Perfect! I have a 64 GB SD card, so I can put both the AiO and the Maps for NA on it at the same time?
No. Both require the files be on the root of the card. Not in folders.

I may have a download link for you tomorrow. Watch your PMs.
 
Good. I have the AiO updater for that one, as well as the 2024-25 North American map files for Nav. The updater is 1.82GB, the maps are 12.62GB.

@Ken G - do you have these files recently uploaded anywhere right now?
The maps should be available on this site:

Free download VW Audi Seat Skoda navigation maps

I also have many of them downloaded. Did Tom ever get back to you about hosting them?

No, only one step at a time, and remember, the SD card must be a clean format, nothing else on it, formatted FAT32, extract AIO onto the root of the card, do the update, then copy/save the backup onto your PC for safe keeping. Then clean the card off load up the NAV DB and do the NAV update via the PCM menus.
 
And just a few hours later, mibsolution.one is back up.

@marth - To get the process rolling, go to MIB Solution :: Login and login (username and password are both 'guest'). Then navigate to and download the file I've arrowed in this screen cap.

I just discovered I put this request in the wrong thread. I'll try again.

Has anyone here actually done a restore to their PCM? I'm trying to figure out which is the correct restore to go to. I'm going to attach a photo to see if it helps.

I'm a bit worried that the writing of the backup in AIO didn't actually work as it supposed to since the line "restore backup components to unit" does nothing. There is a backup file on my SD card but looking at it on my computer it doesn't seem to be too in-depth.

@GregW , @ReidMcT, @Arne, and anyone else who might see this request who can help me:

I am now planning to just rerun the AIO script with the ignition on this time but before I do that that I thought I would do some mental debugging & possible physical debugging. So...

I had a thought. I am assuming that my backup file may be invalid because the ignition was off when I ran the AIO script and so for some reason the backup script could not find all the information it needed. So my problem is where to find a valid backup. This brings me to my request. If any of you have a car that semi-matches mine (2018 718 Cayman GTS with navigation, voice control, and Bose), I'm hoping you would be willing to share your backup with me. I could then compare it to what I have backed up to my computer upstairs before actually trying to restore it. At this point, I can't break anything more than it already is.

I also I'm going to investigate my Launch X431 files, as I created a backup with that before I started those updates.

TIA

I'm willing, if you like either of my donor cars. If your plan works, at worst you might have to tweak the configuration for mismatched stuff.

Honestly, it's been so long since I even bothered making a backup, I'll have to remember how! Probably a good reminder, before I come to regret my sloth.

My '21 CTM6 came with factory NAV and Bose. My '17 BS came wuth Bose but not Nav.

Mine is a 2018, but did not have factory Nav and does not have Bose. So I don't know that mine would be a good reversion for you, assuming that I can even remember where I saved it over 3 years ago.

Mine is a 2017 Boxster S. It has factory navigation, connect plus and Bose. I also ran a Val before and after running MiB so I can tell you which codes were changed. Send me a pm with your email if you want my backup file. Although I am not sure how you think any of this will help you.

Hey, Ken. Your sounds like the perfect car so I will send you a PM. Stay tuned and thank you very much!
 
I'm willing, if you like either of my donor cars. I think it likely that any 982 would work as well for your purposes; X431 seems to think they're all previous generation Boxsters anyway. If your plan works, at worst you might have to tweak the configuration for mismatched stuff.

Reid:
I think Ken's 718 is the ideal car so I have asked him to provide what he's got. Thank you for the offer. I would definitely suggest making a backup though if you don't have one.

I can't tell you how much I totally agree!! Always go with @Ken G when given the opportunity! :)

Why? What's the worst that can happen?

Oh. Yeah.

It's on my urgent to-do for both cars, lest I join your lonely club.

Thanks for the nudge.

I think I'd try re-running the AIO process once more, starting from formatting a SD card. It is a remarkably resilient installer in my experience trying to break it. But I may not judge the risks as you would, and it ain't my car.
 
Quick question, I installed the MIB and copied all the patch options thinking it would update the firmware. Everything worked great but firmware is still the old one it had. The patches and AA auto got installed/enabled etc.


My question: Can I re patch or install the MHI2_US_POG11_K5186_1-MU1476-AIO: Porsche MHI2 US POG11 custom AIO FW update, over the first one I did.

Or do I need to restore something and redo it?

The PCM is a little laggy and thinking this will fix that as well as install the latest maps Incase I need them.

You can run MiB aio over the first one. However, the file you referenced is for us firmware. I assume you have the European firmware. You can tell because the firmware version for the firmware installed in your car includes ER rather the US. If so use the European version of MiB AIO.
