I switched to the nee android auto and it definitely needs some tweaking. I had some issues with my playlist through amazon music, hopefully some updates will get it fixed.

Does this update, or prior update, allow user to program HVAC settings when remote start is initiated, i.e. can you tell it what minimum outside temp must be before turning heat on or ac on?

That's not something the user has ever been able to control without a mod, including previous generations.  Updates so far have been bug/problem fixes, mostly or at least that's the main focus.

I've had that too. I tried unplugging the phone and the plugging it in again. That seemed to fix it.

I have noticed that since v805.1 update my rear seat reminder only works about half of the time I shut my truck off. I use it to remind me to close the rear slider, but if you use it to make sure your kids don't die in a hot car, be warned it may not beep at you all the time.

Anybody in here have the 8" IOR model  (at least that is what a vendor told me I have but so much conflicting info out there) and can post a picture of the version information screen?  My build date was August 2018 and the radio has never taken an update, every time I check when hooked up to the internet it just says no update.

They honestly are full of BS. I really do know a lot about this stuff.  I added the nav myself. I did the programming myself.  The hardware is all the same.  The software is all the same. What changes is the calibrations of the other units.  For example we have the capability to add fog lights if we didn't have them. That requires they BCM to have a calibration added to the trucks list showing it now has the fog lights. GM adds the registration number to the nav upgrade kit same as fog light.  The new systems are different than the old units where they had an HMI and radio unit. they are combined. When you add nav it is so complete it also update sinister to allow you to add the connected nav feature to have the traffic info. Its hard to really explain but the units calibration is really just HEX values wither turning things on or off. Thats all.  I have a lot of experience digging DEEP into these systems and deal with them daily.

 


Can you tell me how to modify the calibration to add fog lights and whatever else is possible? I’d like to dig into that stuff.

    • You must have that upgraded gvw package which is only available or at least was in 2025 with the diesel engine for the 3/4 ton and that gave the truck physically the larger 12.0 ring gear rear diff and the 3500 rear spring pack. There is a difference in what the diff housing looks like externally as one tell tale and also your truck should have the upper overload spring pack and the frame pads that the pack goes up against.    The pressure the tpms system kicks the alarm in on a stock setting truck, that is a good question and was just from what I recall but I doubt I made any notes on it as I knew for the rear that it was not at all what I was after regardless either. Being that you have a diesel and if running on stock tires the minimum pressure on an empty truck seems to be around 50 psi from hearing of those that have weighted the front axle but the rear axle is very similar in weight to a gas truck and again a near empty truck on the rear could go down to 35 pounds at minimum. However the weigh scale is the proper way to know for sure as a guide.    As to changing the readings on the dash from metric to the US measuring system, oh yes that is done easily but what I was attempting to explain was that I can't pick and choose items I want to have in US and those I still want in the metric system at the same time as its either all or none. For example lets say you drove into Canada and switched your dash over to metric so your speedometer read in km an hour, well then your reading kilopascals on your tpms readout and your wife looks over and says what the hell is that saying in the tpms screen and you say "darned if I know, I think its Chinese" !
    • This is partly why I decided to have switched over to Amsoil SS as a way of hopefully preventing the buildup of the sludge/carbon on the pistons and clogging of the oil control rings and the carbon that would cause the compression rings to stick in their grooves as well as stay cleaner up top of the heads in the valve train in the first place, an oil that has tested better by third party testing over typical shelf oil and also doing my best to run relatively short OCI. However in saying that I don't think there is any way to easily prove the oil I was using prior allowed for a buildup at the OCI I was doing, nor in the other direction to make claims the Amsoil is keeping everything clean either. There really isn't a window into the engine is there to know anything for certain even if oil samples were taken for example that showed still healthy oil being dropped out of the oil pan other than engine tear downs that extensive and expensive testing of oils does to actually visually see what is really going on inside the engine. I wish there was some easy method of seeing what is going on but I don't happen to be aware of that if there is.  
    • My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page
