That said, I was able to successfully go from 'bricked' on my nav, where it would just say 'Guidance by Garmin' continuously in a twitchy way, to a fully working and updated system.Ībsolutely DO NOT pay a dealer $1k + to replace this unit just because they aren't technically knowledgeable enough and/or are too lazy to fix the software on this. The system has virtually no ability to recover from a mistake, and is pretty crappy at letting you know what to expect when you have to wait 10+ min for something to happen as it loads the files. If the odds of fate are slightly at a disadvantage that day, you're screwed. If anything gets pulled out too early or disconnected, you're screwed.

The process to update this to begin with is long, convoluted and filled with pitfalls. I think it has the screen/radio from the '15. I have a RHB 430N unit on a 2016 Jeep Patriot. Everything seems to be working now.Īs has been mentioned already, the xml file is only needed if you are going through the official channels (chrysler/uconnect) for the update file.

I copied that folder onto a freshly formatted usb drive and proceeded with the emergency install as shown in the video.

iso image file in finder on my mac and I found the Garmin folder with gupdate.gcd inside. Ultimately, I downloaded RHB-RBZ.50.01.01.iso from Download Now | MyGig RHB 50.01.01 Software Update. I spent way to much time trying to find a workaround and I read a ton of posts on various forums. The number along with a generated xml file seemed to be necessary to download a working update file (gupdate.gcd). by garmin screen after a botched update, you probably won't have access to the 10-digit unit id number, and you won't be able to create the xml file that is required to download the gupdate.gcd file from chrysler/uconnect.

'If you are experiencing the boot loop/ hanging at the nav. I'm pretty sure Garmin knows about this, they are not fools.Ĭlick to expand.And then you read one of the comment below : It has worked perfectly for me, took 2 min. This second step should be repeated every 6 months or so, as I don't know if it collects the data even when 'MyTrends' is off. This will delete all routes in the units, and the problem is solved. So go in the System Options (can't remember which one), and turn of 'MyTrends'. As you use your car, this accumulates until you have the memory problem. In fact the unit keeps a record of every trip you do to be used by 'MyTrends' function.

Now the second part: the problem is some kind of memory full condition, and even deleting everything doesn't seem to cure it. Now the unit reboots and you seem to be able to use the unit, only to have the problem back a little later. It's a bit difficult to find this hidden button, but after a few try, you'll get it.

You do this by pressing on the lower right corner of the Intro screen( a bit above the HIDE NAV button) for about 10 seconds or so. It turns out the problem is not hardware but software (since it can run for a day or two). Tried everything I read, the best I got is to have it run for a day or two and it quit. I had the problem of the GPS screen frozen on the Garmin intro screen for about a year. It has now ran correctly for an entire month.
