I had the exact same issue. Same messages on the screen, had WiFi but no internet connection, apps that require data didn’t work, etc.
I was on/off with Onstar a few days. They had finally escalated my issue to a higher level of tech support.
It was getting late in the evening & I told them I was done hanging on the line with them. They said they were going to continue to look into it & they would call me the next day to further troubleshoot the problem.
By midday the following day, my problem was gone & they never called me back. Haven’t had an issue since.

Going to the Dealer on Friday morning to have the software update done. 

Did they seem receptive to you knowing about the fix already and having the TSB #? I told my guy all about it and he’s like “I don’t need that, they will just see what it does and then see if there’s any TSB that describes your issue.” Um, there is and I’m holding it in front of your face.

I took mine in about a month ago and the service guy gave me a copy of the  PIT5793.  He said GM was working on a fix and that he would contact me when one was avaliable. He called me on Tuesday and scheduled me for Friday.

Went to the dealer this morning for software update. I was there for 40 minutes and was back on the road. The problem with the app and connection appears to be solved.  No more Connection Issue.

Mine is there now. Haven’t heard back yet. I basically had to convince them there was a TSB for it and they still didn’t seem to care what I had to say. Guess I will call.

We we're told it was a Amazon app problem that's on the 2021 anybody else hear that

Amazon app problem? I’m not exactly sure what that’s referring to, but whatever it is is not causing OnStar data usage to fail to load or preventing any GM app from downloading or preventing my app from connecting to my truck.

All those issues were resolved with the radio update described in the TSB.

So glad to hear that I am not alone in this. Just bought a $66,000 AT4 and can't even use the apps. I called OnStar and they said to take it to the dealer. Called again and got someone else who acknowledged this issue and said a fix is coming soon. So, nice to know I'm not alone, at least. Sounds like "coming soon" has been going on for a while now.  WTH

The fix came out last Tuesday. A few of us in this thread (myself included) have received the update at the dealer and it is now fixed.

    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
