  1. I'm not sure if this will work for the F series, but it's the only double din trim kit I've found on Pioneers site. http://www.pioneerusa.com/PUSA/Products ... /ADT-VA133
  2. If you set them to the bottom there is no overlap. If for some reason you like them at the top I would disable the signboards. I will try to fix it but there is really no other place to put them if you want them at the top. I am running out of screen real estate. I will think of something else to do. Maybe I can make it so the signboards are disabled when navigating when the lane info is chosen to be at the top. Seems like a lame solution though so I will think about it. I must have completely overlooked that option in the settings. I'll move them to the bottom and see if they'r
  3. Diaftia, Great work on the mods. I installed them yesterday and tested them out for a little while today. I noticed an overlap with the lane guidance and highway signs. Is this in the navigatemap_800_480? If so I can just change the X coordinates. Sorry it's a little blurry, I was driving.
  4. LOL! I noticed the same thing. Some lines said "Singpost" and others said "Signpost". I didn't know what would happen if I corrected the mis-spelling, so I left it alone. I'm still adding my mods post 3.0, so I don't want to throw any wrenches in there at the moment. But I'll try fixing it once everything's stable.
  5. There's not really anything you can do to make it ring. It' has something to do with the head unit and your phone. I used to have a Moto Krzr K1 and it would ring/transmit phones ringtone/notify of SMS. Now I have a Windows Mobile powered Samsung Omnia and it doesn't do any of the above. I know the phone supports it as it works with other bluetooth devices, but the headunit doesn't play nice with other Windows CE devices. I know there used to be a thread around here 4-6 months ago discussing this very topic. Let me see... Here you go: viewtopic.php?f=33&t=17453
  6. Simmo, I'm not sure what "thick black wire" you're referring to but the green parking brake wire should be grounded. That means screwed to a large metal surface such as your car chassis (preferably an unpainted part of your chassis).
  7. I just wanted to thank the OP for all his work. My headunit started this black screen problem a couple of days ago and this thread helped me restore it. I had to reload windows CE a couple of times and cut power to the headunit, but I was finally able to get back into windows to format and restore my flash disk. Thanks.
  8. You can always use the "Show" command and then pick your song. "Show album" whatever. "Show artist" whatever. Then you touch the song you want.
  9. I'm afraid that's not an option. VR can only be used to play by artist/album/genre/playlist. I have tried saying "Play song" whatever, but it doesn't do anything. I can only assume it's because it would take forever to catalog individual songs as opposed to artist/album/genre.
  10. Here you go... http://avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17317 It's three pages long. Happy reading.
  11. Bluetooth call quality is really subjective. It depends on: * Quality of bluetooth connection between phone and headunit. * Environtment (how noisy your cars cabin is). * Mic placement. People have told me I sound a little distant but I am clear and understandable. I can hear the people on the other end clearly as well.
  12. This is a known issue with the F series. There is a lengthy thread discussing this very issue. You can search for it. The short answer is that its random across the ipod generations. Some people say it works perfectly, others have blurry album art on the F when it's perfectly clear on their ipods (myself included).
  13. I know for a fact that a USB optical mouse does NOT work. No power to the mouse. I haven't tried a keyboard or a ball mouse though.
  14. I don't remember exactly what I changed. But you can compare from the screenshots below.
  15. Yettavr6/Stoca, I'm also using MediaMonkey Gold to manage my music and transfer them to my ipod. But my album art DOES show up on the ipod and my F700. I am saving the album art into the music file. Not into an album art folder. MediaMonkey asks you this question by default when you autotag from web. All of my music is in mp3 format. I have a 5th Gen Video Ipod. I have noticed that if any music is moved/renamed on your computer, MediaMonkey does not auto-update its location in its database. So it loses the album art until I do a File-->"Add/Rescan Tracks to
  16. Holy Sh**!!! I thought this day would never come. I thought this fabled second update was an urban legend. Wow is it faster to boot up. Time to ipod - ~30 seconds (actually longer than before. Used to take 15-20 seconds) NAV to operational - ~30 seconds (big improvement) Bluetooth Connection - ~1:35 (hasn't changed much) Menu/button response is immediate. Now to re-create my mods...
  17. You may want to look into buying the dash kit and wire harness yourself and then taking it to a shop to have it installed. It will probably be cheaper that way. And you could always take how22 up on his offer and have him do the install.
  18. Wow! They have never charged me that much to install a headunit. It was usually $80-$120. Granted, I have never had them install a NAV headunit, but it's not that much extra work. You may want to call back and talk to someone else, those prices are really inflated. Dash Kit - OK Harness - Should be $30 tops Antenna Adaptor - OK Radio - This is just a ridiculous price. Bluetooth - There's nothing to install Navigation - I dont know what fair market value is for this XM Tuner - seems fair (depending on where they have to mount it). There are other shops in the area...
  19. Orangeman, I live in Tampa, near USF. I installed my F Series myself, but I have used Divine Sounds (Dale Mabry and Waters Ave.) to do the audio for my last two cars. They will do the bypass if you ask them. Divine Sounds (813) 886-3100 8338 N Dale Mabry Highway Tampa, FL 33614

  21. Mitsubishi Eclipse The first one I found on MP3car.com And the second is one I slightly modified for my liking. The image is just high enough that it's not blocked by the startup box.
  22. Boris, could you point out/post the changes you made to your navigatemap_800_480.ui file. I like to fully understand what changes people have made to their files before I implement those changes to mine. Looking through the navigatemap_800_480.ui in your zip file, I can see several comments added but I'm not sure I understand what each does. Thanks
  23. Very cool mod. It makes it so much easier to see the POI's around your current location.
  24. Just did this on my F700, very noticeable speed increase in the menu's. Thanks OP. I love this forum...
