Hi All,
I thought some people might benefit from my findings since upgrading my RNS 510 version B yesterday evening.
- I took a picture of the label on top and it said it was a version B with HW: 02 and SW: 0800.
- I burned a DVD using the 3810a firmware from ww.RNSfirmware.com
-I followed the on screen instructions to do the upgrade, which was completed within an hour.
The major benefits I have noticed so far, which I was actually hunting other forums for information on:
- When streaming bluetooth audio from iphone 4S, I now get the track titles on the RNS 510 unit and within the HUD in the dashboard. I can also control the iphone via steering wheel and RNS510 unit! (BIG plus for me, Before it used to just say BT-Audio.)
- My SDHC 32gb memory card now works in the unit, and I have succesfully played music from that. Again big plus, as it wouldn't work before.
- It is easier to switch between MDI and bluetooth on screen
- the touch screen is MUCH more responsive than it was before. (I thought it was almost unusable before as it was so slow when scrolling).
- Secret menu has now appeared when you hold down setup button.
Hope this is of help to some of you who are yet to upgrade.
Tonight I am installing the new V9 maps, so can let you know how I get on with that. Apparently I should be able to enter full postcodes afterwards!
Cheers
