  1. I just bought an AVIC-8600NEX and want to backup my SD card right after I install it. I downloaded the backup files. I will see if I can get this to work once I get my AVIC installed.
  2. I know this is a very old thread, but I still felt compelled to reply. I have an LG V20. It was not ringing on calls. I got a system update on the phone and it started ringing. A few days later I got another system update on my phone, and it stopped ringing again. Damn this is annoying. Most of the time I will just hit my speaker phone button to hear the ring on the phone.
  3. That would be a quite useful split screen. I hope someone figures that out.
  4. I'm sorry that this might be off topic a little, but wanted to clarify the VR issue and my use of it under Chrome NAV. There has been a lot of discussion on the VR. I use VR a lot on my system for calling people, not for iPod and song selection. For the most part it works. It worked better with the original Pioneer programming. When I addd Diaftia's mod, the VR started to have some problems. With the original system and all modifications after, VR would always ask me to repeat a name. However, either it would learn what I wanted or I would pronounce the name better and it would re
  5. The add to Favorites is great. I have not tried you mod yet, still using Diaftia's and loving it. Your mod looks great so I may have to give it a try. I was hoping Diaftia's 3.0 would be released but still waiting. I don't get on the forum very often but do make a point to check in occasionally. Is the VR working on the Nav screen or is this still a problem? I rarely use it because too often it made mistakes and I don't want to call the wrong person, but I am just wondering. Thanks for all your fine work abb1.
  6. I was wondering the same thing... I installed mines about 3 weeks ago, and noticed the voice sounded the same :"{ The included Samantha voice file is the same one as stock. I forget why it was included because it has been quite a while since I put this mod on my AVIC. Read the thread from the beginning and you might discover why.
  7. I agree with this statement 100%. Others have posted their mods to previous mods in several of the different mod threads and it has been fine. Also one persons change may benefit the original modder. I think I remember Diaftia encouraging people to make any changes they want and post them so that he can see what was done and get ideas. Abb1 you are right about the need for more poeple to try their own mods and I would if I thought I had the time. I have done a few minor tweaks but not much. I changed the color of my clock on the Off Screen to a solid medium blue (I had it red and gree
  8. Lol, IMPOSSIBLE! Way to many files PLUS way to much coding! Diaftias original Data.zip is 15.2mb. Mine that I have done with new images and new coding is closing in at 21.5mb. Plus it would be total disrespectful to Diaftia who has a 3.0 update in the works I don't think it would be disrespectful. I have corresponded with Diaftia and he is a very reasonable person as far as I can tell. Also the 3.0 ver is supposed to have a lot of changes, which many of use are waiting for including myself. I just like the chromed theme and would love to implement it but don't have the time to figure it
  9. Hey abb1 this looks great. Any possibility of you posting the necessary files to put this theme on our systems with instructions as to what to do. I would love to have my F7010 look like that and I assume some others would probably also like it. Keep up the great work.
  10. Tell us all where you live so that we can avoid your neighborhood. I surely don't want to be hit by someone watching a movie instead of the road.
  11. This is exactly how to delete nonexistent cameras. There were several red light cameras in my area that have been removed and I deleted them from the map. There were also cameras on some freeways (don't ask my why) but I deleted several of those. If you have a problem putting the cursor on the camera zoom in as close as you can to make it easier to select. Goog luck. Sometimes its people adding in known speed traps where cops hide. The easier thing to do is go to in and configure the alerts to not notify you on those. Its the icon with the badge (or car) and radar. I think its the
  12. I did not know anyone was having problems running testmode from SD card but I grabbed this in case it ever happens to me. Thanks.
  13. Yes that will be in there. Working with 34by151 on a bunch of stuff since he had some things that he had been doing with my mods. The fuel calc and autokarta stuff is all going to be in there. He has also been working really hard to make it so that we will no longer need to have 3 different versions. All of the MSN/TMC and EU/US stuff will be settings that are configurable now. I just read through the Aussie thread. I thought your updates were near perfect but now I see that so more more can be added. I can hardly wait for the next version. Thanks for all the great work.
  14. Put the cursor on the map screen on the icon for the speedcam. Then go into the quick menu, then to route then to info. On that screen you will see edit cam. Select that and hit delete.

  15. I just check my AVIC-F7010BT and the version is 3.020100 official US Pioneer update.
  16. Actually 3.02 is the US version. I know because I have the official Pioneer version installed. I think form reading these threads that 3.01 is the EU version.
  17. I just tried the latest mod and I have to say it is great. The text on the main screen is easier to read. The split screen is cool too. When I checked it out in the emulator I was not sure I would like the zoom in and out buttons on the plan screen since the plus and minus signs where toward the bottom unlike the ones I showed you that were centered. Once I looked at it on the AVIC I thought they were fine. I changed the date/time on the off screen to 100 font and blue (matches my button illumination). I also changed the Cruise Dial background back to Aurora. I tried to get N-S-E-W
  18. I did not get this to work. NSEW I PMed you what I tired. I have an F7010BT, which is the same as an F700BT except 3 yr. warranty. If anyone with else get this working on a unit other than the F500 I would like to know.
  19. I would be willing to pay for priority mail flat rate shipping box which should be $10.35 for 11" x 8-1/2" x 5-1/2" box or $13.95 for 12" x 12" x 5-1/2" box, and maybe a very small amount for you. But since I have no idea whether this unit can be revived I won't pay much of anything. PM me if you want to discuss this. I have an F7010BT and already had to get my first one replaced under warranty because the BlueTooth died.
  20. Here is a starting point for you. This is what my brother, an installer usually sets them for then you can start adjusting from there. As already stated, each car environment is different and each person's taste are different so get it to your liking. It will probably take several tweaks before you get it where you feel it is just right.
  21. Yes. I bought it when it was $60 US. Response was much better but not stellar. With the new mods like Diaftia's mod it makes the 3.0 firmware the bomb although even more speed would still be better.
  22. Most people that have the iPod like the interface because they can control some iPod features with it. Yes you can connect many devices through video 1 or video 2 with the right cables. I have connected my cell phone to video 1 and played mp3s using it. That sounded great but there is no control. I just set my cell phone for shuffle. I have been considering hooking up one of those video playing hard drive devices so that I could load it up with movies and music but have not done so yet because finances are tight.
  23. I don't use an IPod and like a bigger clock so I may want to check this out. Thanks for sharing your work.
  24. I think I would have to take it for a test drive to see how I like it. Where would that screen be? Would it be another extra or replace something?
  25. Nope, you just need the poi files. Do an address search in San francisco or NYC and see if you see them. I know NSEW had a bunch more buildings than I do on mine. I am just not sure what else to add other than the additional POI files. To get more POI files check the map threads. The amount of POIs may depend on whether you are running NavTeq or TeleAtlas POI files. Just a thought.
