Got anything like this for a Civic Si? I'm looking for something clean like this.

It is also just as possible that with the upgrade AVIC will brew coffee for you... Thanks for the intelligent contribution. Fact is... if Pioneer offered the bug fixes for free like they should... people would be less inclined to circumvent the upgrade procedure.

Well usually to enter testmode you have to have the sd card in before you boot up the unit. With that said we would have to have testmode on the update card in order to do that which doesnt seem possible. You can eject the SD card and it is seen as a mass storage device. What he said is quite possible...

This issue is with the RCA preouts for the iPod. They are faulty and need to be replaced.

Guys.... this is a problem with the RCA Preouts going bad. I have confirmed this with Al-Eds as their local owner said he went round and round with this issue and once he replaced the deck... all was well. I suggest you call Pioneer and get them to issue a RMA. In fact... I'm on the hold waiting to speak to someone right now.

Mine works with my F90BT... but I don't use the Phonebook on the deck mostly because its terrible.

More like AT&T hasn't enabled the features. Besides... why would Pioneer care about MMS and tethering?

Like I said again... it's pretty sweet we have to pay more for them to fix their bugs. They should offer a separate download for the bug fixes.

Yeah, it's not going to happen. It's nice to know that I have to pay more for bugs that Pioneer should have fixed prior to shipment. I paid $900 for my F90BT when it came out and its everything but "Premier" equipment. On a side note... The iPod preouts have gone to shit and the guy at Al-Eds told me he found this issue before after I described what happens. He said I would have to send it in to Pioneer for a replacement. I wonder if I should wait to see if the replacement will come with 3.0 or not.

I have not opened mine either. But if your looking for a serial header, don't forget to look for both 9 Pin and 4 Pin serial headers.

Truth of the matter is that Pioneer doesn't know WTF is going on over there. They fail to update their reps with the correct info. I find it very funny they are spending time in test considering the state the unit was launched in. Do they even have a QA dept? From the launch, it sure as hell doesn't. Perhaps they have been drinking the water from where they are located in Long Beach because this shit is sickening.

Locking testmode out wouldn't be too difficult if they did it right (not that I'm going to give Pioneer any ideas) though it seems they have ITT students doing their coding.

Not all developers are made the same though wouldn't you agree. I myself work in the computer/portable devices industry and have some first hand knowledge of embedded OS's. Even in my previous life, I worked on a Digital Picture Frame that had wireless connectivity among other things. That platform ran WinCE as well and it only took 15 seconds to boot. You can even customized an embedded version of WinXP to boot relativity quick. This is what they use for electronic kiosks, Point of Sales Systems (Cash Registers), etc...

I agree that Ravage is WAY off base by stating that WinCE is slow in general. How they are loading the OS is slow, but there is still room for improvement. Its not like there is a min 60 sec counter for WinCE to boot. Are you guys really that gullible?

Anyone get this error when answering a call? Getting this using both a Nokia 5300 and a Sidekick 3.
