How To: Headunit firmware & GPS navigation maps update

Anyone has tried maybe to make an update with those files in Kona 7' unit? What do you think - would it work? Actually it is the same HU (or just simmilar?)

I know it is i30 thread - just asking...

BR.

It should work fine, as we're all N owners on here you need to get the full software release, the very latest one referenced here is only suitable for mobis software, this includes the Kona.

As far as I know it only updates from an sdcard. I bought two from Amazon. One for the software the other for the maps. Format as fat 32 and extract the software and copy to a card. You MUST leave your engine running throughout, eject the sdcard in the car and insert the software one, it takes about 20 mins. Do not interrupt or remove until it says it's finished. Then do the same with the maps.

I have 7' HU without navi (and without sdcard slot).

As far as I know all this software is for navigation equipped cars I'm afraid you'll have to visit your dealer. If you've already got a usb thumb drive you've got nothing to lose by trying it but I don't hold out a lot of hope. Someone else with a i30n without a navigation system tried it and it did nothing.

Sorry guys, quick question, this update should work on my i40 2017?
Just wanna be sure, or can i just update the map, if the main sw doesn't.

Many thanks.
 
Dealer updated my firmware last week.
GPS layout looks a bit different again, a new cool feature is when you pass a speed camera and your speed was OK, a small beep will play :) I will look at the version asap.

There are two distinct types of software, mobis and LGE.
All I30N use mobis. I think yours uses LGE. So you need to get the correct one for your car.

Hi All,

First of all, thanks for sharing the updates for the software and maps!

I have a slight problem with the torrent, there is only one seed and my download has stopped at like 1.3%, is there any chance someone could either seed it or provide a Google drive link?

EDIT: I should have added, the latest software, I have the one from the OP which is working fine, just want to update to the version in post #223.

Many thanks,

DC
