I have a few issues with this.....

 

2008 GMC Sierra

F700 with 2.0 update

Blackberry 8830 phone

 

*Sometimes it freezes at the map disclaimer screen. Only way to get around it is to power down, then back on.

*Reverse camera sometimes stays on 10-15 seconds after it's switched out of reverse, sometimes its faster.

*Bluetooth is slow, if it even works. I dial a number and sometimes it mutes the radio immediately, sometimes the person has already answered and is about to hang the phone up before it comes through on the speaker.

*Won't disconnect phone call sometimes. I press end either on the phone or the head unit, nothing happens. Screen is frozen, no audio, can only disconnect the BT on the phone by disabling it.

 

Any ideas?

Welcome to the wonderful world of the pioneer f-series... The unit is "working as intended".

 

Take a look around the site, you are not alone. The more you use it, the more bugs you'll find.

Kind of what I figured. The D3 was much better than this crap. I guess I thought there was some false hope of at least part of it being fixed or changed in some kind of update.

If I dont get mine returned, I imagine its getting thrown through someones window.

mine does this too!! any solutions? the unit will play my Ipod and I can change songs and change the volume but it will not respond to any touch on the screen, it usually gets stuck at the map disclaimer and I cannot press because it will not respond.

anyone?

 

I get the impression nobody's answering freezing questions. Bummer. I wish there was someone with answers.
