I think if you hit the setup button and keep saying English, that it will ask you if you want to switch your language. No menus to go through

Now I'll actually be helpful - from jeep.com

"Language Selection
To change the language that the UConnect™ system is using,
• Press the "Phone" button to begin.
• After the “Ready” prompt and the following beep, say the name of the language you wish to switch to (English, Espanol, or Francais, if so equipped).
• Continue to follow the system prompts to complete language selection. After selecting one of the languages, all prompts and voice commands will be in that language."

Do you have the MyGig or one of the other radios? The reason I ask, is because my mom had a similar problem where it would switch to French when a phone call came in. I think it might have something to with the particular phone you have paired, because when I paired my phone with my mom's system, the problem never happened.

oh good point i did just recently get a new phone..and also paired a new jawbone bluetooth headset also, that really helps when the tops are off and i can actually hear a phone call coming in...

the other issue is i installed a daystar replacement tray on top, and of course put my phone in that tray, that's what scrambled my compass settings...ugh...

but now what i have still lost is the ability to load pics into the hd? i can load music from either a cd or usb, but the "my pics" button is now "grayed-out" and no longer an option...strange, very strange....
