Today activation was possible... mabye there was really some server problems.
But sound quality playing Apple Music App is really terrible, lots of crackling static noise.
Firmware version 2020.01.16.1737

2018 GMC Sierra audio shuttering with new update.
All I need is map volume to work like it does on text and phone calls and shuttering fixed.
I will never update after those 2 things are done.

Install google maps. In settings theres an option to adjust voice volume. Maybe try this if you havent tried.
As for stuttering, everyone keep submitting bug reports so they know and can fix it or roll back the failed update.
Does yours display song information when wired? Mine doesn't 😔
I hope @CarlinKit adds an option to install any of the previous versions if needed, that would be really nice and solve the problem if an update breaks something.
Did they finally get the steering wheel controls fixed for track and volume?
so funny how different cars act differently. The jeep volume and track buttons on the steering wheel work flawless with no issue
Give them a day or two to see the reports and issue a fix (provided everyone is using the included report function).
For some of us the last update works fine.
Jeez. It does call to mind the old engineering adage that those who live by the cutting edge of technology die by the cutting edge of technology...
With all due respect, in a very real sense we are all software testers here.
That’s very true, I am used to not being able to use bigger more important bits of kit properly while testing is going on. Just have to work through it sometimes.
Knowing the differences in Carplay on each car (it seems each manufacturer designs it totally different) it's not like Carlinkit devs have it easy.
In any case, I totally respect them as they are constantly improving the product and trying to fix the issues.
Heck, how many of you bought the dongle and your car was listed as compatible in the product page? Mine wasn't listed so I took the risk and just a few days after reporting my issues they were already fixed 👍
Have fait and keep reporting, hopefully soon everyone will have a fully functional experience 🤗

Dunno if you are a classical music fan, but this long unending thread puts me in mind of the title of Bach's Cantata No. 146 "Wir müssen durch viel Trübsal in das Reich Gottes eingehen". I suspect that the composer must have had significant experience with a faulty USB dongle for his horse and carriage.
Steering wiheel control for track next and previous does not work. Volume does.
Thanks for the reply.
how can I install it? It wong get passed the connecting stage so I can’t go to the IP address?
This is where I’m stuck.
iit connects to Bluetooth and then i look on WiFi and I get a new WiFi channel but it doesn’t connect, if I try manually it asks for a password which I don’t know.
if disconnected from everything (WiFi and Bluetooth) devices and restarted the whole process with deleting my iPhone from the carplay aswell.
no luck
