Maps and POIs for Discover Media

Followed the instructions off the linked website. Copied the original card content onto pc, formatted card then extracted the files onto pc then copied over to the sd card. Then just put the card back into card slot 2, and it worked straight away.

Maybe it has to do with the v1/v2?

I too think it is the card. Has to be, otherwise so many people cannot go wrong. Please update us if you notice any difference in this update. Thanks

So I've extracted the files now, I'm a bit confused, do i do a straight extraction from the zipped files onto the SD card or can I just copy over the extracted files to the SD card? The whole group of folders right?

I tried both it didn't work either way for me.

how do you tell if you have a v1 or v2 card?

[sucnip]

V1 cards have the following DbInfo file. You can see the 022 in the system information screen.

PartNumber2="5G0919866A "
PartNumber3="5E0919866A "
PartNumber4="5F0919866A "
ApplicationSoftwareVersionNumber="0022"
SystemName=" ROW 2013 "

V2 cards are 027

V3 (new maps) are 031

If you look at the first post;

Shows the DbInfo file details;

On the root directory of your map SD card is a file called DbInfo.
V2 old version:
PartNumber2="5G0919866G "
PartNumber3="5E0051236D "
PartNumber4="5F0919866G "
ApplicationSoftwareVersionNumber="0027"
SystemName=" ROW 2014 "

Here is the same from the new version:
PartNumber2="5G0919866R "
PartNumber3="5E0051236H "
PartNumber4="5F0919866L "
ApplicationSoftwareVersionNumber="0031"
SystemName=" ROW 2015 "

**************************************

Anybody with a V1 card with the following information (like mine)
will find it does NOT work...........

PartNumber2="5G0919866A "
PartNumber3="5E0919866A "
PartNumber4="5F0919866A "
ApplicationSoftwareVersionNumber="0022"
SystemName=" ROW 2013 "

If anybody finds different, please post.

Stupid thought, but the DBinfo file is a txt file. Does the system pull this info from this txt file or somewhere else?
Could changing the DBinfo file to the original on a V1 SD card work?
I not a computer wiz, but just thinking out loud.

@Dawson: I don't think so. V1 systems have different hardware/firmware.

New maps installed.

Thanks for sharing @sucnip, look me up next time you're in Melbourne so I can buy you a beer

just replacing the AUS folder is kind of keeping the that original file, so i will try that next.
