Hi all...
Sorry to ask a noob question, Will this MAP update re-activate the seen and searchable POI ?
The car is new to me but after an update undertook at purchase { last year } there is now no visible POI both on the search and on screen while viewing the MAP / NAV screen.
Or is there a way to upload the POI from an older version or even a new version so I can see them again ...
Thanks in advance ..
 
Maybe someone deselected all POIs in the setup, first check it. This update have all newest POI, they are on the screen but You can't search for them in online mode.
Thank you for your insight - and sorry for my next noob questions -
What do I need to look for to check the POI's are there ? _ I can see nothing within the RNS setup options screens to enable them, and nothing I change makes them appear ..
Is there a way to load just the POI details from your file / install / update via the "user" options or am I best to just install the file via the "standard mode" - Happy to not have the online mode, but being able to see a local fuel station or services would be a massive bonus.

Again thank you for your knowledge

Our MMI 3GP has this (long) list for NAV > Settings > Map content:

BTW, POIs visible only in Standard map display mode -- Google Earth mode shows no POIs (except Favorite "pins") for us. Your RNS-850 doesn't have similar ? --g

2 seconds of searching:

You have four options:
1. Upload last original VW ECE maps - 6.32.1 - they have POI offline search working, but they are old and the maps are old.
2. You can write to t7p club on the facebook - he has 6.35.1 maps with 6.32.1 offline working POIs for free. Maybe he has done 6.36.0, I don't know.
3. You can upload 6.36.0 maps and have all POI visible on the screen, You can pick one and calculate route to it, but the offline search will not work. If You have RNS850 3G version an online POI search will work after enabling Google Earth function in the same way as offline does.
4. Enabling existing POIs.

You shouldn't upload just POI (LIT databases). You may end up with corrupted acios_db.ini file and You will have no navigation at all. Maps (just as described) You need to upload via User defined mode.
 
Hi all.
New to this so please don’t judge if I’m being stupid 😊
I’ve updated the firmware to P0824 and then enabled user defined in the green menu but when I try and tick anything it just beeps with no change. Any ideas?
 
ok thank for advice. I just asked because in Lysy point 11 is written : 11. This map works with P0824 firmware. I have no experience for version below them.

that is why I want update to 824 or asked if it will work on FW below

Everyone thinks the latest software release is always "the best" for their system without understanding why the later software was version released. In this case, production release P0824 is essentially the same as update release K0821 except that P0824 adds support for newer main unit hardware that is not relevant for older main units like yours. My understanding is that current nav databases need at least release K0775 to operate properly. In fact, it is likely that your P0784 software will work fine with the current nav database. --g
