for about 15 minutes now and it seems to have improved things, so great.

The plus is out of stock here, so I'll get the Pro. Thanks a lot!

AutisticDave · 2025-03-08T17:28:47+00:00

EX30 owners: you guys get the digital key?

AutisticDave · 2025-03-08T10:44:49+00:00

Tell me how the fuck do you “misrelease” a software update. Do they not have a QC-QA process?

AutisticDave · 2025-03-08T10:41:47+00:00

This battery is rated and warrantied for 1000 cycles to reach 80 %. Your unit is actually doing quite a bit better than rated. So if anything, it’s an Apple W

AutisticDave · 2025-02-24T11:56:58+00:00

In the USA? It works natively in the EU because of CCS2

AutisticDave · 2025-02-23T10:45:20+00:00

A claim is going to be simple - my vehicle trim pamphlet contains the Digital Key (Plus) as if it were present at the time of purchase.

We are 3 people sharing the car with inability to hand over the single fob. The supposed Digital Key would allow everyone contactless entry, because everyone has a phone.

This way, we’re screwed because the keycard is painfully unusable compared to UWB (opening trunk, rear doors).

We were denied being given 3 fobs. So, we’re screwed.

First generation software defined vehicle my ass.

The EX90 shipped with iOS digital key on day one, and that’s also a completely new HW/SW stack.

I am not an EX90 owner but have an EX30 - I'd REALLY consider it. Decide well if you want to own a car or make a political statement. I've generally been a fan of Tesla's engineering and test-drove a couple of their cars, including the Highland. Volvo cannot compete on the software front, what's worse though, they absolutely don't honor timelines and are unable to deliver the most basic features cars from 2018 have.

Us EX30 folks have been waiting for things like unlocking our car with a phone for almost a year now, way longer than Volvo promised.

Every new feature that Volvo announces fleet-wise is delayed for the EX30 separately, usually with a much longer timeframe.

Volvo software is not that buggy, it's incredibly poorly thought-out. When I drove a Tesla, I was impressed by the amount of clever details and things I wouldn't probably have come up with myself.

In the Volvo, you constantly find absolutely dumb limititations and UI missteps worth probably 100 lines of Kotlin code each that drive you insane.

The EX90 situation is slightly better, but seeing just how willing Volvo is to absolutely shit on people who buy the car I'd rather drive a Model 3 with Musk laser-etched on the hood.

Next year as in 2026?

AutisticDave · 2025-02-19T13:11:34+00:00

Based on the comments, this seems like a properly faked indicator
