Hey Joe, Excellent PDF electrical diagram. If I knew what all that meant I'd just go out and do this. Any chance you can post the parts list. I see on the diagram: SPD10s30 x2 Diode R1 resistor 10.0 Ohm 10.0 w R2, R3 (same size resistor) 1000.0 Ohn .25w Q1 2N4401 Q2 2N4403 C1 capacitor 10uF 25v C2 capacitor 100uF 25v Battery x10 500mA/hr NiCd

I get a whole day between recharges

Searching may have helped...but only if you used street number or house number. Start here, 2nd post: http://www.avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=19864 Then go here to make it easier, but it is a whole bunch of mods at once. If you only want the house number left/right, you will need to use the info in the first thread and the FAQ to figure out how to get into test mode, edit the file on your computer, then reload it onto the AVIC. http://www.avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=20836

Forums should linked to Paypal and the MOD has the ability to fine members $0.25 for posting in the wrong forum, $0.50 for asking questions that have been answered and are still on the 1st page of posts, and $1.00 for asking a question answered in the faq.

Copy the files for testmode into the root folder of the SD.

I use 3d mode and my tilt and zoom work fine. Tap on screen and the giant white arows pop-up. I also zoom from the volume knob. Check the Navi settings and make sure Smart zoom is where it neds to be. I think off.

You mean pushing IN on the volume knob?

Maybe, 1. Borrow or buy a new SD (I'm using Kingston 4GB SDHC) and retry 2. Post your city and hope someone on the board can meet up with you. 3. Enable Remote Desktop on WinCE and use the USB WiFi so an advanced user can review your steps (no- this is not possible for several reasons both hardware and software related- but would be really cool.)

That would be fine if it wasn't nonsense, the car has a single ground point, no matter what part of the car you connect those 2 lines to, they're connected to the same ground, this is why you have hoards of us telling you that it doesn't matter. Yes a device could tell if you used the same ground, but the point is, all grounds in the car are the same ground! There's no physical way to wire them to seperate grounds, more then enough people here have confirmed that tying the two lines together should and will work fine. Diane For this situation it is clearly bunk. However, there

As far as DATA.zip, map versions, and ft/miles - I have no idea. It may be easy enough to search the forum for those topics and find out what file needs to be changed and then compare the original file to the modded file. Just trying to make it easy. I used 4-5 threads, a few downloads, and several seaches to get this running. I did no programming or editing- the heroes are Boris, Keeper, Maverick, and all the folks who know what they are doing. If I knew more, I'd help. But I'm a cut and paste kind of guy...

Mine are soldered together and I have no issues. YMMV.

I have no clue. I have not tried the leet launcher (like the avic software enough not to mess around more than basic mods). The SYS.TXT is from MikeGEdge's post.

Not any more.... Started a new thread on 3D Buildings as a how to with files linked. Sys.txt and the data.zip are there as well.

Just an evolution of an earlier post. This board is incredible as far as content, confusing as far as how to access and use the content, and hostile as far as newby support goes. This thread is an easy how to for modding an AVIC F500, F700, F900, or F90 to include 3D buildings (USA) and the following DATA.zip mods: *Quick Launch Nav Menu while not Navigating. *Moved/Cleaned Up Boxes while navigating *Stop Nav Button added to compass *Mute Nav Button *Linear Compass (new style - keeper22's) *Small tweaks throughout for looks *MPH and elevation when not Navigating *Current

Pull the fuse? I'm thinking $600 at Fry's, but less on the net. Minimum $450. Yup, you're buying a new unit.

Try the update from pioneer and see if this fixes it. Otherwise you'll need to get a copy of the couple 100 MB of files to restore your AVIC. Let's hope the 2.0 update fixes it.

From your attached file: ; GPS Status ; ; It appears you parsed ( out the GPS Status on the left. Also, I think the y=270 value for the mute button (not posted above) would make the GPS icon at y=283 (posted above) sit behind and maybe slightly below the mute voice/address select button. If I'm wrong, I'll learn something useful, and if I'm right- you posted the older navigatemap_800_400.ui file. Steve

I've got Mav's DATA.ZIP with PeterParker's moved button. Everything works fine. I still have not moved the SAT icon out from behind the Address/Mute icon. X will be >14, but it seems like trial and error to get it not to be kissing the other button and not be in the middle of the map. Just too lazy.

I get "New Mail Message" when a text comes in, but the TM does not get sent to the 700. Using an old RAZR with ATT

Mine works fine. Ipod Gen 6 Classic 80GB AVIC F700 Using the Apple or Pioneer wires (Red,Yel,Wht) with USB and Ipod connector

Am I missing something? I get Album art in Ipod mode as a postage stamp, and if I tap it it takes up half the screen. I also get Album art in the bottom right corner of the map screen while driving.

Still not good enough. Either a full video showing every step, or you must go to everyone's house to help perform the bypass for them.

I looked for WinCE software that works like the iPhone Dynolicous or the G-tech from Escort and did not see any. Anybody have any idea if there is a way to tap into the devices potential to run 0-60 tests, 1/4 mi runs, etc? Also- is there any way to get it to store max speed, avg speed like the Nuvi does? I love the Nuvi info screen.
