    MG4 Software Update Thread

    You’re absolutely right, but there’s a significant difference here. The tweaks you're referring to are typically done by "professionals" with expertise, but what I’m seeing in this thread is people randomly taking firmware from cars in other regions and uploading it to unsupported hardware...

    MG4 Charging port lights stopped working

    My charge port lights stopped working after about a month of owning the car, and they stayed off for months. Recently, they came back on, but now the colors are off. For example, when charging, it shows a faint blue light instead of the usual solid green pulsating light. It’s odd, so I'll have...

    MG4 Software Update Thread

    Aren't you concerned this could end up bricking your cars? Different markets have variations in hardware, and messing around with the software like this seems reckless and potentially dangerous. I'm not sure we should be encouraging this kind of behavior by even discussing it on this forum.

    MG4 internet, data limits

    Honestly, I put it on coincidence. I had some ismart issues as well last week but it was quite intermittent, and it started working again before I had my data back. ismart is just really crappy some days. In two months my car will go for service and I will be sure to put this on the list of...

    MG4 internet, data limits

    As expected, today my data is back on again. Is there anything we can do to make a stand towards MG? I believe I never signed for any 1GB limit on the hotspot feature and frankly, this feature was one of the main reasons why I picked the Luxury (Trophy) over the Comfort version.

    MG4 internet, data limits

    Same issue here. I got it back for a couple of days at the start of September but it has stopped working again. I've used it to navigate with waze for maybe an hour in total, there is no way I have used up 1 gig already which honestly is a laughable limit.

    MG4 internet, data limits

    My data came back on the first of September but after a couple of days it was gone again. I have only used it sporadically so I am pretty sure I have not passed the 1GB limit. Do you guys still have data the last few days?

    MG4 Windows dropping?

    It had happen to me a couple of times (both times it was the rear right window) in the early days but I have been paying closer attention when exiting the vehicle and it hasn't happened since. I'm now fairly sure it was my user error and not some random bug.

    MG iSmart 2.0 [merged]

    I thought the same but when I mentioned it here people assured me it was not in the old app either. Not too sure what to believe now ?‍♂️

    Help with 22kW "charger", cable etc

    You guys are correct, my bad. 22 kW is 32 amps per phase. It's the 11kW chargers that are 16 amps per phase.

    Help with 22kW "charger", cable etc

    I believe that in EU, all other specs than the most plain one support up to 11kW charging on AC (3 phase 16A). In the UK for some weird reason, the car is only supplied with a 1-phase converter and can therefore only support up to 7kW. Keep in mind that a typical 22kW charger is a 3-phase...

    MG iSmart 2.0 [merged]

    Just to be thorough, are you really sure? Because the only scenario where I can recreate that the button is greyed out is when I do not tick the tiny box to agree with the terms, which is neatly hidden under your phone's keyboard when you just typed in your email or password.

    MG iSmart 2.0 [merged]

    Honestly, it has probably nothing to do with the new app. It's just that with the old app you never had to re authenticate your account, so chances are you forgot your details. If you say "won't let me log in" what exactly is happening? Do you get an error message and what does it say? Probably...

    Good point, I revised my 1 star review.

    MG iSmart 2.0 [merged]

    Are you even driving an MG4? Your profile says it's a ZS. I am willing to listen to experience when it would make sense to me on a technical level. For now, I have no idea why you'd want to me measure the current going out of my 12v battery. I'd like to understand the trick, not look at one...
