I have the 3.A0 navigation disk. I have done A TON of reading about how the hack for 3.8 & newer also works for 3.A0 too. I have tried everything that I can think of, going through over 5 disks trying to get the Navi-Hack to work........still unsuccessful. Can someone please assist me?

If you think you are doing all the procedures right, then make sure you are burning the CD/DVD in ISO format. Took me around 5 disc too to realize "Crap, I wasn't burning it as ISO and instead as a file CD, that's why it wasn't working!"

Best of luck to you.

TheStudent77

I tried to look at that too. How do I do that? I have been to my "properties" of my CD Burner & can't find where I change that. I'll admit, I'm not the most computer savvy person in the world, but I can usually figure most things out.
Thanks for the tip. I'll look at it again.

Hey if you don't have a CD/DVD burning software then you are most likely not burning it as an ISO image. (Dragging and dropping files onto a Blank CD/DVD from My Computers doesn't work) Go Download Nero Burning Software Trial Version, allows you 15 days free and once you got it installed, just open it up and you'll see all the different formats that you can burn your CD/DVD in. ISO, MUSIC, DAT, FILE, ETC. Choose ISO and just drag all the files that you need onto it. Not sure what files you need on 07+ TL, but 04-06 only needed 2 files I believe...can't remember clearly it's been quite a while since I did mine. If you burned it in ISO format, when you load the disc and pop it in the DVD Player in the trunk, the screen should say loading or something and takes around 2 mins to load up the disc, if you've gotten it in the wrong format, after you pop it in the DVD Player, the screen should save disc read error in no more than 30 seconds. So make sure you are actually burning it as a ISO image.

Good Luck

Can somebody help me with hacking the 3.40a. It would be nice if I got a step by step because I am kind of new! Thanks

henryrodriguez

it's able to do this on a mac, right?

henryrodriguez

Scratch the post above. SORRY.

I've gotten to step four, and that's where it stops. The HMIManager patch doesn't work when I double click on it. It says,
"The version file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. check your computer's system information to see weather you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher."
Im running windows 7, how is everyone else doing it?
ANY Help would be appreciated!!

Any progress at all getting the REMOVE-OK button with the White Discs on 07-08 TL/TLS??

Is the source code available that was used for the 04-06 models ? I figure some of us here should be able to figure this out and maybe a few cool other tricks!

Thoughts ?

Im not able to get the acura_emblem.bmp off my splash screen I tried making it bigger and all it did was make the emblem bigger, its driving me crazy can you please help me with this. Im trying to change wife's splash screen tsx 2006 I was able to do my 07 TL fine without a problem . Thanks .

WilForeal

How did you get acura_emblem.bmp off the splash screen?? This is driving me crazy , just wasted around 6 cd-r on this damn thing.. why is this TSX giving me trouble, worked flawlessly on my TL without needing to remove this icon.

After 4 long days.. 7 CD's 2 dual layer dvds I was able to successfully get the Splash Screen working THANKS!! I was a able to follow the instructions above but saw that both Acura_Emblem.bmp and Honda_Emblem.bmp were the same size image and file size wise. I copied Acura_Emblem and resized it to 1 x 1 pixels and then followed the instructions above to update Acura_Emblem from 09Jog2.bin & 09Touch2.bin I then renamed the file to Honda_Emblem.bmp and updated that file in the same 2 folders: 09Jog2.bin & 09Touch2.bin just to play it safe. So at the end you will be left with Acura_Emblem.bmp and Honda_Emblem.bmp being 1 x 1 pixel bmp files. Hopefully it works out for anyone else. I love this forum and Thanks again. Below is the initial emblem files from 09Jog2.bin after extract.

I'm glad it worked for you, I ended up with several CD-R and DL-DVD coasters myself. This forum is great indeed!!!

Just got 'splash screen / ok-bypass / a/c&diagnostic in info menu' to work on a Canadian 05 TSX with the new 2011 3.A0 orange navigation DVD. Already modified file (except splash screen) can be found here
http://www.acura-cl.com/forums/showp...96&postcount=8

However the loading file on my car was "BNHN404A.BIN", so you can just rename the file in the link above and it'll work fine.

i dont understand how there are no hacks for 4.92 discs...

you can "back them up" or find a 4.92 rip online
mod the bin file that does the DVD-R check which is also available online
then burn it to a dual layer DVD-R. done.


i dont get why its that difficult to remove the "okay" nag from the new discs.

kingba45

^ finally someone to share my problem. I have version 4.62 and want to get rid of ok button. So it is not possible?

Waltah

iTrader: (3)

i wish i knew what i was doing , id love to help figure it out.

does anyone have any info on how the "okay" screen was coded OUT of prior discs? i could at least experiment.

RedsTL

I'm with you guys, I have some coding experience. I feel like if we had someone who knew what was going on w/ the previous discs, they could probably help with the newer ones or at least give us an idea of what was done.

Anyone else interested at looking into this ?!

cinobyte

Can some one hook me up on a patched NO OK screen navi.exe. I keep getting crc error failure and I know I amusing the correct navi.exe

I have version 3.50 dvd

It's all Greek to me, but I came across this when unsuccessfully looking for a hack for 4.81... http://www.vistabug.com/bb/viewtopic.php?id=41 It's all Greek to me. Hope it helps.

cinobyte

I got all my stuff fixed up thanks for all the info

bishoy

Ok so I am trying to use these commands but I am getting "Unable to open BIN file"

anyone knows what this is all about? am i doing something wrong?

xtasea24

Anyone still have the files needed to hack the 3.8 Navi? I had it hacked before, but when the car went into the shop they pulled the battery and it reset to factory. Any help would be appreciated as I can't seem to find an active link for the hack files.

cinobyte

does the 3.50 disc version work for 3.80?

xtasea24

No. I get an error when trying to load the 3.7 version. Just loops.

I see that the 3.8 were available (I used to have them) but the downloads are no longer active.

bishoy

I am assuming that alot of people have the honda oddessy version of the new navi dvd.... i have been trying to do this but for some reason i cant get it to work, and now I no longer have access to a PC, as I own a mac and i went back home. are there any instructions for a mac?

if not, are there any other solutions for PC? if they are simple enough, i might be able to have my little sister do it for me on her laptop and give me the .iso via dropbox

sorry to be annoying, but i drive a TL-S...... i have to somehow hide my screen from people the first few seconds lol

genokan

This thread needs to be pruned reallllllllly badly. My eyes burn and I still can't hack the 4.92 disk

bouncer07

Isn't it a whole lot easier if people just give us the complete file to download?

bishoy

yes, it would be. If anyone would be willing to send me the modified files, I will create an .iso for everyone, so that all they would have to do is download the .iso and burn it on a blank CD.

Waltah

iTrader: (3)

there may or may not be an iso on demonoid...

bishoy

Alright guys, I got a hold of the modified files. You can download those files here: http://db.tt/pS0O8nc

THIS IS NOT THE COMPLETE NAVIGATION DISK, JUST THE MODIFIED SPLASH SCREEN FILES

When you download the .zip, unzip the files and burn them on a blank CD. dont do anything to these files

follow these steps:
1. Turn the ignition to Acc 1. Open the DVD reader's front panel and wait until you get an error message on the Navi screen.
2. Remove the DVD if necessary, insert your CD and close the flap
3. Press and hold Menu, Map/Guide and Cancel simultaneously for about 5 seconds until the Diagnostic menu appears.
4. Select Version
5. Select DownLoad and press the button

If all is ok with your CD the transfer should start. After about 20 seconds you should get a message telling you not to turn off the engine. This is followed by a progress bar.

The transfer takes about 3 minutes after which the Navi will reboot. If all has gone well you should see your new image followed by an error saying the wrong disk is inserted. Put the DVD back in and turn the ignition off and back on again.

and that is it. It should work.

Thank you to TL-S NCO who supplied the files and instructions. I did not do anything besides put them here for you

^What image did you use for the startup screen?

bishoy

this one:

shmookles

Bishoy, does this get rid of the need to hit "ok" each time the car starts? Also is this startup image reversible?

bishoy

Shmookles, no, this does not eliminate the need to press the "OK" button, it just changes the image. And yes, it is reversable all you have to do is load the original DVD in the car and follow the same instructions that were included with my post (except you would use the original DVD instead of the one you downloaded)

ok im frusturated all i keep getting is check disk , ive modded the bin files , but it wont load im frazzled help

xtasea24

Anyone have these files that they'd be willing to share?

I'd be fine doing the mods to the files and uploading an ISO for all to use who are still on the 3.8... but I got nothing.. and I can't find the original files I had...

aznfrenchboyca

Beautiful screen Bishoy. Will this work on 4.92?

Azndjay

new member here and just picked up a TL-S and figure out the 133 bytes error msg in dos.

i update my navi to 4.92 and change the wallpaper so its the same steps with the white disc.

since i notice so of the member been having problems with 8to16 when they try to convert there image. here what i figure out you would have to use paint shop pro . you can get it torrents or go to there website and download the free 30 day trail.

1. when you make a picture and when you down size it to 480x234 its going to be 220,000 bytes but you need to get it to 111,00 bytes .
2. so you go to Paint shop pro and click on IMAGE and decrease color depth to 256 color
3. save it as bmp and your 220byte image should be at 111bytes or110bytes now
4. you can use 8to16 and it should work.

for the 4.92 disc its also here if anyone was wondering
