here's what you need to do,

1) search for hacked ezrider.exe,

2)once you've downloaded the hacked ezrider, boot into testmode and go into myflashdisk/apl2/igo and put the hacked ezrider there, be sure to back up your original ezrider,

then go into contents/maps and put your mexico map in there, and that's it,

hi, im new to this im trying to add a UK map on to a US model of the avic f90bt, iv got the test mode files and the igo8 files on a sd card, i put the sd card into the machine boot it up it copies the files then once its finished it goes away but leaves a green box behind. i then try to go to start all progs then exploror but it seems to crash and i cant close the copy screen down to see the desktop what ever i seem to click either leaves a green box behind it or crashes the system

 

any help would be great also im new to this got the unit yesterday had a look last nite for a few hours and need some help.

 

just a few questions if people dont mind thanks,

 

is the igo8 software an updated of the original navigate maps already on the system ?

 

what do i actaully need to add a uk map is it the same as tom tom you just write over the existing maps on the system folder with the ones i want and it will change them ?

the maps i have found on the net are named "UnitedKingdom8_2008.04_080526" is this correct for uk maps ?

To install the maps do i have to be in testmode or can you do it from the standard screen which it loads ?

 

last question, the igo8 prog lanuncer is this instead of the origianl front end software which came with the unit or is it used to add items to the pionner software already installed

 

Thanks agian for all your help if you can email me post in here be so greatfull my email is [email protected]

 

Thank again sebastian

Absolutely awesome GUGA!

 

I'm also from Brazil, and I've been looking for this unit since it was released, but always wondered if the GPS would work over here in Brazil.

 

If you don"t mind I would like to get in touch with you through email so we can share some infos about all the process.

 

Thanks!

Hi Guga,

I'm from Brazil and I don´t know how to use the navigation of my avic f900bt. I put the avic in testmode but then didn't kwon what to do.

- you ask to dowload and install leet`s launcher. (I dowloaded it but I don't know how to install)

- you ask to enter the Igo8 directory then copy the contents files dowloaded. (I copied but i don't know where should i past it)

-and the last question if thereis Brazil maps in this Igo8>

 

Thank you!

Hello,

 

I thought I would revive this topic, now that we have fw 3.0 available.

The question would be: once an F900BT US unit is upgraded to fw 3.0 (that is actually for X910 :) ), it will have US maps on it. How do we make it accept European maps, like it used to be the case for fw 2.0?

To my knowledge, nobody hacked into ezrider.exe yet, so it cannot be convinced to run unlicensed maps.

 

The workaround for this would be to install the old iGo 8.0 (from fw 2.0) - in this way, we would have the benefits of having an upgraded and more responsive system, but stick with iGo 8.0 for now.

The question is how to do that? So far, I have been able to upgrade the system to fw 3.0 with no problem, the GPS position would show, but of course, in the middle of nowhere, as I live in Europe :roll:

I tried to replace APL2 folder with the one from fw 2.0, but the unit won't go into map mode and reboots itself after 1 min or so. Obviously something is bothering it.

So: do I need to replace APL folder as well?

It will work if you replace the ezrider in your APL2 with the one hacked for 2.007, its on here somewhere, I had the same problem and this fixed it.

Yes, that's the solution that I had already installed: fw 3.0, then replace ezrider with the hacked one from previous fw (iGo 8.0) and 8.0 Europe maps.

That way, we get the benefits of the new fw (faster response, working remote controls on wheel, better sound), but still stick with the "old" iGo and maps 8.0 - until someone will "do" the new ezrider.

Looking forward to that!

Hi,

 

I'm a noob here and want to ask some questions, i've tried to find the answer in the forums but couldnt.

So, I've downloaded the LeetLaucher and it has lauched properly on my F900, but i couldnt load the map on Igo, probaply because of version issue.

 

After that, i had updated my F900 Firmware to the 2.06 version, and after that i could not load the leetlauncher anymore. Did that happen because i had updated my firmware or am I doing something wrong?

 

If I updated the firmware and souldn`t, is there anyway for me to get back to an older version? if yes, how? or does this laucher works on this FW version too?

 

Thanks a lot.

Being as LeetLauncher is for F-Series AVIC's, I'd start with questioning really hard how do you expect it to work on AVH-9201N (which doesn't even seem to be a Pioneer product) in the first place...

If it runs WindowsCE _and_ it is possible to get into Windows shell, then may be. Otherwise, no.

Hi, i'm an italian f900bt user; i've a question: it's possible to substituting completly the pioneer NavGate navigation software whit igo8? I've substituted my igo in APL2 folder whit igo8 (and i've renamed it "igo"), when i restart my f900bt unit and touch "destination", igo8 software starts corretly but there is a permanently message about like this:" System startup in progress, pleas wait"...Maybe i've committed some error in substituting...Can anyone help me?? Thank's!

Posted Nov 14, 2009 · 22:37 UTC#69

Please help:

 

I've got Pioneer AVIC f900bt apparatus (Hungary), her 2005 version.

I would like to replace the maps, but I do not know what to do and how to solve.

Thank you for your help!

Posted Dec 26, 2009 · 22:31 UTC#70

Just wondering... Wouldn't the reverse of what Brian is describing also be possible? If I upgrade my F90BT to 3.02 using the download from the Pioneer EU web site, shouldn't I be able to then add the IGo US/Canada maps back into the unit this way? (In Testmode using the Windows CE UI)

Thanks,

Ray
