IIRC you were the same one that had this problem before correct? Nothing should have been removed from 2.3. It should work the same as far as bypass goes. The pioneer.ini still has the bypass in it.

 

Yeah, Had this issue once before but you were able to get it worked out. Don't remember what was done. :huh: Not sure what to do. Guess I'll go back to the old version until a solution is found.

How do you go about "upgrading" this from 2.3 to this version?

Simply follow the instructions in the first post on page 1. :)

diaftia,

Love your mod. One issue though. When touching bluetooth icon on map it dials home number. Is there a way to bring up phone menu when you touch that button? That way it will give flexibility of dialing any number from there.

I looked through all customised menu and user menu but could not find phone menu there. Only way was through main menu and then phone.

All my mods should be Oregon complaint going forward ;)

 

The hilarious thing is that there is a small chunk of Eastern Oregon that's on Mountain time, and ScottO's post did point out support for multi-timezone support (the Florida example). If I better understood how to correctly describe where these TZs are located I'd try for putting Mountain time back in for any AVIC owners in Malheur County (are there any?).

 

Gotta love all the effort iGo put into verifying the tzinfo.bin data (the same bug's in my iPaq 310's data.zip, so it's not Pioneer's fault... For a change. :D).

As far as I know this is not possible. I know you want to bring up the dial pad but as far as I know there is no available command to do that. The command I use dials whatever number is set to home. So basically set that to your most commonly dialed #. Otherwise you could use the voice activation. Probably better than looking at the screen dialing anyway. If someone has the command for it (not sure if it was figured out while I was away) then I could do a long press to bring it up. I am just not aware that there is a command to do that.

 

EDIT: I might have found a solution to this. We'll see. Gonna test this weekend and see if it works.

3.2 Changes on 12/30/10

 

  • Auto installer. Now just extract the contents to an SD card and insert into the avic. Pick the unit you have and let it copy. Will preserve favorites and delete save files automatically.
  • Clock and compass delete (Removing just one moves the other over and expands the room for the top text when in route and not in route)
  • Add favorite from GPS and History did not work correctly. All fixed.
  • Mute icon added to full screen cockpit mode.
  • Speedcam text color change fixed. Was not working correctly
  • Oregon time zone repair.
  • Fixed your speed sign so it also goes to the split screen nav when in euro mode.
  • Elevation sign correctly adds a speedcam to the current GPS location when pressed.

 

Here are the steps to load it...

 

  1. Extract zip file to a blank SD card and insert into your AVIC.
  2. Power on AVIC and let it boot.
  3. Choose the region and model AVIC you have and let the installer copy the files.
  4. Reboot THEN remove SD card.

Wow! Thanks for the new year's gift. I love your mod.

 

I've been away from this site for a while. I'm still using version 2.3. One thing that has annoyed me the most in the previous version is the speed camera/radar audible alert. I can't turn down the volume or mute it. The volume knob doesn't affect it. Would it be possible to add a mute option or shorten the length of the audible alert event? Please put it on your list of things to do for the next update or so.

You're welcome. You should really like this one over the last one. Completely customizable menu. Just hold any button to change it or reconfigure the whole thing.

 

With the speedcams you can already actually. In the speedcam settings there are actually two buttons for each alert. The top of the speedcam setting itself is for the visual alert. The part below that has the words (reminder, off, etc) are for the audible portion. Check out my recommended settings in the first post. Should help quiet things down. 90% of the alerts that come up are for speed traps. I usually have it visually alert me for those and turn the audible portion off.

 

Like this:

As for the volume look in the volume settings. Its in there now.

Wow release 3.2

 

I will try it as soon as I can ...

 

Can I use my sys.txt from 3.1? Because I change all the things to german...

 

Where can I find the Background from Trip Computer, so I can change it to green, that fits better to my car.

 

Happy new year from Germany

Just make a backup of your sys.txt to your SD card. When you insert the sdcard and it boots to the install menu hit cancel. That will bring you to the desktop. Get a backup of your file. Reboot the avic and choose the first install option. Once it's done copying close all the copy screens by the x's in the corner as normal. Restore your sys.txt.

 

Can you send me your sys.txt?

Thanks Diaftia... great release.

There never was. You have to edit the file on your PC. I will see if I can locate a wince version of it. The link was there from someone else. I'll check it out to make things easier.

 

EDIT: Found an freeware one that needs a couple DLL's to work. Also freeware. Not pissing off the MSFT gods. :) Its in the next release as well as the option to preserve the favorites.dat file when installing.

 

Hi Alex

 

All was working well after deleting the save file. I uploaded your new version today and found that even though I selected the model I have in Australia it didn't change the sys.txt file nor did it erase the save files. I changed the sys.txt file manually to the correct version, deleted the save files and all worked ok. Not sure if it was something I was doing wrong or a bug in the loader. Great mod, works well.

Sometimes it help to first install another language and then go back to the old.

 

It fixes my problems with voices till now.

Wow, didnt notice this update...

 

I know its a long shot, but i have always wondered if its possible to have a split screen mode like what is found in the 04+ Yukon Denali factory/Delphi/Eclipse navigation systems. Here is a pic of it:

avn6620.jpg

 

Basically, on the right bottom of the screen, it lists your current street. Above that it lists the distance of the next turn, the direction of the turn, and the name of the street. Then above that, it lists the next 2 turns. And when you are close to the turn, the right side of the screen changes, to show you the lane assist picture thing.

 

For example, if the exit has 2 exits on it, it will have an overlay picture of the exit and will draw a line on which lane to take when the exit splits into 2 different directions

the trick with changing the language en voice is not working for me.

Hey Alex,

 

you are way too quick for me :rolleyes: .

I'm still on 3.1 and have at least one thing which I find needs improvement: to toggle between the map styles you have to press the compass, but I find it very hard to touch the button so it responds in the right way. 90% I end up setting the cursor in the to right corner instead of toggling between 2d and 3d. Maybe it's just me, but takes a lot of attention off the road.

In addition I have one question: Is there a way to hide the speedcam icons on the map? Here in Europe you can get serious fines in some countries if cought with a System like that.

 

 

 

Thanks

Jörg

Hey Segler1963 couldn't you just delete the speedcam files from My Flash Disk\APL2\iGo\Content\Speedcam and no more speedcam info to display.

Split Screen

 

re-read my post, I was asking if the split screen can be made like the pic I showed, where it lists the next 3 turns, not just the next turn :P

If I delete these, I get no warnings anymore, I just want to get rid of the Icons on the map-
