When the nav gets a OS upgrade it reverst to default settings (Europe).
You can reset the settings with my NavCoder app

Edit the OS with NavTweak. Upgrade the version by 0.1. Load new OS.
Easy

With v28 (4-1/80) the disclaimer will go away by itself.
Or use NavCoder to set Europe mode but with US language/voices

Only if their version is greater than yours.
If you made, eg, a v4-1/99 then they wouldn't overwrite it.
