Quick question in regards to this - If you have already got the V3.0 with the hacks etc already on your device and you just want to update the map files (which I have downloaded already)...is it just a matter of copy and paste the contents of the different directories onto the device? I don't have to do a full system update and re-install the firmware do I? cheers

If you ever get a chance, do you think you could help me do that? Just that being in australia theres a heap of brand places that arent included. If not, I understand and appreciate the effort you contributed to this already!

I read it...want I meant was is it simple for me to add images to the branding.zip file and then put it on my AVIC? Maybe it's there and I've misread it?

So i ended up hooking up my US model f700bt to my computer power source to do all the updates while i waited for my wiring harness to arrive. its now cleanly installed in my subaru forester, with the FX3.1 on it, software and hardware bypass (coz i didnt know i had the software one on their!) and the australian v17 maps. I also have the CD-IU230 running under the handbrake compartment to a small pocket near the centre console with a little stand mounted in it to dock my ipod in. The unit is also running a Rockford Fosgate Punch 360 amp bridged to power my MTX thunder4500 in the back. Balance

Installed the FX3.1 and the v17 maps from here on my US model f700bt (using power from my computer to do it in the house!) and works flawlessly, so happy. cheers times at least a million!

Cheers....i literally just realised as well that this is the only real way i've read about to add icons without keeping the flipping SD card in! Again i read through this about people wanting to add more icons to the branding.zip...was that ever successful?

I remember reading somewhere that the sound whilst driving was infact lane guidance, and if you simply turn it off then the noise goes away.... now i also have a question, i read that someone else here was running the australia maps and V3 firmware....exactly the same as mine (and it was also said that this used ig08.3) ive added the brandings file to my unit and some icons show up such as dominos pizza...but not mcdonalds and stuff so if i go into the manage poi screen, will i be able to assign the appropriate icon just like that? (i ask and not try because i dont have my car in action a

Hey there guys, newbie registered but ive been doing a fair bit of reading before I registered....just have a question or 2 Im in Australia, just bought a US model F700bt. I plan on using the FX3.1 firmware on it just want to confirm that it will work properly, along with the Australian map updates found on here (V3Update03 parts 1 and 2 files...I've downloaded all the files i need, along with the Update02b files for the skin.....havent installed them yet because i wanted to confirm that I had everything i needed to get this underway) and that i just follow the instructions and copy
