Hey guys and gals, i got a hold of the Orange 3.80 Navi DVD (dont ask me how, but i can take a picture if you want proof). I am trying to do the OK button hack, but the 3.50 and 3.70 patches do not work (of course). Who can i contact, so that i can get rid of the OK button?!?!

 

*ahem* How did you get it?

Can you at least post a change log? I'm so close to ordering a 3.71 disk but I've been waiting for 3.80 which was supposedly coming out any day now.

 

I dont have anything besides the DVD...is the change log in the DVD?

 

well, the instructions for changing the background still work on 3.80.

i tried taking a picture of the disc from my iphone, but its camera SUCKS...i did take a picture of this:


the database version date is 09/19/2008

what database version date does the 3.7x DVD have??

 

You have to tell us where/how you got the new DVD before we help you!!!! Just kidding. Seriously, tell us.

 

I was about to buy the 3.71 version until I saw this. Where did you get this?

 

it was a one time favor from a friend.

i also noticed that when i pulled into my apartment complex, the name of my apartment complex showed up on the bottom (i didnt enter in a destination). Is this a feature on 3.7x DVDs?

 

Is there a ok button hack for the 3.7 orange disk???

I guess I've been out of the loop for while with this stuff.

thank you...

 

We all want copies of the cd or your will get NO HELP FROM US! j/k

 

i wish i could, but i dont think i have the power to. Supposedly, they use a special type of DVD, and that copies of this one will not work at all. I would if i could :/

 

Can anyone that has the 3.71 disk check their database and software version? I'm curious now much newer this 3.80 disk is.

I'm not trying to dish out $185 just to have a new disk come out the next week. I still can't believe how much they charge for those updated disks. Should be illegal.

 

i can look up an intersections for you guys as well, if you want to see how up to date it is.

 

Edit by Admin Ron A: I sent you a PM about this. You can't reply but that's ok as long as you get the message. You can also check your other post to see a reply by datrman.

 

we can test that out for you

 

it won't work. The 3.xx disks are PTP burn and normal disks are OPT burn... or the reverse order. basically one burns from the inside of the disk out, the other burns from the outside of the disk inwards.

 

Sweet Jesus, since mine is an 04, I feel a $185 hole in my pocket on the horizon.

 

tsx 2 nv - can you see if 4640 Wykeshire Ct Cumming, GA 30041 appears on the GPS?

 

it does not, i can type in the 4, but then my next options are only 2 or 3.

 

sorry for the OT.

so, isit possible to make a backup of 3.7 or 3.8 orange disks?

 

a working one, no. only 4.xx disks can be copied.

 

what would it take to get 4.XX discs to work with the Navi that reads Orange 3.X Discs?

 

A complete Navi system swap. They are totally different. Not worth it just to get "reduced pricing" navi disks.

 

Edit by Admin Ron A:

I deleted your text and sent you a PM to explain why.

 

I just got an offer from Acura for the Orange 3.8 dvd from my 2004 TSX, the offer is for the "2009" version and it is $149.00 I wonder if it's worth the update, I have not updated since we purchased the car 01 of 2004. Heck, I"d probably be happy with a 3.70 if i could find one.

 

Ditto : thinking of ordering it myself... but does this mean we could not hack into it to modify the startup screen?

 

Don't know that answer, sorry

 

you can still modified the startup screen on 3.8. the only thing that doesnt work is the navi ok nag hack.

trip computer hack -> OK
start up screen hack -> OK
Navi OK nag Hack-> Failed

 

bibo136,

From your reply, are you saying that you got the Trip Computer hack to work with 3.8? I was under the impression that the only modification that work with 3.8 is changing the bitmap on the splash screen.

Bill : )

 

you need to use kenny's mod file for the trip computer. then you need to use cebin to update the bin file otherwise it wont work.

if you want tell me which bin file your navi uses and I can send the the modified file

 

bibo136,

My '04 uses the BN2HH12C.BIN file. I've been waiting to upgrade to the 3.8 DVD but I've been holding off because I didn't want to lose the trip computer mod I've been using. I guess I wrongly assumed from comments I've read that this hack didn't work on 3.8. It's just the OK nag button hack that doesn't work with 3.8 right?

Thanks,
Bill : )

 

you are correct only the OK nag button hack doesn't work on 3.8. You will need to use CEBIN to repack the hack file into Bin file, dumpnavi program will throw an error and quit.

 

bibo136,

Thanks again for your replies. Since I'm only interested in the trip computer hack the nag button isn't an issue for me. When I last did this mod I used the dumpnavi application so I'm unfamiliar with cebin. I've downloaded cebin and kennyc's HMIManager.exe file and I'd like to run the process by you to see if I understand how it works using cebin. Assuming that when I get my copy of 3.80 and my car is still loading BN2HH12C.BIN, it looks like once I copy that bin file and the loader bin file to my hard drive, I use cebin's image command (image BN2HH12C.BIN) to set the current image file. Is my next step to execute the replaceFile command (replaceFile HMIManager.exe HMIManager.exe) to overwrite the original file in the bin with Kennyc's modified exe file? Since all I'm doing is replacing the HMIManager.exe there isn't any reason to first extract the files from the bin is there? Assuming that I'm on the right track my next step is to burn a new CD with the revised copy of BN2HH12C.BIN and the loader bin and reload these files into the navigation DVD drive just like I did before. Have I got the process down correctly?

Thanks,
Bill : )

 

I've got a 2004 MDX that is running the 3.80 Orange disc. I would love to patch this thing to add the trip computer as well as the OK hack, however, in all my searching, it doesn't sound possible.

I was able to use the basic NAVI-GUI program to change the splash. That wasn't a problem.

The BIN I am using is BN2HH110.BIN

BIBO136 - If you are able to help me at least get the trip computer going, that would rule. And now with it being almost a year since you were talking about this, maybe you or someone has a OK NAG fix for the Orange 3.80 disc?
