djayz Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 Well I tried everything I could think of still no luck, even borrowed a friends SD card which had the WinCE files on it that he used and no luck so I'm pulling the deck and sending it in. Does anyone know if the x910BT uses the same wiring harness as the F90BT? If so I'm just going to go buy one of them while this one's away for warranty repair. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jrubs1 Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 Thank you so much for this fix, it helped and WORKED ! I was having the restart problem after the splash screen problem is gone ! anyone still tying to use this procedure feel free to ask me via PM Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DragonRM Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 I'm having the reboot problem as of 2 weeks ago. Stops for some reason when unplugging the gps. I tried another antenna just in case the wire was pinched with the same issue still happening. Is this fix for that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iondah Posted April 22, 2010 Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 Would appreicate some info in the following questions before I give this a shot: 1. Will the files for the F90BT work on a F900BT? I.e. any change in functionality? 2. Are the files lined to in the OP country speficic? I'm in Australia and won't want to end up with a US unit. 3. How does this work with firmware updated etc? Do they need to be reapplied after restoring? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
davelistro Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 I updated my F90BT last night, and it seemed like it worked properly, however when on start up, My unit says "Start up in Progress Please Wait" and it wont ever go past this. I'm not sure what my next step is? I cant get to "Settings" I also tried to reset and still get the same screen. I am new to this, however savvy enough to figure it out, if I can get some direction. Any help would be appreciated Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DragonRM Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 How do you get into the first screen where you do the file loading... says something about holding the reset button but not sure which one he means. I've tried various combos with no luck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DragonRM Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 Nevermind Thought that was an indicator light for something I never used... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DragonRM Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 OK... back to a problem. I get the wince to boot up fine in test mode now, but it won't recognize the 2 gig usb stick I formatted to fat32 and loaded with the files for the transfer. So now I'm stuck again... try another stick maybe? Anyone have a brand that they know works? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DragonRM Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 Yay! Got it up and running again... didn't have a usb stick that it would recognize so I ended up just making a new folder on the test mode sd card and after it booted up copied the files from that folder over and it seems happy no more reboot with the gps plugged in... now to decide whether or not to upgrade to 3.0 lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
the_fox Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 Hello. I am getting the same problem as described in this post. I would like to follow these instructions to fix my device. I work with IT so should not have a problem doing this. the only problem I have is that I cannot find a backup of the UK version of the f900bt. Would someone please be able to tell me where I can get this backup from so I can try and fix my device. Many Thanks in advance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
reaper2385 Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 I am also having the constant rebooting problem with the f90bt. I ran through the steps, but when i try to load testmode 2.3, the screen turns blank/black in 2-3 seconds. i put AVIC-F90BT Firmware Update 2.0080 on the wince sd card but it doesn't do anything different. Can someone help me plz? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

d1slon05 Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 Iondah - I've got a US unit which I use in Aus. Looking at other threads, it appears both units are physically the same and someone has done a file compare and they are identical. I've upgraded my F700BT to the x910BT firmware 3.0.xxx - works a treat and has made the unit properly usable for the first time. If you need the files please PM me.

doogie Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 Wanted to say "thanks" - recovered a dead F900BT today. Pioneer really should ship these things with a "blow away and restore" SD. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
the_fox Posted May 6, 2010 Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 Please can someone advise me on if I need a different restore file for UK units (due to the UK maps for the Navigation)? Many Thanks Graham Quote Link to post Share on other sites
