Firmware updates for European RNS510 units

[kamold]

Formatting allows you to resize the partitions
However to edit the script file you also need to generate a valid CRC or the unit will reject the update.
There are a few pieces of software that can do this however I'm not sure if any of them are still available.
I have setconfig which is no longer in active development.
What sized partitions did you want?

Thank you for the reply,
I would go for a larger map partition and I do not copy much music onto the HDD anymore. 40/50/10.

I downloaded a RNS510 format image file - 2760 all.nrg.
Can I use 2760 when my RNS510 is on FW 6276 being a C14 unit?

Hi kamold,

I had a look for the setconfig you mentioned. I could not find many links to it, but this seems to be for professional coders. Is this easy to use? Do still have access to it?
Can I use FW 2760 to repartition my HDD? I found this in another thread on vwwatercooled.

I will try and have a look at this next week. Just a bit busy at the moment sorry.

Hi
Could somebody upload somewhere fw 4120_fw_60_35_5.iso mentioned at 1st topic please? That link is dead.
Thanks

Hi...one thing I have noticed at 402x firmware is the unit seems even MORE picky about CDs.I never had any issues with mine in the past but after upgrade to 402x I had to use xpcdburner and track at once recording to get a custom boot screen CD to be accepted.

If you are in the UK then you'll need a large map partition.
I have an upgrade for 6276, but with a small map partition (for Aus/NZ). I don't have access to my tools I need to build a new one at the moment, but there are firmware images available that will just do a format of the partitions, just may need to enable firmware downgrade.
Let us know if you are still having problems and I'll try and sort something out for you.

Hey kamold, do you still have the 6276 version with changed partition sizes?

Yes you can upgrade to 4020 for older units. This will not cause battery drain.

Then after you have upgraded your gateway you can upgrade to 5238.
You can download it from here Loading...

There are only minor differences but it is the most stable and up to date firmware available.

Hello everyone, i want to update my RNS-510 to 5238 Version but all links not working, anyone can post working links ? Thanks

I've been having a dig through my archives and only seem to have the Australian version of the firmware, Kamold may have some of the others floating around so I'll wait for him to chime in.

From what I understand, it makes very little (if any) difference to the operation of the device. Also, the RNS510 is getting on in years, and a modern drop-in that supports Android Auto/CarPlay like the RCD330+ is by far the quickest and easiest way to bring a little modern tech to older vehicles, albeit at a cost.
