Hi last night i was playing in the engineering menu and i formatted the whole comand aps and did a lot of things on it but nothing happend so i said ok and parked the car turned off and the nav display turns on and says software update and cant stop it nothing is working anymore i inserted all the Cd's from Mercedes and it's not updating made a lot of Cd's with software that i found on gpsundergrund but still nothing. I read here the i stop it from the battery i might lose the comand aps and until next week i can't go to a mercedes dealer what i ask from you if you cand help me put any software on it so i can turn it off. I have an E280 2005 3.2 CDI NTG1 i think.
Sorry for my bad English
Thanks
You are not very "lucki". The head unit seems to be waiting for the basic firmware, not that from navi discs. It should recover from a service CD, but not from any of those (I do not have the correct one, I know there is a forum member who would have one, I cannot remember who it was).

The service CD for the head unit is different for Euro cars from that for US cars. I'll let you know if I can find a US CD, or why not ask from Hubi, the image can be sent via email.
Sorry I logged in with a facebook account and thought the will post my location from it. Now i managed to find a US CD and it worked but no video a lot of wierd stuff in it like satellite radio and doesn't read the track list and it's blocking. Can you give me the Euro update and the combination of keys so i can switch it back to euro ?
Thanks

Previous owners who have done that, say it is not possible to go back. You can always try but I believe my latest service CD is not good for that, the first release could work.
Engineering menu is bad for people who don't know what they are doing, and this is why it keeps getting harder and harder to figure out how to get into it... People mess things up when they don't know what to do...
You should indicate your location at your profile specifically if it is something different from the US.
I've got the Euro service CD by the way.
Please i have a problem..

Not the navigation system, your COMAND. That is the device in your picture. Your navigation system is in the trunk if you eben have one.

So you’re accusing me of stealing your bricked unit? I’m a well respected member of this forum for over a decade and have helped a lot of people with their **** when nobody else would or could help them.

I dont say nothing about you, I think you understand what you want, i say i don't have trust in a stranger on internet to send my command. You can reply to me"hey it can't be fixed with a cd, the problem is .... you can send it to me to fix it", , but not like you replied, , , ,anyway, lets close this subject, , ,i will repost again my message later

I think you got off on the wrong foot with one of the few guys on here who can really help you. All you have to do is read some of the posts he's made and you'll realize he knows what he's doing. It sounds like you bricked it and you probably need someone who knows how to use DAS/Xentry to fix it. I doubt any CD/DVD from MB will fix it. You should just PM him to find out cost/location and other questions.
