if you can show us a photo like this, than we know more what you have.

If you have the AMI (two USB and not charge only as its on the picture) then you should already have Carplay/AndroidAuto.
If you dont have it then after the activation and the coding you will have it.
Hi friend!! I have a question. I understand the entire process of unlocking the MMI on my Audi A3 (8V). But my question is whether I can have Android Auto after doing it (I only have USB charging + AUX). I don't think it's possible like this... right?
 
a software update of the MMI does not bring new functionality.
it only removes bugs and/or improve the existing functioning,

right !
if you only have today USB charging + AUX => NO way, you need to change the usb-port to get AA or CP working
 
пожалуйста, помогите мне с прошивкой MIB2 Scala P1240. Два года назад я установил активатор и карты отсюда, теперь возникла ошибка в программном обеспечении, и новые карты не отображаются на флешке, активатор не запускается! Какую прошивку мне установить, чтобы исправить ошибки? Прошивку P1242 или P2035?
the way are MHS2_ER_AU_P1242 and after the congo activator v2.5 , then the maps, if all works ok, if not working use the same procedure with P2035
 
Guys, I would like to update my MAPA for firmware version: MHI2Q_ER_AUG22_P5092.
Im from Brazil,I need the MPA RoW. Is there someone was able to update the MAPA for RoW?
Many thanks!
 
Hey @congo, first I want to thank you for the work you put in all this. It really is a rare find these days.
I upgraded my system to MHS2_ER_AU_P2035 using your instructions and absolutely no problems there. Then i went to upgrade my maps. First i put in the activator(all formated and done right) and no problems here either. Then i put in the maps P0350_V03959803PS_2024_MHS2 (again sd formatted right and all) which also loaded and downloaded after which the new maps turned on. But then i foolishly turned the car of and since then the maps are stuck loading. It says "Initialising navigation system. Please wait... and stuck at 11%". I have tried everything since then: soft reset, hard reset with diagnostic(then it loads from 0 to 11 again), tried putting in activator again and reformating card with maps and again putting in maps but nothing even comes up as a sd card than can be read. After the maps are inserted i can see in engineering menu that some info like country version are at 2023 as per map update. no navigation version is displayed anywhere except green menu. I have tried everything i could find and think of for a month already and would really appreciate anyones help.
 
Thank you very much!!
I can sleep peacefully now :)

I don't really know why the configuration was not correct, but I updated the MMI firmware because the USB stopped playing music and now when I coded the whole module from scratch, line by line and code by code, I saw that this option exists and it was disabled and when I activated it it started working again.
I don't know why it was disabled, nobody touched it...
If anyone needs the backup, please ask me. It might help people with the same car as me

Thanks again
Hello!

I have a similar vehicle (A4 B9 from 2016) and I am also experiencing not being able to access the car settings. I did update to a different firmware (0235), but the 5F standard values should be the same as yours.

Could you be so kindly to share your values with me?

Thank you in advance!
 
The maps I installed for 2024 are very inaccurate. I was very surprised by that. The graphics are also very bad. I just made a trip from Belgrade via Modena Milan now to Nis and Monte Carlo. It often took me off the road, going in circles. In the end I had to use Google maps. Does anyone know if these are the original Audi maps or some mixed ones?
