We do know, because Jaguar knows:

"JLR is currently finalizing a solution that will allow the affected vehicles (to) maintain the E-Call, B-Call, Stolen Vehicle Tracking, and Remote functions..."

 

If someone came up with a simple gadget that converted 3g to 4g or even 5g trivially....there would be a lot of customers (we are not alone, so someone will figure out a solution soon):Found this list.... The missed JLR.

Er, see post #56 above ....

 

Where is the 120V AC outlet in our Fs, that the Cellbounce device needs for power?
The specs say that the power cord is only 6 feet long...

 

If you are serious, you could add a small inverter - presumably the power load is small.

 

I really should read more carefully. Apologies for being me.

However, if they've got the technology, and can see an in-car market waiting ....

 

Looks like it’s 12 volts so no need for an inverter.

 

While in theory using a 2G network as a solution sounds good, in reality not so much. The only remaining 2G network in the U.S. is T-Mobile. It is scheduled to be shutdown in December 2022. The solution would be shortterm at best. AT&T, Verizon and Sprint have already shutdown there 2G networks.

Nice Catch! I didn't notice that when I originally found that site. Should be interesting to see what they come up with. Also of note, "CellBounce 3G-to-4G radio conversion solution certified for use on AT&T network" Which is a plus since we know we're using AT&T already!

 

helllo
I wouldn't depend on the dealerships to help. After receiving my 2017 S, two local dealers were unable to assist me in updating my GPS. Jaguar's entertainment and navigation systems were poorly conceived. There is no uniformity, and the owner was clearly not taken into account during the design process.

I could have written this word for word. I have experienced the same thing with my 2017 S AWD BDE. The Jag navigation and infotainment system is very poorly designed, and the dealerships look at you like you are a pita for asking for help with it.

It took me literally months to get my nav updated. Finally, Bobby Rahal found the update to install and gave me a brake on the price ($165) . A&L wanted to charge me over $200 for the update (which is a typical nav update cost) IN ADDITION to $250 for labor. Rahal at least didn't charge for the labor, but I had to destroy an entire half day waiting around their lounge.

A good high school student could have done a better job on the Jag software integration. Very disappointing.

 

Well if you read the 6 foot cord you "must" have also seen the 120v or 12v DC... ohh wait let me guess your car doesn't have 12v DC also?

 

The comment you're responding to is nearly two years old..

 

Does the remote start from your cellphone still works? I am unsure if the car will still allow me to use the In control touch pro apps through a wifi connection instead of the 3G. Have you tried this?
I have a 2017 XE, also with the 3G module

 

I have a 2002 Jaguar and the Navigation system works fine. Remember the GPS always knows where you are the “upgrade” is just a map. Ofcourse if you live in a new city it takes more steps like adding a lot favorites etc…

 

I had my telematics module updated to the 4G version from my JLR dealer back in January under warranty (I have a 2018 FT-R). All was well until I needed a battery replacement a few weeks ago. After the battery was replaced my remote functions for InControl stopped working. The dealer then had to order another module (not sure which one), but eventually got all the InControl functions working as they should.
The solutions are available if you are working with a competent service department….. and a generous tip to your service writer on every visit seems to always get me a loaner car, great service and results, as well as a nice wash and detail on my car upon pickup 👍

 

This is an old thread, but I'm hoping people have better solutions that my dealer gave me. My 2017 F-type R stopped reporting my location information around February 2025. The dealership said it was because of the 3G network shut down (I live in Florida, USA). They checked with the engineering team and tried to do a software update, but it had no effect (of course) and they recommended the software disabled the module so it wouldn't accidently shut down the ignition system (apparently that happened to a few customers). Has anyone had any success with upgrading the TCM to 4G? I'm really disappointed that Jaguar would leave their customers in the lurch.

 

Sorry to hear that and I'm offering no solution here, but the 3G network is still working here in Illinois (one of the few things that does, not I'm angry about the politics of that statement or anything related to it ).
