Unfortunately no....the only classic ipod compatible with F series are the 5th generation, the older ones dosen't support USB controls. I had to sell mine and bought a new one just because of this. GUGA

If you want to use Igo as your navigation software the best method is this one.. http://www.avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=19346 GUGA

You need to download the zip file decompress it and then rename the image_generic.res to image.res GUGA

Sorry about that guys.....there was a missing root directory in the zip file....Links updated. GUGA

Hi guys, First of all tks for all the replies.... As a lot of people were asking for a different destination icon I created a new one more generic so exeryone can use the theme. Just unzip, rename it to image.red and copy to the apl folder... http://rapidshare.com/files/201984856/Image_generic.zip Sorry but I won't be doing specific icons but I'm including the map image in png format so everyone can do your personalized destination icon. If there's any change in the theme that you guys need and that won't be specific, such as destination icon with a '04 black honda accord,

.res file ia a compressed archive, you need to decompress, edit images and recompress it. Use 7zip to do it.....recrompress as 7zp file and rename it to .res GUGA

Man, Awesome idea!!! The FTP are idea is perfect!!! The only thin is that someone should be responsible to keep it oganized, otherwise in a few months nobody will find anything there!! LOL Uploaded my Theme to it. GUGA

Created two new main menu navigation icons.... GUGA F150.zip

I use Ulead Photoimpact.....but you can use any image editor.... GUGA

Swan, It's not really that easy to do it..You'll need to extract the contents of the image.res and edit all the icons you want. Make sure they are in BMP windows format otherwise the unit won't read them. After changing everything you want just zip it bakt using a software called 7zp (google for it) and compress it as a .7zp file, change the extensio to .res and copy it back to the unit... Here's a them that I did.... http://www.avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=21840 Maybe it's a good start. GUGA

Paq, What images are you trying to change? the unit images or the igo images? GUGA

The image is 746_32K_AV-800_32b.bmp in AV directory. It's preety big so you can resize it with no problem. When I said that I have all the original images, i meant that I have all the images I use to produce the icons...without background and overlays.. If you need them just let me know GUGA

Feel free to use any image in my theme to complete your theme..... If you need I have all the original images that I used.. New theme by GUGA and ImBasketCase?!?!?lol GUGA

I created a new theme replacing not only the main menu images but ipod control/icons, radio icons, and a lot of other stuff... Here's the topic http://www.avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=21840 Feel free to copy and change it! Hope you enjoy. GUGA

Dumb question.... If you want to run igo and you live in the US, why do you need to run the launcher?!?!? Anyway after the launcher menu appears you need to click in what option do you want to run, after that you need to do the menu/key down to chsnge between apps... GUGA

Ceger, I don't have XM here in Brazil, so I can't test it....but probably they are kept in the same image.res file....If you want to take a picture of the unit when the XM is active I can search them for you. The bpdn files looks like text (XML) to position things on the screen, never tried to edit them to see what happens. GUGA

PAq, Are you saving them as Windows format??? if you save as os2 format they won't load.. GUGA

Pictures of the theme updated. Now with a good camera. GUGA

I changed a lot of the porr pioneer's icon..take a look at my topic. http://www.avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=21840 It's all in the image.res in APL folder. You need to unzip it change all you need and zip it back. I use 7zip, just compress as 7zp file. All images should be BMP (windows type not OS2) GUGA

Guys, After a long time trying to get used of those poor quality icons from pioneer I decided to create a complete theme for the functions I most use in the system. I changed the main menu screen, the audio/video screen, ipod controls (music and video), fm display, and a lot of other... Thanks ImBasketCase with the image transparency problem. Feel free to download and change it anyway you like....just download the Image.res, unzip and copy it to your APL directory ******* UPDATE ******* VERSION 2.0 THEMES Civic in destination icon - http://rapidshare.com/files/2306255

I Rip the dvd with dvdshrink in windows then convert using handbrake (mac) 640x480....I'm running a Mac with both OS together.... GUGA

Search for my topics and you'll find it....uploaded it yesterday. GUGA

Guys, I had a problem in a 500bt.....after installing and removing the unit 10 times, checking all the grouding, etc..... I found out that sometimes, depending on your car, you need to use a ground loop isolator to fix all the buzzing. This happens because of impedance difference between the grounds of the car. It costs US$ 12,00, can be bought in any radioshack and it's pretty simple to install. Not sure if this will fix the issue but it worth a try. GUGA

Exactly the same problem I had.... I bought a 120gb so I can rip all my dvds and convert them to ipod format....now I have almost 20gb of music + 50gb of video. 1hr video = 600mb. The quality is awesome and I don't have to carry my dvds... GUGA

Hierog, The problem is not with the software version of the ipod but with the generation of it. The older generation don't support USB Controls thus they're not compatible with AVIC. Here's the link of the compatibility chart. http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/ephox ... 0Chart.pdf GUGA
