OS 3.0 and Wireless CarPlay / Android Auto rolling out
#61
Double locking (aka superlocking in some countries) is disabled in the US anyway - you can always open at least the front doors from the inside, for the same silly safety / liability reasons that also prevent Land Rover from enabling global windows close around here - so it should make no difference whether you push the lock button once or twice. You do need to make sure all your windows are fully shut, however. A tiny crack is sufficient for the update routine not to start.

@sblvro - I'm not sure, but I recall reading a post where it said you needed to be on 2.6 or 2.7 before going to 3.0. That may be what's going on. Then again, my aged memory isn't what it used to be and it could be any reason!

I don't believe any of the native apps (weather, Spotify, Deezer, TuneIn) are going to work with the car connected to your phone's hotspot, all of them requiring a valid "Online pack with data plan" subscription (through AT&T in the US) via the optional built-in eSIM card. But Android Auto and CarPlay should have their own versions of weather and all those music apps (plus a bunch more), no?

So far, so good
I got the update yesterday. I was using Carlinkit previously. It seems to connect MUCH faster than Carlinkit. And, seems to work quite well.
Occasionally, if I unlock the defender before starting it, and wait a few beats too long (eg 2-3
min), it seems to not quite connect the CarPlay. Carlinkit did the same thing, so it’s not LR, but probably Carplay itself.
Otherwise, super pleased with this update so far.
