I couldn't agree more. So frustrating that I am selling my F60DAB soon I think, and going for Android or maybe a simple Alpine unit. Just want GOOD iPod connectivity, GOOD maps, and GOOD bluetooth including audio. All the rest is useless to me, but the main functions are not good enough
-
The maps on my F60DAB are CRRRRRRAAAAPPP! I have gone back to very old firmware to try and fix another issue, does the new firmware (115) do anything with satnav like enable postcode entries?

Thanks. I have 7600 songs on my iPod. Are you saying if I waited for a while after pressing pause but before turning off, it might work? I don't think it will but haven't tried waiting ages. Blooooody annoying!
-
Thanks Spec. Does anyone know if any particular firmware version did NOT have the problem of iPod always starting a new track every time get in the car? i.e not pausing while turned off and resuming from where it was paused when start up again? Bloody annoying that!

Nightmare! Happening over and over again. my phone will work thru stereo for calls, but not BT audio. I get the same error every time shown below. I also notice on the BT screen it shows phone connected but audio icon is greyed out..... https://snag.gy/M8RFjG.jpg https://snag.gy/Ynl5KA.jpg Absolute nightmare, its the MAIN use I have for the unit, BT audio!! I could have got an android HU for £100 instead of £500 on this used unit!! And my main feature doesn't want to work! I also have a feeling this has only happened since I updated the firmware (and BT), silly me. Updates seem t

Can anyone advise on what to select from the list of formatting options (mac) for my USB thumb drive? thanks

Hi all, Spec just referred me to this thread. I have just got a 2014 model F60DAB. It's got old firmware on. I am about to try doing the flash myself after reading this useful thread, thanks to all who contributed. Quick question - just in case it ends up taking me a while, is there a reason why upgrading the firmware will benefit me in some way, or is it just for security or to be "up to date"? I mean, will the unit run better, faster, more reliable, or anything else useful? Once I have done that, I am hoping to find a way to update the maps without going through NaviExtras as their support
-
Thanks very much as always Spec, very useful info

You started by telling me "you are totally wrong mate". Doesn't sound like an answer, and I still don't know what you are referring to. Did you even see my first post, I posted twice. Or were you just responding to the second one?
-
Didn't understand a word of that. What am I wrong about? I am asking questions, not stating facts. If you have answers please go ahead

I have exactly the same problem with the SD card which came in my F60DAB. I installed naviextras tool on my win7 laptop. I pushed SD Card into a dedicated SD card reader slot. Windows file manager can view it fine, but the software says "no device connected". Anyone got any ideas please?
-
Hmm, may have another problem, a big one. Not sure, hoping someone here can advise.... I tried to see about updating the maps. Spoke to the useless support staff at Naviextras. Long story short..I took the SD card out of the stereo (it was in when I bought it second hand) and Naviextras are asking for "license" file in "license" folder. But I don't have that folder. I have attached a screenshot of the files/folders on the card. is it no good? If so, is it possible to get a new one without paying ridiculous money to Naviextras? Also, am I right in thinking the satnav software is iGo Primo?

All sorted, what a beautiful unit the 8000NEX/F60DAB is! I love it to bits! Not sure if you (Spectrax) are still around but if you are, I have a few niggles and questions which I would be really grateful if you could help with...... 1. Mode button - what does this button do? If i touch it once it turns the display off, if I touch and hold it does nothing different.Is that how it should work? is it just a screen mode (on/off) button? 2. I have attached images below. Looks like this is 2014 model. Is there a free/cheap way to update the maps or only via Pioneer? 3. Would it
