Creating a Hybrid Nav Disc

Since the v6.1 Nav Disc, the general override procedure no longer works. In order to use your v6.1/v7.1 Navigation CD with an override you must create a hybrid Nav DVD. This will show you how to make the v6.1 Navi DVD w/ the version 5.1 override capability. You will need to author a Dual Layer DVD+R w/ all the files from your v6.1 NAV DVD & replace the v6.1 loading .kwi w/ the v5.1 loading.kwi in the main directory of the DVD.

You can download the file from HERE

Once you burn this new "hybrid" DVD, you can do the volume screen service menu procedure to get to the override button!

Obviously, you'll need a double-layer DVD+R (I use Memorex), and the mastering program of your choice. I use Prassi "Ones". Here's the link for a free download http://www.bitburners.com/Software/D...NES_by_Prassi

Get your original v6.1 NavDVD's out and make sure it is clean. If not, wash it with warm soap and water and use a soft towel to DAB the extra water away.
Make a folder on your computer called "v6.1" and copy the contents of the v6.1 DVD to that folder.
Make a file on your computer called v5.1 and download the v5 loading.kwi file from HERE
Start your mastering program and create a new DATA DVD.
Drag all the files and folders from the v6.1 directory you created EXCEPT the LOADING.KWI file to the project.
Drag the LOADING.KWI file from the v5.1 folder to the project.
Burn the DVD+R as a "DVD Incremental - Closed", "ISO 9660 + UDF".

After it's loaded here is how to UNLOCK the navigation system features. The following can be done either when you're parked or when the car is moving so you do NOT have to do this before starting to drive.

To enable all the NAV system functions that were grayed out because the car is moving do the following:

Press the MENU button to the right of screen.
Touch VOLUME at top center of screen.
Touch Upper Left Corner of screen.
Touch Lower Left Corner of screen.
Do it again
Touch Upper Left Corner of screen.
Touch Lower Left Corner of screen.
A service menu will appear.
The bars are black but turn turquoise when you touch any bar.
Touch and hold the OVERRIDE bar until you hear a beep (about 6-8 seconds).
When you lift you finger from that bar it will turn BLUE, you're done.
Touch the Upper Right Corner of the screen to close the service menu.
Then press the MAP (voice) button to go back to the NAV map.

You can now enter addresses, POIs, and so forth when the car is moving and you also have the latest Version 6.1 maps, POIs, and so forth.

If you turn the engine off you must do this again but remember you never have to stop because you can do this while the car is moving. In fact I don't UNLOCK the Nav systems features every time I drive because I seldom use the NAV system in my own city neighboorhood area.
