I'm waiting delivery of my S3 and its comin with the RNS-e, now I know its a DVD based sat-nav, but are there any other functions I should know about
worth mentioning is that non VIM and SDS dont work from the factory in this country; they need to be 'hacked' and BT only works if you have specified phone prep!.
I think Marc is saying what can be done if you have the know how!.
Sorry if I'm being thick - but where / how do I get hold of a "hacked firmware upgrade". Is it a dealer visit that's required or just access to Vagcom ?
I have a copy of the hacked SDS enabled SW0650 which I have shared with several other members over the last number of weeks. I have not posted it directly on this forum as I don't want my bandwidth allowance to max out if other forums link into it. I'll PM you with the links and notes on how to enable SDS and either install a new microphone or reroute the wires to from your BT kit (if you already have the mic installed).
Just about to head out now, but I'll send the details later tonight or tomorrow.
You will need access to VAGCOM for the procedure.
BTW Marc, I bought my car in Germany and all settings were in German. Managed to change everything to English except the following:
BT commands in DIS are in German. Do you know a way to change that?
I have a Vagcom.
Thnx in advance

oh thnx MarcYou'll need to recode your BT module. Should be just the last digit from 1 to 2, but if the car was german then you'll probably need to change the second last digit to a 2 also. However, if you are enabling SDS then you'll need to change the second last digit to an 8.
If you want to fiddle about with volume and timeout settings then go into Adaptation and look at the following:

Can you also send to me please Marc?
Nice one Marc - forgive me, I always post this on RNS-E threads, but for anyone else interested in anything like this, check out http://www.navplus.us. It's a forum for all things RNS-E and is home to some very talented people. As well as the SDS hack, there's guys on there who have enabled in-motion TV (for passengers obviously) and there's a very long running thread on reverse-engineering the RNS-E software with a view to customising it and adding POIs like speed cameras etc. Early days but always worth a read.
