Glad to become a member. Just yesterday I successfully upgraded my nav/software on my 2015 Hyundai Genesis 3.8 (purchased from original owner December '21) to the latest version. WOW what a difference! Since it was just yesterday I still haven't explored all of the differences but I'm so happy I decided to pursue and complete the upgrade. It only took about 45 minutes to complete once I did all of the preliminary stuff on the computer and got the update loaded onto the 32GB SD card. I was hoping it wouldn't take the 3 hours I'd read it could possibly take, and it didn't.
So far my favorite things are having Pandora automatically continue playing after vehicle shutdown/restart and Android Auto. The graphics look a lot better but I'm guessing that must be icon redesign because I'm sure the resolution could not have been improved. For any of you who have an older Genesis but have not attempted the upgrade I can tell you (so far) that it's TOTALLY worth it.
Here is what I had previously:
S/W VER. - ST.DH.USA.E443.140912
FIRMWARE VER. - MICOM.ST.DH.USA.0141.140605 SUBM.ST.DH.BD5.1042.140425
NAVI APP VER. - ST4.NAM.HMC.140625.59139
MAP VER. - NAM.07.43.43.003.001
Here's what I have now:
S/W VER. - ST.DH.USA.E540.220414
FIRMWARE VER. - MICOM.ST.DH.USA.2121.210825 SUBM.ST.DH.BD5.1049.190416
NAVI APP VER. - STD4.NAM.GNS220412.baee125
MAP VER. - NAM.15.41.41.545.001.3
I am happy to answer any questions about the process if anyone is interested.
Looking forward to learning more about Genesis vehicles here. Looking at the '23 GV70 wishfully at the moment. What a beautiful vehicle.
