tk421 Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 If I can get (temporarily) my hands on an x910bt and copy the my flash directory - would that be of use? No promises, but I may be able to do it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SK360 Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 If I can get (temporarily) my hands on an x910bt and copy the my flash directory - would that be of use? No promises, but I may be able to do it. Yes it already has worked.. that is how some of us have the full update running on our F700/F90's already. I have the full flash backup from a x910bt on my desktop at home and was going to upload it last night, but when I got home comcast had the cable lines in the area down... Internet is back up at home now and I should be able to upload it tonight Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tk421 Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 well, i got it off tacomaboy, and am currently uploading it to the turboss.com server - it'll be under f700/x910bt (as i don't have write access under the home directory, so I can't create a new directory). It's 1.6GB and I can only upload at 100kb/s or so, but it should be there in 4-5 hours! The file is 1,642,312,227 bytes so don't start downloading it till it's done! Again, I take no credit for this - thanks to tacomaboy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Again, I take no credit for this - thanks to tacomaboy What's the process of using this to install on a current F700BT 2.0? Do I need to copy certain files from the SD in test mode, or is this the full update that just needs to have the SD card inserted at boot time? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fred2yu Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Hello folks! And thanks for all the 'hacking' and background work you've done on this 3.0 issue. If it isn't too late, and if it can help, I can provide some server space and access for uploading a reasonable amount of data that could then be available to others to download... In return, would one of you experts consider writing a step-by step guide (for dummies like us) to implement this? I realize that it may seem trivial for most of you folks who play with this a lot, but it is truly confusing to try to reconstruct every key step from the discussion thread, and then apply all this to the unit in the car, particularly if you really only understand some of it, and if you're nervous (like I am whenever I "play" with my F90BT innards) on top of it. I would also be happy to help edit such a guide, if that helps sweeten the deal. It sounds to me that this version 3.0 really is a "must have", if buttons truly react so much better and faster. That is my worst frustration with my unit-- the lag or lack of sensitivity of the touch screen: sometimes I wind up having to press 3-4 times before it seems to recognize the commands...

MattsSS Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Any chance on getting my F500 up to date? http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/ ... CNSD-150FM I asked a few pages ago with no responce. I doubt it though as the F500BT has different SW than any of the in dash models do, and there is no X variant of it. We will have to get the actual 3.0 update, not an X series OS copyover. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
