I bought an 08 Xterra with a previously installed AVIC-F900BT.
I've run the gambit of issues this unit seems to have and have fixed them as they come up - so far.
I am running the Hybrid 4.01 SW update mod, Difaltia 3.6 mod, and IGO 8.3 2016 Q3 mod map packs for the west coast.
After a bit of research and trial and error I have successfully swapped Samantha's TTS (US) voice for Serena's TTS (UK) voice and it is more pleasant.
However, I am unable to swap from Jason (US) to Serena (UK) in the regular voice prompt. I have added LANG_ENG_UK_F1.ZIP to the LANGUAGE folder and the associated voice ZIP to the VOICE folder. It took a minute for the system to recognize Serena TTS, but it does not seem to recognize the other voice package for the UK.
I have "uncommented" on different occasions the following script lines:
With no success. It always, and only reads Jason ENG (US) as one of the defaults and does not recognize the (UK) pack as an option.
Do you think I need to "uncomment" one of these?

Thoughts?
