  1. It arrived, only 5 days from the UK too! Total including shipping was $50. WORKS GREAT! Gone from only being able to pick up ONE AM station in Dallas/Ft. Worth to more than I can count. FM stations much better too! BIG THUMBS UP!
  2. Hoping someone here can help... Found some nice looking button images at viewtopic.php?f=34&t=25947 but cannot find how to modify my 3.0 upgraded unit to use them. Can anyone help? THANKS!
  3. Thanks, mind pointing me to how to add them ? THANKS!
  4. Any folder you want, unless you want them to be working... ? I asked as, and yes I have done some modding, I cannot locate any folders with images with the names inside the zip file posted. The file names in the zip file are: 746_32K_Home_32b.bmp 746_32K_OM-019_32b_poi.bmp 746_32K_OM-019_32b_address.bmp button_volume.bmp button_volume_mute.bmp
  5. what folder, in 3.0, do these go in?
  6. On the Audi harness which connects to the radio, anyone know which wire color is the power one for the Audi amplified antenna?
  7. I have the Connects2 for my '08 Audi A4, drove me crazy how the left side control when spun up or down scrolled through the freequencies insted of my preset stations. Then I accidentally PRESSED the knob and wow... each press of it goes to the next preset station. If yours has a knob like this try it...
  8. Found it! $50 including shipping on ebay... http://cgi.ebay.com.my/ws/eBayISAPI.dll ... 0028814425
  9. Yeah, the first link cannot find anyone who sells and has in stock. Spoke to a guy who seems knowledgeable at CarTunes today. Basically he said that: the Antenna out lead from the AVIC does not provide enough power for the powered antenna the Audi comes with. To solve this need to simply run 12v to the Audi antenna power amplifier. Just need to figure out which wire it is now. Also found out another interesting tidbit... since the rear speakers are amplified (factory) and the volume was too low when connected to the AVIC they instructed a simple solution they had just done another 08 A
  10. ARGH! Contacted them, out of stock with no date on when they will have again. Going to go the dual din antenna plus another adapter route... will post results once done...
  11. Diversity antenna. Thanks.. As I thought then, to get optimal reception need both connected.
  12. Does anyone know if the two antenna connections are for? is one FM and the other AM? Satellite? My Audi is an 2008 A4, came from the factory with the Symphony sound system, NO satellite radio, NO Bose, NO Navigation.. Yet connecting to it in the back are TWO antenna's...
  13. I found a splitter: http://www.hifisoundconnection.com/Shop ... /SFV/30046 which may do the trick, depending on what the two antenna connections are for. Would get another Audi antenna connection adapter (for a total of 2) which would then allow connection of both antennas. Thoughts?
  14. anyone here have pointers regarding the Pioneer AVIC antenna connections in a B7? I got the adapter from ENFIG.com, but... there are TWO antenna connectors in the Audi. The AVIC only has one so the question is; how to connect the other from the Audi? Notice that with the AVIC the AM reception is pretty much non existent (only able to get one station in DFW). What are the two antenna connections in the A4 for? i.e. is one for AM and the other for FM or is one connection for AM/FM and the other for satellite radio? My A4 did not come with satellite radio BTW... Suggestions? Hints
  15. Get SQL Lite, it is free. Open up the phone book data file in the User folder. No idea how to get to your phone but that at least gets you part way there...
  16. OK, anyone here have pointers regarding the Pioneer AVIC F7010BT (same as F700BT) antenna connections in a 2008 Audi A4 (B7)? I got the adapter from ENFIG.com, but... there are TWO antenna connectors in the Audi. The AVIC only has one so the question is; how to connect the other from the Audi? Notice that with the AVIC the AM reception is pretty much non existent (only able to get one station in DFW) whereas with the OEM radio got boatloads of AM stations.. Have the antenna wire hooked up to the antenna wire of the AVIC and set in the AVIC to "Power" Suggestions? Hints?

  18. Searched, found no answer nor perusing various .ui files, etc. Is there a way to change on the Main screen text from "Phone" to "iPhone" at lower left?
  19. Definite thumbs up! Big time improvement, maps, tap recognition, etc.! WELL WORTH IT!
  20. Go into the AV Settings, for the antenna make sure it is set to "Power", this will send power on signal anytime the unit is on. If it is in "Radio" mode it will only send the signal if you are listening to the radio... This solved similar issue for me...
  21. OK, here is what I will try then.. 1. Rename the file Image.zip 2. Unzip it 3. Use 7zip to rezip it with extension .7z 4. Rename Image.res
  22. Trouble/confused... Not sure what is the error... Zipped up the folder: "Images" after replacing a couple of the images inside the UI folder. No workie. Which way should they be zipped up and the file then renamed "Image.res"? 1. Folder already created: Image/common Image/AV Image/Tel Image/Main In other words, a folder named "Image" with the subfolders: AV, Common, AV and Tel Here is the file I have, can someone take a look and see what is wrong with it? http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=6e97 ... f6e8ebb871 OR... 2. Folders AV Common Main Tel
  23. Need some assistance/direction... I installed the GTIMatt version, very nice! A couple questions... 1. When a route is not currently active I would prefer to NOT have the following displayed towards the lower left: Date Elevation Speed Time and towards the upper right would prefer the icon for GPS satellites to not be displayed Could not locate the "navigatemap_800_480.ui" file so I could edit/comment out the code that makes them display. Anyone point me to it or be so kind as to modify the data.zip file so they are not displayed? 2. Would VERY much like to have th
