5. You will be prompted to verify replacement. Select "yes"

Hello guys,

its just a unbelievable work that was done here.
Right now I've installed the upgraded version with splashscreen customized by RichardP1. It works in my '02 E39 since Tuesday just fine - no problem at all.

So, there is no reason for me at the moment to install the hacked version of the V26.

Yesterday I tryed the 1. time to create my own splash
and had this outcome.

But I'm not satisfied with the result - It would be much better, if the type designation "530i" can be inserted as true type font rather then as picture.

Is there any body out there who knows with font type has to be applyed for BMW type designation?

Kindest regards,
Matthias

If you're loading V26 and the system already has V26 in it then it will not take the upgrade. You have to downgrade to V25 and then back to V26.

I tried the procedure described on page 17. I started from the V26.00 image. I replaced the splash screen with the ///M logo, replaced the navboot file in the image, burned it, entered the disk in my navi unit. I got the message that new software would be installed, blablabla, reboot, ...might take up to 6 minutes... and a few seconds later (certainly less than 20 seconds), I got a message that the update was successful, and that I could remove the disk and press OK. So far so good.
NOTHING CHANGED????? Still got the old splash screen, the version info I entered is not found (just reads 4.1.60 or something like that).

I entered the cd in my pc, copied the navboot file to my hard drive, checked the splash image again with the gifextractor, and I really did burn the correct image.

What did I do wrong?

Thx!

edit: @M3QP: working on that file. As soon as it is finished (and it works), I'll upload it somewhere, and post the link.

NOTE: If you already had V26 loaded, you have to drop a version, then re-upgrade BACK up to your "logofied" version for the update to take.

It won't update if the version is the same as the one already installed.
