It sounds like you had a problem with either the burning or a corrupted navboot file (what version of navtweak did you use)?

What splash did you use?

Follow Jochens advice and change the language in navcoder, that it way it works properly as OEM.

I am pretty sure it was a corrupted navbootfile. I tried to alter the version number using the hex editor that you recommended, but my guess is that I didn't do this properly somehow. I wonder if that value being messed up could have this result.

I used this image (from the splash screen thread):



I would have to check the NavTweak version I used at home, but it was the latest one from the sticky link on here.

I will probably end up giving the hex editor thing another go, but I wish I knew what I did wrong first..

This stuff is fun but nerve wracking

So I am still trying to do this but having the same issue. When I try the new CD with the new version of the SW I get this screen:


Here is what I am doing:

Opening ISO of V32 using MagicISO.

Pulling out the NAVBOOT file from V_2 > RR > 0101 > BMWC01S > APP_SW folder.

Opening the NAVBOOT file in NavTweak 2.6

Going to Images > rombitmaps > image 14 and replacing it with a new picture (I have tried 2 of them, both working .gifs of the correct size from the splash screen thread)

Saving the NAVBOOT file with NavTweak, then replacing it in the ISO image in MagicISO.

Then I am taking out the SW_REL.TBL and LNG_REL.TBL files from the BMWC01S folder in the image.

Opening PSPad, opening one of the files in it. Right click > hex edit mode.

Editing the file like so:



Doing this for both the language and the SW file.

Saving these to the BMWC01S folder in the image.

Saving the image using MagicISO, then burning it at 1x on ImgBurn.

When I go to update the car, I see the SW version update as 10.10, so that looks good. Then I get the screen I showed above. Then the screen is black and the Nav is dead until I use a stock V31 disk that I have to bring it back to life.

Am I missing something or doing anything wrong that would cause this?

Thanks guys

You should not change the version number of the language file unless you made new language files.

Remember the language files are stored in a directory structure that reflects the language file version number.

So leave the language file version number alone!

^ agreed,

Also, you seem to be doing every thing correctly, however, you may want to burn using imgburn and select the SLOWEST rated speed of the blank cd disc (not x1).

Only use magiciso to make the image, use imgburn to burn it.

Ok thanks guys. ccf I saw in an older post of yours to edit both the language and the SW file so that's why I did that.

Will try again now with only modding the SW file.

Thanks again!

Sigh.

Just tried again without the lang table modded, got the same result.

I see the intial screen with the desired version number on it:



But that screen is only on for a second before it gives me the software error screen I posted above.

I am on a MKIV, in an E46 M3, and on software 4-100 (although I am using a V31 disk to bring my nav back to life after every time I brick it

I just can't figure what I am missing here.

I think I am going to try to mod JUST the SW version number, no splash screen or ohter changes, that way I can start to narrow down where I am going wrong here.

Any input is appreciate, thanks as always guys.
