Did anyone succeed in disabling Gracenote with 59.0.441? Instructions are aplenty, but no matter what I try, the system refuses to see the "update" (aka current version) on the USB key, which makes me think that 59.0.441 only allows an actual update to be applied.

I disabled it on my 2017 CX5 59.0.446 NA firmware originally came with v7 Gracenote database.

Can you share the exact procedure? I've been unsuccessful so far, and not for the lack of trying. Putting the v7 db, named as downloaded, to the root of FAT32-formatted USB stick doesn't seem to do the trick.

Hove you tried another usb stick? 32gb or less. I just update it normally and wait till the progress bar half way and wait about 15-30 seconds and restart the car in ACC mode.
