-Run AU_BMP_Mod.exe
-Browse to “Original Bootloader File” (C:\some location\LOADING.KWI)
-If using V12 disc “Search Type” = “Quick”, Not sure what will happen with other versions. Preview of original image should appear.
-Browse to “New Bitmap”. Note file format requirements
-Hit “Modify”
-Hit “Exit”
-Create a CD/DVD with original root directory files from original navigation DVD, replacing LOADING.KWI with C:\some location\LOADING.KWI
-Insert into Navigation unit
-Start the car, and hold Map/Guide, Menu, and Cancel for 5 seconds.
-Hit the "Version" button on the touch screen
-Hit the "Load Disc" button on the Version screen.
-Navigation Unit will load the new firmware and reboot
-Take out your burned CD/DVD and put back the original navigation DVD

wow its actually up now! someone try ittt

just wondering is there a way to revert back to the old splash screen if we do change it to whatever we want?

[Kodak]

to revert back, just put in your original disk and follow the last set of instructions from "insert into navigation unit"

[Kodak]

Has anyone else tried it? Would be interested to see what images people are putting up.

[Darkii_]

Not yet mate, will post up some pics when i do

[king9]

tried this, just said to "check disc"... using v14.

[Kodak]

I developed the software with my V12 disc, should be easy to modify to V14 or later

[king9]

mmm.. can you do it? haha

[Kodak]

sure, just need a disc

HELP - Pressing Menu Map/Guide Cancel does nothing for me!

When are you supposed to press it? Turn on car, splash screen appears, then the warning with the OK button appears. When do I press/hold the buttons?

[Kodak]

press and hold all three. I think you can do it at any time, but to be sure hit the ok button first.

[Kodak]

My bad, the buttons are set up, menu, and cancel. And you don't need to press the ok button ;-)

[MRH-22A]

Set up, Menu, and Cancel worked.

My DVD didnt work :( "check disk" or something.

[MRH-22A]

OKAY i think DVD/CD +R cant be read because I burnt it onto a CD -R (whatever files would fit onto the cd) and it worked!

[Kodak]

Great, what image did you put up?

Hi Kodak,
I've got a 2003 Accord CM2 wagon (JDM) and I have a couple of factory navi DVDs, (the orange original and the blue update) but I not had any success trying to copy. I've used two different D/L burners, Verbatim D/L +R disks, Roxio and the latest Nero and so far i've made 5 coasters that appear to have all the files but will not load in the car.
I bought the navi disks from Yahoo auctions in japan via a friend - they work in the car perfectly but of course japanse language, maps, etc.
There are lots of these imported cars in NZ and most arrive without the DVD, so I'd like to make a few available.
Could you detail please the process that you use to copy the disks?
Also would you be interested in selling me one of your copies? - it would be interesting to see if it works in a JDM car (I assume your disk is the Australian market version)

[Londa]

Thanks - thats two votes for getting a copy of your Aussie disc, happy to pay costs etc, cheers Dean
