My HD Tuner is still working since I bought it in September. My XM tuner constantly dies out during use though, requiring a power cycle :x

Yettavr6 what did you replace to get the 3.0 sounds. Did you replace whole audio folder with the sound folder from the 3.0 Data.zip or just replace certain sounds. Thanks in advance.

I deleted my whole Sound folder and replaced it with the new one. I noticed the Navi sounds are unchanged though, I assume they are in the iGo folder somewhere, probably in the DATA.zip

I've been away from forum some time but soon as I saw this update hack I had to try..

 

ON MY F-700 it works like charm..Key response is way faster..I've lost custom thems from CMH but other mode still stays..

It was little hard to get in to blue screen cause whenever I try to push 4 buttones it'll restart but about ten tries I was able to get into blue screen..and follow the instructions..and after update wince key reponse was already fast er after that copy new APL folder and that was it...

 

now only we can hack new igo and maps...

I got it working on my 7010BT (essentially the same as the 700BT). Although, I was not able to get the steering wheel controls to work the way they should (but that might be more on the connects2 steering wheel interface as opposed to the Avic.

I'm thinking the WinCE included with this update is somehow incompatible with the f700... Has anyone actually got this working on anything but a F900?? I gave up on trying to get mine to work and just reverted back to 2.006

 

I gotta say though the improved key response, fixing the call window, and new maps will be more than worth $60. This coming from someone that bought this thing for full price during the avic411 special at Al-Eds. Now if Pioneer could just make an HD radio tuner that doesn't fail after 3 weeks of use. :wink:

Ya i just copied the the audio folder in the data.zip from 3.0 to the one i'm currently using. Attached is the audio folder for anyone that needs it.

i did this on my 700 key response was quicker but it stayed in the constant reboot even after doing everything like everyone else so i went back to 2.0 :( oh well

For those of you that have it successfully installed on a F700 (maybe F900s have same problem), can you actually watch videos now?

On my F700 with 2.0 they are so choppy its more like a slideshow. If someone could confirm that this works, it would be appreciated.

Does testmode 2.3 work with 3.0 firmware?

Posted Jul 13, 2009 · 06:53 UTC#60

For people have it working on F700BT, do u have the original firmware or the hacked exrider and licenses?

 

Cause I feels like the map is the only thing not wotking. After I did the update, the menu button, av source and setting working fine but the map!!

 

Thanks

I use hacked ez-rider on my f700bt(euro), used the x-series wince and apl and it is working perfectly, i also have a mod on the igo and this still works....

I just copied the new apl folder over the old one(of course i have a backup of my f700 orignal)

 

For the ones with the canadian, are you using the euro update? This could the problem...

Just installed the hacked Ezrider and licenses, working fine with the 2008.4 map. I will give it the 3.0 ce and apl install again in the next couple of hours, I will let everyone know if it's ok.

 

Thanks for all the help

Posted Jul 13, 2009 · 16:04 UTC#67

^ you are reffering to the OLD hacked ezrider, correct? Just want to make sure people don't get confused thinking you have the new one hacked...

Running the Hybrid F/X setup now... Much better!

 

Just need 8.3 and all will be well :)

Does anyone know if testmode 2.3 works with this firmware? Thanks

al you need is the apl2 folder, especially the license and maps, almost everything else is in de x-series update..

Posted Jul 13, 2009 · 19:38 UTC#73

Now, does the ol 8.0 version of Igo continues to work after this update?

 

Thanks

Yes, if you keep the APL2 folder as it is and just copy of the one folder - the iGo 8 still works.

 

Thx,

Ben

so.. we're waiting for a hacked ezrider 8.3 edition to fully complete the X series update?

 

has anyone received the SD card update? maybe we should just img that.. and use that?

 

to anyone who is waiting for one... make an img of the card BEFORE you use it on your unit...

 

just in case it writes to the SD card some sort of serial/protection scheme
