I can't get my F-900 to even go to test mode. Any suggestions?

I have this same issue. In the past all I had to do was boot into test mode then delete the gpspara.bin files then it would be resolved, but now my unit won't go into test mode. It just keeps rebooting at the startup screen. Help please

I suggest redoing the 3.0 upgrade from start to finish.

Figured it out. It turns out that my initial download of the torrent got corrupted. Thanks for everyones help.

try unzipping it with winrar on your pc...

I'll give that a shot. I used winzip initially. I'm downloading it again.

I thought I'd add to this thread instead of starting a new one.

 

I installed 3.0 on my F900 as per the instructions provided in the first post, but now my unit doesn't boot up properly. It boots fine up to the menu screen, but "System is starting up please wait" won't go away.

 

I've done some searching and tried deleting the gpsparaxx.bin files and clearing the user\userdata\ contents with still no luck.

 

I have performed the steps provided for the 3.0 upgrade carefully 3 times now, and I always get the same result. Is there something I'm missing?

funny I'm quoting myself. I attempted 3.0 again and noticed an error message when copying the My Flashdisk from the torrent. It says "Error: can not copy canada.poi". The torrent must have gotten corrupted for me while downloading. It took forever. I'll try it again later.
