Hi everyone,

I have a small problem (I hope), I just got a new MK4 satnav and the languages installed are Italian, German and French.

I loaded the v32 on it and still no english language loaded; then I edited the v32, deleted all languages and left only GB, F and D, from R_R and Languages folders and still no change to languages menu, and still has I, D, F only.

Any suggestion is greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

You need to make a new dir called 0507 In same dir as 0506, and copy the files over (from 0506) and put the new modded voice file in 0607, then hex edit

1: "voice.lst" (hex) with the new dir name (0507)
2: "lng_rel.tbl" (hex) with the new dir name (0507)

Save and make OS then burn then install

thanks for the quick response, I dont want to edit any language, I just want to replace Italian or French with English. I don't quite understand what do you mean by "new modded voice file", sorry.

If you were having POI alert with POIsON.

When the OS is loaded, the languages are loaded at the same time, if the nav gets updated but the voice files have not changed then they don't get loaded, so you have to force the nav to re-upload the voice files.

language text as well I want to replace because on the main menu, text languages are the same as voice languages that were shown to me after the update was done: I, D and F.

I belive that voice file are commanded by the text language right? so If I had english text loaded in the SET menu, automatically the voice language will load as well, am I right?

I still didn't get it with the "new modded voice file", sorry

So you want GB as an option in the menu?

Then you need navcoder or a trip to the dealer, this can't be changed (properly) with with navtweak.

OK, To hack this so that you have GB, you need to convert (modify) the OEM voice and text files from there original, say I, and copy the GB_F.CSF file and rename it to I_F.CSF, then export the English text (under Strings tab in navteak) and the import to the Strings tab.

Then rename the text feild for the I in the lang tab (fren) for GB instead of I.

No, the option in the menu. 1,2 or 3. selects both voice and text.

No, you need navcoder, or dealer to do this. (or the navtweak hack).

Read the POISon thread, its for audio alerts when near a speed cameras.

I have zipped up the files needed to do the hack.

open your v32.iso in image viewer (ultraIso, migicISO etc)

Overwrite the RR dir with the one in the zip file and overwrite the VOICES dir with the one in the zip file, then update your nav, it has a new version number 4-1/01

This is a hack BTW, so VR (voice) and the TV (text) my still be in Ita

It should make the menu now say GB, D, and F

Thanks a lot, It worked out, what can I say?! You are a genius!!

Just a remark if I may.... if I go back to change the language, say to F or D....and then back to GB, it still appears I instead of GB in the menu, but when I select it, it turns into GB.

Other than that, text and voice is English. Nice job indeed. I will not dare asking you how you did it, because I assume is too complicated.


many thanks again; you saved me from selling it and buy another one.

I must have missed a field in the menu text, sorry.

Remember it's a hack, so you may see things that are still in Ita from time to time.

Not really, as per previous posts.

Voice.
1: Make dir in Voices dir called 0507.
2: copy all files from 0506 to 0507.
3: rename/overwrite GB_F.csf to I_F.csf (in new 0507 dir)
4: Hex edit voices.lst to now say 0507 and not 0506
5: Hex edit lng_rel.tbl with the new dir name (0507)

Text
1: open navboot in navtweak.
2: go to string tab and export eng_lang to file (.txt)
3: go to string tab and import eng_lang to Ita.
4: edit I, D and F fields that have I with GB. (for menu text)

No problem, you're welcome.

I must say that's a lot of effort. Simply chaning the car to English the proper way would be muuuccch easier, and you end up with correct confi, not a "hack"
