  1. I've been holding out for a long time on updating my f90, I added your mod yesterday and I'm absolutely blown away. I've got a lot to learn, you have really moved the navigation using this unit forward quite a bit. A map switching inquiry, can maps be kept in separate folders on the SD cad and switched? Or can maps be mixed between the flash storage and sd storage(some of each Tele Atlas/Navteq)? http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/29707-teleatlas-201006-north-america/ This thread has some sys text settings on changing map storage location, I was just wondering what/how/if it could be
  2. I still use this excellent utility, my old tilt and now tilt 2 aways syncs my contacts with last name first. The util works great but a couple of minor changes would make it so much faster to use. Any chance to get it updated? Once I correct all the names to be first name last name, reordering everything is quite tedious I have about 300 numbers in my phone book to correct and organize. 1. an auto-sort re-number feature to re-sort and renumber the contacts rather than moving them up/down. 2. In aditon or alternately drag and drop a contact row(s) rather than clicking to move it up or dow
  3. I found my own answer inderectly through several threads here and on the web. I did a factory restore and re-sync'd using itunes and no most of my cover art is showing up.
  4. Hey all, Hoping somebody knows how to fix my issue. My wife bought me a new 160gb ipod classic for christmas. I have it connected to my F90bt via the IPOD cable that came with the stereo. The ipod seems to be working great along with the F90 for everything except it will not show any of the album artwork. I've verified that the artwork is there in the tunes, it is seen in coverflow on the ipod and in itunes on the pc. I've tried it with one or many albums loades and the art doesn't show up. Are there more than the 3 locations/sizes I'm aware of to try and see the art? There's the small ico
  5. My first attemp simply failed to work for unknown reasons when following the instructions exactly as written, most seem to be having sucess. I did get the firmware update to work right last night. 1. Turn the car or stereo on as you would normally. This does not do a reboot of the unit and that is what is needed for the Avic to see the upgrade card properly. 2. After starting the unit I Re-instered SD card #2 from the 3.0 update 3. I Hit the reset button to force the Avic to do a full reboot and recognize the SD card properly 4. followed the directions for the MSN direct update a.
  6. Now that I'm home I see the MSN upgrde file on the sd card. The upgrade manual refers to having a MSN connection and it taking 8 minutes to get the MSN firmware upgraded. The file on the sd card is only 1.5 mb I can't imagine that file would take 8 minutes to process onto the unit. Anyways I've no clue how to force it to run the upgrade at this point. It looks like I have to wait for someone to figure it out, Pioneer to provide a solution, Though under warranty I don't intend to send the unit back for something like this that should be repairable by a simple install file. I also can try r
  7. these are not dual zone units, what you see/play on one plays on all....
  8. well that's cool i did not even think to look on the card, the install guide indicated that it seems to need to "connect" over the air to complete doing the upgrade for MSN. MSN service is "iffy" near my home but I travel through the Phoenix area daily and the signal strength there is peretty good from several sources. I'll be interested in your "testmode" results if you get to it, I will take a look at the upgrade card again later as well.
  9. I have same issue, after 3.0 I can't get the F90 to connect to do the MSN portion of the upgrade. Not a brilliant idea to push the upgrade over the air, makes no sense when they could have put it on the memory card. Pioneer or Microsoft could get smart, they could still post a downloadable version of the update. The MSN service could be nice but at this point I may never subscribe as it's never got the data I need in a timely fashion, having to wait 15-30 minutes for the data to update, heck I'm to the destination already and it's just now got some data?? Just out of curiosity, out of
  10. I did a quick search but found no info here or via google, will the CD-SR1 work with the F series? I've Got an F90-bt in my Honda Accord, the Accord steering wheel has only three buttons, i've not bothered with hooking them up through any of the after market products yet, it seems like a costly "why bother it doesn't work as expected" situation. A more feature rich control like the CD-SR1 at $20 would be a no brainer quick add-on to buy for me! http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/ ... D-SR1.Shop
  11. Hi all I just started having this constant reboot issue today. I purchased my Avic F90bt in late March. 1) Past issues (reboots, freezing) Seldom have I had reboots, the occasional reboot when setting a route before the gps acquired signal 2) Have you (or professional) upgraded your Avic to the latest update 2.0 came pre installed on my F90 3) Did the issue start before or after the update, if applicable? N/A 4) Did the issue start after a hack, a mod or a bypass? I still have CMH928's last/latest awesomeness installed and no it did not start before, during or after the hac
  12. Many of the "hacks" significantly improve functionality, i hope Pioneer has looked at the community hacks here and fixed bugs and added features in V3 based on their popularity, or simply as optional settings/components. My phone voice dial would simply not work right if not for the phone database organizer/editor shared by someone nice here. Many of the "mods" are serious improvements to the navigation functions: better icon arrangements function Icon availibility that makes sense better compas better time Speed/elevation speed limit signs radar and redlight warnings poi icon
  13. on the pioneer website the support section for the f90 has a link and definately says: Map Upgrades â– CNSD-100FM: 2009 model year map upgrade and version 3.0 firmware
  14. so has anyone gotten this working well during travel yet(if so with what tuner and antenna setup?) or is it still limited to good reception while stopped?
  15. Please don't take what I thought to be a simple suggestion to relocate one icon too personally I'm not suggesting you rewrite or change your mod at all simply suggesting an alterative layout idea. I'm quite happy with using it as-is knowing full well I've not got the time or currently the skill to reproduce or change it and that you don't have to share it much less host it either. I did not fiddle with moving the swappable icons in your mod, I don't have that skill/knowledge yet and may never. I loaded it as-is and found what appears a repeatable occurence. That occurence being if I chang
  16. Not sure if this really helps at all towards this thread. Rather then linking via bluetooth go USB. There is an interenet sharing application in most windows mobile phones, you often must find it and create a shortcut to use it, the application lets you share the data cannection from your phone to other devices via Bluetooth or USB connection. if you have a data plan you can tether your phone to share/use the internet connection with other devices in essence turning it into a wireless router or modem. I've done this with my phone and laptop via USB the result is pretty decent data speed, howev
  17. This is a great mod, I've been lurking here and using this mod since the initial release on my very recently purchased F90bt. Couple observations with latest release... did I miss a release or two in the last couple of weeks or are there a lot of new images in the graphics? Definately not complaing the mod looks nicer than ever. The back navigation arrow shows on some screens and I like it better then the sideways u-turn looking one, but why not use it in all menus? Or is that considerably more work then you want to commit to, which would be completely understandable! I tested swa
