Wow you nailed that great. After searching around I see the d3 holds its price. I have also seen the 920 for pretty damn cheap as well. My advice would be to keep looking for the 920 deal, unless you find the D3 at an unbeatable deal. That is a jump there in models, no 910BT? I am guessing you want a double din no matter what. I have even seen some AVIC-Z models go for under 500$ always when I am broke of course.

One last thing. It really depends if you want the freedom or control of modding or if you just want new. A few things I left out on the 920 is the mini SD, I havent used it, and iphone stuff. I have an ipod touch but cant get the video to work right. That may be because I had to slpice a wire. It plays video fine on my ipod video. And last I have the Samsung Fascinate and I do love how I can bluetooth it to the 920 for calls and music. Same as my ipod touch, it plays music over bluetooth flawless. Just tonight I was thinking about selling the 920, I want a full 7" touch screen. Question is would I go for the Z110 or 120BT units or the old Z1,2,or 3. In that case most likely the 110 or 20.

Hello,

Hmm hard choice or not. I have had the 710BT and now have the 920BT. I will tell you the 920 is pretty nice. But when using the navi I hate the fact that when I am typing a street the unused letters do not disappear like my 710. Also the 920 was hooked up to the auto dimmer but I did not like it when the reverse cam is on its too dark, the 710 I could adjust the brightness even when the headlights were on. Btw on the 710 when you are tpying for navi letters disappear as you type and make it much easier to type. Yes I type sometimes while Im driving! Who doesn't, I am very careful and one huge reason I miss that feature. The fact that it can not be modded really sux, although I do like the UI on the 920, not sure what I would mod on the screen if I could mod it. If I knew all of this before I bought it, it would be a hard choice, either 910bt or x920 hmm Oh one other huge thing, I have had to goto Detroit 3 times last week and 920 kept saying not found when I typed in an address or searched for it in POIs. I wont tell you which one to choose but I think if it was me I would take the 910. Hope this helps.

The music sphere was cool for 5 minutes, havent used since the first time I tried it out.

I have not read all the rules, so if I am out of line here destroy this thread. Ok so I bought a brand new from BestBuy the X920BT. So far I pretty much love it and it does have so cool features. Not being able to mod is'nt that big a deal to because it pretty much has everything needed. Although I am a little spoiled with modding my old F series.

So I am sust going to put it out there. Is there anyone who would want to trade my X920 for their 110 or 120BT? I may consider the Z series. My name is Shane and you can call or text me at 419-708-0816. I hope it is safe leaving my number. This site has been awesomely helpful with all my pioneer nav units. Learning from this site has even allowed me to help out a few people as well. Again if I am breaking any rules let me know or kill the thread. Thanks

Shane

Musicsphere is "churning" my music as I type. I can't wait to check it out. The graphic part looks cool for sure. Somethin out of Minority Report, with the spin and touch of the sphere. And I am sure it will be updated with better features as it "gets out there" more.

Great news. I got BestBuy to trade me for the X920BT, SWEETNESS already did a firmware update and bypas. Can not wait to really check this thing out. I have an ipod touch and going to have to modify my old ipod cable with my digital av cable for my camera. Splice here and there.

OH wow .. yeah you need to re-calibrate your screen its within Start>control panel> I think its "stylus"

Well thnx for your help. I gave up and took it back to BestBuy, after arguin for awhile I got him to replace it. Almost got the X920BT on BestBuy, but then the

X920BT was at another store 15 minutes away!! GRRR So I might try to sell they new X710BT on ebay or something and order up a X920BT<<<< I want that or the Z110BT badly

Thnx again, I tried to recalabrate, I couldnt get to it. I would have been cool with that if I could have fixed it. My concern is what caused it? I trust the mods hands down, so maybe my daughter was tryin to press ok to quickly? IDK

Is a picture worth a thousand words? Here look at these 2 please. I down graded to 2.0 firmware. DLed the new firmware from Pioneer and tried to update, it wouldn't. After the 2.0 down grade it turns on and when I hit source goes to destination and once again navi warning screen. It is the screens calabration, it is of of sync where it is actually being touched. Is there a fix for this besides a HAMMER?2 screen pix.zip

Try restoring your back up and see if it still happens... if not, reformatting the unit via

FX 3.1 Link

this will format out any corrupted files.

After you have completed steps 1-9 see if the freezing still happens BEFORE you re-add the Diaftia-HybridMods_V2.3_NoMSN_1-14-10 and PMIII ~ Blue ~ V2 mods.

Ok last night befor I went to bed tried it again. Went into testmode and still can not double tap my device. So out of frustration I kept tapping all over the screen. . . . got in my device! From left to right it is APP folder, My_Doc, and more just remember those two for the first 2. Anyway the only way I can tap the first folder is if I tap at the right sode of the screen, the folder is on the left side. So it is like the unit is on drunk vision. Its like where I tap is out of whack for where it is actually tapping. So the FX3 does not help me as I can not get into FlashDisk, I cant get over far enough to tap it, or move it closer or nothing. Can I put FX3 into the LPUE080 folder? Like I was doing a firmware update from pioneer? BTW I use that same Terminator pic and 2 others, just thought that was kewl Thnx

I have modded my old F710BT then hadd to sell it. Bought new 3 weeks ago X710BT and modded this one out with Diaftia-HybridMods_V2.3_NoMSN_1-14-10 and PMIII ~ Blue ~ V2 I love those two mods, there are friggan GREAT! So I let my mother and daughter use my truck. I went to go somewhere and my screen is stuck on the navi waqrning screen. It connected to my phone and would play a cd, ipod is hooked up and thats it. No matter what I did I got no where. So just came from outside and got it in to test mode. I can click on start and thats it. Can not click on my device. I still have the old 2.0 update on my laptop, slapped it on a newly formatted SD card, held all the proper buttons to update (<<<<I mean FX3 way then tried the old Pioneer way>>> the Pioneer way and still nothing. It finally booted up to the screen with Destination, contacts, and source. When I click on source the destination button highlighted then stuck on nav warning screen. Thats it, Im stuck like chuck. Any ideas?

Please dont tell me to take it back to BestBuy, they were A-Holes last time I had to deal with them on a return. Firmware should be on 2.0 now.

1st I love this forum and want to thank everyone again for all the cool mods on my f700bt. Ok I just bought an 01 Lincoln Navigator and on the steering wheel I have controls for the factory radio. Is there something I can buy to run with my F700BT and those steering wheel controls? I am looking on google but found nothing. The other thing is I might sell it and buy 99 or new Expedition Eddie Bauer. My truck I sold was lifted and well uh, dont think I want to lift the Navigator. Thanks for any and all help.

That sounds like an awsome idea. Also I have been thinking of a way for built in radar. Annnd how about if cop cars could show up on the gps? Don't most police cars have a gps gig in them these days?

If your going with the ODB2 option wouldn't more ram need to be installed on the unit? A friend of mine added more ram to an older xbox.

Are these bad iseas?
