Mine seems to working well with my samsung s10. Kinda scared to update lol If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Also my weather app works fine. The issues I see are android/samsung issues. But not really bugs, more UI and functionality issues. For example, I've yet to figure out how to navigate to specific artists or albums using Google play music. SO downloaded and am now using another music app. It works well enough in these regard, but honestly I like the UI and search functions I had using the old Boom radio better. Not enough to go back through. Loving the VERY fast boot time!

Always have issues with CarPlay reinitializing after a power down or on a first boot up (same with a few other riders I ride with). I have to have my 20s already powered up and the phone plugged in before powering the bike on. It's been very buggy. sometimes have to start the bike and unplug and replug the phone a few times before it comes up. It's a PITA if you stop for a few minutes and it does not come back up on a restart of the bike. I'll test it out tomorrow and see if that's fixed,

My issues with CarPlay are just what you describe. Restart is a pain, almost always have to unplug the phone and plug it back in. On a few occasions have had to shut bike off for 3 minutes and then restart to get it to come up. Would be nice if this is one of the bugs they are fixing.

I found that out also yesterday. Took over five minutes to get CarPlay to come up after the update the first time. Worked pretty good the next four starts yesterday. Will ride again today for a short bit.

Not sure what this update fixed or corrected. I haven't been able to find anything.

Most likely a cable/connection issue?

No, its definitely a bug somewhere, either on the radio itself, or Android Auto on the phone.

Just went through the process to update the Nav system on my 2020 CVO Street Glide:

https://harleydavidson.welcome.navie.../guide_en.html

I followed the instructions to export the data and and got a screen that said Export Failed. I tried a different USB stick, and got the same result. For the record, it's the same USB stick I use all the time to import ride routes.
Anyone else have any experience with this??

joe, are you trying to update your maps? your bike should have come with the most recent updated maps. no export of anything needed.

the updates that folks are talking about here are the actual firmware updates for the radio itself.
