  1. App won't run on Android <12?

    Pick up a Pixel 8a or current Samsung phone ... 7 years of updates. I'd be worried about security holes in older phones that no longer have security updates...
  2. R2 Engineering Behind the Scenes: Inside Rivian’s Vehicle Design Studio & Technology Labs

    I'm surprised they didn't say Maximus would be used for the Gen3 R1...
  3. Quad Motor Rivian R1 with NACS Gen 2 Teaser (MKBHD)

    I think 10min is close enough. Most people who have tried EVs think it takes 30min...and think that's way too long compared to gas... They don't care if it's 800v or whatever underneath...just time and cost.
  4. Quad Motor Rivian R1 with NACS Gen 2 Teaser (MKBHD)

    I think they would definitely say "charges from 10-80% in 10min but they wouldn't mention 800v architecture... Agree it doesn't matter now except to people who have heard NACS is the future standard and would like a "standard" charge port even though it's less useful now... Battery tech for...
  5. My 2025 R1T Was Bought Back — Sharing My Experience with Rivian Service, Quality Issues, and Lack of Goodwill

    Which SC gave you the original runaround? Seems like that SC is horrible 😞 Also, it's super obvious they're not doing enough QC inspections at the factory and not automating enough... Hope they get that fixed before R2 or Rivian will fail as a company...
  6. How do I turn off “Approve drive to get going”

    I'd say most people expect it to work this way...the fact that it doesn't feel like a bug 😞 That said, a passcode on the screen wouldn't be a bad idea even for those other cars...
  7. Full Rivian Production Plant Tour by Out of Spec Reviews

    What stood out to me watching it is so much of the factory floor seemed idle. And not much of it was automated..some was but it looked like there were a lot of manual work stations...
  8. Motor Trend drag charging Rivian

    They're doing a lot more testing than OOS 🙂 https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/other/how-to-tow-charge-a-rivian-uh-maybe-just-don-t-do-it/ar-AA1F3wJy
  9. Unlocking the car at home is maddening

    Oops...forgot you had a Gen1. Yep, I don't think it mattered in that version. AFAIK it was added for Gen2. The Pixel 9 Pro also has UWB. I was wondering if you had a Samsung because they tend to be more aggressive than normal for killing off apps that "aren't being used" to save battery life...
  10. Unlocking the car at home is maddening

    OP: Curious what kind of phone you have? AFAIK, the Gen2 really wants a phone with UWB support.
  11. Apple Music and Android devices

    I think it wants to do two factor auth. Pick up a cheap iPhone for $100 off swappa?
  12. Range Rover EV

    Super bad reliability is what they're known for 😂 Sounds like a nice design at least...hoping Rivian at least tests Gen3 in winter conditions more...
  13. Range Rover EV

    https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/other/2025-range-rover-ev-first-drive-this-will-be-the-best-range-rover/ar-AA1Dzl9c The snow handling sounds impressive...like they tested it well. Only 6k lbs and they stuffed all the electronics in the transmission tunnel for manufacturing flexibility but still...
  14. Gear guard alerts??

    Gear Guard for the longest time only recorded if it detects a human. Last update supposedly added motion sensing... There's no impact detection AFAIK...better to add a dashcam for that
  15. Anyone else’s compressor running like crazy since the last update?

    Sounds like you might have a leaking air suspension... Probably worth a service call ..
  16. Center & Drivers Screens Reboot WHILE DRIVING?

    It's fairly common...search the forums...
  17. Hyundai GA factory automation

    Impressive how automated this is. Humans only for monitoring, probably going to be typical for most factories in the future... https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/news/hyundai-s-u-s-ev-factory-is-revolutionary-can-it-also-be-tariff-armor/ar-AA1C1jDG
  18. Rivian motor noise

    That's normal too. What's not normal is if it's on all the time or your suspension sags after you leave it parked for a while (both are indications you have a leak in the air suspension bags).
  19. Rivian motor noise

    That's probably the air suspension pump.
  20. Rivian is more tech company than car company [article]
