OTA Updates on EQS AMG

I received these two updates in the last month.

3/15/2024 Software update for wireless charging system
"The update includes improvements to the wireless charging
function for the Apple iPhone 14 and subsequent
generations with MagSafe"

4/9/2024 Software update for drive unit control unit
"This software update for the drive unit control unit improves
the AMG specific features. It includes an increase in
robustness of the left and right steering wheel statelites, for example."

What's weird is that I have an update from:

8/24/2023 Software update for stereo multifunction camera that has not installed and I can't force it to install. My car has been to the service department where they installed all of my recalls but for some reason this was not corrected. Anyone else have notificed an issue with OTA like this?

The rollout process is strange. The Wireless Charging one was attempted and failed on 3/14. It has not been tried again since then, three weeks later.

You can manually go into the Systems and initiate the update. The technical requirement are plugged in (or some battery percentage), turned car off, and lock doors. It actually gives you about 1 minute after the hold and swipe confirmation screen to initiate the technical requirement for the wireless charge update. Otherwise, it cancels.

My update says it’s there, but it’s never ready to “continue” since it’s greyed out. What’s the secret? iPhone is my wifi connection as a hotspot but maybe that’s the wrong approach?

Check to make sure you don't have to swipe/scroll down (in the car) to agree to data handling blah blah blah. I have had to do this for some updates and then the continue button functioned as expected.

OTA shouldn't require a hotspot. Just a Connect Me subscription. I currently have no hotspot for this car.

That does not seem to be an option for me as the system report no updates available. Mercedes me shows this

This week, I have the Master's theme on the interface. it seems that OTA updates has different messages and installation process for different vehicles. Could it be that we all have different versions on the control unit. Mine is currently at RL_NTG7_E329.501_22411AC3.

There are a few different MBUX versions around. Mine is RL_NTG7-E330.602-23063AC3, the next version after E329. The following one is E445 from the MBUX 2.4 update that seems to have mixed reviews.

I was at the dealership last week for a window seal replacement (factory seal was smaller for some reasons), and the SA said that my version is the latest for my car. Who knows, I don't think MB has it together, themselves.

As of yesterday, I was running MBUX 2.4 software version RL_NTG7 E330.602_23063AC3.
I just received and installed the following OTA update today: RL_NTG7 E330.703_23472AC3. Installation took less than 10 mins.
Accompanying "information" from MB stated: "This update fixes software malfunctions, thus providing you with an improved entertainment experience in your Mercedes-Benz."
Thus far, I have not noticed any differences, however, I have not used the car since the update other than to charge it and check a few things in MBUX.
One thing I did check immediately was to see if the browser app was updated to something that Google/You Tube log-in would play nicely with. Unfortunately, the same log-in problem persists.

Weirdly, my EQB and EQS, both 2022, suddenly have automatic lane change assist. I don't find it super useful, but cool they actually added a feature. Anyone get this added? I don't recall seeing anything indicating this feature was coming.
