S4 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Well if this works and custom FW are possible this will become a whole new ballgame. That's what I like to hear for sure. This unit could easily become a homebrew device of choice for in car computing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

S4 Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 This procedure actually doesn't work on mine. Unit resets and goes into this weird mode where all LED's flash constantly but Avic functions properly. Anyone else tried or care to try? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bad HAL 9000 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Does anyone know what type of CPU the F series uses? If it is ARM or x86 I plan on pulling it apart. Reverse engineering is a hobby of mine and this sort of thing will be easy to find (the proper code) Mine gets in tommorow so hopefully I can start breaking it soon.

Bad HAL 9000 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Outstanding, as soon as I get it I will do a rom dump and start up IDA. * Can't wait! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FourG Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 Why wait for it to get to your door? You could check out this thread to find the FTP site jbhardling set up with backup images, etc. av.exe, systemsetting.exe, mainmenu.exe and shell.exe in the flash disk's APL folder are probably useful to look at for the Pioneer system calls and how they use their DLLs.

Bad HAL 9000 Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 I already got my system, i did dumped the file system but that is as far as I have gotten right now. I am still doing some of the standard hacks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
markostilo Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 when you enter a code and join me after a few seconds, the screen we black and not responding. if you happened to?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xJ2Mx Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 The code is: up up down menu left right - i did not find this, someone else did on these forums but it applied to the F90BT model. It works on the BT700-Series 2.0 Firmware upgrade [Confirmed] It lists menu options and has a tools option as well. My unit after about 10-15seconds from entering the code to my option selection goes all black including the buttons. This is as far as i have gotten and am wondering if anyone else can go further including keeping the screen from dimming? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paQ Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 It seems to me though that it isn't as.... uhm... good as we hoped it would be? here's 'the list' of chapter 6 of the service manual: Test mode menu1 Audio Playback of audio 2 AV Test Not for service 3 TEL Test Not for service 4 GPS CHK GPS receiver test 5 GYRO Gyro test 6 Flash ROM Flash ROM read/write test 7 TMC/VICS FM multiplex error test 8 Dir CMD Not for service 9 Graphics Graphics test 10 Ver Info Display version information of software, mecha, and microcomputers. 11 Touch Correction and test of Touch Panel 12 Key Test Not for service 13 Port Test Display states such as parking and reverse. 14 Voice Test Not for service 15 Memory Not for service 16 MSN-Direct Not for service 17 USB Test Not for service 18 DTV Test Not for service 19 SD Test SD card test 20 EQ Flat/Vo Not for service 21 RGB Illumin Not for service 22 BT Test Not for service 23 Screen Not for service 24 BAK CTL Adjustment of the LCD backlight Edit: I purchased the service manual. I'll keep you posted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paQ Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Nothing is described in the manual of the mentiod service menu in this topic. HOWEVER! The manual mentions two service methods we (as far as I can see) did not know about; 1. uBOOT 2. Test CD. with uBOOT onoe is able to test AND set BT, GPS and update the windows version (!) Also it states "5. other tools" The manual doesn't specify what is in option 5. When I read on, I come across the test CD thing. It here states a 'good' result and a 'Not Good' result. The example used here for not good, is a model UC tried to be implemented as EW. Also when I look at the lay outs of the PCBs, every PCB is addressed as both EW5 and UC models. Making UC and EW models identical ??? now.. where can we get hold of this uBOOT thing? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Does it then display this screen? edit: Just found the link to the service manual already mirrored somwhere here (hehehe... waste of money, but OK) Nothing special in the uboot either?
