I agree... The improvements are negligible, but cmh's mods work and Leetlauncher still works. So, I think it's worth the 30 minutes it takes to upgrade.

You guys must be doing something wrong if the improvements are negligible. My improvements are like night and day all button responses are much quicker from the minute I can touch the buttons(with unit still loading). I can now type in a address without having to stop and wait for it to load. Im starting to think every unit is diff. because I have been completely satisfied since the day I bought it with 1.0 on it. Now I absolutely love it with a 45 second boot up time and absolutely zero lag on the button response, not to mention all the mods available for it. My fricking Garmin took atleast 30 seconds to load and that was just GPS, no radio, bluetooth, etc.

I just updated mine and I also see an improvement and I am still using cmh's mod with it. Looks the same and definately faster than it was.

Definite thumbs up! Big time improvement, maps, tap recognition, etc.! WELL WORTH IT!

one guy punched the screen in.

 

How Childish...

not childish at all as i almost hammered my screen too when running the older firmware versions.

the deck sold as it was (before version 3) wasn't working correctly not even with the version 2 updates.

and what i find the biggest thing is with a simple WinCE update it runs like it should be from day one. why could this not being done before? and why is this in a pay package? why could they not creating a free version 3 OS only update?

sure now we have a way to do this but still lots of folks out there don't know how to do it what is logic as not every body can or will just hack his or hers deck.

bt

Did anyone tried "Restore to factory default" or "Delete User Setting" from the new APL?

Why I ask is because I still have Restore to Factory in the Navi setting menu plus the new one in system setting screen.

Thanks

Applied the 3.0 update and kept all of my IDT mods. Thank You. Only one small issue. Why does my F90 always go to the SD card at boot no matter what the last AV source was before shutdown? Any thoughts?

i think that it's the way this deck boots to allow booting from a SD Card

It didn't do that with version 2. It always went to the last input in use before shutdown.

I tried this a few times but no luck. Maybe I am doing something wrong. Updated winCE and copy over the APL folder and the "System starting up" doesn't go away. Also map doesn't work anymore. I am from Canada, not sure if theres a difference between the US and Canadian system.

It was much faster with the winCE update but map didn't work so had to install 2.006

Did you replace ezrider in the APL2 / IGO folder with the hacked ezrider?

Cool thanks so much! I got the winCE update to work but after moving over the APL folder the system would just stay at the splash screen. After replacing with the old APL folder everything was working again. I am happy with it now since its much faster then before!!

I did this mod and it works fine.

Now when I try to use testmode, I can't get in.

I'm using the lastest version of it too.

Hi. I'm a long time lurker. Finally got something meaningful to pass along. I did the WINCE upgrade today.

Two problems that irritated me the most were 1) Slow key response - which was alleviated by renaming some wav files, and 2) VBR MP3 song ends abruptly before the end of the song.

The WINCE upgrade fixed both of these problems. Now, key response is quick. Scrolling is quick. VBR MP3 songs on the SD card are playing normally. I haven't tried using the USB drive or playing videos, yet.

I guess Pioneer wasn't the problem here. I should have known better that it was Micro$oft.

I own an AVIC F700BT.

PS. For the guy having problem run testmode v2.3, make sure to copy the folder "testmode" onto the root of your SD card. I ran into the problem when I just copied the contents of the folder.

Did the quick WinCe update and reformat update but the Wince version is still 5.0 when I looked at system info going through testmode.

Thought the update was to 6.3, can someone that updated verify the version of WINce please

newest license is in this pack, works with the 2009.02 maps, is a generic world license

i'm not sure if that helps us or not.. come to think of it... don't we just need a patched ezrider... not so much the lisc file?

Depends on the patch. The ones Ive seen so far just enabled Igo to accept other licenses. So you did have to provide one.

all of these developments are great. I'm thinking of setting this all up on my 700BT this weekend.

Can someone post a step-by-step setup so that we can print it out and have it handy in the car?

While we do need both patched iGO and license file for new maps to work, this one does absolutely nothing for us because it's regular iGO, not EzRider.

lame..sorry for the wasted post
