New System and MAP update v17.0 coming in May!

[00thvs]

I was hoping the update would come sooner around March/April timeframe but looks like it'll be May... Hopefully the date changes and they bring it closer!

Let this thread serve as discussion of new findings, changes, features.

These are free for teh first 5 years though right?

Yes

Free to download, but not free to order. Does it say anywhere what the changes/fixes will be, if any? Just curious.

In eight years I've had a couple of Genesis they have not moved up.

Not yet

Ordering the USB is free. The $25 is discounted to $0 at checkout. I couldn't get my own USBs to work with the November update and got the USB in a week for free. It worked like a champ. But there was nothing to be excited about after the update.

I'm prepared to be underwhelmed with this update once again.

It's probably just me, but I hope the new update allows us to change the default font. Can we class it up a bit?

Unless it has changed, they are free to order for at least the three years. Just select bill to Genesis at the end of the order process.

I was referring to having them send a preloaded USB or SD in the mail. AFAIK, downloads are free indefinitely.

I found this update on the website. Did anyone upload this one back in October 2022?

Did it bring major changes?
I plan to upload it this

 

[Freds_GLife]

I highly recommend the Oct 2022 Update. It unlocks the right side of the screen giving you full screen capabilities with Android Auto.

Whoa.... been waiting for that full screen unlock for AA since I bought the car!

Can you please direct me to where I can get that USB download (and are there easy directions for how to install the update?)

Thanks!
Bill

OK, thanks.

And just follow the update instructions, plug it into the USB port under the dash... and it will take care of the rest?

This will enable AA FULL SCREEN?

Once you plug in the USB drive, it will automatically prompt you to start the update. Took about 40mins. Once it was complete and it powered on, Full Screen on AA!

Worked PERFECTLY!! Now have the full screen AA maps and updated audio features!
Thanks for the input and help.

Happy G70 owner here...
