Hello, do you have a download link for the new V1.6 in the UK? My OTA update didn't work and now it's not offering it to me.

You buddy are a life saver! My system was stuck in an older version but was saying it was fully updated. After getting your files my system is now running a treat. Thank you so much mate.

Thanks for posting this. I followed your instructions to downgrade to 1.6 in order to restore adb and unlocked installer after I needed to factory restore because I messed with too many settings and ended up with a pin protected lockscreen that I couldn't turn off😂. It was very straightforward, thanks

Absolutely love your channel mate, have been watching you regularly, keep up the great work! Your content is real credit to you.

Thanks for the advice and the files. Well done. Subscribed

Thanks, it worked for me upgraded to v1.6🎉

Just did the update following your instructions (thank you!) from 2304140.1 to 2307211.1 because my car somehow was stuck at that previous version. It worked flawlessly, but some slight differences from what was described in the video: 1. Soon as I inserted the USB the upgrade started straight away without any prompt to confirm (although it did say you can unplug USB to cancel) 2. After upgrade all my side-loaded apps were still there. Hopefully I will get the prompt to install v1.7.

Thanks Xinger!!! You have done an amazing job that is helping hundreds of BYD holders. I would like to know if you have the intention and possibility of adding the next firmwares too... it would be fantastic.

How did you download the update.zip file? please help me .

Is it just me, or after upgrading to the latest version 2312, I don't seem to have the BYD Store or the Wireless Apple Carplay as mentioned in the patch log? The System Info indicates that I am at the latest version.

On my German Atto 3 I get an other screen when I plug in the USB stick. The titel is in white text "Media upgrade". In blue text "The upgrade will take some time, please be patient". In white text "Preparing for media upgrade, and unplug U disk will cancel the upgrade! ...". And also in white text "Disclamers". I don't get the screen that you have with the two buttons. I have already upgradet from V1.4 to V1.5 and now I upgrade to V1.6.

Hi Thank you for all your work with the OTA versions ! Keep on rocking ! Can you highlight the changes in the new 13.1.32.2403 ? I just Upgraded to this version - and exept the ability to update via both OTA and OTG - I could not tell the difference (I had 1.7V before)

I feel like the latest version 2312 has nothing special or I might have not installed it correctly or something, it says the version in settings but I don’t see any changes..

Trying to install the latest version in my Atto 3 after OTA update didn’t upgrade the entertainment system. So downloaded and successfully install the 2403 via USB but my version still remains on the 2310.. any clues why? Tried multiple times.

Hey there. I followed all your instructions, added some apps then upgraded to 2403. Only thing that’s not working on mine is the location tab on the app. I had to sign in again once I upgraded but it’s the same tabs on the app, any ideas? Thank you once again.

Hi, I picked up my Dolphin earlier this week, came with 2310, which is says is v.1.0 (not letting me upgrade OTA yet) trying to downgrade, but getting ‘Incomplete upgrade package information, upgrade failed!’ error, am I right in thinking that’s because sideloading isn’t available on this version, so will be stuck with this until the OTA pushes through to upgrade?

Thanks for sharing this. You drive a Atto 3 with the steer on the richt side. At my country, it's at the left side. Do they use the same update-files? Because the important icons are at the steering-side. Right side for you but they should be on the left side for me. (ex. the home-button)

2 ай бұрын

It will to a certain extent. While BYD has not officially confirmed this, if your software version is 2-3 versions old, it MIGHT not receive OTA for latest version. For example, in 2023 we has a few versions: 2302, 2304, 2307, 2310 and 2312. Example would be, if 2312 was released as OTA, and you were on 2304, you may not receive it. You will then need to manually upgrade to 2310, and wait for 2312 OTA to pop up. Again, this isn't an exact science and is solely based on what I've observed over the years. Hope this helps.

Hello. Thanks for the video and sharing your knowledge. I’m currently on 13.01.32.230520. Based on what you say in the video I have the Atto 3 variant and I’m a few software versions behind. Someone told me this is actually the date of the last received update so mine would have last updated (or from factory came with) 2023.05.20. I’ve had the car for around 4-5 months now and I haven’t received anything. When I click on update software in the Infortainment (multiple times) it says I’m on the latest version. I’m from Sri Lanka and I imported the car personally from Japan (it was a Japanese Design version) and there aren’t dealers or anyone who knows a thing about the car. Mine is literally the only one in the whole country. Do you think I’m not receiving updates because I’ve changed the country? I have the original sim from Japan and the app works just fine. I even have 2GB internet on the sim per month. Thanks mate!

@XingersTechLounge1

2 ай бұрын

There's a few issues with your situation. 1. Because you personally imported it from Japan, your car may not be be officially registered on any BYD databases. Official registration needs to happen with a legal entity in your jurisdiction, that distributes and/or services BYD vehicles. 2. Why is this important? Because your car is not officially registered, you will not be receiving OTA updates, as BYD is unable to identify your car (VIN) or your location. You mention your app is working, which is odd. This is actually evidence that your car is in fact on at least one of BYD's databases - the one they use for app connectivity. To my knowledge, OTA is strongly related to SIM functionality. Since you have SIM functionality, I think you should be receiving OTAs. Your best bet would be to join some Japan BYD groups. See if owners in domestic Japan are seeing OTAs - it could very well be the case that BYD Japan has simply not delivered any official OTAs for Japan BYDs, if that makes sense. If the above doesn't work, then you'll have to just manually load OTA by following this video - keep in mind manually loading OTA only affects the Android side of the car - it does not improve ADAS or any other functionality that is non-Android.

Thank you for getting back to me. Your answer makes perfect sense and is in fact exactly what I was thinking myself. Yes my car is registered in Japan. I’ve got a friend in Japan who purchased it from a dealer in Japan, registered it in Japan, got the app registered with the sim and everything on behalf of me. So like you said I must be having the equivalent of whatever Japan gets. And since the sim and other services work (I even get Japanese ads on Spotify and KZread when streaming using the car’s SIM card) I assume I must be getting whatever updates Japan gets. I’ve tried joining some telegram groups but it was really hard to find any Japanese ones + I’ve got obvious language barriers there barring a translator. Anyhow, thanks again mate! Keep up the great work! 👍🏻

Google "DRM black screen issue". Google Play Store won't work, the system lacks crucial Google software dependencies. Most Google apps won't work. Look up "GBox". It's an emulator. You can run apps inside GBox and it will have Google capabilities. Check out the "App Availability" section on GBox website to install apps to the homescreen - this acts as a shortcut to the real app inside GBox. Good luck.

This isn't an exact science but if your car's Android version is older than one, sometimes two versions, it will no longer receive OTA. Keep in mind OTA updates contain more than just Android updates. Downgrading/upgrading using the methodology in this video does not affect the other updates installed as part of OTA.

Thank you very much for sharing. This video segment is very useful for those who have upgraded to version 1.7 but intend to downgrade to 1.6 for the purpose of installing some third-party software. If I downgrade to 1.6 and then use sideloading to install some third-party software, and later the system automatically updates to 1.7 via OTA, will the previously installed third-party software still be present? Regarding BYD, despite having a 360° camera, there is no Sentry Mode after the care power off. The recording while driving only captures the front and not the rear, and it does not record external sounds as well. I have seen some third-party software of BYD on Xiaohongshu that support Sentry Mode and enhanced driving recording. However, I'm unsure if it can be used on Atto3. Due to my car been upgraded to 1.7, I have not personally tried those softwares. If you have any recommendations of those kinds of software, could you record a video demonstrating their functionality? Cheers!

It was made by a developer who designed it specifically for BYD vehicles. The app is currently undergoing international testing to ensure stability and compatibility with exported vehicles.

Now my car at least has the German language on the tablet and in the voice assistant. The OTA is still not running.

V1.8 But be careful when you use the term "V1.8" In Europe, V1.8 means something different to what it means in Australia. Best to refer to it as 2403, which is the latest upgrade for Atto 3. An upgrade should not have reset your system. Something else happened.

1. Upgrades do not affect already installed apps. Only if you factory reset. 2. Watch my other video titled "For your driving safety...." - this method of sideloading sticks around after softwate update. Only factory reset gets rid of it. Then, use a Google Play store client like Aurora Store to download latest versions of your favourite apps. 3. 2307 can already sideload APKs. No need for downgrading.

Correct although if you really are on 2307, you will not receive the next OTA which is 2403. You will need to manually upgrade to 2312, if you want to have the 2403 OTA popup in your car. Otherwise, you can mention it during your next service and the service centre can also bring your car to the latest version. Hope this helps.
