UX 2.5 OTA Update

[openball]

I tried skimming this thread but i know most people are talking about the sound changes. My biggest issue is my car will no longer wake from app any more. It used to take 30-60 seconds buy after 2.4.x it would wake much faster - maybe 10-15 seconds? I loved it as I often used it to open the doors and trunks for my kids.

With 2.5.0 my app NEVER wakes up the car, even after retrying and waiting 5+ minutes. I’ve tried logo reset and restarting my phone and app. Anyone else have similar issues?

The update completely broke mine. My mobile key had always worked 80% of the time, but after one update it was near perfect.
This 2.5 rendered it useless. I tried the fix to re-add the mobile key and it helped a bit. It now works as in opens the doors 50% of the time. But always requires me to enter a PIN.

I think this is the most important statement here. I know we have a lot of owners here in the San Diego area. Is there anyone amongst us who is dissatisfied with the new sound? If so, let's get together and listen to each other's cars. See if perhaps there is something wrong with yours (mine sounds great). This is going to be the only way to decide whether it is in the ear of the beholder or an actual issue.

I finally got to hear the new sound this morning. It is wildly different than what it was before the update. I'm not an audiophile be any means, but I like the old sound better. I had the general volume louder, but no matter how loud I got it before, the sound was very smooth. I don't have the correct audio vocabulary to describe the new sound, but it sounds harsh when you turn it up now. I was able to turn the other sounds down, like turn signals, which had gotten very loud. I'll second your suggestion.

Save here.

I think it is a problem on their end. Restarting the phone, resetting the car, these kind of things won’t help. This happened once before and they were able to solve it fairly quickly. Frustrating, I know.

I’m now on 2.5.0 and my app wake up works just as well as on the prior version.

Hm, that's a good data point. Thank you very much for your experience. I need to contact Lucid about a recurring door seal issue anyway, so I'll ask about the app wake-up feature in case they need to do some hard reboot other than logo reset.

I had an opportunity to to listen to the updated audio with non Atmos tracks, It definitely is very BOOMY and requires that the bass be turned all the way down and the soundstage be moved more to the rear as others have posted. I expect that Lucid is listening (ironic) to customer feedback and will update the turning and hopefully give us more than an 3 band equalizer. I presume that they are using DAP (Dolby Audio Processing) seeing as it supports Atmos. They really should get some of their sound engineers in to evaluation AQ tuning.

Are you on IOS or Android?

Generally speaking, I agree. As far as I can tell, That’s not working right now. I think the problem is unrelated to the software version of the car and a function of a problem with their servers.

Please listen to “Whip It” in Atmos. To me it’s simply awful and illustrates the harshness of the front speaker. It is unlistenable because it’s literally piercing and such a huge disappointment compared to pre 2.5. Many of us have had the exact same observation, so it seems like a systemic issue. At anything other than low volume it’s unacceptable. Fleetwood Mac Atmos illustrated the same deficit. If the sound stage remains as is, so be it , but there will be many many disappointed individuals .

I just listened to "Whip it" by Devo Atmos Tidal. HORRIBLE!!! As soon as the vocals came on I lasted about 10 seconds. Voice track way way too high and hot. Like being yelled at through a megaphone. It's not a question of volume as the general music level was dramatically lower than the vocals. I listened to the track from time to time prior to 2.5 and it was a solid track that showed off the abilities of the sound system. Something is very wrong here. A bug for sure.

Maybe there was a component change during production and older components didnt take the update properly. Either that or just something wrong in the update for certain cars in general. I have a 2023 Touring manufactured 11/22 delivery 12/22.

It's seems to work quite well on my wife's iPhone. I wonder if it's an Android thing
