Do you need to leave the SD with the map files in the car whilst you insert another which has the activator?

No

Can you not do the map upgrade, clear the files off the SD, put the activator on and use the same SD again to activate?

Yes.

question: did you read the instructions ??

Hi, can anyone tell me the difference between this thread and the one with 5.24.4 maps by Congo?
Is it not both for the same MMI 3G Basic model? One has higher map version, one has higher firmware version, am I right?
Thank you.

this topic is not for MMI 3G basic, but it is for MMI 3G high.

 

[Fred44nl]

Yep, B+O sound system here too which is also causing some nervousness!

B&O on a pré-facelift is no problem at all.

I also downloaded the firmware files but when unzipped there is folder 1 and 2 which both seem to have an overlap of each others files

if you have to do more than one firmware-update, you should keep them separately.

@Wilkoss
an update should be downloaded, extracted and applied.
if you have to do more than on update, you will have to download, extract and apply the 1st one you need. after this process has been completed, you can download, extract and apply the 2nd.
in other words, keep them apart.
and it does not matter how many folders, etc. there are in one update.

 

[Fred44nl]

I understand that, but the problem is - when I extract the 1st upgrade there are 2 folders names 1 and 2.

when you have downloaded and extracted one update, you have one or more files and one or more folders.
you have to copy those files and folders - exactly as they are - to the SD-card.
so, you don't copy one folder over the other, keep them as they are.
so, you will not overwrite the contents of one folder with the contents of the other. in fact you don't need to know what is inside the folders.

One thing i'm not sure on is the maps. So near where i live is a major road that was finished in Feb this year, would this be on the latest maps or would that be a release in 2018?

maps are finished somewhere in autumn.
so, this new road should be in next version of the maps.

 

[Fred44nl]

So i re ran the 0257_6 update and now everything seems to be working. Do i need to rerun the other updates in between?

no, you don't

 

[Fred44nl]

If my car battery is fully charged do you think it will be ok to do the map update with the engine off? Also if doing the map update will the car autolock when I walk back into the house. Will the update be affected if I'm having to unlock the car to check on how the update is going.

I would not take my chances.
it will depend on the quality of the battery.
your car will not autolock, it never does.
just keep the engine going and sit it out

 

[Fred44nl]

is this the right thread?

Software version:
HNav_EU_K0206_3_D1

Nav. Database version:
8R0060884N ECE 5.12.5

yes, it is

 

[Fred44nl]

Should I update the firmware step by step to 0257 and then update the maps, or I can go directly to 0257 and afterwards update the maps.

the answer to this question is somewhere in this topic.
I'm afraid I don't remember

 

[Fred44nl]

To be sure what to do. It is 3GPplus system.

you are in the wrong topic.
this topic is not for 3Gplus

 

[Fred44nl]

I did it, and now is work OK, but no Street view.

there is no street view in MMI 3G-high
as I mentioned before, you are in the wrong topic.

 

[Fred44nl]

ok, but I get nice answer form Lukjod before.

might be, but this way, you are polluting this topic.

you should be here http://www.a5oc.com/forums/a5-general-q/113737-mmi-3g-3gp-navigation.html

 

[Fred44nl]

Is there a guide

yes there is.
start reading at post #1 of this topic

@DcDave

Why don't you follow the instructions ??
Download the update, put it on an sd-card and perform the update.
Messing with the files and folders is the perfect way to get in trouble :nerd:

 

[Fred44nl]

Hi Guys,

Is there somebody on the forum from Belgium who could give me some extra instructions to update my MMI 3G+.

Thanks!
Ben

to begin with: you are in the wrong topic :surprise:

 

[Fred44nl]

"ONLY FOR 3GH (3G HIGH)

This is supposed to be for the 3GP, correct?

either you have MMI 3G High or you have MMI 3G+/3GP

so, which is it ??

 

[Fred44nl]

It's no different from the previous update.
1. Clear the current navi DB and HDD partition (green menu).

I have update mine about 4 times now and have never erased the current maps.

always used the FSC-activation, which I cannot find anymore
do I have to reactivate, at all ??

 

[Fred44nl]

hi guys im new here , can anyone help me to upgrade step by step , my audi q5 2011 , 2.0 tdi auto , i think i have mmi 3g

you do have MMI 3G and you are in the correct topic.
the instructions are in the 1st post of this topic.

 

[Fred44nl]

1. Should I do step by step or just jump straight to latest version?

if I'm nog mistaken, you can go straight to 0257_6
but this has been mentioned in this topic.
no idea that a 09.00 version is.
the firmware update mainly are for bug-fixes, nothing more.
