  1. I was going to do it on the 24th, but the site was down. Right now, I have to wait until work slows down before I can attempt this as there is a lot of work still to do as far as getting all the different variances of the mod and then spending the time to upload them.
  2. 1- Newer maps (this is irelevant because we can install the latest maps anyhow) 2- It has a DVD player whih is nice if you have family or are stuck in traffic 3- It has the latest Apple chip which allows you to charge the iphone while having it plugged in. The F700 would play the music, but it would not charge it. The X series now has iphone support, whereas before it is mostly meant for ipods. 4- MSN (which I do not care about) 5- Nice shiny bezel which IMO looks better installed than the F700 I upgraded from the F700 to the X910 and I say that it is worth it, but that is just me
  3. The X920 cannot be modded. I would go with the X910BT which can be modded. The sound quality is the same on all units
  4. Here ya go, Merry Xmas, I hope this is what you want
  5. The reason that your Avic is going into the reboot loop is that it is looking for a file that it cannot find. This means that when you installed the mod, you forgot one of the subfiles. Reinstall everything, and I MEAN EVERYTHING, even if you think that you already have the file. My files are different even if they have the same name. Next, this is very important, De;ete your user data! Instructions are in the first post of my mod. You do all this, and it will work
  6. Thank you, that is VERY much appreciated, especially at a time that I am thinking about slowing down on posting the mods, as they are a lot of work posting them and all the work that comes along with that. The enthusiasm just isn't where it once was . I am presently still going to put up V5. This mod will be completely different with almost all images improved as well as some requested changes and a few areas that are a lot more functional such as the 'split screen' and the 'speedometer'. I wish that Pioneer would read this, and maybe make it so that their future Avics would be capable o
  7. That is the beauty of it! It looks gorgeous and it is still fully functional. Sort of like the ideal wife . one is no good without the other!
  8. NOT when he first posted it they werent, just look back at the threads. He probably did the same thing that I did and installed the updated .mdl files in a later release.
  9. Not a bad idea, but there are 93 possibilities, and that is a lot. When MisterBlue first incorporated this mod, there wereseveral cars that were not working. I did a search on some of the russian sites and I found updated replacements, so that is why a lot of mine now work. I spent three days testing about 40-50 cars which took a while with the constant reboots and all that I tested were ok, however, some of the ones that I missed may be duds. That is why I need to know which ones they are. One post was complaining about a jeep that caused the reboot, but I tested all the jeep looking vehicles
  10. The only way to fix this is that we HAVE to know what car it was that was loaded and then we have to delete it or fix it. So please, when changing any cars, remember which one it was so that we will know which ones are duds. These cars were created by russian modders for entirely different GPS systems, so there may be a couple that do not work. I tested out about 75% of them and only ran into one dud which was car #8 and that is now fixed. I didn't test them all though as it is very time consuming
  11. Actually, that is incorrect! The only thing that is resource intensive is the present files that are loaded and that are in the background. All the 3D cars feature is, is the ability to change vehicles and their sizes on a dime. The folders and the UI for the 3D images are NOT in the Data.zip, they are in an external folder so that it will not affect resources. I got about 2-3 cars that I choose between when I get bored with the one that I am using I have found that it is the image sizes that affects resources. When I first did the V3, my mod was at 25.7 mb. It was slow loading, it would hang
  12. Thank you for the compliments! It is good to hear !
  13. You have 'smart zoom' enabled. DISABLE IT! It was something that was designed for firmware 1.0 and 2.0 where there was no horizon available. Now with the background, sky, sun, moon, this feature should be just disabled. After you have smart zoom disabled, just tap the screen, and you will have the tilt arrows present. Just bring it down so that you can see the horizon and it will stay there. You can zoom in and out using the volume knob by tapping it up or down.
  14. Yeah, I find that finding a decent font is tough because the sizes all differ and a lot of the times, the fonts dont look like they do on the PC. I have tried around 20-30 fonts until figuring that the one I am using now, was the best to my liking, but I will probably change it once I find something better.
  15. Looking Good! The only thing that I would change is that horrible BNT font, but that is just a personal preference. Once I am done playing with mine, I will give it a try
  16. This wont work with the AVIC P5200DVD. These mods in this forum are only for the AVIC F series and the X series (X920bt excluded)
  17. Dont worry, I will release it ONLY with MSN. The Non-MSN is my baby alone, as I dont use it, and it will never be in my area, so it is just wasted space for me.
  18. I just tried the links and they are fine. Yes, ANY F series as well as the X series (except X920bt) is capable of running this
  19. It doesnt take long to boot. I start my car and then it depends on how long it takes to get a GPS signal. In general, it takes about 15 seconds for everything to, but then again, it all depends on your GPS signal. I dont know too much about the system languages. Everything about modding you will find in the F-series Hacks/Mods forum as the X series and the F series are the same (except the X920) as it comes to mods.
  20. It is because they are compressed. You will need Ipaq Image Explorer 1.0.1 to open the images, save them in either 32b format or 24b format (depending if they have alpha layers) and then compress them back again after they are altered
  21. Nah, my version is never posted as it is a stripped down version (no msn, it is all removed). I don't post it as everyone wants msn so I just post it with the msn included. Either way, it works awesome with no glitches
  22. It is easy! Just use 'selective color' to change it to the color that you want and then perform it as an action. Next just use that action on all images that younwant to change and they will all be the same changed color
  23. Go with the X910! It is moddable and you will be able to update your maps as they come out, so you will ALWAYS have a system with the latest maps. Lol, my X910 has newer maps than the Z120 and the X920. After three years, these systems will be obsolete because of the maps and the X910 will still be up to date Because of the OS, you will NOT be able to hack the X920 like you can the X910 or the F series.......EVER!
  24. Thanks, I am going to try, but it is not looking good as I only have today off. Good news is that my version that I have done is rock solid, looks awesome, and works like a dream. However, that's my version which means I still have to create an MSN version, and a EU version, upload files, photographs and create a new post. This will take more than one day. I initially had more than one day off, but with the goofy season, work is never ending . Can't wait till January!
  25. Yes, you are in test mode, however, you are not in a windows environment like you are with WinCE that is found in the F series, or the X910. Therefore, you will not be able to change any files......ever! The advantage to not having a windows OS, is that it does not go through the booting process that windows CE does, therefore, it starts up much quicker and is more responsive. However, not being able to change the appearance, features, or newer maps is a poor trade off , one that I will never do.
