hqp921 Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Recently (a couple months ago), my unit (F90BT) would turn on, get to the splash screen, and then go blank. The buttons would also turn off, so for all intents and purposes, the unit was off, though you could hear it humming. The last update was 2. something... I tried the directions as in the first post of this thread, and can only get to #9... at that point, the unit boots up in test mode, where you are in Windows, but it stays there for only a second or two before the screen going blank, and the buttons all turning off. I've tried different WINCEIMG.bin and WINCEIMG.cks, including the ones directly from Pioneer. Can anyone help? - HP Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dineau Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 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? Has anyone figured how to get out of this loop ? I'm having the same issue with a F90BT and regardless of the version of testmode I use or even with the Pioneer 2.00800 upgrade the unit is only loopig to the Pioneer screen and re-boot... Please help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Can anyone help? - HP i had that same problem, it would go to the windows screen then turn off right, what i read somewhere else is to 1. start the car, 2. on pioneer start logo click and hold the reset and eject button at the same time, after 5 seconds let go of the reset button continue holding the eject button for about 3 more seconds, then let it go, that worked for me, after i tried this way it then stayed on the window screen without turning off Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nismobones Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 Ok so when I started copying the files from the jump drive to the flash drive all was good till about 65%-70% then it started giving me "cannot access file- abort, retry, ignore" Any ideas why? Did I not do something right along the way? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jldeleon Posted July 3, 2010 Report Share Posted July 3, 2010 How do you copy files from the USB to the f90? I made it all the way to the copy files from USB. Now I'm pulling out my hair. Please let me know how this is done. Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
narcolept Posted July 3, 2010 Report Share Posted July 3, 2010 Click "Edit" from the menu in the explorer window..? I'm sure you can figure out the Copy/Paste/Select All sequence, right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

narcolept Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 Hey what are the GCL916 steps?? I'm having the same problems Really? You responded to a thread to ask what the steps are in the first post of this thread? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jldeleon Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 Well this almost worked. I had to copy past from SD. No problem. Restarted the f90 and fount it turns on and does not restart at all. Great but will not load music or navigation at all. Like something is missing from the backup files. Anyone have any advice? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
