Another successful upgrade to v27!!! Woohoooo

Had a slight problem with the first attempt, I changed the language pack to the british female and it said there was a problem with upgrade. Anyway, took the disk out and lost my nav!!!

Reburnt the disk, just changing the logo and leaving the language as it was and everything top notch now

Said it was GB female voice during upgrade, so will see tommorrow...

Also changed my startup logo, thanks to nitrumluap for the PSD file of his excellent work and the rest of you guys for showing the rest of us how to do it!!!

On an ever so slightly different note, I read that if you downgrade then upgrade again it puts you into "NO LOCATION" mode (as well as putting you into Euro mode, no problem, cos I'm here

). By any chance, does it also happen to unlock the TV module so screen stays on when moving! Looking to do a custom iPod install, and this would be very necessary!!!

Kam - first, congrats on the upgrade to a custom version of V27

On your question, no, it does not have any impact on the TV module or being able to have in-motion capability. That is controlled by an i-bus signal and you need a module that can intercept that signal in order to defeat it.

Thanks UCrewX5, the instructions here have made it extremely easy for us novices!!!

Thought that was the case with the in-motion. Have infact already ordered but thought it would be worth asking! Got a load more info from HacktheiBus and ipodlinux on the necessary info to get the iPod Video on screen, so just as soon as the bits arrive...

BMW X5 4,6IS -03
MKIV with version 4-1/12 (V20.1)

I downloaded the V27 file (mounted it with MagicDisc, burnt it with Roxio CD creator, lowest speed, on a Imation CD-R). The burnt copy works fine on my computer.

Tried the upgrade according to the instructions I collected after reading 30+ replies on this forum thread. .

After I inserted the disk the screen displayed some text about loading disc. It did not display any upgrade information text or question. The screen went blank. I left it running for 20+ min. Every now and then the screen "blinked" a little (but no information on it) and I can hear the CD in the DVD reader at the back spinning/reading the disk every now and then. After 20min I gave up. Took out the CD and inserted the map CD again. However, the screen remains blank (radio is working but no info on screen). Tried to turn off the power and back on again a little later. Still no information on screen.
Did I crash the old installation?
Is it possible to upgrade straight from V20.1 to V27 as I tried?
Any ideas how to solve it?

Thanks!

Thanks for this update , I did it without any problem. I even change the logo and put in the Dutch language. The only thing I regret is that I now lost the GB language because my menu shows me " GB - F - D " ( GB= English & F= French & D = German) and at first I changed the French language to the Dutch but the whole menu stays in French and since I do not understand or can read this language I was forced to do it to the English language. Is there a possibility to change the menu that it for example shows me " GB - US - D " and I can change the GB or US in Dutch and keep also the English language ?

Edit: Thanks to Lebowski, my problem is solved.

Hi!
Here at Russia, i have a problem with Megaupload. They have only 500 slots for all Russia. This slots are always busy. My antivirus doesnt give me to download megaupload adware (they promise, that with adware there will be no slots limit), so, before uninstalling AV, i decided to ask here, if someone could upload it to my fast FTP, please, write me PM. Thank you.

I gotta ask... what good is v27 with perspective view? That view has no street names other than major highways. Admittedly the view looks cool, but i find it completely useless. Are there plans to add street names to it? (at least the upcoming streets in the direction you are traveling)
