VW RNS Bootlogo (HELP)

[Matthew FR]

Hi, seen a few threads on "How to" change the boot logo on the VW RNS510.
Wont seem to work for me - took pictures to show what happens:

So when I download the ISO file from the internet it saves here:

Already tried burning that straight onto a disk without opening but had no luck.

When you double click it it creats a file on the desk top:

Tried burning it also, no luck.

When you open up the file to see whats inside:

Tried a few different logos just incase one genuinely didnt work but had no luck with any of them.. Each time I do the logo update on the RNS I get this:

Normal bit:

Then this bit pops up (Doesnt prompt me to hit anything just goes straight to this):

Someone please help

How are you burning the ISO to a disk?

How are you burning the ISO to a disk?

That will be your problem. you are burning the ISO as a file. you need to burn the ISO image. I'm not a MAC person but I believe MAC have a built in ISO burner called "Disk Utility". your best bet is google "mac os burn iso" and get a how to guide.

let me know how you get on. Also what boot image did you choose?

The thing you download is a file anyway, you can't just burn an image because there isn't one there - see the pictures above. Perhaps I get Nero burner and just burn the downloaded file without opening it. First one I went for was the normal seat one but looked like it was cracked

Nice choice.

Sorry you misunderstood the word image, my fault. Image in computer speak is an exact copy of a physical disk. You are burning the ISO as a file. You need to convert the ISO back into a physical disk format. Think of it as burning a music CD and a MP3 CD.

Awesome! Ill give it a go tomorrow and let you know how it goes! Does it have to be burnet onto a DVD because the instructions just say CD?

 

[Dan_FR_21]

I think you can use either. The space it takes up on a disk is tiny and can easily fit on a CD. Saying that I used a DVD when I did mine just because I only had blank DVDs.

Well tried all that, pretty sure it's broken now. Put the DVD in to do the logo update and it turned white and now won't do anything. F*ck.

Have now got what's called 'the white screen of death'
From what I have read online I can just scrap it now. F...ck!!!!!

As said you need to use an ISO burner, also burn at the slowest possible speed

 

[CharlieRCupes]

I do all mine on blank DVD's it works just fine. If you cannot get the unit to do anything disconnect the battery for 10min and start again.

I did use an ISO burner and burnt at the slowest speed. Just took the unit out and pluged it back in. Still doing the same thing, from what ive read online its broke. Cant do a software update either as the cd thats inside wont come out. All im getting is a black white screen and nothings working except the lights, no radio, aux, cd ect
