ok after doing this update to my 700bt

how can i get the buildings to show up?

Also how can i change the red gps arrow ? maybe my car or something

worked perfectly with my 700. seems snappier now too. thanks!

Thanks for this, just updated my F90BT and seems to be quite a bit better.

Thanks to you for making it so easy for all of us too scared to screw something up. Kudos!

I'll be seeding for probably months...

I just put this on my x910bt

 

So far so good.. I'll have to play with it more when I get a chance...

 

Does anyone have a problem with x710bt? My units had the latest SW and MAP, but had a rebooting problem lately. Hence, I tried update WINCE as well as other mods, but not able to bring the unit up after complete the update procedure here.

I followed all the instruction, format, and copied all contents to "My Flash Disk" wihtout an issue, but my unit shows an error message as below after reset;

"Fatal Application Error"

Application AV has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. If the problem persists, contact the program vendor.

Program: AV

Exception: 0xC0000005

Address: 02BD56F4

 

Can someone help me what to do?

This problem fixed after copy over the entire content to the "My Flash Disk".

Installed without issue.

Thanks for the image.. Gotta say though, it's too bad you can't build the .RAR to make everyone pass a basic cognition test to extract it though..

According to Chuck88 running this update does not upgrade WinCE to the latest version (6). That would really be the only reason to run this update if you already had the 3.0201 (US) FW. I was pondering running this for the WinCe upgrade, but if there is no upgrade to WinCe, then no need to run it. That would be the next great project... figuring on how to upgrade to a better base OS. A windows 7 WinCe is in the works now. Anyone figure out how to upgrade to WinCe 6?

Ahh hi now i understand what you meant

 

but I iked this mod because it semed simple to install .. whereas finding the individual mods is confusing.

 

so you have recommended links that has just the mods ?

 

thankjs

 

Sorry Nicholas to miss your post ... There are many great mods on this forum, I personally preferred "Abb's Chrome Nav Mod" that was based on IDT's. You can go here to find out how to implement the mod and schemes and Chrome theme: http://www.avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=31509

Good lucks.

See red editing above!!!

You DON'T need to run the WinCE OS update if your already have FW 3.0201 (US) or 3.0202 (Europe). In this case, all you have to do is to implement Nav. Mod found from this forum, such as this one: http://www.avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=31509.

With those latest FW, Pioneer provides only WinCE 5.0. And I am certain that nobody could provide you with WinCE 6, except Pioneer. And by the time when MS releases WinCE 7, your AVIC is pretty much reaching the end of life product status , so just forget new FW from Pioneer with WinCE 7.

Thanks a thief I had to replace my F700 with a X710 and I was wondering if this software will work on a X710? I saw where it said the mods for the X was the same as the F but I just want to be sure.

I do have a back up camera, will that be an issue?

Will this make it so that the passenger can put in addresses etc while we are moving.

This is what I woke up to last Friday .......

Wankers, I hate thief's.

answered my own question by searching again. not sure what I did wrong the first time but it would never pull back.

so it does work on an x710. This would be my first attempt at installing anything on my unit, any thing to be careful of or just follow the directions closely and all will be fine?

one last question before I start this. I have always backed things up before trying stuff like this. Is there a way to do that or do you just go get the stock firmware from pioneers site and use that if things go badly.

Can you brick one of these things?

I've been trying to install this on my f700bt, but when i get to the blue screen and select update sd format, i get an error message that says update failure or some such, anyone know what the problem is?

i've copied all the files to the sd card, and it's formated in fat32, unzipped with winrar. tried it many times with the same problem each time.

sdmmc update failure.

any suggestions??

Try a different SD card..

yeah i tired a couple different cards. all formated fat32. is there anything specific i need to do to format it? or copy the information onto the card?

Hey guys I just want to let everyone know I am still around just exceptionally busy

Ok heres my issue Every time I press up up down menu left right... I go into the blue screen. then i click upgrade then SD "format" it goes to about 30% THEN THE RADIO SHUTS OFF... My question is WTF?

Do your speakers make a small "pop" noise when you're following the process to enter Service mode? If not, then the watchdog timer's still active and will reset the unit after a certain time passes without a signal from the Navi to reset the count. Search the Hacks/Mods forum for "Service Mode", "reset", "speaker" and "pop" and I think you'll come across the thread where this was discovered (sorry, I don't have it bookmarked). Also looks like the Wiki's "Complete 3.0 Install Guide" has the right combo in Step 4.

Looks like that your post helps a lot of people, which is good.

We leave for a long trip on Friday and would love to install this so we wont have to park to change gps etc.

I have map v 2.000400 and system version 3.020000.

[*]Is this an upgrade? Assuming so as it says 3.1

[*]Do I need to backup current system files if so, how

[*]Will the maps/system contain the features of the x710 such as showing the exits that are coming up etc? I didn't have this on old 700 and like it.

Thanks in advance for the info

Beward!! FX 3.1 is just a number that the author give it. This FW is still v3.0201, and not FW v3.1.

The general backup is to copy the whole \My Flash Disk\ to your SD card.

The Exit indication is a MAP provider matter, not a SW matter (iGo 8.0 supports this already).

so I should be good to go then, thanks for the info.

Going from the F700 to the X710 (Same for F900/90 to X910, really nothing hardware wise changed the only differences were software. And in this firmware it has the latest and greatest software from Pioneer to date.

What are the differences in this 3.1 and the other 3.0 firmware in the forum? I was thinking your 3.1 has some custom mods where the other is just base 3.0?

I just posted above that FW 3.1 has nothing to do with Pioneer's FW number. It contains FW 3.0201 (US), one nav mod and some hacks for the purpose of easing up the hacking process for newbies.

I understand that. I was more referencing the versions and differences between this 3.1(not fw version) and the other 3.0 install in this forum.

more just trying to make sure that when I install one it does what I am wanting it to. I really just need the blasted nag screens to go away, and for the passenger to be able to edit gps details in motion. other than that I am fine. I also do not want to downgrade any software that may be on there.

I understand that I dont understand all of the workings, but hope to get there regarding this head unit. Thanks again for all of the info.
