Default Start Screen Image

Hello -

Joined the forums about a month ago - today is my one month-iversary of owning a 2015 GS F-Sport. (black/black)

I finally changed the startup screen away from the default mpeg showing the dealership info. However, I would like to load a custom image.

I thought from reading the manual that I could simply plug in my iPhone and the image library would populate but no-go.

Do I need to transfer images to an SD card in a camera and connect the camera through USB?

Thanks,

formatted Fat32 (NTFS will not work)

.jpg format(s)

startup images have to go into a folder named "StartupImage"

display off images have to go into a folder named "DisplayOffImage"

you can upload up to 3 images per folder and rotate between 4 images uploaded (3 personal, 1 factory default)
Also make sure:
  • The word Image is capitalized
  • No special characters in file name, i.e. start-up_image.jpg or startup.image.jpg
  • Using alphanumeric characters, files can be named whatever, i.e. FLogo1280.jpg
  • The folders are in the root directory of the drive, i.e. when you open the drive the folders appear in the initial list
  • If you're using a mac, empty Trash before ejecting drive
  • If using a mac and Trash didn't work:
    • close all Finder windows
    • open Terminal
    • type
      Code:
      cd /Volumes/name_of_your_drive
      dot_clean .
    • close Terminal
    • open Disk Utility
    • right click your drive and select "eject"
