Anyone happen to know if they made it pause your ipod/iphone when you get phone calls now? This is a real annoyance for me, as I like to listen to audiobooks. If I get a call there is no way to pause it, since the call menu pops up in front of the ipod "buttons" 
means I have to rewind back to where I was each time.

Hasn't it always paused the music?
Maybe it's just on the iPhone (because that function is handled automatically by the iPhone when a call comes in), but my music always gets paused when a call comes in. I'll try it with my Nano later to see if that works too.
No it hasn't, and no, the update didn't fix the problem. It still does not pause the ipod when a call comes through.
What's the deal on the software bypass? Someone on the last page said that it's not working for them, but another person said that it is?

Exactly what I was wondering. Also, I'm a little confused - what is the difference between the software bypass and the hardware bypass? The hardware bypass allows you to watch video (among other things) while in motion, correct?
Software bypass still works,i tried in person and no problem! just do the update and then do the same data.zip braking speed trick. it will work.
Both the software and the hardware bypass accomplish the same thing, they just go about it in different ways.
The software bypass DOES work. I did it yesterday, ony day after applying the 2.0 update. For those of you who are having problems... did you ground the parking brake? or at least, are you applying the brake just enough to make the "brake" light come on but not all the way (as to actually engage the brake). Either one of those two is necessary to get the bypass to work. The modification you make to the value (from 16 to 128) is only to raise the speed threshold upon which the AVIC will determine that the car is moving and give you the nasty warning. But the mechanism combines speed sensing and parking brake status. I hope this clarifies it for those people who still had doubts. Good luck!
For those who like to drive fast, 256.0 works as well... It probably can go ршпрукбь but if you are watching videos at 256/1.6=160 Mph you probably should ont be driving anyway

Completely OT, but also completely agreed! At that point, though, the software engineer in me wants to know if they typed the 'current speed' variable using an 8-bit unsigned integer (meaning an integer between 0 and 255 inclusive). I'm not quite willing to go above ~160 to find out. Maybe someday I will (on a track, of course), though anything above 130mph gets my nerves really on end. In the unlikely event that I do, I'll let everyone here know what the resulting speed read via GPS is.
Has anyone tried values larger than 256? I've used the hardware bypass, so it's not up to me to tell.
The pioneer.ini file was there and so was the =16 on the parking brake line. I changed mine to 256, but if it is an unsigned integer, then I should back that off to 255.
Secondly... I tried the fix to add the button to turn the voice nav on/off and it failed. I originally used his entire data.zip file, but this time, worried that there might be some updates to the code in the data.zip file, I just inserted the lines for the voice nav on/off and the lines to change the compass to a 'cancel route' button. Neither worked.
Here's my question... has anyone check to see if functionality is impared if we use the data.zip file we modified from the pre 2.0 version???

I think I've read of somone using 300 there, but the fact that the original value is entered as 16.0 not just 16 suggests to me that it is not an integer, but probably a float...
For me, its a 'belt and suspenders' thing because I already did the hard wire fix ... just doing the parking brake number just in case....
Contact names remained unchanged for me and no additions of "mobile" "home" etc.. I also cleared the memory on the unit then transfered the phone book again, but no change... BTW I am AT&T w/ Motarola V3xx
I was really hoping this would be fixed
The reason all of your contact info is not going over is because only the "Primary" number (AVIC calls this "General") is sent over by the phone. A way to fix this is to change how your phonebook is organized. Instead of having 3 numbers for John Smith in one contact name. Have one as John Smith Home, one as John Smith Mobile and one as John Smith Work. I realize this is a PITA, but will get you going untill you can get a new phone. BTW, I have the same phone and went through the same PITA.
anyone have a firmware 2.0 file already setup and decompressed?

What do you mean already setup and decompressed? There's nothing to setup, and decompressed it's 367MBs. Just download and extract it.

So the speed entered is actually divided by 1.6? If so than that explains why I thought the software bypass was not working for me after the update, because yesterday is the first time i went over 80 since installing my AVIC. I'll try 256 instead of 128.
I have both hardware and software bypasses done. Works just fine. Watched part of Iron Man while getting food.
You were watching a movie AND eating while driving?!?! LOL, jk 
Dont know if it was said, but i installed 2.0 today on my f700BT.
End Results:
-VR catologing took 2 mins. 
"Have 3900 songs"(with old update it stopped working)
-Quicker Boot-up by 20 seconds.
-Faster button response
-Bluetooth seemed to work better didnt really test it though.

Please, I have seen IronMan so many times its not funny, Testing my iPhone and also letting my car stretch its legs a little bit.
Kinda hard to watch when getting slammed back in your seat ROFL 
I just joined the site so hello everyone. I upgraded from a D3 to a Avic F when it first came out. I kinda wish i kept the D3.
I also just installed the 2.0 update for my Avic F. noticed a couple things. They have removed the fade feature or maybe there is another way to enable the fade feature.
There are grey buttons that i cant seem to turn selectable, not grey.
They removed the blue boxes which is a great improvement. but they still leave the little box in the lower left hand side that shows all zeros. It would be nice if they were to remove this all so. it only serves a purpose when you have a destination programmed in.
I also have a blackberry curve and it still doesnt connect as it should.
This is just my two cents.
Oh yea what ever happened to the bluetooth audio? I kinda miss that.
I believe i saw somewhere that if you turn off "full screen cockpit" somewhere in the options that the box in the lower left will disappear too. Haven't tried that though. I was just wondering about the bluetooth audio myself too. I used it to get Sirius on my D3. Instead of getting an additional subscription I would just stream it on my phone using my premium online account. Actually sounded better than the satellite broadcast 
After updating the 2.0 error and folowing the instructions perfectly, I went to the next step and got this error "Bluetooth software is not found. Please put it on SD/USB. Any ideas? I reformatted the SD card and loaded the update on it again, but no joy.
it's two separate downloads...put both on the root of the SD card...watch the youtube video posted on this site, it shows it exactly the way should b done..
