  1. Thanks, heliskier... You sound familiar... have I seen you somewhere before? haha If you're up to date with your PDAPhoneHome thread subscriptions, you already know that I still can't get mine to work. I don't get why mine isn't connecting. I understand what I'm supposed to do, but it just doesn't move to the next step once I get the BT unit2 recognized and I hit FINISH on the phone. The D3 never responds to it. Hitting BACK or ESC and then SEARCH doesn't yield any results, either... It never sees my phone.
  2. My phone has Windows Mobile 6... what does "upgraded" refer to? Would this upgrade help me?
  3. Please don't flame me if this has been addressed... My phone is newer than the last page of this thread, so I figured I didn't have to search through every page. I have a Samsung SCH-i760, an AVIC-D3, and the BTB200. Has anyone gotten this combination to work? I have installed JetWare, but it does jack sh** on my phone. (I've heard that JetWare is not compatible with Samsung phones... bummer) I've called Pioneer and Samsung, and both parties blame the other. What happens is this: My phone will see the "Pioneer BT unit2" and list two profiles available: Handsfree &

  5. Sorry... I edited my last post after looking at the manual. I may have edited it while you were writing your response. So, the NavTraffic needs a separate cable (XM Data in the diagram on p. 9)?
  6. I was thinking it could be the cable, too, but a few facts make me think otherwise: 1. I can hear XM Radio, and on ch. 000 I can see my radio ID and everything. 2. The installer, who is a friend of mine, said that there's only one connection, and that he hooked it up the same way it was installed on my last car. He could be missing something, blowing smoke in my face, or just plain wrong. 3. The XM radio helpline (who, so far, is a bunch of idiots) never even suggested that there could be a cabling problem. They told me repeatedly that if I can get XM radio, NavTraffic should fall
  7. I had an AVIC-N2 installed in my last car w/ an Alpine 4ch amp and Alpine Type R speakers all around. I never heard the static. It was very crisp, and sounded great. Now, I have a D3 installed in this car with the factory amp and factory speakers. (just got the car recently) I hear the static after every button push. I'm not calling you a liar or questioning your knowledge, but I just want to believe that I can get this fixed. Maybe my static is amplified to the point of annoyance, or it's a different static altogether... Anyway, it's really not that big of a problem to me.
  8. Soooo... the sound file is a short clip of static? I doubt it. Do you mean that it's *trying* to play the file and nothing comes out but static, or do you mean that the static is somehow caused by the sound? Because, sometimes nothing comes out but static. I tend to believe that the static is noise which is amplified to auditory volume because of having both the factory amp and the D3 amp. But, that's just speculation. And... you're saying there's no fix for this? It happens to everyone, regardless of their setup? Aftermarket/stock/cheap/high-end parts make no difference? If so
  9. OK, guys... I had an AVIC-N2 w/ the P10-XMT tuner, and NavTraffic worked just fine. I recently installed a new D3, and I get XM radio... but not NavTraffic. When I go to the NAV screen to MENU and then Info/Traffic, and click on XM Status... the info screen pretty much says that there's no XM signal and it's not connected. The radio ID section is blank, too. I called XM 3 times today, and all they can say is "OK... tune in to channel 1, and leave it there for 20 min." I let the car sit there on channel one for an hour 3 times, and practically killed my battery trying to get NavTraf
  10. Flame me if you must... but this is the first I've heard of a squeel having to do with bluetooth. I too have a bluetooth module for a D3, and I have a squeel of sorts occasionally, but the installer told me it had something to do with the fact that my factory amp and my D3 are both connected still. The noise I hear sounds like static in between each button press, and when the unit is on the bluetooth "channel" (for lack of a better term). I think I've heard a squeel or loud beep at times, but I'm not sure when or why. Can someone elaborate on this for me? I did a quick search and
  11. [quote name="tjdehya"]lol, sry but for me I only like to do stuff I haven’t done before. I have done a few Nissan stuff already, just search through the pages in this thread. My take on it is if you see those, and you still felt the urge to post and ask for more then you don’t like my work so there is not much I can do to help you. The only exception is Dodge because if I make more and people still don’t like it... then I don’t care because I like it, and I will use it in my car :D Here are a few [u][b][images removed for everyone's convenience][/b][/u] [/quote] I think
  12. Hey, everybody! I just got my AVIC-D3 installed, along with the CD-BTB200 bluetooth adaptor. It's really cool the way it works, and I can finally hear the people I'm talking to with the top down! I am having some problems, though... I have a Palm treo 650 on Verizon's Cellular Network (if that much matters), and I can only keep the connection alive for about 10 sec if I'm not using the phone. During a phone call, it stays connected as long as I don't drop the call. The problem here is that I do not have enough time to initiate a call using the CD-BTB200 module, nor can I make
  13. Anyone have some good 350Z/Nissan backgrounds? I just got my D3 installed, and I'd like to customize it. The more BLUE, the better. If there's a car in the shot, I'd prefer a Blue Roadster... I think the Scion bg's from page 27 are awesome... something like that w/ the Z logo would be great! Thanks in advance! PS... Yeah, I asked for Eclipse backgrounds before... but I traded in my car. :D
  14. Upload them, maybe? Tutorial? Sharing is caring...
  15. Can somebody make me a "Navigation Loading" type if screen w/ the blue eclipse I posted above? Maybe I wasn't clear that I wanted that picture to be used to do more work to... and not that it was already done. (Did that make sense?) Thanks!
  16. Yet another reason that I'm considering spending twice as much on more features I don't need. Too bad the Z1/Z2 don't use upgrade disks, or else you could flash an N- or D- series radio w/ the QWERTY-friendly software.
  17. I have an N2 (w/ N3 software), and I have circumvented that problem by first putting in the city, then the name of the POI... or searching the "vicinity" through the various pre-sorted groups (gas station, bank, etc). I'd be nearly sure that all the Pioneer NAVs work in this way. Hope that helps at least a little.
  18. Anyone have a good background of an eclipse spyder in blue? If not, can somebody make one? I'd like to supply a picture, if I may. I've got an AVIC-N2, and I will soon be upgrading to a D3... so any appropriate background is appreciated. Please PM me if you would like to help me out with this. Thanks! ~Ryan, PA
  19. On the note of custom POIs, that IS something that Pioneer can do. At least if I understand what you mean by custom POI. I have an AVIC-N2, and this is what I WAS and WAS NOT able to do: A new mall opened near me, and it used to be just empty space along the highway. The first time I went there, I WAS able to sit in the parking lot, and assign MY EXACT LOCATION as a POI that I could guided to from anywhere, as if it was my HOME location... I WAS NOT able to update the roads that lead to the mall, so while I knew from my "breadcrumbs" (the little white dots that follow my car on t
  20. I got a PM suggesting I get a 7100, and I didn't know anything about it before. I went to Kenwood's site, and if they want to sell a lot of them... they definitely don't show it with their site. All they have is some ghey picture of a sunset on the unit, and that's pretty much it. No pics of the menus or audio playback... nothing you would ACTUALLY see on the screen. This is really bad for their business. I threw out the idea cuz I figured I wasn't going to buy anything that I didn't know what it looked like... especially the GPS setup. Now... I see some pictures of the unit, and I
  21. Well, text-to-voice is the one of the only things (other than a bigger screen, maybe, and the smart routing) that I'd get the Z1 for. I would like it to actually SAY the roads that I'm turning on to... Like instead of "Left turn ahead" I believe it says "Turn left onto Main Street," or whatever. That would be really helpful to me, since I drive either in the middle of nowhere, and all we have are back roads... or I'm in Pittsburgh, where all they have are one-way streets that are confusingly close to each other to tell where to turn without looking at the screen. I guess it so
  22. Thanks for the info. What about cons? Based on what I wrote before about how I plan to use it, is it worth spending twice as much on a Z1? When you say the D3 is faster w/ the iPod, does that have anything to do w/ having to use the actual iPod to choose your music? I'd prefer to keep my iPod hidden in the glove compartment, and using my Pioneer steering wheel remote. Is this possible? Thanks again for your quick reply.
  23. Awesome... I got a D3 & Z1 owner in the same thread! My question for the two of you is this... Why should I buy a Z1 if the D3 gives me pretty much everything else, except for Text-To-Speech Capability and the smart routing on the Z1? Is that all I'd be missing? If there is waaay more of a difference, then I can't find it on Pioneer's website when I compare the two. The HD in the Z1 is cool... but I have a 30GB iPod... and all 30GB is for music, as opposed to only 10GB on the Z1. I don't really care that I'd have to keep the nav disk in the D3 at *pretty much* all times, since
