bmvee Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Does anyone know if these update works for Canadian units too? I got mine at Future Shop.It does say US units only but I have Canadian and American maps so I thought maybe Pioneer considers Canadian units to be the same thing as American. Thanks. There is no difference between US and Canadian units... go for it! Mine updated just fine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
time4akshun Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Great update. Most noticeable: 1. Faster boot up 30 secs 2. Touch screen controls much more sensitive. Can we delete all the extra files this thing put on the SD cards I assume? Time Quote Link to post Share on other sites
danieldelgado29 Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Has anyone notice a lag in GPS...Like your on freeway and avic says get on the free in 1000ft. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
achi10 Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 No, no lag, but just disappointed that the TTS voice hasn't been updated to be friendlier to one's ears and more accurate when speaking street names. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cozmo85 Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Bestbuy called me this morning to let me know there was an update lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ckelly33 Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Using the contacts, is their communication between apps, like can you choose one of your contacts and choose to route to it via the GPS? Or better yet, can you use the vioce command to do this (much as you would to dial a contact)? Trying to decide how much benefit I'd get from an upgrade from the D2 to the 90BT.

recognize Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I have a mac and I tried to decompress it but it only has the option to compress it ...the file LPUE080 is 262.4 MB does that mean it is decompressed? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brink094 Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 On a Mac, just double click to extract it or choose 'Open with > Archive Utility'. There should be a Folder called LPUE080, not a file! The LPUE080 folder from my european 1.9 update is exactly 262.4Mb in size and contains 526 items. You could also try a tool like Stuffit Expander if you still have problems. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SaabScott Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Just did the updates on my 700. Worked like a charm. However, I'm finding that I still can not sync my phonebook from my Motorola V551. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Unless you've made changes to your system preferences, recent Mac operating systems automatically decompress archived downloads and place them in your selected download folder. The original zipped file is automatically placed in the trash (which is good to know if you actually need the compressed file). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
recognize Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 thanks guys, good to know macs automatically decompresses, no wonder it only has the option to compress... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
recognize Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 hey guys, just installed the system. one thing i noticed was when you start up, it first opens the map therefore asking you to press ok... is there an option that when the start up occurs it can go to menu first instead of map? also has anyone tried to do any mods in this new firmware?

The system boots up to the screen you were veiwing when you shut it down. So if you don't want to boot up to the map switch your screen to the AV source you're listening to before you shut off the vehicle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
braddman Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 I thought everything was working better until today when my 80gb IPOD locked up completely. I had to hard reset it. Now everytime I power on the F90 it doesn't see the IPOD until I disconnect and reconnect the cable. Wow am I glad I spent my money on this POS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MR. WOMO Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 I installed my F90 unit this past weekend. Matched it up with the XM tuner and the HD radio tuner. I updated the system to the 2,0 version straighaway. It plays EVERY AV source flawlessly. The GPS system is great, and I am having a fantastic time with all the wonderful features. Wow! I am glad I chose to spend my money on this versatile, quality headunit! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
