So... its been awhile... a long while.. I bought my f700bt in 2008 and thats when I was most active on here. This site was awesome for helping me out with my install and other upgrades. Since then I have not had one... honestly... not one problem with my unit. It is pretty much stock... had only the 2.0 firmware update. So anyways... since I have been away from the site for awhile... and out of the loop on pioneers newer nav units... I was wondering.. whats the newest great thing out there? Im hopefully getting a new ford truck soon and if I dont get it with fords nav unit I would want to

Well Im pretty confused!! Its been awhile since I have been on this site and I havent done anything to my 700bt! Is this version "4" upgrade available for my head unit? And if so can it be done without the 3.0 versions installed first?

Thanks oneloud... I will defently have to try that?

Well I have had my f700 for well over a year now... never had a problem ever... I am still on 2.0 Yesterday I noticed my phone wasnt set for bluetooth so after I hung up on a call I turned the bluetooth back on. When it connected to the avic you hear a small pop and the sound is lost. I turned the truck off and on a few times and it happend each time. When I was driving I turned my bluetooth on my phone off and the sound came back? What do think I should do? Will a update fix this... hmm Thanks in advance for anyone who replies.

Well then...off to google I go!! lol...Thanks Vblue

Hey guys.... I have been reading past threads here for a few days trying to find some info on the ipod and being able to watch video through it. I found a guy on you tube that has it working flawlessly but he has a mac and uses the program "handbrake" to convert the videos to be able to play on the 700. Does anybody know what would be a similar program to use since I dont have a mac computer? Here is the link for the video... it looks great!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SgtdJynP3HE

I have seen a guy that has a video on you tube showing his f700 playing full widecreen video through his ipod! Looks like it works really well. I have left him a comment asking him what he uses to convert videos!!

Well I finaly fixed the problem awhile ago... turns out my ipod was corrupted and I had to do the hard reset in disk mode!! WOrks good now.... Just never unplug until you eject it!!!

I wonder too. I just placed an order. Tested "unofficial" 3.0 and 3.01 here in Edmonton, Canada and I'm not impressed with the maps update. For some reason all Provincial highways are referred to as KINGS HWY (That's a name they used to have in Ontario in the past). For Example Queen Highway 2 is being called KINGS HWY 2, Yellowhead Highway 16 is called KINGS HWY 16, Anthony Henday Highway 216 is called KINGS HWY 216. etc.... Very, very annoying! I hope they sorted it out in the "Canadian" update. Are the township roads and range roads still showing up as unnamed road near edmonton??

no ones had this problem??

Has anyone had the problem of itunes freezing up when you plug your ipod in the usb to sync it??? I wanted to put more songs on it but everytime i plug it in, it freezes itunes up and it it wont unlock until you pull the usb cable out of the computer? I have read where one guy said to go to my computer and pick Ipod, then go into it and reformat! Does anyone have any opinions on this!! Thanks

Thats not the 3.0 update... they just copied whats on the website right now for 2.06

I dont see why your calling him a ass....he even gave you a link ffs... anyways... no maps are free unless its a promotion!!!

Here we go again.... In order for the new maps to work, you need the new firmware!!! Please read before posting... you guys all look like idiots when you do this!!!

There is no forum yet because the unit isnt out yet!!!
