The only way I know to do it is to switch out the HMI.  Chris White on this forum can do it for you.
Thanks!

Well...yes it is. But I'm old and I like the big screen and I don't want to have to mount...or lay....a small screen piece of crap somewhere and still not be able to see it. Just a personal preference

Did mine on Saturday. Took 45 minutes. They put a new housing plan in last year and all the roads are on it. Seem to work just fine.

Note,  Nav maps updates are misnomer, it's really mostly only points of interest.  There are roads near me that are misnamed and have not been corrected in years.

I have a 2015.5 with Factory nav. Anybody know of a company that offers an Android auto / car play update?

If you haven't contacted Chris (whiteautoandmedia.com) of WAMS, Anthony Brush of MVI (www.gm-navigation.com) can set you up as well as they are a vendor on here.  There is certain programming that Chris does for MVI.  Chris is very knowledgeable but WAMS hours are only over the weekend and MVI is open during the week.  I've been pleased with WAMS as they are currently working on something for me.  I've also purchased a few things from MVI and have been very pleased with their knowledge and customer service.  You can't go wrong with either.

Not to hijack but I have AA question. I have a 2016 and it has all the settings to turn on android auto and I have the app on my phone, problem is I never see the icon (little steering wheel) on the truck screen to allow AA to start up. Its like its there but needs an update???or is there something I a doing wrong. I have the USB connected to the port in the lower dash as the instructions tell you.

What happens when you press the 'projection' button on the radio home screen?   (press home button on radio front then press 'projection' icon on screen)

 

Did you try another cable?

Some of the earlier '16s had everything but the actual software in the radio. I had to take mine to the dealer about a month after i got it, and have them put it on (free). Case of radio ready, but not the software.

Good point. 

Programming was released and available to update early production from about Mar 2016. 

 

And on some of the last built '16s it was not available on some trucks.  Those trucks received a 'credit' on the invoice and have an rpo code indicating that. 

 

CPO    Credit, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto not available
1 - Required and only available with (IO5) Radio for orders created or produced beginning approximately mid-May and forward. The exact duration of this substitution is yet to be determined.

 

If the truck has CPO on the code label in the glovebox it will be necessary to get with MVI or other aftermarket and change the hardware in the truck.

Ok, switched the cable and found the projection icon. Pressed it and now there is a AA icon. Pressed that and now it works. thanks again guys for the info. Saw that WAZE was on of the apps that I could choose to use as navigation but after choosing destination it would not update. Bummer as I like that one because of all the warnings it supplies from other drivers. Google worked flawlessly.

I got my first map update back in August and it did not install. I had to have them send another and that did not install. The HERE company knows nothing about the product all they are is a store-front for GM. I was referred to GM by HERE. So I called GM and after what seemed hopeful I found myself connected to a person at the HERE company. So it is just a big circle jerk if you have problems. Nobody at GM and Nobody at the Here company can help. I have now a truck with no gps, weather or map because the map update software corrupted the infotainment system. NEVER buy a map update from GM because they will NOT take any responsibility if things go wrong. I have had the truck at the dealer and spent 145.00 on labor trying to fix this but no luck.

There's a guy on Ebay, OemCarAudio, that repairs GM Navigation radios.  Tell him your tale of woe, I reckon he has a solution for it.

      AFM Experience

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Question @diyer2 on this line if you please. Are you saying the shudder is the system turning on and off at the frequency of the shudder? Guess I'm asking if you are saying you have seen it do this with the bi-direction scan tool in graph mode? If so have you been able to discern the 'trigger'. Something is telling to cycle rapidly.    My truck just started doing this recently. 197K on the clock. My response has been M5 anything under 55 mph. I treat it like a lugging stick shift. Gear down and let it spin a bit. Engauge M5, then tow mode and then M6 lets the trans stay in 5th but the AFM is active. Smooth like Skippy.    My thought was that as a machine ages the friction gets lower and as the system is load based, the lower friction would allow it to turn on at ever lower rpm until it reaches the lugging point. And yes I am ignorant of any minimum rpm requirement for the system. If you know that would be useful information.    As you know I run a Scan-Gauge II which allows me to watch the On/Off of the signal to the VLOM. While in the shudder mode I'm not seeing is cycle at that frequency or at all for that matter outside the triggers @newdude posted a few years back. Now is it possible that the refresh rate isn't fast enough to catch it? Maybe. It is why I asked my first question about graphing and trigging parameter.     As we have observed from members here the failure point is all over the map miles wise as you note yourself in your opening post. That by itself begs a few questions like fellows that comment on these lifters failing even after the system has been disabled. Long after. 😬   https://www.enginelabs.com/news/tech-tips-replacing-ls-active-fuel-management-lifters-with-melling/   The Gen5 lifters operate the same as the LS versions. In fact they are the same lifter.    https://www.enginelabs.com/tech-stories/sorting-out-gen-v-lt-lifter-failure-with-a-simple-valvetrain-fix/

      14-18 Sierra 1500 Heated Steering Wheel Help

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      UPDATE 2: Steering wheel control backlights and control of the cluster can supposedly be achieved by adding a wire to pin 20 of the cluster and tapping it to pin 2 of the main clock spring harness. I'm going to give it a shot - will update

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By newdude · Posted

      GM Global A pickups 2019-2022 can do OTA programming for the radio.  GM VIP (GM Global B) can do OTAs for almost every module on board.  So a 2022.5 and newer pickup can do OTAs for recalls like the 2.7 fuel flow recall.  EVs get OTAs that improve one pedal driving, radio issues, HVAC issues, updated battery management software, etc.     So age of the vehicle/what GM electrical platform its on will alter what amount of updates can be pushed on OTAs.

      Upgrade to a 2026 AT4 with the 3.0L Duramax

      By Blade8971 · Posted

      Thank You.   So far my new ride is making me look like a genius for going with the 3.0L, as my first fuel refill occurred over three weeks from when I took delivery.  This engine combination is very amazing.  So far no issues and had not done a regen yet.

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I am curious as to how much fluid you put back in the transmission ( assuming you had replaced the filter to compare to my findings ) and then went through the process of warming up the trans before pulling the check plug to drain out the excess and if you measured how much came back out.    I just found it surprising that some claimed a certain amount less fluid being put in and then draining some back out. The attitude of the truck as per if the surface is level and how the trucks stance is would make quite a difference since the check plug is right at the front of the transmission.
