Reverting Back To 2.0 — AVIC411 Forum Archive

Just as a CYA precaution, what is the procedure to go back to V2?

Do I save the WINCE files for the older version and go back through the setup procedure as if I was updating the unit to 3.0 but instead using the V2 winceIMG and test mode files?

Thanx,

Bud

Yup, I don't know exactly how you would "save" ur WinCE files from 2.0, but if you had a copy of them, then yes, you'd install the WinCE from 2.0, then copy the 2.0 MyFlashDisk over...

Sorry..I meant a saved copy of each which I have ALOT of from my numerous backups that I have saved. I CONSTANTLY save my flash drives.

Can't be too careful but stepping into the realm of 3.0 gets me a little worried so I just want to protect my "comfort zone"

Thanx!

you wouldn't need the old WinCE to go back to 2.0

before 3.0 people were doing the WinCE upgrade on 2.0 because it made the unit more responsive

I am going back to 2.0 also

Does not work for me just hangs up on system starting. Tried several 2.0 backups.

So then it is just a matter of blasting the "My Flash Disk" version of 3.0 and replacing it with the saved 2.0 version?

I'm just going to stick it out and wait for more mod's for 3.0 to come out.... I really like the lane layouts on the 3D view and the bluetooth screen being offset.....

So far, I am not impressed but like I said it is still early. As far as response time I honestly think my 2.0 was faster as far as screen taps go. I really don't like the fact that I get absolutely no street names in 3D mode unless I am zoomed up to 200 ft . I did change the clip_planes roadsigns value in the default schemes to "roadsign = 0,1,50,0,1000" and this helped but I had to add it to the individual files. I'll work on it more.

For now I am going to blast V3.1 and revert back to my previous iterration until I can sort out some more quirks and hopefully I can add some mods of my own and willingly share them as I go.I have to use it alot and can't really be screwing with it. I'll try again this weekend when I have more time.

Definitely disappointed thus far but we'll get it!

I referted back to 1.0 to do a clean 3.0 update. it hangs on system startup then, just like 2.0 doesn't work with new wince, then you need to put the 3.0 apl folder on it, then it works.
