It looks like I received it on November 9, so it's not the 2019.11.11 version, but maybe it's close?
Got a tip for us?

Yeah, I wouldn’t mind 2019.11.11 back too. This demo mode tosh is just ridiculous.

Just a thought...it’s possible for all the people getting product not activated...
I did the firmware update minutes after release and reported the demo mode bug. I wonder if it’s possible they are “fixing” the activation server currently so it works properly instead of doing demo mode.

mine activates success every time....so the server doesnt seem to be the issue here. Problem now is im on this demo crap, Demo 0 and every time the dongle cycles, I have to keep activating. But it does activate, then the issue is it won't show the CarPlay screen for me, but I can hear music through CarPlay. The previous version worked
Hmm. I’m on 21 so I might unplug it until this is resolved.
i wonder. Would it reset to 30 if you do the upgrade procedure again?

I think you need to do the "activation" again to reset. Never reached this part though.
Anyone that has not tried the update yet, better hold. unless like me, you have nothing to lose.
I hope soon they will release a non-demo version (I got 2 links, but the files downloaded are exactly the same).

Has *anyone* on here had a response from “Michael”?
i emailed an urgent one about the demo mode hours ago but heard nothing since.

Upgrade procedure again for same version does not work. Tried 3 times. Also what is version 21? Or do you mean you upgraded and now are on demo 21?
Ok. It’s just gonna keep dropping everytime it loads up and you’ll eventually get to 0
This update is completely messed up. They did not test this right. I would hold off until they can figure it out. Most USB sticks do not work and after you update it is in a demo mode.
I tried 2 different 16 GB sticks formatted FAT32 and 1 2GB stick formatted to FAT32 and it won't read it and I never get the red and blue lights. Maybe this is a good thing since this update puts you into demo mode 2.0 which is what you don't want.
Sorry if I told anybody here they were doing it wrong. You were not doing it wrong it just that the process is all messed up with this update.

Lol we are all f’d. I still need that damn 2019.11.11 file. A nice member on the forum just sent me a previous file. Probably the one before 11.11. So I’ll give it a shot in a couple hours
Yeah I would like to know if this worked too. I wonder why they don't have the previous files on their support site.

somebody post the brand of USB sticks that work. I think the brand matters.
Well that’s crap. It was risky enough buying it in the first place, then relief when it worked, and now a paperweight.
New system doesn’t work at all.

Wait. So you tried to restore to previous version?Doesn’t look like rollback works. I have an expensive black box at the moment
