  1. There was some speculation of the OS being case-sensitive a while back, but AFAIK it's never been confirmed, although a few months ago I cae across a guy whotried to change the data.zip and it wouldn't load because it was not written EXACTLY how it was supposed to be.

     

    OP, try a USB drive.

  2. Again, depending on price of update, if they decide to go that route we could all chip-in and buy one then share it. Like it was done with the service manual.

     

    If this is a dramatic improvement update, I'll throw down, otherwise my 90 will be for sale come June (9140 release). Maybe what we need is a GB list of those who will chip in to get one update on the forum. The more people, the less $$ per person.

  3. I have a friend who just bought the new Genesis with the navigation package. He asked me to bypass it for him so he doesn't have to put it in park to watch a movie. I'm not too keen on factory nav's so my question is, is it possible to do, and what's involved?

     

    I'm guessing it gets a signal from the transmission to allow the funtions to work when the vehicle is in Park, so it'd be safe to say that wire will be at the radio harness, but my only concern is if it uses a CAN system to send that data.

     

    Again, I can be completely wrong, I'm only guessing, but I searched and coudn't find any info on it, so maybe other installers here have more experience with this kind of thing.. Thanks in advance.

  4. Does it matter that it's $640? It's $60 more than the 900, but it also comes with the iPod cable which is about $50, so really for $10 more you're getting a better warranty and higher volt preouts. Hell, I'd do that in a heartbeat.

  5. I saw this wasn't answered----Is there anyway to change the background on your CD,FM,IPOD , not just the start up splash screen?

     

    It actually has been answered lol.

     

    Techniclly yes it can....but it requires hacking. And now it's a toss up because some members do not have the bckground file while others do.

  6. CatchMe, whatta think?

     

    He really couldnt've searched for this with good results because a)he didn't know the terminology for what he's looking for and b)it's not a widely discussed question either. I only read the FAQ once so I really don't remember what's on there, so if this is in there, shame on OP....but I digress. I'll be polite and Dumpy, it's not a cop-out :wink:

     

    OP, what you're referring to is called Vehicle Dynamics, that function is not available on the F Series. AFAIK it's on the Z Series and possibly the N/D series'.

  7. Yes, but catching it at the white/green wire under the dash behind the kick panel is much easier than having to run a wire through the firewall. Why would you when the same signal is available inside the car? [My info came from the factory wiring diagrams and has been verified on three cars, two of them mine.]

     

    If I had the info that you did, I would go for the white/green wire. I was only posting what info I had available.

  8. If that's how you feel, then go for it. Although I can't agree with you, since your question was answered twice in this thread. But instead of disregarding the few that told you to search and appreciate the one who did answer your question, you stereotyped the whole forum. Take care.
