Wait.. so you guys counted to 40 and then turned off your data connection?

Good to hear guys, I waited 35 sec. Badcam3 yes thats when you cut off data. Some people have reported over 60 sec, some 15. Good luck!

No joy on O2 uk.

It worked for my unbrand asia HD7, Its great thanks !!!

it works kinda
Okay so I tried this and it updates successfully (had to wait nearly 60 second)
I was successfully running NoDo and I tested almost everything, but
DNS was not working, I tried over Wifi everything was fine, tried my data connection and got the error message "could not find DNS server.
I'm restoring my phone using zune, and see if that resolves it.
If that does, I'm just going to bite the bullet and unbrand that SOB with the NoDo rom using the method outlined by ansar here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1001019
Edit:
I actually I think it's a t-mobile issue, I left my nexus at home so I can't verify. To make matters worse I hard reset my phone, after downgrading my rom version. FUC*!!!
Edit 2:29Pm 03/30/2011
Yes it was a t-mobile thing. Hardreset and downgraded for no reason. Good news as soon as I reconnected to Zune I got NoDo update immediately
-good part is, Zune restore works flawlessly for those who are wondering.

Though I like to think I have pretty good sense of time, I used my watch just to be extra precise.

Hey guys, I wanted to clear some things up for you guys since some seem a bit confused about the timing.
The timing differs for EVERYONE! You need to time how long it says "checking for updates" or whatever. Once you get that time, lets call it "n", you do it again (with cellular data on). Before you search for an update again, I went to the "phone updates" in the settings tab, make sure the "check for updates via cellular data" is checked, you want to stay here while zune looks for your update. Now manually search for an update and at approximately (n-1)seconds you want to uncheck that box. Your phone should show a notification that says there's an update available.
IF IT IS TOO LONG OF A READ, BASICALLY EVERYONES TIMING IS DIFFERENT!

It worked on 3rd attempt due to timing. But it is okay. And it kept itself jailbroken and I can sideload anything just like before.
Great.
PS: This should be pinned, IMHO.

Ouya Keeps Trying To Update.

Is anyone else having this problem? I have the block updates "on" in the Mods Collection for Ouya, but obviously it isn't working. Every time I turn the system on it's trying to update it. Any suggestions?

I was having this issue also till i got tired of it and i just updated my OUYA, i couldn't figure it out and i also asked for any input about it not working but no one cared and never got a reply back from anyone including WonderEkin but this should be asked over at the Mod collection for OUYA forum if you wana get some type answer...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2359390

The block updates only worked until they changed their update method with the 'incremental' updates ~3 months ago. However the latest version of stock SHOULD allow you to temporarily reject an update without plugging/unplugging an Ethernet cable.
But since the mod collection hasn't been updated in several months as well, so I wouldn't expect too much assistance besides "Update to Jackalope and the update-blocking will be built into stock" suggestions...

Yeah, I just gave up and ran the update. I couldn't play anything half of the time because it kept trying to update the system. Everything seems to still be working okay, though...haven't fun into any problems yet. Thanks!

2016 Silverado - No Android Auto

Hi all.
I just leased a 2016 Silverado and was a little bummed to find out that Android Auto doesn't work out of the box, and my dealership seems to not know what the heck I'm talking about.
For anyone that has Android Auto working in the 2016 Silverado, can you post your Chevrolet MyLink version number (can be obtained from settings in the dash)
Just wanna verify if my version should have it or not.
My phone (Nexus 5x) goes into Charging mode from every USB port (not sure if all ports should work with auto or not, but I tried all three).
I have the projection icon in my dashboard, which is mentioned on the Chevy Android Auto press release (http://media.chevrolet.com/media/us...ws/us/en/2016/mar/0301-chevrolet-android.html), but it's also used for Apple Car play or whatever.
I know this article mentions needing an update but I literally leased it this Monday (3/14) and assumed they would update the dashboard before giving it to me, note that the press release was sent out on 3/1.
Anyway, if someone can provide that info to let me know if I'm going to be disappointed by taking it in for a dashboard update, that'd be appreciated.
Thanks.

I recently did the update on another Chevrolet vehicle and had to go through the trouble of explaning what android auto is in the process as well.
Try asking them to look up #16-NA-042. That is the service bulletin number that they have the access to.

So for anyone else in my boat, I did indeed need an update. Android auto is pretty awesome so far. Google music and maps on the dash is super fun

I just did the update on my 16 chevy Malibu with mylink

How long did it take for the update? The letter I got said 30 minutes, but I just made an appointment, and they said it takes 2 hours...

1hr

I had the update done last week and it does not work on my s6 edge. I have been rummaging through forums because I thought it was my phone at first. I have tried eberything. My phone is up to date with marshmallow and everything but still have not found a answer to why it will not connect. I too have a 2016 Silverado. So at this point I think that the dealer botched the update. Like Stipo stated above if anyone with an updated working AA mylink could post the version number so I can check to see if they did indeed screw up update I would greatly appreciate it!

So it took me a while to get it to work on my Tahoe... There were two things I changed, so if you haven't tried these, try them:
1. If "fast charge" is enabled in the battery settings, you will need to pull down the notification shade and switch to a data and charge mode from charge only. (this is S7 specific, but a similar step should be required on all MM phones.)
2. I tried several cables before I had a stable connection that didn't immediately disconnect. I actually bought a new Anker cable.
Also, make sure you have it paired over Bluetooth. Mine does not connect until the Bluetooth connection is complete.
Where do I find the mylink version number? I'll look later today and report back later...

Settings---->Software Information---> Software number should be shown. Thanks for your help

Software: 84089010
Gracenote: 23199236
Map: 23346621

Thanks for checking for me. Anyone else that has had the update please share so we can compare depending on model. My software number is different from yours (23415883) but my grace note is the same (what ever that means). I own a 2016 silverado...idk of software numbers differ between models. I called chevy yesterday and sounds like the dealer screwed up the update blahhh going again next week. Fingers crossed.

Android auto communication error 7
I got my 2016 silverado updated. (Took the dealer two times to get it right) so now in settings right below apple play I see android auto. But when I connect my galaxy note 4 I get a communication error 7 that says my cars software did not pass android autos security settings check list. Has anyone else seen this?

There seem to be a lot of problems with Samsung Marshmallow Devices lately. If you check the Androidcentral forum's you'll see Samsung seriously ****ed things up with their marshmallow update. I guess you'll have to wait until they fix it or use a custom rom.

I have a 2016 Silverado 3500HD and does not have the Icon. I was told that a certain quantity of 2016MY Silverado 1500/2500/3500 and Sierra 1500/2500/3500 trucks were
built without Apple Car Play and Android Auto compatibility. I also was told at this point there is no plans for an upgrade but that doesn't mean there won't be. I was told also it is on the window sticker that it didn't have it and there was a $200 credit given because of it on the sticker price. So if you are one with no Icon then you just have to put up with the frustration of not having it like me.

its 2019 and yes i have something to say about this
just bought a CPO 2016 silverado LTZ.. everything you're describing im having trouble with also. i cant find anyone or any thread to help me. i even took it to the service station today since i bought it Saturday. they cant help me with the issue. blame it on my phone. i can get my phone to pair with the truck and make calls and play pandora. but when it comes to using android auto. its like my phone doesnt exist. im using the factory USB cord. i tired both of my phones my S6 and my S9 still nothing. theres no icon for android but there is for apple carplay. the tech at chevy was able to use his apple phone but that doesnt help me. if you have an answer to this PLEASE PLEASE let me know. thank you. btw its running the latest update

my my maps, software and the other is different from yours. idk what to do. chevy said everything is up to date. when its clearly not. my numbers are way under everyone elses. including the update

If AA is not shown in the mylink settings then it needs updated to have AA. My 16 Camaro was without and I was able to get the dealership to update it.
Not sure how the Silverados are treated but with the Camaros they offered the upgrade free for a limited time then after that time started charging for the upgrade. Think gm included a charge code for the labor then stopped giving the dealerships the codes so the labor cost was on the dealership. I was able to find a dealership that did it free of charge. Hope this helps anyone.

When I brought mine in for the update, I got in the truck to test it and it didn't work. The software update had to be done again. It takes 45 minutes to upload into the truck. Make sure you are using a phone manufacturer cable. I used on of my "good" charging cables and it does not work, I have an LG thinQ8. it only works with my LG cable. the update can fail, don't let the dealer tell you otherwise.

Updating android wear 2.0 apps

I have apps that i am trying to install from the watch and others that I would like to update and its stuck on "pending" with no download. Has anyone experienced this on their Gwatch R?

Yes. Had this problem since the 2.0 update weeks ago. I even factory reset it. Problem remains. I thought I could just uninstall then reinstall an app that refused to download it's update. Nope. Now the app won't reinstall. Very frustrating. Any help would be appreciated!

Experiencing this too. I resetted it once, then it started again. Found a few threads online of GWR owners with the same issue, someone solved it by disabling "ask for PIN" on the watch and "ask for password/fingerprint" on the phone, someone didn't.
I updated some apk (GPS, Android Wear, etc...) by downloading from apkmirror and installing them through adb, but this didn't fix the problem either. In logcat I can see some issues with an intent referring to the Play Store and one with some directories not being read.

This is so annoying. Is this an LG or Google issue? How do we petition help and they actually listen to us?

Me too!
I have this issue too!
I really hope a fix comes available soon!

Same issue here also GWR

Same here.. Any fix?

Issue not updating or installing new apps on watch

Even with WiFi, LTE and Bluetooth enabled not able to update or install new apps using Google play store on watch.
Just says downloaded pending and doesn't download anything. Tried for several days on wifi and off.
Should I reset the watch?

I had the same issue the other day. I tried everything I could but ultimately a reset is what fixed it.

Thanks I reset and it fixed. Now LTE is not working with Verizon.

I just started having this issue. LG Watch Sport with build NQF430. This is kinda ridiculous. Can't update or install anything. I really don't want to reset this thing again.
