shaker281 Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 I have a F900BT and just performed to 3.0 update and It seems to be OK. I have a few questions. 1. I see there is no 3.02 update on the Pioneer site for F900BT, but a 3.0201 for the F910BT. Are people applying 3.0201 to their F900BTs? What value is it? 2. What map version is this unofficial 3.0 equipped with? Is it 2009.06 TA? Exactly, how can you determine this? BTW, I was able to perform the update using a single 1 Gb SD card. I just removed the "Map" folder (from (/igo/content) and copied over everything else. Popped out the SD card and deleted all but testmode and then copied back and pasted the "map" folder to "/igo/content" directory. FWIW. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shaker281 Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 I should add that my "Map Version" under System Information says 2.000300. Are there more up-to-date US Maps? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zoidbort Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Just bought the F90BT off eBay so I would love to do this "update" but the links are dead for the 3.0 file. Any new links or can someone host it by chance? Cheers! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
djpez2001 Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 thanks everybody for all the information posted here, without it I would not have been able to update my AVIC. I did have some problems updating as many of you have had, the rebooting every five minutes, the freezing of the maps, and the system startup banner not going away, but thankfully I was able to fix it. I am not certain what the problem was, but I believe when I tried to do the speed mod on my mac that's when the problem started. In order to correct I erased everything from My Flash Disk/USER/UserData/iGo/Save on the AVIC. I also erased everything from My Flash Disk/USER/UserData/iGo/SETUP also on the AVIC. The original DATA.zip file from the download I do not think it was corrupted, but when I unzipped to modify the speed settings and then zipped it back up...something must have happened that corrupted the file and my unit would not read it properly, so I reloaded on the AVIC just the DATA.zip and everything was ok after rebooting. But like I said, everything is running fine and I got 3.0 update on my unit. Thanks for all the good information guys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If your seeing the test mode, after you removed the SD card and after the reset then you copied the entire SD card to your unit. Start the process over and only copy the CONTENTS of the "My Flash Disk" folder on the SD Card to the "My Flash Disk" drive on your unit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
