Questions about z110 map display and ipod
chris17house replied to chris17house's topic in Problems/Troubleshooting
1. Thats not convenient haha! 2. If I zoom out, the road disappears! The d3's maps worked so much better. blah -
Two questions if I may: 1)With my old D3, there as a mic-in plug on the front of the unit which allowed me to plug a male-to-male audio cord into it and my ipod or any other audio device, and play the music through a/v 1 or a/v2. Having a difficult time figuring out how to do this with the z110, if even possible. 2) Map Question: I have to have the map all the way zoomed in to view a lot of the roads around my home, however the names of the roads are written so far off of the screen that I have to pan over just to see which road is coming up. Is there a setting I am missing? Didn't hav

So I'm a little hesitant to post this because I'm sure a lot of people have figured this out but... No need to buy an OEM $50 ipod cable. Buy a $2.99 male-to-male audio cable at the store, and use your stock white ipod charging cable. -Plug the male-to-male audio cable into your ipod and then into the pioneer usb/audio cable. -Connect the ipod charging/syncing cable to the ipod, and then to the pioneer usb port. Full audio/video/charging. Only tested on my 2g ipod touch. Hope this helps one person save a couple bucks.

True it could take a dump. The returns are anything from customer returns (anything opened and returned, even after a day), to fixed by pioneer because of a problem. It has a manufacturers warranty if need be, its only 90 days. I bought my D3 on ebay 3 years ago and have had no problems (knock on wood). This is honestly the only bad transaction in 400 buys/sells. I do really appreciate everyone's help and support.

I am just trying to keep my costs down. I figure I can get $400 for my D3, didn't want to spend more than $250ish on top of my sale of the D3. And I can use the torrent from here to upgrade to the 120. I'll have to read up on that and see if people have been having problems or if the kinks have been worked out. Still you're right, for $800 for the 120, thats a pretty great deal.

Yea, I never got a straight answer as to why the cables didnt come with it. He said in one email it was never installed, then in another email he said he had installed it. He finally agreed to take it back after I opened a case. Im going to document the condition of the unit before I ship it back tho just to cover myself. I ended up buying a refurb from a big seller instead. was only $658 plus $7 shipping and it comes with all accessories. So Ill have a new toy to play with soon

Think just a broken lcd or all kinds of other problems? Appreciate your response. The seller has been pretty nice so far.

I just received my z110bt from ebay and when I turn it on, I get a white screen with a few black boxes and multi-colored lines, then it goes to a greyish blue screen with white patches and won't boot any further. The buttons light up, however they don't respond. Any idea what causes this problem? I wanted to work with the seller in getting it fixed, but if its a big deal (like i believe) then im shipping it back.

Would this mic be a suitable replacement for the factory z110bt microphone? Do I have to worry about plug length or shape? http://cgi.ebay.com/Garmin-GPS-External-Microphone-Bluetooth-GPS-Navigation-/200437454794?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2eab00d7ca

No angular velocity or voltage meter on x series?
chris17house replied to chris17house's topic in General
I remember there being an additional unit for the D3 that gave substantially more vehicle dynamics. Is there a similar unit for the z or x series to add on to gain vehicle dynamics? -
On my D3, you have multiple vehicle dynamic options to view such as: angular velocity, slope, compass, voltage, side acceleration, ect. Are there no options for this on the x920bt or z series?
-
Can the z110bt be bypassed without the a/v cables which has the mute wire?
-
Yea not sure why, think he upgraded to the z120 and it didnt come with the cables. But I got the hu for $515 with the manuals and original box so im sure its legit. Youre about on point with the prices for cables. I ebayed the power cord ($22) and antenna ($21.90). The ipod cord is $15, and the usb cable is $62, mic $36.50, A/V cables are $65. Just looking for lower prices. Never know

Ok I understand the pandora situation now. I do still need the above parts because the one I bought on ebay did not come with them
