  1. Yeah i read that, but not too big of an issue, from what i read the older ipods do a little better and mine is a 5gen ipod vid one so no big issue. plus i ordered a factory referbished unit so it was less then $1000. and from my exp with referbished electronics, they are sometimes better then brand new ones b/c they have to be compleatly checked for issues befor they leave the factory and it still has a 2yr warranty.
  2. Well, is the 9960 going to be out within the next 2 weeks? I need my navi for a trip i'm taking in a few weeks and I want at least a week or so before i leave to get used to it. If it is going to be out then, i can wait, if not i will be ordering the 9140 later today.
  3. Well, after a love/hate relationship with my f90bt it died over last weekend. SOMEHOW all the main files in it got renamed to symbles or erased. I tried reformatting and reinstalling from the 3.0 install thread info and still nothing. I think the flash mem is going bad in it, So now I'm going for the Kenwood 9140. After looking at all the things that the avic x's and z's have and dont have and the kenwood, and each units issues it seems the kenwood has all the features that i wanted on my pioneer (RDS, Station naming, better EQ and sound staging, Garmin (yeah i know stripped down version of it
  4. well, if you use one of those PAC coverter boxes to make it work with the radio, you need to reprogram it, but the only issue is, if you repreogam it to do pre-sets, you will lose track changing on cd's, ipod, and sd card files (that command it tied in with the seek change command)
  5. From what i have tried, all the mods that use the trip computer have this issue, for me my trip computer works 2/3 of the time, same way in 3.0 and in every other mods i have tried. I thinks its more of an issue with the trip computer script then the IDT mod.
  6. speed limit will only display if the maps you are using has the speed limit info in it for whatever road you are on, the speed limit on mine only shows up of some roads, (like mian roads and highways) but alot of roads dont have the info in the file for them.
  7. 1) do you mean history? 2)i'll find a shortcut for it 3)i'll include that on the next release 4)that would be something that no one has figured out yet, 1) I think yes, in German it means "letzte Ziele" 2) Great! 3) Great, for the TMC info I found the way to edit SYS.txt, but not for your onscreen buttons. 4) So YOU will be the first! See you Jörg hmm thats weird, my day/night scheme changed is not linked to my headlights being on, it changes depending on what time it is on my unit.
  8. well, even with the new values not many showed up on mine either, but more then before, MAKE SURE that the file you changed the values in was correctly saved/ziped up in the data.zip. the first time i changed it in mine i saved it but forget to re-zip the data.zip with the new file in it (was working on the data.zip without fully nzipping it) and i had no street lables, BUT once i chacked and realized my mistake it started show them, BUT only the streets right next to where i was, and then only a few of them.
  9. i replaced the part of the clip_planes file that deals with the roadsigns in the IDT mod, if you just add it to the file without replacing the original code that you need changed then it prolly wont work b/c the file is telling it 2 diff commands. Just replace that part that deals with the roadsigns
  10. Not working for me yet... can you help? Here is what I did. Right click your file, Save As clip_planes.txt. Opened the COMMON file inside IDT's data.zip (which I am currently using) Dropped your clip_planes.txt in and renamed it clip_planes.ui Whad did I do wrong? Thanks for the help the only problem is the clip_planes file in IDT mods has more code in it for other stuff that the one posted up on here does not have, you should just mod the clip_planes file in IDT mod to change it to what you need (i just copy and pasted the code i wanted to change from one to the other.
  11. instead of just clicking the multiroute button you have to press it longer ahhh cool ty
  12. ok, i must be blind BUT where do i find the mutiroute thing. I have found the mutiroute button on screen but it just pulls up a list of routes not the cool map showing all the diff routes at the same time.
  13. cool thx, just down loaded (since i don't need a keyboard to do that on my computer) and will load them into my unit l8ter today
  14. yes it does controll it, BUT if you use the same button to controll the preset as you do to change tracks on the cd/ipod, you cannot use both. you can either set it to change presets OR you can use it to sek radio station and change tracks. this does not appy to those who have separate buttons available to program the preset up/down and cd/ipod up/down on
  15. This update looks GREAT! I have not had the chance to test it out on the road, but from just playing around wit it for a few mins sitting outside i love it. deff like how you put the trip comput stuff on screen with a touch of the screen to show/hide it. Can't wait to see what you add next to it!!!! (not sure exactly what you could, but i'm sure you will find something cool!!)
  16. I have been looking around for some new scheme that will work with igo 8.3 /3.0. I know that there are alot out there but most have to be slightly modified to work on the avics (pointing them to look for the right files in the right places). Both my computers are not worked well enough for me to try modding the files myself (posting from my palm pre now), but i have seen a few in the gurjon mod that would look good, but they need to be modded a bit to work on the avic. I'm sure I'm not the only person on here that would very appreciative to anyone posting up some new scheme for us to use!! th
  17. great mod, but i have one question, where can I find some map coloc skinds (other then the crappy pionner ones that came with the update). Will the old one work that i have from the chm mod from 2.0? or do i need to get one that will work with igo 8.3?
  18. Have you tried to re-calibrate the screen (access it by holding down the "menu" button), also try resetting your unit if that does not work, then recalibrate again. if that does not work then you are prolly screwed and will either hve to get a new radio or send that one off for repair
  19. try hitting the reset button on your unit, that will fix that issue (at least it did for me in the past)
  20. ummm, how is it their falt that they had an earthquake where there servers are located. I mean really guys, there are some things you just have to not blame on them as being their fook up.
  21. Well, I see the way you are doing the 3.0 update as a HACKED version myself, you took the firmware of the X series and put it into your F series..... hmmm sounds like a hack to me. We don't fully know what really has been fixed on the F series firmware untill the update comes out. like others have stated, the X series might have hardware parts (updated or just diff chipsets) then th F series that might not allow the f series take full advantage of the X series firmware, BUt the f series 3.0 update might have the fixes in it that work better with our hardware. As for the LONG list of proble
  22. i use a regular stereo 3.5mm male to male cable to attach my palm Pre to my av2 connection to listen to pandora with NO ISSUES what so ever, you only need the special AV cable if you are going to use vid, if not, a standard audio cable will work fine.
  23. I doubt a free Firmware update will enhance the performance the same way as the Map/Firmware update they are charging us for. One central point is the update to IGO8.3 which is meant to be much sleeker and the main reason for the increased performance. So from a free update I expect only minor bug fixes. Not fair to us Beta Testers, but that's how they will play it. It is up to us to decide if we will buy Pioneer Products again. See you Jörg Thats true that it wont be the same as the 3.0 update BUT like has been said many time before, in order to use the iGo 8.3 that is the maj
