  1. F-series model: F90BT Phone make/model: Samsung Moment (Sprint) Ease of connection: Easy Phone book transfer: Does Not Transfer Sound quality: Poor Comments: The phone worked flawlessly on the original firmware. After the phone recieved a Bluetooth update late last year, the phone book would no longer transfer the the sound quality became poor.
  2. The things I didn't like about 3.0 were the street names missing in 3D mode and the highway interchange ramps in 2D aren't smoothly curved anymore. They look terrible and barely represent the actual curve of the road.
  3. Try this thread. I did the hardware bypass, so I'm not familiar with the alternative method. Software mod "bypass" confirmed - Put away your wi
  4. There's a hardware bypass and a software bypass you can do. Check the F series boards for details.
  5. I've noticed that if I lose signal from the gps antenna for only a moment, it will recalculate. It does that mostly when I'm in the mountains or downtown Charlotte.
  6. Mine did that too after the 3.0 install. Try holding the "memory" button for a couple seconds. I think that's what it took for it to save the custom color.
  7. Awesome, thank you for posting that! Do you happen to know the pixel dimension to use for a 1st gen iPod Touch? Also, do you need to know what kind of compression to use before converting the DVD?
  8. Have you used the F series since the 3.0 firmware update? They're nearly identical to the X. "Significantly better" would really only apply if you're comparing the F series with firmware 2.0 or earlier.
  9. It seems like the new map is rendered differently in 2D. I've noticed all the on and off ramps are now "choppy" instead of being smooth turns.
  10. This is correct! I just did this with my F90BT and it installed the firmware for MSN Direct. The funny thing is, 10 mins prior to reading your post, I was on the phone with MSN's customer support canceling my subscription. Looks like I need to purchase it again.
  11. It looks like there's enough room with ash tray removed. It also looks like it will be mounted very low in your dash.
  12. I put together a mock-up of the 2007 Acura RL navi image if anyone's interested. I really wanted one from the 04-08 TL or TSX, but this was the best I could find. It's not exact since the image I referenced was a low res photograph of the navi screen. I also changed the "Acura Link" text with "MSN Direct" text.
  13. MSN should give us another month for free. I didn't renew my subscription because the signal strength was always weak and I needed to reset the unit every couple days for it to work. If it's been corrected, it might be worth the price.
  14. That can't be true. I had not one single problem upgrading to 3.0 with the parking brake bypass and it works flawlessly aside from a couple annoyances that I posted in another thread. The Pioneer reps probably say that to discourage people from altering their product.
  15. I got my 3.0 installed last night and spent some time using it today. My biggest concerns are the missing road names in 3D mode (when zoomed out above 500ft) and I also can't get my hard buttons to stay one color. Every time I turn the unit off and restart the car, it defaults back to the changing multicolor scheme. Is there a certain way to save a custom color?
