[WTF Chuck]

I ended up changing the name on the .iso from swdl to swdl_boombox_6.5GT_CVO.iso

I ended up changing the name on the .iso from swdl to swdl_boombox_6.5GT_CVO.iso

I did that and got the message if I wanted to update from "1.19.1.1 to trunk"

didn't know what to do with that....

[WTF Chuck]

I did not read the prompt when it came up and just hit yes
So I don't know what it said But a few people have success
by changing the name

Just tried it....got stuck in a software update not complete, please re-insert USB drive loop. Not even shutting the radio and power got it out...had to put the 1.19.1.1 update on the USB and re-update the radio to get working again.

Did you remove the NaviSync folder when trying to update the maps so that the swdl.iso was the only file on the stick? I tried with the folder on the stick and with just the iso.....so far no luck either way.

Just noticed that someone said the file was over 3GB...my swdl.iso is barely 16MB.....that could be a problem

That iso file directs it to the other folders to pull the updates. I'm having the same issue as you clear down to the re-insert usb message. Reformatted the usb, uploaded 1.19.1.1 again to restore the radio to functioning. Cleared the usb, put the footprint back on it so Naviextras would see it. Downloading the map updates to the usb this time instead of to the PC and then copying it to the usb. Hoping for better luck this time around. Going to be a few hours before I have it from the website onto the bike to check if it worked.

I selected the map update from the NaviExtras this time. The USB auto-updated when the software found it so I have the swdl.iso on the USB, but I am downloading the map update which is taking some time. I will see what kind of file that generates when the download is done.

The adventure continues......

UPDATE----with map update on the USB key(in the NaviSync folder) AND the swdl.iso file, the radio found it and is applying the 1 of 1 NAV update. Now let's hope it finishes.

[WTF Chuck]

Were did you get the map update the first time

[mjb765]

Were did you get the map update the first time

The first time NaviExtras said it downloaded an update to the USB stick and I had to install it...so it looks like I was running the installer without the actual map update on the key. Now I see the swdl.iso is just the application that points the radio to the NaviSync folder on the key. Just poor directions and prompts by the software.

and it does take a while---been running 1/2 hour on the bike and it's just over 1/2 way done. My battery tender will be working harder than usual tonight.

Mission accomplished!

Mission accomplished!

Did you have to rename the iso file?

[bakon]

Dumb question but is this US maps? If I understand correctly you have to do radio update first?  Sorry but I understand most of what was posted but missed the order. I am guessing this is first map update ever offered??

[OBB]

Okay. After 24 minutes of authenticating, I renamed the file like Chuck did. Plugged it in and after asking me if I wanted to update to "trunk" it did this. Will go out in a few and check it again. Garage is unheated and its a little chilly here right now.

[mjb765]

The update to trunk is what screwed me up. I had to re-apply the 1.19.1.1 update to get it to work again. The I let the Navixtras software download the swdl.iso file to the USB key, then I downloaded the map update and it automatically put it on the USB. Then went back to the bike and tried again and this time it worked.
