kaczman Posted October 2, 2011 Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 Hello All, I bought a F700BT a week or two ago, and I've been reading this forum for a week. Its pretty confusing trying to figure out what to do first - or what to do at all - with all the stickies. I see there are two just for the 3.0 firmware update. I started to take the plunge today, but the Ohio map is missing from the sticky at the top... and I live in ohio. I also see at the end of each 3.0 thread theres 2 or 3 pages of people having problems with their device following the install instructions provided. Does anyone know the latest location of the maps to use, the firmware version, and the proper install instructions? With all the threads and sticky's at the top its hard to decide...

punk3rz Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 This download contains: Windows CE firmware X Series 3.0201 update Complete TA 2009.6 Map Upgrade (USA & Canada) No nag screens POI Branding Speed camera/red light mod Software speed bypass Download: http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/5546342 You need only a single SD card, at least 2gb in size. Copy the entire contents of the RAR file to the root of SD card. You will need to download WinRAR if you don't already have it to open the file. 1. Insert SD card into AVIC and turn it on. 2. When the pioneer logo comes up, press and hold the menu, map, eject and the reset buttons at the same time. When your screen goes completely blank, let go of the reset button but continue to hold menu, map, and eject buttons. This will bring you to a blue screen, telling you to reset the unit (ignore this), you will have to enter the service combination. Press the volume knob in this sequence and you will see * signs for each push: Up, Up, Down, Menu, Left, Right. 3. Select Wince Upgrade 4. Select Update SD Format 5. Wait until it says restart in the bottom center. Reset the unit and leave the SD card in. 6. You should be greeted with testmode (It will look very similar to normal windows). Open Explorer and copy the contents of the "My Flash Drive" Folder from the SD card to the "My Flash Drive" that is located on the unit. Overwrite everything. (It will the copying will take 140min but will only take about 20) 7. Press and hold reset for 5 seconds. (Eject the sd card) 8. Select your language and voice options. 9. Enjoy FX3.1 Tested on AVIC-f90bt. 05/08/10 FAQ: How do I extract this rar thing? http://www.rarlabs.com/download.htm In test mode it says there isn't enough space to copy the files, how come? This means you didn't select the SD format option in step 4, select everything on the "flash disk" and delete it, then copy your new files over How do I know if my download completed properly? The reason I stored everything in the RAR is because Winrar checks to make sure the download is perfect, if it didn't download properly, you would receive an error when extracting. My unit just keeps booting to test mode? Take your SD card out and then reset. Why did my unit take so long to start the first 2 times? That is normal, all the software is adapting to your AVIC Quote Link to post Share on other sites
