You need to join the slack group where you may be able to get hold of a very beta beta firmware for the MG5. I have no idea how to share the group details but it is called MG EV Hackers. @mikeRES ?

To use iOS I had to register with openvehicles.com, the other server, Asia or is it Anericas? That works fine with my ZS EV.

As I mentioned above the data is pretty meaningless if you are not at 100% SoC as that is the only figure we can use to compare.

This ties in with what the OVMS guys were thinking plus what @MilesperkWh also said a while back.

Just a note about battery voltage. Unless the car is at 100% state of charge with no load on at all they are meaningless. The only figures you can use to compare are when it is at 100%.

I don’t think there is anything sinister going on. Protecting the battery, giving us more regen where it is useful and faster charging speeds are a definite bonus. We haven’t lost range or capacity and my SoH did not change from before the update.

@JodyS21 this is my OVMS output from my last charge a couple of weeks ago before I moved. The car has barely been used since then.

I don’t know if this has been answered, there are too many pages to look through I gave up the will. OVMS also reported 96/97% when fully charged on the old software. I believe that it now has a 6% top buffer and 3% at the bottom. MG just shifted from 3% at the top & 6% at the bottom. Gives...

Either use the edge version, or get hold of Michael Abbott’s beta version on https://discourse.mymgzsev.com/ Plus join the slack group. I can’t remember how!

You using the edge firmware? Or Mike Abbott’s one?

In theory, though sometimes it needs a restart. It is a computer.....

Nope. I’m Mike Procter. I was just one of the first to join the forum :rolleyes: Mike Procter

I thought I’d posted about OVMS previously :cool:

Not an option for me as I have a profile, so I can access one of the companies I work for, secure apps via iPhone, which prevents this option appearing. Staying on only works where the individual app allows it like Tom Tom GO Mobile.

Not an option on my iPhone.

Yes. But if your phone is like mine, the screen turns off after a short time, but it still works fine.

70% remaining SoH!
