Hi

Just got my car back from the dealer as it was having a paint chip on the bonnet touched up. The iSmart app wouldn't scan the car, nor let me change the charging, so I unbound the car from it. Now can't bind it again as it is showing activated in the Infotainment setting.

How do I re-bind it?

Thank you all for your support and patience: it's fixed???.

I rang my local MG dealer, (who have been brilliant [Luscombe Motors Leeds]especially Ross Travis and the guy I spoke to this morning) and it seems that the QR codes isn't in Settings...its in User. Had to re-enter my credentials again (and connect to my WiFi), but it is now connected???.
Thanks @Ian Key Tapping this shows "Network is not available. Please try again later". I end up skipping, entering language, time zone etc. Them when I go to Settings, Activation both are ticked and tapping them does nothing.
It could be that MG's servers are down.

Great result!!
 
What does a factory reset reset?
Yes, I'd wondered that.

This is good to know.

'Factory Reset' is surely a misnomer and I had been concerned that to try it risked untold problems' My car had already been activated during the PID so was an Unknown to me. I'm more comfortable trying now, should the need arise.
 
It takes it back to the default settings and when it comes back you have to configure it again. If you use voice commands you'll have to turn it on at the bottom of the privacy policy. Can't remember a lot as I'm with my father who's poorly
