So success, going to detail what i did just to be complete :) but thanks to Lysy for the help and download link.

First wiped Nav Partition and installed the 6.32.1 original VW maps using standard mode
same problem, Navigation greyed out in menu and no Nav DB version displayed.

So opted to to do the firmware again thinking this would be best to start from a known good state (think I saw you suggest that to someone in another post).
Wiped the Nav Partition again.

Enabled user defined mode for swdl in GEM
Installed HN+_EU_VW_PO824 using user defined setting all options to Y, for MulOC had to tick Bootloader as well to get it to show Y

Let the update run its course, then installed the 6.32.1 original VW maps using standard mode again.

This time after final restart Navigation was working, just got the expected not activated message so ran the unblocker from the 6.32.1 download and have a working satnav again :)

Its been a long day, those updates are not quick, but intend now to apply your 6.36.0 update tomorrow to get the latest maps again.
 
Hey.
I have the P0824 firmware with the latest 6.36.0 Maps. Many thanks for uploading and sharing them. Huge improvement in my region (Bulgaria).
I haven't noticed before, but I can't change the Coordinates format when entering them.
Now they are Degrees, Minutes, and Seconds (for example: 40°42'46.2"N 74°00'25.8"W)
Is there any way to change these to decimal degrees (for example, 40.7128° N, 74.0060°)?
Is it to be done in the Green Menu or by VCDS?
Many thanks. Cheers.
 
good morning everyone...
I write from Italy, and here there are few forums on treg...
in 2016 I updated the fw and the maps with the activator following the instructions in the mytreg forum with success, where I post the link.
now if I want to update the maps and the fw following your instructions do I have to do other activation scripts or not?
thks.......

@Stex -- The short answer is "no".

Your RNS-850 navigation database is not "activated" unless you PAID for the VW Activation Document and had a VW dealer service complete the ODIS SVM Activation process, which creates a valid FSC file for the new nav database and your VIN.

If you applied one of the so-called "activation" scripts, the activation process is disabled for your RNS-850 system permanently (or until the main unit firmware is re-flashed), so it will not need to be applied again after your update to EUR 6.36.0 from this thread. --g
 
@Stex -- Software release HN+_EU_VW_K0821 (MU version 0934) was the last RNS-850 update released by VW for Europe/RoW systems. P0824 (MU version 1047) was NOT intended to be applied to older RNS-850 systems. If you choose to apply the P0824 update, you WILL need to disable the navdb activation again with an appropriate SD script, as described in the first post of this thread. --g
 
Всем доброго времени суток. Обновил навигацию по 825 прошивке, в ручном режиме, с обычного USB Flash-накопителя. Активировалось тоже нормально. Но скрипт по удалению ошибки не запустился, хотя и ошибки нет, а вот удалить ошибку в блоке 5F не получилось, новое значение не хочет записываться.

Good day to all. Updated navigation of 825 firmware, in manual mode. Coves with a regular USB flash drive. Activated as well. (Translated)
 
update works fine. thanks for the work.

my car was yesterday at the Dealership for an Engine Software Update. Now i have a new Error in the 5F Modul. 01043 - wrong Software Version. How to solve this Error?
AFAIK it always leaves an error if the satnav software/firmware is updated outside the dealer network - but doesn't impact it's operation.
 
New member here looking for help with the updated RNS850 maps and specifically the POI search problem.

My background:

I own, since new, a 2012 3.0 V6 Touareg 'Altitude' that also had a host of extras added. It's my pride and joy and has still only done 36500 miles since new as I used to live in Jersey which is only 9x5 miles so not easy to do high mileage! Fully serviced and maintained at VW dealerships but I do the map upgrades myself.

OK, my issue then.

I've updated my maps to the 2023 version using genuine VW SD cards purchased from a UK seller (who I've used three times). Maps updated fine and I have a refreshed view on the main screen and the 'navi-view' between the dials. The only problem I have is that 'Special Destinations' (POIs) don't appear in the search or destination setting. I can see POI icons on the map so they are in there.

The thread suggests there might be a fix but I can't find it so could anyone help me?

Many thanks in advance.
 
@kiomuk -- The UK seller you bought these SD cards from ripped you off. These are NOT genuine OE products from VW. If we have time, I can explain why and how I know (see also p6 of my update document HERE). The last official nav update for EUR RNS850 released by VW was V15 (7P6051236BS), as noted in ETKA.

That said, you should post this question in a SEPARATE thread, as this thread is related to the FREE solution prepared and offered by member @Lysy (I suspect strongly that the navdb update you applied was taken from ths thread and sold as "new" VW product). --g
