    I've seen answers to these in the forum but cannot locate them.

    How can you tell if you have the latest BT Module; and how do you get one if you don't?

    The version of ALP Connect on my phone is 1.9
    Is this the latest?
    How is it upgraded?

    Thanks

    Screw this LOL stuff. If they don't find it humorous on their own, then let 'em take it seriously.

    Hit the firmware update button in ALP Connect and it will tell you.

    Before looking at an Escort Radar Detector you should really check out Uniden Detectors.. Uniden R1 & R3 are the best performing radar detectors for the money.

    I installed the new FW using my BT, boy it go's slow. It went to 100% completion without any problems. When I switch back to HIFI mode, and did a power up, it is telling me to update the voice pack.

    Yes, It will take anywhere from 7 to 15 minutes depending on your Internet connection. During this time the system will work 100% as normal so you can drive and do your thing while the update in downloading and transferring in the background.

    The current firmware update if you are using HiFi will also require a voice pack update. You will need to do that separately.

    upgrade completed on my morning drive. Super easy I did nothing but start it. I watch my LED turn colors and restart all on its own. I agree that it would be a nice add-on to be able to do setup with the APP.

    Eventually you will have all settings via BT. Its a work in progress and you need to take one step at a time.

    I did a print setting after my update and got the following results. What is the correct Control set FW version for the HIFI. I see you had labeled newest version as Control Box Firmware update: Release 5.1.4/6.4 Not sure if I am following this correctly but I guessing 6.4 is for the non-HIFI controller

    Firmware version 5.1.4
    Region North America
    Power Cycles 1289
    Control Set FW version 5.3
    Control Set HW version 2
    Activated locks not active
    Hardware version 2
