Worked perfectly. To test without actually driving, I added a speedcam at the current gps position and was able to see the speedcam and speed limit straight away. However, during simulation the speedcam info did'nt change, even when the car icon moved. Guess speedcams won't work during simulation. Just wanted to mention, in case some one wanted to test the feature without actually driving. Were you able to test the saved poi search, as that is another very useful feature to have, especially on the road? Thanks a lot for all your help.

Thanks Alex. I certainly hope that you can find a solution, as this feature is very useful.

Yes, the device type was set to 749UC and speedcam_enabled=1 in sys.txt. I 'am not sure what you mean by flag is set in both? Which other file should I check? I know I did delete the save files because the intial location was shown in LA, till I got the GPS fix. Also, when I press the Extr1 Menu->POI Menu->Saved POI Search, it simply returns to the map screen. However, when I go through Find Menu->POI->Saved Search, it works as expected. Is this feature tested or is it just me? Thanks, seeker

The only thing non-standard I did was to add 3d car feature in sys.txt and data.zip. Just to be sure, I replaced them with yours, but still no luck. Any other ideas?

Yes, I turned on the speedcam option under warnings and did get the legal disclaimer. I also verfified that there is an alarm on the basic camera types. In addition, the speedcam volume along with master volume is also turned on under the volume settings. I never tried the speedcam warnings on my device and was wondering if they even work on the F500. Thank you very much for all your help.

Hi Alex, Installed the 3.1 mod on a F500 running FX3.0 and been testing for a week. Every thing works as expected. Overall, a great mod. You and your fellow modders deserve a big thank you. However, I'am not getting any warnings (both audible and visual) for speed cams. I can see the speedcam icon (small black&white camera) on the map, but nothing happens when I approach it. It's the same in simulation also. I verfied that both audio/video warnings under the settings/warnings menu are turned on, master volume is not muted etc. I even tried setting the speed limit to 10 mph, but still

Worked like a charm. I tested it on a F500BT running hacked 3.0, with 2009.6 maps. Thank you very much N-S-E-W for figuring this out.

I turned off the battery status in the menu and it no longer appears in the map window. I would expect current speed/elevation to showup, wether navigating or not. It is very convenient to glance at the avic and know how much above/below the speed limit you are travelling. If it is not there, you need to check the car's speedometer to get the speed, which anyway is not as accurate as the gps speed. That said, can you please explain the reason for not showing current speed/elevation while navigating? I am not really keen on the multiplan and mentioned it only becaus

Hi IDT, I installed the 3.0 final version on a F500BT US model, but not getting the expected functionality. For starters, the mute and clear route buttons are overlaid by the battery status icon. Current speed/ elevation icons do not showup while navigating, but showup when stopped completly. Multi route doesn't show option to show the routes on map. Nothing major like reboots/hangups, though. Itried msn version, alternate version, regular version, formatted avic and reinstalled, but nothing fixes the issues. Your mod mentions the device as 746 UC ins sys.txt, but I loose TTS when t

The latest data.zip should have the toggle working fine in navigation mode only, If your not in navigation mode there is not toggle. Yea the schemes will show up, you need to make sure you unzip the main archive and then copy the schemes zipped into the scheme folder. If they are not showing up then either there not in the right place, the GFX folder is not in the right place or doesn't exist. As for the sky, this is something that may be trickier to resolve. I had already setup original software using the 3d toggle to set the sky so I can see it, moving over to the new data.zip and sy

Hi David, Thanks for a a great mod. I followed your instructions and copied all the files, but the map screen doesn't show the sky. I tried running the route simulation, still no sky. Other than the stock pioneer red/blue schemes,I can't see any of your schemes either. Also, the time icon doesn't toggle as you mentioned. Other than that, most of the mods seem to work. I am running unofficial 3.0 with 2009.6 maps on a F500BT. Any ideas what where the probelm might be. Thanks in advance.

Update: I didn't get a stylus as a part of my avic package, so I assumed I can use my finger to select. I guess the icons are too small for finger touch. When I used a stylus (mechanical pencil with lead retracted), it worked and I was able to backup my device. It does work off the AC charger also. Did every body a stylus as part of the avic package? Or, is it only me who didn't get one?

Hi, Iam trying to enter the testmode to backup my F500BT headunit. I read the sticky in Hacks on how to enter testmode and downloaded the zip file. When I boot my unit with testmode SD card, it copies the file ok, but when I press the X on the upper right corner, nothing happens. I tried the screen calibaration and rebooted with the same result. I see in the sticky it is mentioned to turn on the engine to boot the unit. Is this necessary? Iam trying to boot the unit of a wall charger. Is this the reason I cant enter testmode? My unit's is running version 2.006. Will this version boot
