I think what you said is correct for the USA. It seems like US, it must be OTA, but for Canada there is a website to allow USB key updates.

 

Wouldn't that present a problem for those in the US that don't continue with the APP? or could we use WiFi from home to get the latest update?

 

Even if you don't subscribe, I think the 4G will continue to work and updates should still be OTA. You could connect to Wifi and do the update that way as well.

 

I thought that was the reason for the $16 charge to pay for the OTA cellular charge.

 

My NX 450+ got the update as well.

 

I will give it a try pulling the JSON when I have a chance.. still revising my home-network

Ultimately OTA is the way to go without messing the system or potential corruption during the flashing.

 

I've been trying a few days, but it looks like the website is not working from Lexus. Always getting 500 error when uploading the json file.

 

Lexus Dealers are happy to help

Are we still discussing the 2050 software version update? Please tell me there hasn't been an update since then.

 

Didn't someone mention 2170 as a new update? If so when can we expect to see that? Can we force the update? If so how?

 

I didn’t even knew that there was an update post 2050 version. I’m thinking of having the dealer update the software when I go in for the 10,000 mile service.

 

According to Lexus, 2170 is the next update with OTA. Do not know when it's coming out, but cars coming from the assembly line should have 2170 already.

 

Since I read about the 2170 update I went to check on mine for software update and I keep getting this:

Error 101 “Unable to update the software” pop up....

I even restarted the system still no go and the prompt keeps coming up... Haven't got any update since I got the car from May 2023... so sad.

 

Looks like we have Lexus Server errors again in Canada. Same issue we saw a few weeks ago when the Remote connect no longer worked. I think you are getting the same behaviour as this video


I just checked my app, and I cannot see the status of my car and don't know how much it's charged. So definitely issues with the Lexus Canada servers again.

To solve this error 101, connect the car to hotspot or wifi and press the software update again. It should not give you that error.

 

Possibly caused by this:
