Default MMI 3G Emergency Update Stuck

Hello Everyone,
I think I bricked my MMI. Its stuck in the Emergency Update Mode. I was messing around in the green screen and accidently hit emergency update without knowing what it was. The system restarted on its own and went into Emergency Update Mode. I do not have any MMI software to get it out of it. I tried hitting multiple button combinations to get it to abort without success. How do I get out of this. Please help. I tried resetting it, but it keeps going back to this screen. Its a 2010 A6 Quattro Premium Plus 3.0T.

There should be note in front of the owner's manual...Don't mess around on the Green screen menu, unless you actually know what you are doing.

Are you able to do a 3 button reset in your MMI? How about pressing the "Tone" and "Back" button for 5 seconds?

Read the following, and if you still can't get anywhere...be prepared for a visit to the dealer - AudiEnthusiasts Master

Thank you for your kind words of wisdom. You sir are correct. I have no clue what I was doing, tried to get my Bluetooth music to stream from my phone and then I saw more stuff to mess with. I got it to work with a new firmware, however its not the proper one for the vehicle, and nothing except the radio works now. I tried a few other versions, just cant find the right one. Thought this site had some experts who could help out. I don't have the money right now to take it to a dealership.

Default Firmware files needed

You seem to have the MAPS data on the SD Card and not the FIRMWARE data on the SD card.
Reason 2, you need to have the sd card in slot 1 when you initiated the emergency boot.
