DNS series head unit (new generation dual core RNS-510 alternative)

[asa572]

Went out to try and reload old firmware too find that when it starts it's now just a white screen.
Tried numerous times to get it to load on but it wouldn't do it.
Then when I tried one more time I held both knobs in on start up and it loaded the mix match of updates I was previously using and it is working again.
Not f#@king happy at all!

Hope that works

if you have a 610 like I do, I suggest you do not update.
Updated as per new instructions and after it's done and you reboot
it gets to the Welcome to Volkswagen screen and that's it!
Can't do **** with it!

Hmmm, did you get back to the previous FW?

[asa572]

After much ****ing around I got the mix matched firmware we used back on.
I suggest you don't try it until Sandy confirms that the latest updates are compatible with the 610.

Just updated my 810 - glad that SD playback no longer pauses in reverse and loading SD USB is now very quick (around 3 seconds as polski reported)

Change back to 2 column menu layout which is much better

Will soak test further on my drive home from work but things are definitely moving in the right direction now!

Has anyone had a monsun.exe since the new firmware??

Might try turn the nav on in the background and see if I can push it a bit. Maybe it won't come up with the errors.

Haven't encountered one yet in a couple of hours of SD playback, although mine have been very sporadic and sometimes haven't had them for days on end.

Had the Nav on briefly this morning too and SD track skipping seems to be almost instantaneous in when in Nav UI - can anyone else confirm the improvement?

I can. I'm amazed in the improvement in SD playback with this latest update! It loads in seconds, switches almost instantly and hasn't crashed once on me yet!

Things are finally looking like they are going somewhere!

Great stuff, although I'm not part of Sandy's groupbuy I'm glad others are having as positive an experience now as I seem to be having. This is really turning into a unit I enjoy showing off to fellow VW owners - it really does carry the OEM polished look/feel (and now snappier operation) of VW units 3x the price!

One thing I have encountered - no matter how many times I've tried I cannot get the time/date to stay set correctly - it seems to keep jumping to China time (+7/8 hours) as if it is syncing via GPS/CANBUS but defaulting to the wrong timezone

I suspect I may be the only UK owner on here currently but has anyone any input on this? Can't see anything in settings / hidden menu concerning time zone / syncing with GPS (time shows as correct in iGo Nav software)
