It should be possible to go into the image files and alter the file names to trick the system into playing the voices you prefer to hear. See http://www.xoutpost.com/navigation-sy...-software.html for some tips on how to do this.

First post. Thanks for uploading the files and the directions. Much appreciated. I'm hoping to upgrade to v27 with a new splash screen.

Hi, I think I've done it... I tried the upgrade, but I must have ejected the disc too soon.

I put the disc in the drive on the initial boot, and all seemed to go well. The screen notified me about loading software, but then the system went to a blank screen for a several minutes. I then shut off the car and ejected the disc, causing the screen to go into a blank state on boot. The radio works, but all information is absent.

My question is: Can I fix this myself or will I need to visit the dealer? I've upgraded the nav several times, but this is the first problem I've encountered. I appreciate any advice in resolving this issue of mine.

Try pulling out the fuse and waiting some time before placing the fuse back in. See what happens. If the unit is still showing a blank screen, try downgrading to a older version and then upgrade. You may need to have the car re-coded by the dealer after this.

I'll give that suggestion a shot.

Edit: I pulled fuses 7 and 41 for the Navigation, but the screen still comes up blank. I'm at a loss. The worst part is if I do have to deal with the dealer.

I should have included the fact mine is a 3 series, not an X series.

Have you tried to put the Nav OS CD in the drive from an earlier version? v23/24/25?

No, but I'll give that a try right now. I wanted to avoid that option, since I don't want to get into European mode.

If that downgrade to an earlier version works, then you should be able to reinstall the v27 CD and leave it in to do it's duty until it ejects itself. If it doesn't eject within a half hour, then there's likely a problem with the copy of v27 that you burned.

Good luck!

SO you guys and gals know .. In perspective view the street names are still not there. My distances are in Yards still. IS there anyway to put them back to feet?

Correct. You CAN possibly recover the nav by going back to a known good version.

One note of caution. NEVER turn off the car or try to force the software disk out during an upgrade. If it fails, once the CD comes out PUT in an older version without turning ANYTHING off

By the way I posted on the other thread that you can remove the instrument cluster fuses to recover Aux Ventillation.
