GDGR Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 I've had my F700BT installed for a couple of weeks now. I have read the manual many times. Yet, some things still confuse me. I don't think these are software bugs (I have a pretty big list of those too, even after the update has been applied), these are just things I can't seem to figure out how to use. 1) In 3D mode, if you tap the map, you get to rotate and tilt the map. How do you get it back to "normal?" How do you get rid of the adjustment arrows? 2) In 3D mode, you can tap the map and fix it on the point where you tap. If you keep driving, the arrow moves but the map doesn't. How do you "release" the map and return to normal? 3) When on the phone, the phone number is at the bottom with the hangup and volume buttons. The map screen is behind but doesn't seem responsive to taps. Is there a way to stay on the phone but dismiss the phone information, so that the system is still responsive? Anyone know?

HiFiSi Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 1 - I believe you just touch the top right corner of the screen and they go away (I think my answer for question #2 will also work here as well) 2 - Push the map button 3 - No, I don't think it's possible Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 For question #1 I just touch the screen anywhere on the map until the red circle appears then I hit the MAP button. I concur with HiFi on the other two questions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GDGR Posted August 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Thanks guys. Neither approach worked for #1 last night. Even rebooting it still resulted in the 3D map being fixed, and the arrows still in place. However, this morning when I booted it up and drove to work, it came up normally. I guess it was just a bug. On #3, let me just be clear -- it's actually the case that when you're on the phone, you can't do anything with the touch screen? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skicrave Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Yep, that is correct for number three. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
offroaderf150 Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 yeah i had the same issue on my f90bt with the arrows. i couldnt get them to go away even by pressing the map button. after i rebooted it the next day, they were still there. i hit the map button and now they go away whenever i hit the map button. maybe software glitch?

hoonu Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Issue 3 is a royal pain in the ass if you ask me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
