Talked to GM infotainment support last night and was very happy with the way we talked through my issue and decided it was neither a problem with my truck or my phone but a problem with the communication between the two.

 

The dealer that kind of blew me off is getting a phone call from them on how they want to proceed to fix my issue and if need be an Engineer should come out to investigate.

Please keep us posted on what fixes it for you.

Its a no-go on the settings I turned everything off and back on but that probably wouldn't do anything.

Was worth a shot. I assume you've also deleted and repaired your phone as well. That's all I've got : (. Good luck and glad to hear the infotainment folks want to help.

Hey everyone, I know I'm late to this party, but I created an account just to add a possible solution.

 

Several versions ago, the concept of "Chat" was introduced to SMS/Text in Android.

 

I recently upgraded my phone (Pixel 5), and every text message received from someone with a newer phone resulted in the encoding being read on my 2015 Sierra.  I did some testing and figured out it was always someone with a newer phone that also supported this Chat feature.

 

To eliminate this, I went into the Android Messaging app and clicked the "..."button in the top right.

Then Settings

Then Chat Features

Disable Chat Features (turn slider off)

 

This turns off things like read/delivery receipts as well as the indicator that the other party is typing and reverts your phone back to the basic SMS functionality as opposed to using the Chat feature.

 

My truck no longer reads the encoding!

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      Sure, but they do have some affordable options like the Trax, Trailblazer, Envista, and Encore. Some of these have a cheaper base price than the Civic, though the fuel economy isn’t as high. The main problem is that people WANT the highest trim with all the goodies and finance for like 7 years. That’s how ppl “afford” the more expensive vehicles.

      Holy s**t - not much of a parts thrower you say? You BLASTED that thing with the parts cannon!  You'd have been probably $1,000 ahead if you had just brought it to a competent shop rather than shotgunning a bunch of parts it clearly didn't need.   Just FYI - oil additives are really, REALLY good at ONE thing ... and that's emptying your wallet. They're ALL useless gimmicks.   If that has the L94 or L99, then #7 is an AFM cylinder. I'd suspect a failed lifter in that case.   If you leaned on wiring, sensors, and/or connectors while changing the oil, you'll have to check all that to be sure pins didn't get pulled out, connectors broken, etc.. Old wire loom that was barely adequate when new is certainly brittle by year 19 - make sure wires aren't chaffed and shorting out somewhere where you might have leaned. or supported yourself on it.   If your a mechanic, why didn't you just find out what you were missing and troubleshoot from there??  TIMED spark, fuel PSI / injector pulse, air, compression.  Can't make ANY money going the parts cannon route.

      LOL! Are you joking?? That wax SUCKS! 100% gimmick made to "look" good.    After just TWO winters I had severe surface rusting in patches over 90% of the frame. Only reason it looks great in the pics is because I SATURATED the frame every single fall with used motor oil for 14 of the 16 years I owned it. Otherwise it would've been sent to the crusher 8 years earlier with the speed it was rusting prior!    I sold that POS 3 years ago. Was a gigantic headache the second it rolled off the showroom floor. Brakes pulsated on the TEST DRIVE. Door trim fell off the 1st week! Interior squeaked and rattled, and the drivetrain clunked after 2k miles. 4x4 switch failed shortly after. Front end - ball joints, struts, hub bearings - all failed between 38k-50k. Engine started burning oil at 50k. Rear and and transmission failed before 100k. Nothing but problems, and frustration with the piss-poor engineering designed to make you give up. Well, it worked! Nothing on that truck was easy to remove ... except the wheels. They haven't figured out how to screw that up yet. Give 'em time ...   I won't make that mistake again. EVER.   Such fond memories ... https://postimg.cc/K1qf23tS  https://postimg.cc/gallery/X02z64J  https://postimg.cc/gallery/mHSRXZv  https://postimg.cc/gallery/D4mMRfL

      OBD not ready?

      By davester · Posted

      Different monitors do their test only under conditions specific to that monitor.  you MIGHT find the drive cycle conditions for the monitor that isn't ready on this site: https://lemon-manuals.la/   If it's not there, then it should be on alldata.com for your truck, but it requires a paid subscription.   And you need to know which specific monitor isn't ready.
