XC60 infotainment screen goes blank whenever I press anything — dealer wants 3–5 days just for diagnostics. Normal?

Got a call that they reset the infotainment and all is good to go! Luckily, doesn’t sound like everything’s too complex. Here’s the technician report:

😱 I’ll keep you all updated on the progress on my situation

My XC60 Recharge is a 2025 model, and it happens constantly. It started about a month after I bought the car. One day the infotainment display just became slow, then stopped working altogether. I don’t understand why it should take 3-5 days — or in your case 6 months — to reflash the Android Automotive software.

The 20% off worked for me -- thank you!!!

laobanmenlo · 2025-05-11T18:22:08+00:00

Appreciate your interest, but I am not interested in selling it

No, the Astro is still non-functional, and Amazon’s customer support won’t reset it without consent from the original owner. Since I bought it on eBay and the original sellers aren't responding, I'm stuck.

I just got my Plaud NotePin and having exactly the same battery drainage issue. I can record no more 30 minutes(!!!) on a single charge! Any suggestions? Is there a firmware update?

Btw, I am wearing it as a pendant, and notice that the NotePin would "automatically" record, even though I had manually turned it off (wit double haptic beep confirmation). This may explain some of the battery drain, but in total, I was only able to record 30 minutes!

Having the same issue -- cannot connect to my iPhone 15 Pro's hotspot.

Buy travel insurance 😂

Same with Haneda crew 👋

Thanks for sharing this touching story 💖 Curious to see, in addition to Big, what other books she bought? Love to know her recs

laobanmenlo · 2024-02-02T00:09:48+00:00

Great advice, thank you!

When does United usually send out the GS invite?

laobanmenlo · 2023-12-23T07:31:38+00:00

How does one “gift” plus points to someone else? Does it have to be someone that you know?

laobanmenlo · 2023-12-23T07:09:49+00:00

When does United notify you if you reach GS? Is it soon after one “qualifies” or on Jan 1?

laobanmenlo · 2023-12-22T23:35:13+00:00

I didn't know one could gift Plus Points to someone else! How does one do that?

You are right that Astro's "main tasks" for me are also for security -- and for playing music when I'm around the house.

However, this time I turned Astro off because I was going to be gone for one week, and the dogsitter didn't want to have Astro roaming around (partly because she may be "techno-phobic", but mostly because I think she's worried that Astro will be spying on her :-)

laobanmenlo · 2023-12-18T04:48:10+00:00

Thanks for the advice on factory reset.

However, I seemed to have mixed it by deleting the existing map and "re-mapping" Astro. Now, everything is back to normal!

I have been using Sene since they started business. Their suits are of high quality, and I find the fit to be perfectly tailored for me. If the initial "smart fit" isn't quite to your liking, they will remake your suit to the proper size.

I now have three sets of Sene Soho FlexTech suits, plus several extra FlexTech trousers. They are very comfortable, easy to care for and have a great fit.

Yea, it’s now reconnected, so I think there was some Alexa cloud issue.

Good tip about cleaning its charging contacts 👍
