Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows how to have music play wirelessly from your iPhone to the F90BT synced up via bluetooth? Is this possible? I can make / receive calls / listen to voicemails. However I was wondering if I could listen to music the same way. Thanks for your time guys.

how do I boot in test mode? Do I need to load a file into a usb drive? Is it the same way as doing an update?

I've tried hitting the reset button in front with a ballpoint pen numerous times. Is there a hard reset button somewhere?

So I've had my f90bt ever since the release date, all of the updates are current. However, a few days ago upon boot up the back up camera got stuck in view mode while I was driving. When I put the car in reverse, they back up camera went away and the menu appeared. (completely opposite of what is supposed to happen). I've rebooted many times with no luck. So a couple days later I get in my car and the f90bt begins to boot up but then completely powers down. It has been doing this for the last 24 hours. I turn on the car and the splash screen is only up for about 10 seconds before the

The place where I bought my f90bt just called me and told me that the update will be released next Tuesday and it will eliminate the slow boot up time. I cant wait!

Same here, ONLY when I am on the ipod screen for some reason... Strange.

No kidding, I cant wait to download the update when I get home 2nite. Maybe I can finally use the VR catalog problem free.

F-series model: f90bt Phone make/model: iphone Ease of connection: Connects in about 1 minute. Always connects also which is nice. Phone book transfer: Very easy, pressed one button and all my contacts transfered in about 5 min. It stores them so I only had to do this once. Sound quality: I think its perfect. The people on the other line say the same thing, they cant even tell that I'm on a speaker phone. I've even been able to use it with the windows down going at a pretty reasonable speed. Comments: Overall I think the bluetooth works really well and is a pretty cool feature. Sor

This is an annoying issue to me as well. Those empty boxes eat up a lot of screen real estate, and look pretty stupid when not navigating. Another thing that can also go away is the "Multi-info Window" at the lower left (distance to go, arrival time, etc.). When not navigating, these all show zeros, so they're just taking up space. I realize it can be turned off by turning "Full Screen Cockpit" on, but then it's ALWAYS off... -Eric Agree 100%. I HATE that. It has to be so easy to write code to tweak something like that. "If destination plotted, turn boxes on". "If destination plotted

Tell that to the people who installed my unit! I literally argued with them for 30 minutes about how the mute wire came disconnected and they wouldn't believe me (the 15mph video lockout I mentioned earlier). They finally decided to check it out again and what do ya know, the mute wire wasn't connected. Bypass works now

maybe its her last day on the job lol

works flawlessly for my f90bt. Be careful though, the mute wire pops out easily! Happened to me and the video starting shutting off at 15mph. Works perfect now!

From my experience, I've had to leave VR catalog on all the time. It does not retain the info if you do it once and turn it off (leaving the ipod plugged in all the time). It's getting faster though. It now only takes about 5 minutes to fully load every time I turn on my car.

x2! I am very happy with my f90bt and have no regrets buying it. I was very mad when I ordered one, but when I actually got it installed and thought the thing was pretty cool. Yes they do need to fix the voice recognition and overall lag of the unit, but those are my only complaints. Overall, its an 8 out of 10 for me.

it would be perfect but wouldnt make sense....how would u expect it to kno the new awrtists u put on if the deck didnt satalogue them. an ideal method for it would be to have it scan ur ipod in like 5 seconds to chec for any new material and if it finds something, THEN catalogue. but if theres nothing new why hafta memorize everything again, its just a waste of precious time u can use saying "play artist whitney houston" (and no i dont listen to whitney houston, full metalhead right here \m/ >.< \m/ ) Yeah true, didn't think about just checking for new music. I guess I dont up

It would be perfect if you only had to run VR Catalog once. However, I let it scan once, and then turn it off, the voice activation forgets everything. For now, I think you have to leave VR Catalog on if you want control of ipod voice controls. Hopefully a firmware update fixes this issue.

Yeah I just got mine also, noticed that and thought wtf did they do that for?! They could have easily put it on the back or something. You cant really tell when its on unless you are standing like a foot away from it. Maybe cuz I got black frame its less obvious or something.

I'm sticking with the F90. This was a tough decision, but after playing around with some of the features, and watching numerous video comparisons, I chose 2 keep my f90bt. I guess you could say "historically" I've always favored Pioneer over Kenwood. I've had both decks in my car before and always leaned towards Pioneer units. I give the f90bt an 8 out of 10. As soon as they get the slowness lag issue and the VR catalog fixed (voice command sucks), it will be the perfect unit.

perhaps handbrake? thats what I use for converting.

I can also confirm that saying the name does not work, I tried multiple times. Saying the number works though. The voice command really sucks for everything. Hopefully I firmware fix will help (keeps fingers crossed).

Just got my f90bt installed yesterday. I can confirm that ipod classic (80gb) does play video just fine.

voice recognition worked for me....once... "play artist pennywise" was the only time it worked. It hasn't worked ever since. Even when I tried saying pennywise again. I hope they get this VR Catalog thing fixed so we can take advantage of what the F series is supposed to be all about.

So I recently got my f90bt installed. I haven't been playing with it that long. So far I have only two complaints. 1. VR Catalog: This thing takes way too damn long. I have an 80gb ipod classic and it takes about 10 min before the "ipod may have limited connectivity at this time" screen goes off. And when it finally goes off, the voice control doesn't even work. I tried saying "play artist, metallica, pennywise, led zeppelin, etc, etc. None of them worked. I really hope the VR catalog gets fixed. When I turn it off, the unit as a whole is so much faster. 2. My second complai

Hey guys, I know this question has been asked on here so I apologize in advance. I recently got the f90bt installed and my local stereo shop offered to bypass. They bypassed, however, the video cuts off when the car goes over 15 mph. Is this because they grounded the parking brake but forgot to relocate the mute wire to the correct pin? If anyone can help me out I would appreciate it. Thanks.
