Hey ell.s...i too have a B unit...

I have just successfully upgraded to 3810a using a euro modified disc done by an Oz guy from VW Watercooled called Kamold.

FW has been modified to enable Secret Menu, VIM, Also battery drain has been eliminated and its a 3 partition version done for 75% Music, 20% Maps and 5% POI's (Again this version of FW is for EUROPEAN users).

Link to FW available if anyone needs it...PM me

Took about 90 mins in total...seemed to hang a couple of times but i just left it to do it's thing (engine OFF and NO KEYS IN IGNITION) and it was a success.

I then installed V9 Maps edition 7920 and all is copacetic...all on the original 30GB HDD supplied with the nav unit.

MY problem is that is that i cant get the unit to recognise the SSD (kingspec PATA 64GB) that i've been trying to swap with.

I'm now trying to search for tools to check the disks integrity...anyone had issues with SSD installation?

Hi,

I'm looking to upgrade my 1T0 035 680 B unit from its prehistoric 0800.  It is a 58 plate factory fit unit so I shouldn't have the battery drain issue.  What I'm after is the 7 digit postcode update which from reading this thread means I need to do an upgrade to 2xxx and then on to 3xxx.

Looks like depositfiles have stopped free downloads.

Anyone know if they're available anywhere else?

Thanks!

UK.

Then I may be able to assist.

Kamold on here has set up a site with links to a firmware version that WORKS.

Go to http://www.rnsfirmware.com/

Select the modified fw 3810a and download it.

Burn the image to a good quality disc at the slowest speed possible and then feed it to your rns510!

Make sure your ignition is off with keys NOT inserted.

That site above will tell you what this fw will do for you.

All respects and thanks to Kamold.

I have used this and it works well without issue.
