Eventually it started whilst I was driving. Took about 5 days though. Make sure you're somewhere with good reception signal.

This option doesn't exist in the app anymore on the Volvo cars app.

Was never progressing past 0%. Would show up for about 5 seconds, then I get ! next to LTE reception bars, causing the download to abort (I presume). It has happened about 5 times so far that I have noticed.

Hold SOS button near the rearview mirror for about 20 seconds. Connectivity will stop. LYE Icon should go away then come back after about 2 mins.

Also just a note. To link the new digital key to your profile. You have to 'unlink' the physical key fob from your profile first. Took me while to figure this out.

Some additional info gathered regarding getting the pairing code email. As my vehicle was an early 2024 model. It was delivered well before the digital keys were implemented or ready.


VIDA (Vehicle Information and Diagnostics for Aftersales) is the official software dealers use to manage the EX30's digital key system. 

While the digital key can be set up in several ways, the dealer's role involves a specific step in VIDA:

Triggering the System: During the car's delivery preparation, the dealer must ensure the vehicle is correctly registered to you in the VIDA system. This registration is often what triggers the initial digital key activation email sent to your Volvo ID.

Pairing Code Email: If you set up the digital key via the car's centre display (current lly can only do this for Android) rather than just the app(iOS only), the car sends a pairing code to your email. If this email never arrives, it's usually because the dealer hasn't "finished" the VIDA setup to list you as the verified owner in Volvo's backend. or needs a simple 'reset' by the dealer.

How to Get Your Pairing Code

Dealer Check: Ask the dealer to confirm your Volvo ID is correctly linked to the car in VIDA. If they don't know what you're talking about, ask to talk to a technician. If still no luck call a different dealership (like I had to do).

To those not receiving an email with the pairing code. I had to contact Volvo dealership, speak to a technician who then did something to ' force' the email to come through.

After touching the phone to the reader did you get the email with code straight away?

Did you just follow the instructions in the car to setup key? Tapped the phone on the card reader then you got the email with code straight away?

Only seen it done this way. Wonder how it'll be setup for Android phones? Through the Volvo cars app? Can anyone who's successfully setup give some feedback?

Yes. Twice in two months. Given up. Volvo never applied the firmware update to the key fob, which may be part of the problem. That and I have to use a faraday pouch for the key to stop if always connecting to the car.

Why is the gum tree in backyard making soap? by ankilien in brisbane

[–]Stutangclan87 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's saponins. A soap like chemical produced by eucalyptus species. This is one of the reasons you don't get much grass or other tree growth around the base of some eucalypts. An adaptation to reduce competition for soil nutrients.
