Today another Unit updated :)

0359 —> 0515










What was your source of the 515 software ?. I drew a blank looking at the Spanish thread although I might have missed a link.

I noticed a few sharks in play in this thread in places claiming that they had the trusted source and others didn't. Presumably the software has a signed SLA1 metainfo txt file like the navigation high updates which prohibit meddling with the source since you can't generate the signature yourself. That's the argument deployed plus if you dont use ODIS it can get reset, but then I recall RCupra said you can only upgrade firmware, not downgrade, so that doesn't stand up.

Is it anymore reliable?. Suppose to fix Android Auto and Carplay bugs.

Did you need VCDS / Obdeleven etc to finish it off or just plug & play... ;) Do you want to right a resource.

I'm a part from a small group in germany :)
we share us firmwares.
you must patch the Unit and then you need to prepeare the Update :)
after you have prepeared the Update you can do it normally via SD Card.
You can downgrade via this method too :)

For the process you dont need ODIS,VCDS or OBDELEVEN.

I once got invited to join a German group since they thought I lived near Trier. Non for profit group?.

I have this system, i have read alot of this forum but its really confused me as there was lots of different variations. I got the car last week but there is no medialink or full link, Just normal Bluetooth. is there a way to update this to gain more features? if so what features. I also have ambient lighting but cannot select the colour, its just white. Is there any way to change this with the update too?
