WolfieBase Posted October 1, 2024 Share Posted October 1, 2024 I own a 2023 XC60 Recharge T8. Following the recent update, it began indicating a lack of connection, however I was still able to proceed with other functions. This occurred as I approached the vehicle and when inside it, enquired an inquiry to Google. A notification appears indicating that voice command is managed over Bluetooth on a device, presumably the phone. I removed the phone and re-paired it, although there was still no success. However, I saw that the internet settings on the phone did not let me to enable internet access via Bluetooth connection to the Volvo. Typically, it established a connection after a period, or at least that is my belief. In recent days, I saw that Google Maps is not displaying traffic conditions, and last night and today, it failed to connect entirely. I saw that the WIFI or LTE icon displayed an X. It is linked to my Google Pixel via Bluetooth, and both the phone and vehicle indicate this status. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Black_raven Posted October 1, 2024 Share Posted October 1, 2024 I often need to reboot the machine once or twice after an update. I get traffic conditions on the large display just during navigation or while in satellite view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfieBase Posted October 1, 2024 Author Share Posted October 1, 2024 I disabled Bluetooth in the vehicle, which restored LTE functionality and enabled Google to operate; but, I am now unable to send text messages. I will attempt to connect Bluetooth just on the phone rather than the vehicle to see whether it is effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
another_clean_sheet Posted October 1, 2024 Share Posted October 1, 2024 This was effective for me. Initially, press and hold the home button until the screen goes blank and initiates a reload (continue holding until the screen cleaning mode notification vanishes). Subsequently, press and hold the rear defrost button until the SOS above light begins to flash. Exit the vehicle and secure it using the remote control. Wait a few minutes, then use the remote to unlock the vehicle. push the brake once, followed by another push while starting the automobile. This occurred with my 2023 S60 T8, and the aforementioned solution was effective. A Volvo technician conveyed this information to me over telephone. It is somewhat frustrating, but it has restored the system connections. Best of luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

another_clean_sheet Posted October 1, 2024 Share Posted October 1, 2024 Have you attempted the resets I referenced? It is an exceedingly frustrating situation that ought not to occur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfieBase Posted October 1, 2024 Author Share Posted October 1, 2024 I had the similar problem, and the reset was effective; however, it sometimes requires more time to establish a connection to the phone for internet access. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vitessear3 Posted October 1, 2024 Share Posted October 1, 2024 Has there been any improvement after the release of the 2.12 Update in mid-October? There were instances where versions 2.10 and 2.11 exhibited a dull or blank screen, necessitating a prolonged press of the Home Button to restore functionality. Occasionally, in version 2.12, I start driving and the radio station I was tuned onto need the Play button to be activated before any audio is heard.

WolfieBase Posted October 1, 2024 Author Share Posted October 1, 2024 Yes, it improves, however further updates disrupt the GPS functionality. The past two upgrades have resulted in constant functionality after a few days. It seemed as if the Google account was sometimes disconnected, despite my verification that it was linked to the phone and the Google account.
