tedious

a code. This is called 'Development Mode'. When it asks you for the code,
enter: 20110827 and then accept. It won't do anything. They have to press

ANOTHER TYPE OF UNLOCKING

Step 0 – Confirm software version. In order to enable video playback in


movement, first it is necessary to have the software version of the mylink No. 24.5

a) To know which version you have, go to the main menu of mylink and select settings.

b) Within settings on page 2, press the menu 'system version'
The attached file02.png is no longer available.
c) There you will see the version number. In my case, it was an earlier version than 24.5 and it remained
updated when the entire process was completed
The attached03.png is no longer available
d) In case your version is the same or higher (you can skip to step no. 5)

Step 1 - Download files and prepare two USB drives.


First of all, and to avoid confusion, have two formatted USB drives ready in system.
FAT32 (essential) since if they are in ntfs (the default format used by windows) it will not be
read by the mylink. They will copy the original files from the Spin onto a pendrive to keep them for
any need; we will call it 'backup' pendrive and it will be used in step 3. In the other
they will place the downloaded files (among them the update) in the root directory of the pen drive;
we will call this pendrive "update" and it will be used in step 4.

a. Download the compressed files placed at the following link:


The input does not contain any translatable text.

b. The link contains the folder '24.5-42341011' (necessary for updating) and the folder 'Video'
Mov" (necessary to unlock video in motion).

c. Unzip both downloaded files. Then copy the folder "24.5-42341011" and "Video
"Mov" in the root of the "update" pendrive. Remember that both pendrives have to be
formatted in FAT32 system (it is recommended that it is not greater than 16GB in capacity). No
It doesn't matter where the folders are copied, the system will automatically read when you insert the
pendrive with the update. (do not insert the pendrive yet, only in step 4)

Step 2 - Enter the secret DEVELOPER menu and access the Windows operating system
CE.

a. With the car running (to prevent the mylink1 from automatically turning off after 10
minutes of inactivity) and with the mylink1 on the home screen, insert the pendrive
"backup" and click about 11 times (it could be a few more) in the upper left corner of
main menu (For this step, I recommend using a pencil or pen to press on the
screen since the finger can be imprecise when selecting very small elements on
the screen).

b. A message will automatically appear asking to enter a code. Enter the code:
20110827 and then accept (no. 1). Next the system will not give any indication, and then
press the back arrow (no. 2).

factory applications of mylink1). For this, select the file (it must remain
highlighted), and then in the top toolbar, they click EDIT, and in the dropdown menu
select COPY.

e. Exit explorer mode of Windows CE. To do this, you need to turn off the engine, remove the
ignition keys and open and close the car door. Then wait 30 seconds and wait for.
the courtesy light on the ceiling goes off. Open the door again, close it, turn on the car.
There, you completely exit explorer mode.

Step 4 - System update to version number 24.5
