Well, I would be happy to pay for them to put the new MyLink unit in my car if they made it an option. (I know - a dream!) I have a loaner of the new Astra while my SSVR is at Holden for them to look at the front end creaking. The new MyLink with Carplay is a lot nicer to me over the MyLink we have. The DVB+ radio is also an added bonus.

I'd seriously pay $500 if they said there was an option to have a full update for the headunit to support carplay/android auto

Who cares, Pandora sucks anyway. Spotify for the win, integrates with MyLink well enough as well.

I've got Spotify running over BT - Works great, got full integration.
However connecting up via the USB port to charge, I lose steering wheel controls for audio. Weird.

Spoke to Holden rep this morning and they advised that a) Engineers are working on update to remove Pandora and b) this may include an update.

Hopefully this will fix all the issues with Bluetooth etc. Most Google devices which are the superior Android device are stuttering with MyLink. Holden google need to step it up. We don't spend 50k to get a car with a radio.

Alpine advised me that it was compatible with HUD and also bimodal controls.

It's crazy if you look online there is so much info on mirroring your phone, chomecasting to your head unit, mhl, Miracast wireless yet for HOLDEN MyLink information in this area nothing..... Its BS. Not even much info on the componentry.......

The only good thing about MyLink for me is you can rest your mobile phone nicely between the buttons and the screen.

Also UTE has no Aux. Can I install one??

Finally ICE android integration has been discontinued but they have another pack.. has anyone got this?

Whatty what-what?
Do you know the model number? Maybe it's a new model since I asked them (about 18 months ago) and was told it wasn't compatible with the HUD.

I'll check again. I definitely asked and a person said it was

Just unpair and then resync. Also could be your classification of the contacts in your phone. Android? Make sure you allow contacts to be shared i.e permission.

Jeez I'd extremeley surprised/impressed if we get any more updates for the mylink let alone for a replacement app.
