Just to verify it is the latest update, I downloaded separately from the Rostra website and all of the file values have the same change date. It appears last change on the files was 4/28/17. I was really hoping I didn't have the latest update...not so.

I installed this update yesterday and am sad to report that it also does not fix anything for me. In fact, it made things slightly worse. I get a blue screen for my left camera most of the time but I can manually select it on the camera app page. After the update, the blue screen still appears when activating the left camera and also when manually selecting it. I've only had one day to test the new software update but it looks like it's a complete fail...again.

It's frustrating that these updates seem to do nothing to fix the problem. I know I read that they were testing this for a month, but I wonder what their test vehicle is. It seems odd that it appears to work only for them and no one else. Has anyone else here installed the update?

Which update are ya talking about?

This weekend I couldn't get anything but a Black Screen and again this morning when I dropped my truck off for an unrelated problem...I can't get it (normal screen) to come back no matter how many times I do the off-on-open-close door trick.

This is frustrating. They should do a buy back program or refund .
