Problem with POI in Columbus? (Speedcam)

Featured Replies

Hi!

Skoda Superb L&K -18 with Columbus
In "My Points of Interest" on https://skoda-connect.com/portal I've succeeded to add speedcams with logo, into my Columbus from Portal (via online update).
Fine so far... But with no sound alert?

Then I read that http://mydestination.skoda-auto.com/POIs would fix that "problem".
I've succeeded to add speedcams with logo and "Sound Alert", then saved the .zip-file.
Unzipped the files into a SD-card (even tried with a USB-stick) and tried to install it into my Columbus.
Then the error occurs (see the video in link. Text in Swedish...), something like:
* "Error: Software update"
* Clicked on "Details"
* "The software update was canceled.
Reinsert the data carrier.
The system is restarted to avoid software errors.
"
* Then It restarting Columbus, and not with speedcams and so on...

I've tried several times with both SD-card and USB-card...?
Any ideas?

(Sorry for my bad english...)

Thanks!

just do this. Use Waze or Google maps - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pl7TUZ9B9MA

 

I know both of these are good and call me old fashioned but I still prefer to use the columbus satnav. I also like to have the directions displayed on the maxidot.

Finally I've think i got it working, through " POInspect0r".

Donated 9€ to get "fullversion", via PayPal.

Then I followed this guide:

And now it's beeping (1 time) like 50meters before a speedcam.

About Waze: I don't want to take up my phone everytime i'm about to start and drive my car...
"But how do you play music"? via USB>.mp3-files and radio.
No Bluetooth and so on...

Music and calls work through android as it turns your system into the phone. The only let down is the back and forward buttons on the steering wheel dont seem to move tracks
