ANS-810 / ANS-510 (PROPER RNS-510 alternative)

[javier]

Hello DKN,
My name is Javier and im from Spain and i have just bought ANS510. I hope you can help me because im desperate!!

I use IGo8 which it came with the SD card. I have download like 20 versions of Igo Primo with no success because everytime i run the GPS an error comes into the screen:
"Out of memory.
Requested:1701978227
Cache: 0"

Im really very dissapointed because everytime i try a new version is imposible to run it. I havent testesd Igo Primo since i have bought ANS.

Do you know a version of Igo Primo supported by ANS510?
Also i dont have any feedback from this issue from audisource, and my supplier doesnt actually know anything about firmware, so i CANT upgrade the new firmware...
Do you know from where can i download a new version of ANS510?

Thank you very much for your time and help.
PD:If i have bought an ANS510 is because this Thread and how DKN manage all the information of this OEM.

First I have to make sure you have the ANS-510 and not AS-7608G. A few people have got these two models confused before, so just make sure you indeed have the unit with OEM look red interface (green for Skoda).

The ANS series work fine with Primo, I have personally tested Primo 1.2 and Primo 2. I honestly cannot say why the versions you downloaded do not work without knowing what they are. It would probably be better to discuss details of what you have done via PM.

As for firmware, I'm happy to send you the latest firmware I have as a one-off but if you would like to subscribe to my firmware update service it is $25AUD per my OP.

Have had my ANS810 now for over a month so thought I would make a few comments. Firstly thanks to DkN on quick and smooth purchase and help and advice on some installation details.
The unit is very feature packed and sound is at least as good good as the RCD510 I replaced.. There has been a lot said in this forum about the features so I wont repeat, except to say that OEM look, Sat Nav and DVD playback are excellent.
I am very pleased that there will be ongoing firmware updates because the unit is still buggy in its media handling. Sort of like having a Ferrari running on E10 ethanol fuel - you know you have something great, but cant get the best out of it. Here's hoping that Audiosources can sort out these niggling issues (Incomplete song titles listed when playing tracks from SD card, and not remembering last track played after turning off when using ipod input are my two major gripes).

I'm sure that the new pending unit will have some great bells and whistles, but for those just wanting the basics, the ANS is a good unit. With those last few bugs fixed it will be a great unit, so worthy of consideration for a budget upgrade on the OEM head unit. Needless to say I am now ready to part with my RCD510 so if anyone is interested send me a PM.

DkN, any news on firmware updates for the ANS series?

Hello to everybody,

Hello from Greece,

I'm following this thread from the beginning.

I like very much these units and I'm about to purchase the ANS-610, the only thing that bathers me is the glossy surface of the LCD screen.
I haven't seen the unit from close and I can't tell if its real embracing this or not, just read here complains from other customers.
Finlay, is this very annoying ???
I spoke with Audiosources if the can provide a mat screen and waiting for the technician feedback, alternative I will install anti glare film.

DKN, I will subscribe for the support you are offering when I'll get it, actually this is one of the reasons I'm getting this.
Do you know if the new coming model will have the same problem with the screen ?

Any news on when DAB+ will be available for these units?

Thanks

DkN - just so I understand, do you have to pay the $25 to get firmware updates, or can people go elsewhere (ie: a download site)?

thanks

Okay I will try to answer all of the last few posts.

Firstly regarding the screen - it is not matte and never will be matte. I don't know if anyone has actually used a matte screen or a matte screen protector before, but the reduction in glare comes at the price of clarity. Having said that, the screen is a little more reflective than it could be. Whether it will bother you is just personal preference. If it does you can get an anti reflective screen protector, but I would not recommend matte.

Regarding DAB+, I already mentioned in my update post that it will not be available on first release and will come later, but there is no ETA at the moment.

If you buy the unit from me there is no firmware update fee, it's only if you bought your unit elsewhere and would like to keep up to date. I get regular enquires about firmware as it is and if I put up updates for public download I'm afraid I will get bombarded, especially if people choose to ignore / skim over update instructions.

That said, if you bought your unit from Audiosources direct, you can periodically ask your sales rep for updates (they don't do update subscription and would have limited technical experience).

The new unit will be coming early April, again I did mention this in my update post linked to in the first post. We're almost there! Been seeing some promising pictures direct from their manager
