tacomaboy Posted August 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 Well its nice to know I am not the only one who really hates the bootup time. I wonder why other brands dont have this problem, what have they done differently? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CatchMeIfYouCan631 Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 Does any other unit use 3rd party softwares like the F Series? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AR_159 Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 Just a quick poll to see if I am too anal, or if the bootup time is really as annoying as I imagine it to be. I drive 10 mile spurts to work and back so maybe that makes a difference. *edit: retrain myself = refrain. LOL you really hate the boot time. Agreed man, it does suck, but hey maybe there's a way to shorten it...and from what i read, the EU FW update shortened it to about 30 seconds full function. There is hope for you @ CatchMeIfYouCan631: Hi, I am from germany (EU !). Have just made the update on 0019 FW. Sorry, but nothing has changed to boot time. Everything remains the same. I had so much expectations in that boot issue, but it charged over 200MB data with no essential benefit. I can not understand why Pioneer does not react. A few looks into forums like this may be motivation enough but.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bitman Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 for me it's unacceptable, especially if i use my wifes car and then later mine. her kenwood kit starts in a couple seconds and about 20 seconds later the gps and phone is ready for use... when i had my merc with the becker that one was even faster. almost instant up and running. so no pioneer did a bad job with the f-series. i'm thinking in over clocking the processor and go through the code to make it faster. what i saw in the code so far is very very bad programming Quote Link to post Share on other sites
