tried to update to 4.0, everything looked like it went well until i restarted my car and now the stereo reboots after about a minute and a half. super annoying. tried doign a reset and it didnt do anything, tried re applying update, same thing

 

wont downgrade to 2.0

 

anyone have the full back up for this unit?

did you use the original 4 update?

 

if not, it might be that the "My Flash Disk" is full, try to boot in CE check your disk space and if one delete some countries you don't need.

 

i got these reboots when i updated POI and had only about 6kb free disk space free...

i am completely at a loss here - i found the test mode files i think (mita cap and testmode) folders

 

put them on an SD card and it just boots back up like it has been, going past the splash screen to the main page with "system start up in progress, please wait" and then reboots and repeats.

 

any help would be greatly! appreciated
