shaz408 Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 OK I finally got it working on my F700bt US version. BUT I have got following issues: 1. my unit can not detct any SD card ****BIG PROBLEM***** PLEASE HELP *** I can boot my unit using SD card, but when unit is running in its normal state it can not detect SD card 2. I am living in UK so i have downloaded the UK iGO from torrent link given inside this thread. I have changed the files inside the map folder. I have also drag and drop buildings and poi folders, its working good. The only thing I can not figure out is the speed cam stuff. if i copy the contents of speed cam (UK version) I into the speed cam folder (US version that came with this update) and then boot the system, it goes into "system start up progress, please wait" + booting loop state. I will appreciate if some one please shed some lights on the above problem Thanks in advance Regards Shaz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
desinerd1 Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 I recently installed this on my F700-BT. I had installed update 3 before but was having some issues so tried this to start from scratch. Install was very easy and all the updates work as described. Here's my only issue so far (and this was there in my previous 3.0 install too): When I turn on the ignition, sometimes, the unit gets stuck on map mode with the cursor (the little red circle with cross-hair) on it. I can switch to AV screen, but I can't do anything else on the map screen. Even when I press the Map button, the screen doesn't change. Then, after 30 seconds or so everything goes back to normal. Has anyone else experienced this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

acaro Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Is it possible to revert back to 2.0 if this upgrade fails? Is it possible to toast the unit? Are future firmware upgrades possible? What exactly is the worst case risk of doing this upgrade? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
level42 Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 So, I finally got around to trying this upgrade and I got to the WINMCE upgrade or what ever, got to the part where it says reset unit and leave card inside, should boot test mode. Unfortunately not I cant get my device to boot anything. i get the pioneer screen then it goes black, with or without the sd card. any advise? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

demetrios77 Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Hello everyone!! Can this firmware be installed on a EU version F700BT? I am asking because I know the Radio Frequency intervals are different between the USA and EU. Wanted to know before I start messing things up. I have a version 3 working fine.

I know another user who installed a EU FW 3.0202 on his US X710BT, there is apparently no problem in the FM/AM. And there is no problem with the video because the backbone is Windows CE 5.0. No PAL or NTSC to mess with. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So, managed to figure it out. not sure how it happened just sorta got caught playing with old version of wince and new version of wince. Next thing i knew it was working. Any one have questions let me know. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shaver Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 I'm downloading now, and will save onto SD tomorrow. I had the battery changed in my car, and am getting the black screen after my splash-screen image. I hope this cures it...and I'll get an upgrade from 2.0 as well! Great info gang...this may have saved me from another grey hair!! I'll post up results when complete. I feel like I owe the original poster something should this go down.
