Hi all,

I've just read all the thread, just trying to validate I'm going to follow the correct process:
1) Update to K0260 (downloaded the firmware from this thread today)
2) Update maps (downloaded the maps from this thread today)
3) Update FSC (downloaded from this thread today)

Is there anything else I need to do? I understand FSC is the activator, so no extra activator is needed, isn't it?

Just one question, after updating to K0260, are my current original maps (2014/2015) going to work? Or do I need to do the three steps at once?

Many thanks,

Ok, just succeded to update my MMI 3G (Basic). The steps I followed are:

STEP 0: Knowledge acquisition

1. I read all this thread. Completely.
   
2. Downloaded recommended manual from here: https://cartechnology.co.uk/showthread.p...#pid340613
   
3. I read all the manual v1.7, although I didn't followed the steps exactly (I'll detail it below).
   

STEP 1: Update firmware to K0260.

1. Downloaded firmware from here: https://cartechnology.co.uk/showthread.p...#pid342909
   
2. Copyed files to a FAT32 formatted SD
   
3. Removed all SD cards from car
   
4. Selected Radio in MMI
   
5. Inserted SD card form firmware into slot 1
   
6. Entered Engineer Menu, and followed updated instructions on screen (about 15 minutes in total).
   
7. You can use UPDATING FIRMWARE section in manual v1.7 if you want. It is exactly what I did.
   

STEP 2: Applied FSC 2018 for MMI 3G BASIC

1. Downloaded it from here: https://cartechnology.co.uk/showthread.p...#pid354387
   
2. Followed update steps similar to steps 2 to 6 in previous STEP. This time I didn't followed the manual, just repeated the steps in same order. Total time about 3 minutes.
   

STEP 3: Update maps to 2018

1. Downloaded maps from here: https://cartechnology.co.uk/showthread.p...#pid354688
   
2. Copyed files from West Europe (DVD 1) to SD card.
   
3. Inserted card and the system offered me to update.
   
4. I selected yes. No hidden menus, no engineer menu, just that way.
   
5. About 5 minutes after, my maps were working.
   

IMPORTANT MESSAGE: Frist, I tried to update the maps using Engineer menu, giving me no option to do it (when I pushed Start Update button, it just didn't work). Then I tried to do it as normal user with new SD cards, and it just worked

Big thanks to everybody making this possible. Just wanted to put it all together so that newbies like me have it easier.

I am not expert on this, just followed "other ones'" instructions, so this maybe won't work for you. Read, read, read, ask, and thanks!!

BR,
