Map Version 12 is out

[milind]

In a non-Ultimate car, correct?

Yes. Sorry. Must have missed the context that you were talking about the Ultimate Maps upgrade.

Not sure what AA or ACP is? ACP = Apple car play?

Android Auto (AA) and Apple CarPlay (ACP)

Here are a couple of pics

Thanks for the context. Man, i was hoping this was that big change a lot of the Ultimate owners were waiting for. I would gladly pay for that to be honest, even though others got it for free.

Second that...

It could be my phone but I found AA to be super annoying, and its laggy and slow, this is on my LG v20 and 2018 loaner, maybe it's not working properly for me?

 

[CarlitoGR]

I used it in a Hyundai Sonata rental when the Genny was in the shop having the PSB Error. I loved it. But I also have a Pixel 2 XL so some phones might work a bit better than others.

You didn't get the Ultimate. Right? Then, you don't need to spend a dime. You will need the original SD card that came with the car. I tried using a different one because I was terrified of screwing up the original and it wouldn't work. I first copied the files from the original to the new one. When that didn't work, I cloned the SD card. That didn't work either. I finally just installed the update on the original SD card.

It's an extremely slow process. Get the software from Android Auto Vehicle Software Update | MyHyundai.com. Your dealer should already have done that. But once you get registered, you should just download and install it.

I have really no idea why they included the whole map update. I use Android Auto so never need the built in map anyway. I'd have been perfectly happy just updating the system to AA. Anyway, it was a one afternoon thing.

Well...some progress...now when I go to myhyundai and enter in my VIN, it doesn't reject me out of hand. It lets me enter all of my info and then gives me a "Yo! You can't sign up for BlueLink here! Contact your local dealer!" and doesn't save the vehicle. Until I can actually save the VIN to my profile, I can't get to the screen that lets me download the update. Ugh.

Well, I DID get an email from Hyundai yesterday saying that they got the paperwork I sent them, and that it'll take a week or so for everything to come through...

A week or so. Wow. It took less than an afternoon when my dealer set it up. By the time I came back home, it was already available.

It works pretty well on my Pixel 2 XL. But there are definitely occasionally glitches. About one in every 15 times, it's really laggy. I restart the phone and no lag whatsoever.

I have two repeated problems.

Occasionally, the music volume just drops drastically. The other problem is that after I hang up from an incoming call, the music starts to play again, but there is no sound. This happens almost every other time.

I haven't Googled it to check if it's a common problem. Could be a problem with my cable.

I bought my car from a Kia dealer. And they were waiting for my credit union to send them payment before they filed certain paperwork. The former is probably why it hadn't happened yet.

I got the check from my Credit Union before going out shopping. That speeded things up considerably and knowing that I was walking around with a check probably got them to deal faster as well. Maybe.

Since I didn't know where/when I was going to buy my car, my plan was to finance it through the dealership, then refi through the credit union. Turned out that the dealership held onto my paperwork so that the credit union could just pay them directly.

Stupid myhyundai still doesn't work for me. It walks me through the whole process of registering the car on their website, and then at the end says
Blue Link enrollment must be completed at your Hyundai Dealer.
Please visit your local Hyundai Dealership for enrollment assistance.
even though I hadn't been asked about Blue Link at any point in the process. And that kills the process. I suppose it'll straighten out in a week or so. Just annoying at this point.

Sorry I'm very new to the Genny community, (noob wave). I've also never had a navigation system.

You're telling me that the maps don't update regularly?
What if there's major highway construction nearby? Like huge swaths closed?

Assuming the nav would be useless if it's not up to date.
There's no OTA updating going on there?

Looks like I'll be using google maps on my phone when I get my 2015 3.8L V6 Genny on Saturday!

 

[Alfer]

Yeah free updates would be nice, but just like their BlueLink system, they want to do their best to milk owners wallets after the sale. Thankfully I have a Garmin with lifetime updates and also thanks to Android Auto, I can just use Google Maps right on my cars touchscreen.

Far from useless. I've been using built in nav for quite a few years now. Never had a problem from construction or anything else. You can update quarterly, but at a cost. Most of the update in any nav (such as Garmin) is the POIs more than actual roads.

They don't move roads around much so I've always been able to get to my destination. Try it, you may like it.

The update discussed in this thread is a downloadable version update with additional features added (POI, etc.), not the ability for the software to update real time situations when in use.

The native nav does update to real time situations such as road closures and traffic with the Sirius traffic data option. That is a subscription service.

 

[1FstYota]

I have never had a problem with NAV and XM data for traffic, and I'm on like a very old version too. Maybe that's why ACP and AA doesn't appeal to me. have that knob to change music and HUD alone is worth it.

 

[sgrenald]

Finally was able to do the download/install (took 3+ hours). Popped the SD card into my car, and the Genesis didn't like the update.

Did this happen to anyone else? I assume I'll have to do it again tonight
