hope someone can help me...
That shouldn't happen, it should stay in test mode until you restart it.
well, when it enters testmode even if it enters testmode i can`t do anything it closes down it reboots again, and if in testmode while transfering files it stops working and reboots again, i found out that my flashdisk was empty out of sudden when i started the car it happend out of the blue..
mine stays in test mode until restarted as well
What might be happening is without the .exe that initializes communication with the uCOM on the AV board (due to empty flash disk) the reset watchdog's timer expires and it resets the Navi because it thinks it's stuck.
If you don't have enough time to copy the APL folder from your My Flash Disk backup back over to the flash drive before reset, there might be another option. If you've got Testmode 2.3, there is a file in the "testmode" folder called CopyTool.mscr. It's a script that gets executed by the CopyTool.exe (really Mortscript.exe that's been renamed so the AVIC executes it to enter testmode). You can edit CopyTool.mscr to add instructions to copy at least the APL folder over to your flash disk so that the uCOM init (I think it's called "initucom.exe") command gets executed which will reset the watchdog timer and thus keep you in testmode until reset. Use the XCopy command in your CopyTool.mscr file:
XCopy( source files, target directory [, overwrite?[, subdirs? ] ] )
So I think the command will be (assuming there's an APL folder in the root of your SD card:
XCopy( "\Storage Card\APL", "\My Flash Disk\APL", TRUE, TRUE )
Good luck.
well everything is going fine booting up into testmode, but even with a script it reboots over and over again, it says xcopy wait please then bam it reboots even doing anything the boot up to testmode takes 20 seconds or so, and being in testmode rebooting back again takes 8-10 seconds again and you are at square 1...i dont understand it at all, i think i am not the only one with this problem around....
Well to show a easy way how it reacts i have put it on you tube see url i am getting crazy slowly
