The only difference will be the partition ratios which should allow enough room for your maps.

Successfully updated my unit (1T0 035 680 C) to Firmware 40xx earlier this week.
Installed V5 maps and personal POI's via SD Card as well.
Whole process was a snap thanks to the clear and concise instructions provided by "kamold".
My only advice - Be patient - It takes some time.

Would have liked to include the personal POI's on the map disk but my limited IT knowledge prevented me from doing this.
I did try on several occasions but alas I failed and created several coasters.

Just like to take this opportunity to thank "kamold" and "JohnC" for their work.
I can assure you that there are many who appreciate it.

Cheers...

what kind of POI databas did you uploaded? .db3 or different one?
my RNS doesn't recognise my SD Card at all!
i formated the SD FAT32, NTFS nothing makes different please advise, i need the POI

**kamold** · 19-04-2012, 07:52 AM

SDCard needs to be FAT32. Are you using POInspect0r to create the .db3 file or are you downloading from someone who has created it?
The file needs to be named PersonalPOI.db3 and needs to be stored in a folder on the SDCard root directory called "\PersonalPOI"

the file i have is originel from the Western Map,
but it calls different and its on EDP folder,
should i rename all?
you mean it should call like this "root"\PersonalPOI\PersonalPOI.db3 ?

does anyway PLEASE has the EU POI with speed cams ?

Jamerson this is a forum mainly used by VW owners in Australia.

We've helped you out a lot I think so far with creating custom firmware etc but as we don't live in Europe I think you are better off waiting to hear from someone from the vwnavi or gpsunderground forums where you have posted similar requests...

I don't mean to sound inhospitable but the other forums are more likely to be able to assist you with local mapping issues.
