Hello.
If I got it right, to update maps (to 2023 linked in first post) I would first need to update the software and activate it?
There is no way of updating the maps without updating/patching software?
Thanks

EDIT. nvm just read the first post again and saw I missed the line saying just this
 
Hello again to all.
Maybe anyone has an idea what could be wrong with my setup? Situation is the following:
A4/B9 with MHS2 - orig. no navigation only carplay/android auto.
Then I used congo activatior to activate the navigation system. worked well!
Now I wanted to activate the vze system.
Flashed Software on the camera - is working
But was is not working is that there is no psd date from the navi to the vze system...
Anybody any ideas??
THX a lot
Hi i have a similar case as you.

MHS2_ER_AU_P1242 MU 0213
Audi Q2 1,0 - 2018

NO ORIGINAL NAVIGATION activated!
I want TO ENABLE ORIGINAL NAVIGATION.

The question i have is, if i use the MHS2 SD Card patch if navigation FEC will be added ( i think yes as far as i read).
But if afterwards coding will be needed or not.

In your case, you told here that NAVIGATION SYSTEM worked well, but you don´t pointed out if coding would be needed or not i your case!

Thanks for clarification from your side or other experts.
 
Thank you, I read your PM. I might have confused you as I don't want to region change, and ultimately want to activate NAR maps. Do I need to wait for congo to let us know what his new tool might be able to achieve?
Hi, Alex or Summer any updates on this? I am in a similar situation. Have US P2037, and am located in US, I did the patch only (NOT converted to EU). Set 5F Byte 3 to EU, as I am trying EU maps, have all of the FECs. When I load NAV I get stuck at 11%. It does the same behavior with the SD in the car and without the SD. Any thoughts? Thank you for all the work you do!

can you upload some pictures showing exactly the problem? You could try to set 5F byte 3 back to NAR because you are in the US now.

US MHS2 does not have navigation at all. It is not about the activator, it does its job but simply the software does not have what is needed.
It is about custom software made for that purpose but as of now im not offering that to guys that i dont know.
Too many copy paste bastards lately ... lets see what they will came up with.
I think i have shared enough so others can support families on my back :)
 
anyone who activates the navigation could also try 2 codings that help showing the SPEED LIMIT SIGN ON MAP (not on the dashboard) and the MAP GUIDANCE/COMPASS on the dashboard.


VZA (Traffic Sign Display / Verkehrszeichen-Anzeige)
Select-control Module --> Multimedia Module (5F) --> Coding (07) --> Long Coding Helper --> Byte 24 VZA --> Activated (bit 6)
Display Compass/Nav
Select-control Module --> Instrument (17) --> Coding (07) --> Run through the Bytes and select the box where Navigation/Compass appears

Hello

I wanted to update the map to 2023, I did the activation, it worked, I copied the downloaded map files to an empty 32gb FAT32 memory card, plugged it into the car and it doesn't work, it says no map file found. Could you please help me what the problem could be ?
I attach the pictures.

did you unzip/unrar the map file before copying it into the SD card?

I agree, very sad to hear that some people monetize these free patches into which Congo put so much work! I would even be willing to pay if there was a MHS2 NAR solution.

Here are some photos of what’s going on, just loads to 11% and stops. As you said Congo the software is incompatible for US versions? So no way to load even EU maps without either modifying the MMI US software or switching to a EU version? Thanks again!
 
use an other sd card with FAT32 or formating your sd card new, slow mode and sd card, no micro card with adapter, then it will work, after having used the congo activator
I will try to format it today. It's a brand new SD card and not an adapter plus card. I have done the activation and attached a picture.
Then I unzipped the map file and copied the two folders (mib1, mib2) and the 3 files to the card.

Hi, I just bought 64GB SD card realizing that I can not format it to FAT32 as this is Microsoft limitation. I can only format to exFAT and NTFS. Has anyone tried to update the map with 64GB SD card? I have audio a3 2017 and system MHS2_ER_AU_P0448
