2017 starlink firmware updates?

Just got an LG V30 and the Bluetooth audio when playing music is terrible. It's worked fine with an LG V10 and a Samsung Galaxy S8, so I'm not sure what the deal is here. Anyone know if there have been any firmware updates for the 2017 model?

Bumping this. Just traded in my '13 for a '17 and the entire audio system got overhauled in deep fried dogshit

That address did have firmware updates for different Subaru head units. It no longer appears to work, but a few weeks ago I had checked and there wasn't an update for the 2017 BRZ.

My guess is we won't see an update for a while, if ever.

I ended up just bringing the phone back and got an iPhone 8 plus, and it works fine. I’ve never been a huge fan of apple stuff, but it’s been good so far.

So is the only way to update the 2017's is by going to the dealer now? You can manually trigger it and it'll look for a USB drive but I just don't know where I'd go to find the latest update.

Currently I'm on version '215' not sure what's the latest is.

Believe that is the case. We have had the wife's 17 Impreza back 4 times for updates since September. I have never experienced such screwed up HUs as these Subies have in any other car. Never know exactly what the thing will do every time you start the car. My favorite was when we came back to the car at 7PM, after shopping for an hour and it tried to tell us it was noon of two days in the future. I looked everywhere for the flux capacitor but it was nowhere to be found.
