Navigation Issues - Updated by themerg
Feb 13, 2009 (2:08 pm)
Reply
Here is an updated list of issues...
 
1. QWERTY Keyboard - Corrected
Initially Reported: 09/2008
When setting the keyboard layout to be in QWERTY mode, the keyboard layout reverts to Alphabet mode after changing the System mode (switching components) or when turning the Nav System off and on. The default settings menu will still show the layout selection to be in QWERTY mode even though it displays the keyboard in Alphabet mode.
   
2. iPod Random Issue
Initially Reported: 10/2008
When selecting the iPod to play at Random, the feature is turned off if a different mode is selected, the audio system is turned off and on, or the Tuning dial on the radio is used to select a new song. The Random selection should be maintained during any of these changes.
   
3. Address Book Sorting Incorrect
Initially Reported: 10/2008
When sorting the Address Book alphabetically and not by date, new addresses are incorrectly sorted when added. New addresses are added to the end of an addressbook instead of alphabetically. To correct the issue, you have to go into the settings and reselect alphabetically.
   
4. System Hang - One Time Issue
Initially Reported: 10/2008
Had an issue where the Hyundai logo stayed on screen and nothing could clear it. I tried to turning off and on the car and the same thing happened. I hit the Display button and the display settings screen came on. When I hit another button to try to get the iPod screen, I got a Windows pop-up on the screen that told me I had a fatal application error. I selected OK and the system rebooted and started working fine.
   
5. iPod Not Turning Off - Possibly Corrected
Initially Reported: 09/2008
When turning off the car, my iPod is not turning off on its own. According to the developer it is supposed to. Also, I found that if I manually turn it off while leaving it connected, it sometimes turns back on a few minutes later even though the vehicle is off. I am unsure if somehow it is receiving power when the car door is opened or not, but something is triggering it to turn back on.
 
Update 02/13/2009: I left the iPod on after turning off my vehicle. When I returned 10 minutes later, the iPod was off and I still had a full charge. I will see if it continues to do this.
  
6. USB Device Random Issue
Initially Reported: 10/27/2008
When using a USB drive to play music files, the Random setting works as long as you do not change a song manually. As soon as you change the song using the steering wheel controls or the radio seek buttons, the Random setting turns itself off.
 
7. iPod Random Issue: Part 2
Initially Reported: 02/13/2009
When hitting the Random button, it now selects Album Random first and then Random. This means that you have to hit the button twice to randomize playback of your playlist. This will cause a lot of extra wear and tear on the touchscreen.
 
Enhancements of Note
  • Artist names and album names now scroll if they are too long to be displayed

  • Emergency button on the Destination screen (links to police, hospitals, and dealerships nearby)

  •  
    I know some other things changed, but can't remember exactly how they were before. I'll post when I figure it out.

    I updated the list.
     
    Regarding fixes, the Random issue is not fixed; it's actually worse now.
     
    As for M&Soft, I talked to them again today. They only update the map, POI's, etc. They send it off to Hyundai Autonet to put on the DVD and then it is returned to them for sale. Apparently, the map itself cannot just be updated. When performing the map update, you are actually reinstalling the software for the Nav unit. Hyundai Autonet takes advantage of this to release updates to their software.
     
    I sent off an e-mail to the contact for Hyundai Autonet USA, once again. We'll see what happens.
     
    As for the map, I did notice a new street from last July is still not on the map and a government office that was built about 4 or 5 years ago is still not represented on the map.

    I am wondering how long it will be for those of us that do not purchase the map update to get a software update to the unit to bring them to the same software version. Any way you can inquire with your contact about that?
     
    Thanks!

    Should have responded a long time ago - my bad. Anyway, the replacement of the unit fixed all issues. Dealer did a good job, no muss, no fuss.
     
    This is probably a dumb question but does anyone know how or if MS Streets & Trips trip maps can be used or loaded into this nav system?

    Negative. The maps are updated as part of the software install. You need to have an install DVD from MapnSoft in order to update your map.

    ...such as an Emergency button on the Navigation Destination screen.
     
    That has been there on mine since day one. It has the police, hospital & Hyundai dealerships listed in there.

    Did they change the icon for it? I really don't remember seeing that there before. Maybe the icon was blah enough before that it just didn't stand out to me...

    Just purchased a 09 Sonata Limited with the Infinity radio/gps. I did not get a manual with it. Would you have the model number of the radio so I can try to find the correct manual. It is not the same radio/gps found in other Hyundai models.
     
    Thanks for any info

    Are there any more updates at the dealer for the Nav system other than the original one that came out a while back? I am getting ready to go in for service and did not know if I needed to ask for one. Thanks!
