Hey guys.  my last Pioneer was the X910BT.  Loved that stereo, but unfortunately it got stolen (with my entire car).  I'm in the market for another Pioneer and was looking at the AVH-X4600 BT on Amazon.  Must features are:  GPS, BT (+ A2DP audio), HD Radio (don't care about XM) and inputs for rear backup cam.

Does anyone have any recommendations whether this is a good unit, or perhaps some good alternatives if this one isn't?

Thanks!

No one has an opinion...?

Hey guys.  getting a new stereo and I need honest opinions from folks with the AVIC-X950BH.  Do you guys like it?  Any major problems?  I really like the feature set on it (a2dp, built-in HD radio) but my x910bt was a little sluggish....

How can I make the GPS on my X910BT stop routing me to a location I have set? For example, let's say I tell it to "Go Home." Then I remember how to get to my house, and I want to have it stop telling me what to do. How do I cancel the route function?

Just hit the "menu" button and then under "Destination" hit "delete destination"

that was a totally different problem, it had nothing to do with you orignal issue.

 

as mentioned above, you need to figure out which device the problem is with.

 

the easiest way is to substitute different components, for ex: try hooking up a dvd player to the camera input on the avic and see if that video signal ahows up. if it doesnt, they the problem is with the avic. if it does work, then try to hook up the camera to something like a small tv to make sure that the camera is working.

Roger that. Hopefully the backup input itself on the x910bt isn't bad....

 

Got it from somewhere or modded it yourself?

Nope, I got it here. I used the FX 3.1 firmware....

sorry, this made it sound like it wasn't

 

 

regardless, i dont think that is you problem. but it could become another problem.

 

i would test to see if the problem is the avic not showing the image, or if the camera is not outputting an image.

So, it turns out that you were right-it was connected to constant 12V, however after switching it to Accessory, it made no difference

first off, if the camera is connected to constant power, it will never shut off, and will drain the car battery. reconnect power wire to an acc power source.

 

second make sure you have a good ground.

 

make sure you have the reverse wire from the avic connected so the avic knows when to switch to the camera source.

I *believe* I have it connected to accessory 12v but I'll make certain.

Well, here was my answer to my original topic I just posted about overclocking....I'm assuming this over like a lead balloon....too bad really

So, I'm admittedly new to this stereo, and you'll forgive me if this has already been thought of, but I thought of the following:

I've had Windows CE devices (Aka "Windows mobile" pdas) where I can overclock the CPU to an extent. Has anyone ever thought of making an overclock app that is compatible to 'speed up' the UI?

Just an idea....

I fixed mine with a custom firmware...

I have an Axxess too, but I haven't gotten mine working just yet, so I couldn't comment (I just got it installed and I'm in the middle of troubleshooting on my Scion, lol!)

Hello All. I apologize that my first post is a call for help, but unfortunately it is what it is.

I have a 2007 Scion tC and I recently purchased a good used X910bt unit from Ebay. I also purchased a Boyo VTK350 backup camera. I've included the 'manual' that came with the camera here, in the hopes that someone might be able to help me.

I've connected the black to the frame, and the red to constant 12V (mainly because I'm assuming it needs constant power; the documentation doesn't say anything, so I'm assuming it does). I've connected the Yellow cable to the brown input on the unit, but no video.

Any ideas?

Thanks for the awesome site btw (I've already updated my firmware/maps!)
