Help! I hosed my MMI!
Here is how I got into this mess:
Thanks for your help!
Brian
- I was messing with the Green Menu, and one of the options was to erase and update – well, it erased, but, I didn’t have the update 😉 –
- So, upon reboot, it went to a Green screen (EmApp..xxx) and then Red Screen searching for metainfo file.
- Downloaded the HN+_EU Firmware instead of US and installed that on my US based MMI
- Now it just boots up and shows the borders, some colors, etc…looks like its going to the appropriate menus, but, cannot read it without the text showing up
- Went back in with VCDS, 5F, Adaptation, Channel 6, was still set to 1, set it back to 0 and saved it, then went back in and set it back to 1 and saved it.
- Still cannot get into Green Menu
Thanks for your help!

WOW, why is the EU firmware installed on the US MMI
The US and EU firmware version is totally different (languages and everything else)
For example 0942 EU FW is 760 mb size, 0942 US FW 371mb size (zip, rar)
The last FW where the green menu is enabled is 0900
Do you know which version you have installed ??

Thanks, Spijun! Tried this many times..activates script, try to get into the green menu several times and nothing. And I've been in the green menu before, hence the mess I've gotten myself into, by loading the EU firmware vs. US. So, I just purchased a used unit on eBay and I'll hope this fixes things. They have a 30 day money back guarantee, so if it doesn't work, I'll send it back and try something else. Dealer wanted $2300! So, that isn't even an option. I was even looking for an after market unit that would have CarPlay and the latest bells and whistles, yet, still work with the Audi controls and keep everything cosmetically in-tact, but, there really aren't too many other options out there...

If you need I have a Map 8R0060884EM NAR 6.16.2 ( not last map but...) and Firmware for High + 0942 and activator for map
I hope you know that you need to remove the component protection in that unit you are purchasing on ebay
