I was following this guide to enable Plug and Charge and my Macan is now with a downgraded OS which has plenty of bugs including no option to connect to wifi 🙈

- CarPlay broken
- No wifi option
- No apps
- Account not connecting properly
- Remote access lost despite being logged in
- Fun finding: There is a Calendar app that is not showing on the public version (the one I had when I picked up the car)

Can someone confirm their version, please...

It seems like the issue has resolved, though I’m not entirely sure if it fixed itself or if my three hours of debugging finally paid off. One change I made was updating the system date, which had been set to the year 2000, to the current date. I suspect the operating system may have certain date-based flags that control features, such as enabling or disabling options like WiFi in the connections menu, or hiding apps that aren’t yet ready to be released.

Soooo I guess the thread title should be changed to “Factory reset if you want, it’s all good”? 😂

I also did a reset and my numbers match yours… :clap:

Anyone who hasn’t reset theirs, please confirm. 🙏

Did you experience issues connecting your account back to the car?
