  1. I almost did, but played around with some of the newer double DIN's and didn't see anything that really made me want to jump over. Plus i haven't finished hacking the rom of the n1, i'm determined to remove that warning in code one day. then i'll buy a new unit ! :0

  2. I'm thinking of upgrading my N1 to a Z since the ribbon cable failed and i'm a bit tired of fixing stuff with it.

     

    Some of the rear plugs look the same from the pics i saw, which means nothing, so does anyone have info on whether or not its pin compatible, same, mostly or not at all ?

    No there is no way for it to listen to you without pressing some sort of button. If I'm not mistaken there is no vehicle or phone or anything that will listen to your conversation 24/7 and try to figure out what you are talking about all the time listening for words in the hopes it hears something.

    some sony ericsson phones have this feature, P800,p900 etc spring to mind, you can set it up in two ways either by a 'magic word' you set that has to be said first or just regular voice reg.

    you just teach it to listen for a word or sound and then it wants a voice contact.

    The same thing happens to the unit with the 50mp version also. Unfortunately you can't roll back to 40 either. Some sort of firmware upgrade... :shock:[/quote]

    yes you can, check the other threads on bad dvds ,i posted the procedure
  5. forget the xbox its not going to work, anything the xbox can do with the drive a PC can so the software would exist on the pc too, the passwords on the xbox are sniffable and can be regenerated.

    swap the powered up drives ith a pc, use a modded ide cable to split power.
  6. so i upgraded the nav system to the latest software, and i'm 90% sure that it was working 100% but yesterday i noticed that it no longer allows "address search" or freeway search" or "phone number search" the address book still works, as does using the map function by touch screen and setting the new route.

    the parking brake switches on and off, as the address book switches on and off and the diagnostic screen says it.

    i used DVD+R DL media , i noted a few people said they had issues, yet the unit can still find routes.

    i guess to downgrade you've got to remove the flash chips and reflash it manually.

    any ideas ? (beyond try DVD-R DL which i can't find locally anywhere)
  7. yeah the xbox has the serial in the eeprom.

    SATA is still basically ATA the transmission is the main difference.

    If i had a Z1 i'd open up the Z1 , boot it up next to a PC and swap the cable after its booted and unlocked the drive.
  8. i wondered if the DVD+R or just any DVD R discs cause the massive slowdown at boot ( i upgraded to the 60MT) and where it'd clear the pioneer logo in 10 seconds, it can take upto 60 seconds now (usually less) or is that just a function of the new software
  9. i've just been poking around my AVIC N1s code, it looks like it uses an NEC 78K derivative, i just did a partial disassembly and it looks like the 78K works..

    the PRG files are the code.


    i saw a pic of a circuit board on here, but the image isn't clear enough to read the cpus model number.


    looks like the gps unit spits out standard NMEA strings i wonder if you could hook into them for other things
  10. [quote name="ohlarikd"]I don't think this PIM color issue is going to be easy to fix.

    In a PIM file, white is 39 67. In PIM Manager, white is naturally assumed to be FF FF.

    hope you don't me butting in, i've just found this forum and only read a couple of messages, so i might be repeating stuff already known, but white is not 3967, you're looking at it in the wrong format.
    example

    take the 3967 in hex 0xF7F, well its obvious the ordering (probably just little endian) is in the wrong order (and from the screen shots i've seen people post with the odd coloured greyscales, it would match) , its really 0x7FF which is a normally bit white RGB.

    so if you treated the 0xF7F as RGB at 555 or 556 it'd appear strangely.

    seems like its more 443 or something, making a test image should be easy enough

    also i noticed you talking about translucency problems, well its really ARGB or some combination thereof, and you're building the RGB triplets in the wrong order, or you're using the wrong endian, you'd end up writing into the alpha values, i dont know if its a single mask bit for on off transparent alpha or a few bits for translucent alpha. (this is easily check my making an image with 0xF7F + 0x10 * level of translucency or such., so a band of 0xF8F 0xF9F 0xFAF etc, this should should either on off transparency or blended translucency



    again sorry if this is all old news, or i missed something else.

    cheers,
    charlie
