2: The birdview "update" is older than the original V26 because:
- somebody posted the build
- some features get lost that were definately new with the V26 (automatical rerouting...)
3: nobody had a crash of the system till now - and when the software striked an update to the official V26 helped
4: When we update to the official V26 the birdview keeps working - and the official version killed no navi-system. Unfortunately the view gets lost after a change of the view.

5: with the official V26 and birdview everything else works perfect
6: Somwhere in the CD structure of the official V26 is the "path" to the birdview available - but turned of by BMW.

So in conclusion there should be (theoretically) the possibility to create a "cracked" official V26 CD where the menue of switching between the 3 possible views is possible. The only thing we need is somebody who understands enough of the IT things

(additionally this quiet inteligent guy (or lady) should then also find the security thing that keeps us away from using our own splashscreen)

So in principle:

Please MTV, pimp my MK4....

(Keeping the Birdview after updating again to the official V26)

@ HenryH:

Since you already made the efforts to open you MK4 and taping a sensor on the CPU: is there a theoretical possibility to replace the CPU with a faster one or replace the ram with a bigger one (it should normaly use industrial standard components) - then the Birdview could run really smooth

I would be very careful to be stating at public forums that this Perspective works "perfectly" at all while the jury is still out on this feature, regardless if it is under the Beta or the official V26 release, because at least in my case it was everything but perfect, even running Perspective under V26. Some people are reporting still missing the Search function even when they go back to V26 from the Beta.

Unless we can say as a fact that a particular MKIV SW/HW, or part number is directly affected when running Perspective, we simply cannot say that it is "perfect" for all MKIVs for the sake of this effort. In my opinion, we need more testing done to find out what's really going on with this Perspective before further modifications to this unstable code.

Guys-anyone that has opinion please answer. I got uptight and reverted back to v26 that I burned last year from X5 forum. I got the BMW screen back but do not have accept screen. Once BMW screen goes off goes straight to map. The software shows on settings screen 4-l/60. Is this correct and was the v26 posted last year beta version or the official v26? I am tempted to go back to v25 and then go back up to v26.

Thanks,

Bob

Going back to V25 won't help. Your nav system is already in Euro mode, and must be recoded by the dealer.

It means the software in patch can change the nav system to euro mode.

So one can hack the software which will allow changing the version code of nav without going to dealer and much more !!!!!

we update to V26-09 and it is in Spanish as before, so if your nav system is in German, it´ll be in German after update

Without looking back through 17pages of this thread can someone answer a question. Are icons disabled now that I am running 26a? Or am I just having a blonde moment and not seeing the settings to turn them back on??
