VBLUE42 Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Gooder do you leave off on the map screen when you get out of your car? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MoreGooder Posted May 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Since I know my way around my own town, I seldom ever use the Navi screen. Thus, it's never on when I shut the car down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MoreGooder Posted May 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 I received word from Pioneer that my concerns (1 and 2 on the list) have been forwarded on to product planning. If my concerns are addressed, perhaps there's hope that Pioneer will actually listen to their customers for other bugs and "features" we discover with the Z140BH.

ratcliffe_24 Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 I think we'll need to have a good idea of if the problems are installation related, or actual bugs with the unit. Does RDS data show up on other radios in your area? (Dumb question perhaps). How strong is the signal? Ipod: I nave a Nano, and no problems. What Ipod are you connecting? I can't get the RDS to work on any station. The station signal runs at about 4 bars and comes in clear. My iPod is a first gen touch. I have to unplug just the ear phone jack part and replug it. I called pioneer yesterday and the guy said he will get back to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So you get in the car and when the unit starts it requires you to hit the OK button which then takes you to the map screen? All of this before you can access the iPod screen.

Not trying to piss on your camp fire but we have heard all of that before. But good luck, as bad as they are it is possible they may actually try to improve at some point.

All of this before you can access the iPod screen. No, I get into my car. Ipod screen comes up and plays. Anytime thereafter, if I press Home, the stupid navigation legal BS pops up instead of taking me where pressing the f'ing HOME button should take me. I could go for days without ever hitting the Navi screen and the god damned warning pops up when pressing Home. Its infuriating. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It sounds to me like you have a defective unit. No one else is having this issue that I am aware of. At least, you're the only person reporting it, right? What I'm hoping to achieve from this thread is a list of software bugs that pertain to how the system operates. Installation issues or possible defective units are probably best left off of the bug list I think. Still, I hope your situation gets promptly sorted out by Pioneer.

MoreGooder Posted May 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 When you hit the HOME button what screen are you trying to get to? The HOME screen. Imagine that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JasonH Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 If the unit boots up on the AV screen, you're going to get the warning screen when you switch to home/navi/phone screens. It's been that way forever and it's not going to change. It's not a "bug". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Assuming you're trying to select a different source, have you tried setting up sources in the short cut screen and hitting the MENU button instead? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I may be wrong and I no longer have any of these units but I thought I remember it only displaying if you hit the navi symbol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Nope, now I remember. You're right. I may be wrong and I no longer have any of these units but I thought I remember it only displaying if you hit the navi symbol. That is what would make sense. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
