So many things in there! - Sodertalje - 02-06-2023
There are so many options in there. The ones I found interesting:
079 CAR SHARING FUNCTION
105 WELCOME & GOODBYE LIGHTS TYPE
149 ROAD SIGN INFORMATION (with or without speed adaptation?)
166 EXTENDED SPEED INDICATION (That will probably give you miles and km/h)
235 PHONE AS KEY (Can we use our phone instead of a car key?)
315 DRIVE AWAY INFORMATION (What is this doing?)
455 MIRACAST AND MIRRORLINK FUNCTION
484 LOGO LIGHT
504 TRAFFIC LIGHT ATTENTION
Has anyone tested these functions yet?

079 - I believe this is for the newer XC40 but as I can see, US Volvo removed the feature. In Europe I believe still exist
105 - I only tried Light Signature but doesn't do anything. This is the next one to try
149 - i think this will be for the Speed Limit function before ACC. On mine, I can activate it and will go up to speed if its sees changing. I have it at 08, as without but still works
166 - might be
235 - i think it goes with Car Sharing. For that function you need the Volvo on Call only so it needs a phone as key
315 - wouldn't this be as a Theft Protection? Lets you know when it moves. Or might be for the Car Sharing as well
455 - as a CP/AA alternative. Mirrors you screen instead. Don't know if it works
484 - it says something about Lynk&Co. Also owned by Geely. They might have an LED Logo
504 - Doesn't work on mine. Maybe with HUD? I get no info in drivers display (as per my other post, ran a red light and still nothing)
Update: 079 - in Germany we also don't have it anymore.

I believe Phone As Key also needs NFC door handles. This was the same as my old Audi. Standard keyless wouldn't support it, you needed the NFC kit.

I saw video on YT about phone as key feature... as seen there is some features in VOC app on phone, so... i think volvo servers should know, that the car has this option.
Video says, that it works through bluetooth.
I have an immo on mom's car, and it has this option - i can use my phone as immo tag, but immo's app should be running on phone...

One thing to keep in mind - much of this is built from PROTOTYPE information i.e there are functions that will simply not be available on your car or any other in the range for that matter. They might have been trialled but never made it to production.
Example: Night Vision.... It's in the list. There is no Night Vision on the CMA / SPA platform, and turning it on does absolutely nothing!

455 - Just tought of something. If we get mirrorlink to work, we could have a CP/AA alternative in maybe fullscreen?? The bad thing is that you have to use your phone instead of the IHU but you would be able to set the destination or a movie and not using while driving. It could be a thing. Just like those special boxes that integrates CP/AA on non compatible systems. Seen on Volvo as well, you have to double swipe down for the interface and its full screen. There are plenty of car-launchers on Play Store to use.
Just an idea...

Good point bud. I would also add it's not necessarily "prototype" info, at least my guess ;-) The "config block" this 500 item config system, is common on Volvos going back many years... it's quite universal, so it supports every possible car that Volvo makes or has made.
I've always suspected the "autonomous vehicle" config is for the Uber self driving XC90 fleet use in Arizona some years back...

It isn't always the most reliable as the phone tends to put the polestar app to sleep. You then can't open or start the car until you open the app again.
If you allow the app to stay active all the time it drains your phone battery.
Happy to send through my config.

Mirrorlink is all but a forgotten relic with the demise of HTC, LG smartphones, and even Samsung has abandoned this technology.

Official yes, most of brands abandoned, but still used by some other apps for casting, and still available as option at BMW mirroring screen, and some other brands, but most of famous phone brands not support it on their newest models, but can be tried by some other apps for mirroring phone, tried in BMW few months ago , not so bad, but didn't test much, not remember exactly of name, but look for something like mirroring app at playstore.
