I believe that is a jtag port. I have all the tools/mdi, tis, and about 100 extra modules if you need any help.

 

Is it possible to download an update from TIS and share for us to look at?

HMI Software GMG2_12.6N146.4 and GMG2_12.N185 for the MY14 and also GMG2_14.1F105 for the MY15 if possible! Thank you!!

its not that simple. the software (allegedly open source) can be downloaded to a usb for updating a module, but I can't specially select those exact versions. We would need to find a vehicle and module combo that currently calls for those files. each group of files would be 1-3 gig approx so would need drop box or ftp

Can you get us any update doesn't matter what version? I will set up a drop box for you if it makes it easier. And if you need I can give you my vin number which has MY14 and navigation

And from what I understand is that the software in the hmi is updated through the use of an MDI and GDS2 through service programming software?

the calibration is updated through the mdi. software update initiated through mdi, but applied with usb. gds2 does nothing but report current conditions/software levels

I have lots of vins, but the files produced will be only the latest versions for those vehicles and I believe they are heavily encrypted. I was looking into the possibility of producing a file using a vin and then modifying the file to switch the vin to a different one as desired

I think we are on the right track.. we just need the file that is on the USB drive for the update. Then we can try and decipher it and then change the parameters, modify whatever we want, etc. Then we will have to figure out how to get it back onto a HMI module. Also is there any information or schematics available on your end for the HMI module?

I have all the external schematics of course, but nothing on interior. if you do a google search, you will find a teardown of the hmi and chipset details from bosch I believe

I have a 2015 Silverado. Is there an app available so that I can get the maps from my cell phone to display on my 8" screen? I don't like Onstar and i don't want to buy and install the factory navigation.

    • I started with a folding cover by BAK PAC on my 2500. It went bad after close to 5 years. Bent and vinyl coming loose. Contacted BAK and they gave me a very good discount on a Revolver. Had it a number of years. Mostly outdoor storage. Some garage storage. Vinyl started to come loose. Still under warranty so they replaced to cover. Sold the 2500, bought the 1500 and got another revolver for it. Had it a couple years now and no issues. I store it indoors. Got a bit of discount when buying it as well. If you are seeing problems, contact BAK or real truck and let them know. Customer service was pretty good. But I think they changed their warranty.
    • I agree, there is no one answer fits all as every rig is different, one may be pulling some little aluminum fishing boat while another is towing a monstrosity that weighs a lot and hopefully the owner if the rig has some prior experience to know what drive mode they should choose.    It also struck me and this is from watching a few of those boat ramp escapades videos in the past, Ford being one of the vehicles that has the auto front axle hubs and sure enough its found out that one hub has crapped out and won't engage and may not have manual hubs to even select on both sides so they are on the boat ramp stuck with no four wheel drive and spinning .... they flat out need a tow to get up the ramp and deal with the vehicles new found issues. That can happen to all brands of pickup, finding out either four wheel drive or 4 low isn't working right at the time its needed it to work as some electronic crap has failed. 
    • Its possible you never had the joy of the crappy boat launches we tend to have around here or really some of them are just grades down to the river if its a river scenario and the conditions change all the time with the river levels and silt deposits. Some of the lakes we went to years ago, there was no such thing as a cement pad that went down into the water that the trailer stayed on, it was gravel maybe up to the water line and then duck crap much beyond that so sinking the boat tires into mud. Of course some of the more established lakes had a cement bar type boat ramp but sometimes it was covered in green slime closer and certainly within the water and a two wheel drive had all sorts of fun if one had to touch that slime with the rear tires.    A neighbor of mine had made a comment years back with his chev truck that was probably about the same year as yours but a half ton extended cab 4x4 and he a a fiberglass boat with an inboard so it wasn't a feather weight and he had gone out to one of the large popular lakes in the area and don't ask me how this happened but he was in two wheel drive as he figured he didn't require four wheel drive for that boat ramp and somehow upon pulling the boat out he twisted one of his drive axles. I suspect it must have spun and then grabbed on the cement ramp and shocked it to the degree of twisting it. He would have had the standard 8.5 or whatever it was axle housing as the 9.5 ring gear like my truck has also has larger drive axles as far as I know. Anyway he was feeling a vibration driving home and had it checked out and a shop found that the tire/hub was wobbling because of the axle had twisted so in went a new drive axle. After that bad experience he said he made sure to put it into four wheel drive to lower the stress on the rear axle. Of course that is where an HD truck can handle a lot more stress and no doubt these newer half tons with their larger ring gears probably have larger drive axles as well to match vs back in the day. 
    • Desirable - as in does someone WANT one, aspire to have one. Could reasonably buy any car they want and CHOOSE these instead.    I didn't watch the video, why did they win?
    • The use of absolutes like "always" to describe gear selection, and giving free advice at a boat ramp sounds like a recipe for disaster. It's a boat ramp, not a farm, for starters.   IMO gear selection should depend on the obstacle. If low range is working and this is a slower speed, controlled ordeal, I'd keep using that.
