Oke did remove all, and did the follow.

* Downloaded from pioneer web site the firmware AVIC_F710910_APL_3010100_CE_6219

* Copy APL and APL2 from new firmware and add it on my F900BT

* Download from newsgroep's the newest TeleAtlas files, uploaded this on my unit.

* Replace EZRider with hacked one

* Upgraded winceimg to newest version

* Started reboot

All working now, did not add any hacks and also my TMC working.

When i add hacks and replace the data file suddenly TMC in navigation gived no trafic info.

So gues this is the problem and seems with most 3.xxx hacks

But do not need at this moment the trafic info, if needed i remove the updated DATA file.

Breaking it up even further with one question....

I have a F500BT with 2.006 version. I want to be able to use 8.3 version maps on my unit...

This is what i understand after reading the forums and wondering if there is anything i am missing here...

The APL2 folder from 3.0 is available from this link....

is this the right link???

http://itchybot.com/x910bt.zip.torrent.

Also please correc me if i am wrong.... i DONT need to actually update winCE or update my unit to 3.0....i simply do this

1. swap the whole APL2 folder with the one extracted from 3.0 package(from link above).

2. change the sys.txt to set the device type=PIONEER749UC.

3. Put both the generical world license and my original license file in the APL2\IGO\License folder.

4. and put the hacked ezrider.exe from this link

http://rapidshare.de/files/48133221/ezrider.rar.html

and tats it...i run 8.3 maps on my 2.006 f500bt without actually updating to 3.0?

P.S: After reading this last post i am wondering If i have to update my winCE how do i do that to my f500bt...thanks for ur help

So is there a set of instructions on how to update to the latest maps besides google the maps and copy over ezrider or read the sticky thread (dont see it there either)?

 

What instructions do you want? That is all there is to it. Copy over the ezrider, the license file and some maps you want to use. Thats it.

Of course you have to update your whole system to 3.xxxx before doing that. But that is explained again and again in various threads here.

Right, but I see several versions, which do I use, where do i get the right maps what folder do i copy them to?

Did also get it working on 2.07 firmware, just replace the EZRider and licence and add new maps.

Just test some DATA files as when u use the wrong one you unit will reboet itseld time by time.

Today i installed the 3.01 and seems that this one starts faster up so will gona use this one.

But it is working on the 2.07 and even on 2.06 i gues.

Question regaring that torrent file, just download the 3.01 from pioneer site just work fine by mee.

The APL2 folder from 3.0 is available from this link....

is this the right link???

Sorry for the newbie question:

Is it possible that I have a map to 2008 (what I think never use!) and a other Country from 2009in my APL maps folder? It`s running?

Is an other Link for the EZRider 3.0 available?

When I the new EZRider download from rapidshare I have only 8 KB.

You can mix and match maps any way you like. Just check the info screen on the unit to see what you have installed.

Maps are in the APL2 folder, however, not in APL.

You can't route between different manufacturers' maps though.

Are you saying that if I have a Navteq Virginia map and a Teleatlas WV map, that it won't work? I am using both at the moment and it seems to work fine.

One manufactures maps won't route through another manufactures map. In essence, it'll route you around the other manufacturers map file. If you try to route into Virginia from WV it most likely won't give you a route into that state.

I drive VA, WV, MD and PA everyday. So if I use Navteq on all of those states, I will be ok, right?

I just loaded the Navteq maps and I am really happier with those, so I guess the best thing is to just load ALL of the Navteq maps, right?

I have Navteq on my home state and Teleatlas on Ohio, did a simulation route to an Ohio address and it worked fine, so in theory, it does work.

I'm glad it works, I understood that it would'nt work and the short time I had the Navteq I didn't test it. How about doing a route that would go through Ohio?

Just did a route from PA(navteq) to Indiana (teleatlas) through WV (navteq) Ohio (navteq) and worked ok. I am still on planning on loading all of the Navteq maps eventually just so I have them all.

Now should I change any other files..say like the basemap or dem to match the whole map?

basemap should be from the same map provider as the individual maps. From what I understand, dems and poi's can be from mixed sources.

Hmmm... It wasn't supposed to work, according to all I have read about iGO 8.3. Of course we do have a special build, so if it does work, so much the better...

Not sure if it is relevant to the above but , I have noticed that which doing long routes the system keeps doing a route recalculation (even as I drive along long, straight, turn-less roads). I had assumed this to be due to it only holding a percentage of the whole route in memory and was 'phasing' the journey. Perhaps that is why you can mix NT and TA maps together and it still works ???

still waiting for some help so i can use european maps on my f90bt from the u.s.

 

change your data.zip file then reboot problem is solved.

change it to what, or change what in it?

You need the international license file and the hacked ezrider. both files can be found on previous pages of this thread.

ok, which maps will work with these? i want to make sure i get the right ones this time

can i use the old maps i was using with 2.0? the only reason i want this hack is becuase i live in germany but have an american unit. help a brother out!

2.0 was Igo 8.0. 3.x is Igo 8.3. So you should get 8.3 maps. Why use the old ones? Just get the germany.fbl for 8.3 and be done with it.

when using the hacked ez-rider i have the problem, that my unit won't boot up no more. It does not even get to the starup screen. Then when i hit the resetbutton for about 5 seconds several times it finally comes back.

I placed back my backup, without the hacked one and everything is fine again..I'm using the eu 3.01 version.

Replace your old EZRIDER file with this new one in the APL2/IGO folder

Add the World License to your APL2/IGO/License folder. This will not overwrite your old license just add a new one.

yo thanx whoopidoo2

it worked like charm whoooooppiiiii
