I had the same issue, ONLY on the IPOD source, then eventually no video at all. I pulled the connector that plugs into the IPOD apart, and 3 pins were broken! I found very poor solder joints! I bet most of you guys problems can be fixed with a new IPOD cable, it fixed mine.

Awesome mod guys, the best out there! Maybe its late, and I'm blind....lol I've been reading for hours and cant't find what I'm looking for. When in rout, at the top of the map there is what looks like a small thin progress bar with what looks like a green dot progress indicator. How do I get rid of this? Again, awesome work!!!!!

Yup....set it at 125, and cut it below that on the epic. I would'nt think u'd want to cut it higher than 125?

pp.s. Am i to assume the ones I have now are from April 10th, 2009, or just Feb, 2009?

Look at bright side of the situation: at least, you have newer maps in your AVIC ... So what was the release date of the stock 3.01 maps?

I figured it out. When I bought upgraded maps for my PNA, they must be Tele Atlas maps, I just checked my PNA, and AVIC and they both say Tele Atlas 2009.02 (090410). I assumed they were upgraded Navteq maps on the PNA Because thats what was on there.....weird!

OK....I have it up n running, I have all my navteq maps loaded, and they work, and I have verified that its the navteq folder I have loaded, but in the pioneer about screen, under maps they all say tele atlas 2009.02??????????????? I also replaced the building folder with the navteq one.....The buildings look the same for St. Louis as the Tele Atlas did, but alot more buildings show up on my PNA? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

So far I didn't came over the Navteq premium POI's, only TeleAtlas or NNG. It would be interesting to compare, since I'm pretty unhappy with the TeleAtlas POI precision... Backup completely your AVIC, because you need to make room for the Navteq maps... Yup...I don't do anything without a backup....so I replace ta map folder, with Navteq map folder., and replace the stock ezrider, with this new hacked one.....is that it?

From what I have read, Navteq maps are somewhat smaller, but still have better mapping data (may be better compressed or something) that TeleAtlas... I'll give them a try! The ones I have I just purchased last week for amigo. So All I have to do is Transfer my Navteq map folder over to the avic, and replace the stock ezrider with this new hacked ezrider? Am I missing anything?

My PNA with navteq maps have highway signs, and lane guidence, so u wont lose them. I'm not sure I'm going to use the navteq maps though......the files are smaller, which to me means (duh) less information! I checked, and my navteq poi files are the same size, or bigger than the teleatlas files. Also, all my navteq .3dl files are almost all exactlly the same size as the teleatlas files. What do u guys think? wats a PNA? PNA = Personal Navigation Assistant (Garmin, TomTom, Magellin ect)

Yes, you can, even if it's not recommended, because the TeleAtlas POI's are way better then the Navteq's. @tommyis3:check your PM's. so can i put the navteq 2009q1 maps and use the teleatlas POI's instead? where can i get the latest teleatlas POI's? will i loose my hwy signs with the navteq maps?

I compared my navteq maps to the 3.01 teleatlas maps, and the navteq maps are all about 15-20 percent smaller.......so is there really anything to gain? It seems as though the new navteq maps I have are smaller?

I checked, and there is both .3dc, and .3dl files with my navteq maps.

Yup my PNA has 3d building/landmark files. I'll have to try this. Right on guys!
