Here's how you use it.
* Grab the file, and unpack it. (Password is "A" without quotes).
* Rename the NaviPnd.dll on your SD card to NaviPnd.bak. (Just in case this doesn't work, you can go back).
* Copy the NaviPnd.dll from my file over to your card.
* Plug it into the car, and try it.

Disclaimer:
This hack comes with no warranty. If it causes your car to become sentient and swear at you, it's not my fault. You use it at your own risk. As I've said above, if it fails, and prints an error message, take a picture, and post it to aid in debugging the problem.

How it works:
The code reads the card ID from the SD card, and then compares it to what it expects. (I assume it's part of the hash in the unlock files). It then makes a decision based on it. "Is this good? Or is it bad?". I changed the "Is it good" to say "It is good", and to go on about it's business. If we're lucky, it'll just work, and we're home free. If they copy the card ID over again later, and use it for something, it might not work. I have a couple of angles up my sleeve if that's the case.

Good luck!

Hello FrankRizzo,
Unfortunately it does not work with me. Am I doing something wrong?
For me, the message comes:
"The navigation data is damaged. Please contact your Mercedes-Benz dealer"

P.S. Google Translator

Please give me the exact phrase that you got. I'll search for it in the program file, but I can't search for the translation. (If that makes sense).

the exact error message is: "The Navigation data is corrupted. Please contact your Mercedes-Benz Partner."
Can you tell me about messages your email address. Then we can talk there, and if it works post here.
