Thank you very much for making all these files available.

Fixed a friend F900-BT wich was in the reboot loop (even if sometimes the unit was working for a few minutes).

The unit was still using the 1.9 firmware.

I started by transferring the "My Flash Disk MB.rar" to the internal memory, but it resulted in the unit not booting anymore, stuck at the splash screen.

I then transferred the "AVIC_F700BT_F900BT_VER_2009000.zip" over it, this resulted in the unit booting.

At that time, the reboot loop was fixed, but the GPS reception was broke. Impossible to catch a single satellite were it was previously fixing really quickly.

At that time, I decided to wipe the internal memory and put back the backup I made of it before touching it.

I then only applied the "AVIC_F700BT_F900BT_VER_2009000.zip" over it and voila, the unit booted, GPS fix in a second and not a single reboot for now.

Merci beaucoup, vu la rareté de ces fichiers aujourd'hui, vous nous avez rendu un gros coup de main.

I really really hope someone is around to help me out.

I have the AVIC-F90BT in Canada.

Stupid thing got stuck in the reboot loop two weeks ago and it's driving me crazy.  I've been trying to find someone I can pay to fix it but the shops I've called have said that is the kiss of death and I have to buy a new navi.

Can anyone help me out here?

I am not super techy so I don't understand all of what is going on.  What files do I need to download? 

Thank you so much!

location in canada? dont have a link anymore but guimzos link should have the correct files

Hi there.

I looking for f930bt backup files...

My avic doesn't start up, it's staying on Pioneer navgate star screen.

I have an access to internal memory through supertestmode, but I have no clue which files are missing..

Any one has some tips or advices?

Thanks

Thanks Tail24 awesome fix. My F900BT is back to normal. 

I need some help please. I've had the reboot issue for a while now, F700BT, Canada, and I've read through several different threads. I started playing with it last night, got test mode up and working. I went through, just tried deleting the gpspara* files, reboot, same thing.

Went looking through the files, I noticed the iGo files were corrupt. Most were missing, the few there were corrupt. Copied in the proper files, it corrupted them all. After another reboot, I managed to rename the iGo folder, and copied in a fresh version. Same problem. Can't delete that renamed folder, but I don't think its the issue anymore.

From there, I downloaded the full F700 files (My Flash Disk MB). I copied the whole thing and pasted it in properly. It ended getting a general error. I rebooted, after a minute to start up, it actually worked, but my default language was french. No problem, I went into the settings, changed to english, rebooted, language change took. Checked the version, 2.0006 I believe. Music was playing for several minutes, I thought I had it sorted out. I should have just quit there, but I didn't. I started looking at the GPS settings, they were still in French. I believe I changed the GPS maps source, it asked to restart. From there, I got the black pioneer screen, and it sat there. Pressing the menu button, took me to the menu, with the startup message again, same looping issue

Tried copying the entire F700 directory again, this time 1 folder at a time. No errors at all. rebooted, same issue. Back into testmode, deleted the gpspara files again, rebooted, same issue.

Copied the entire F700 folder again, no errors, still not working on reboot. Its even worse now, I'm not even getting the reboot, it just sits at the splash screen all the time, and does nothing.

Went ahead and formatted the drive, to properly remove the corrupted folder, copied the F700 stuff, no luck, still sits at the splash screen.

I'm in pretty deep now, did another format, tried the FX 3.1, copied it all over, reboot, no luck, still sits at the splash screen.

Any ideas what's going on, or how to fix it? It was working at one point, I should have left it. Should I try the hybrid 4.00 files? Anything else to suggest?

Hi red blake instal  hybrid 4001  and he gone to work for you  and for map take them here 

http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/81916-map-for-usa-canada-and-mexico-2014-q2/

Thanks for getting back to me. Ok, I downloaded hybrid 4.001 and went through the readme file. First off, I went and grabbed the map files you specified, the dem file and put it in the right spot under copy_contents_to_my_flash_disk.

Updated the OS, everything worked fine. After 0=WINCE by SD/MMC (Format), I get Read progress: 100%. Does that mean its done and worked?

From there, held reset, booted into testmode. To be safe, I formatted the drive, kept the partition name the same. Then I copied in the new files. The GPSpara files still want to regenerate. I removed them when everything was done copying.

Removed card, rebooted the unit, same issue, it just sits at the splash screen. Any idea what went wrong? Should I reformat my SD card and try it all again from the start?

Hi your problem  is curious , ok do that format your sd card on fat 32  , after copy all files hybrid 4001 inside your avic  copy the files one by one use total commander  and copy apl ,apl 2 etc....     after copy map ,dem , do not touch to gps para files   , delete your user data  in his folder  ( delete all folder)  and turn off the avic retire the sd card and restart 

It worked! Thank you very much. I believe part of the problem was the SD card not being freshly formatted. After doing that, and re-copying the files, I updated the OS from the flash card. When I did it this time, it took a bit longer, went to 100%, then went through writing image, and showed the confirmation that the CE upgrade was Ok. It didn't do that the first time. That was a good sign.

From there, I used total commander, copied all the files individually, restarted, and after a minute, it went through the initial setup. Music works, GPS opened, but I need to go for a drive and try it out. So far so good.

Merci beaucoups guizmo, votre aide est incroyable! Les instructions sont tres bien. J'apprecie tout votre temps et expertise!

have a nice trip happy to help 

​Looking for some help please. I've just purchased a 2008 ford escape for my daughter that has a AVIC- F700BT, I live in Alberta Canada,  I've read through several different threads but none seem to be exact to my problem. So here's the issue when I first start the vehicle the unit powers up and I see a ford logo on the screen, then it wouldn't do anything, no buttons would work. I down loaded the 200.6000 firmware update and the Bluetooth update from the pioneer website onto a SD Card. I installed as per online instructions. It took about 15 minutes and seemed to install fine. once completed I can push the menu button and see the 3 main icons nav, phone and audio, the only one that takes me to a different screen is the audio and it takes me to 4 icons but only 2 are high lighted. the 2 system setup icons don't light up the other 2 do nothing. the map button on the unit goes to the GPS warning screen then the whole system freezes. About every 5 minutes the system reboots back to the ford logo.. I tried resetting the system with the button and it makes no difference, hoping for help to get back to working condition    

I have a problem,  because mine will not even let me open the Face Panel to put SD card Into it....

It is stuck in a loop  will not fully boot up.   It boots to the Language Select Screen,  will not let you select anything  Freezes there for a few Seconds then just Reboots again.   Keeps doing this over and over and over.

Is there someone or somewhere that I can Send This to have it fixed???   I am desperate   Please help

Hi guys,

I own a F930BT AVIC unit.

I have used the hacks of this forum (some of them), upgraded my unit to the last European Maps (2015 version) and everything was working fine.

But recently my unit has gone crazy and reboots now and then.

I tryed to upgrade to the 2017 EU maps following the instructions of the proper post of this forum without success, every SD cards gives me error no matter wht do I try. 

I do not know how to proceed to correct my unit and avoid rebooting all the time randomly. I have to say that the unit works, starts, and is working long time before it reboots without any reason, or sometimes it takes seconds to reboot, but it is working, I can listen to the radio, the GPS works fine, and so on, the only problem is it reboots randomly with no reason...

I am sure it is a software problem.

I can't follow the steps of the first post because my unit has no WindowsCE, I only can go to Testmode. 

Any suggestion of how to fix my unit?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I've got the reboot problem with my European F900BT again (after some years now). I downloaded the files that were posted some pages ago.

First I tried to update WINCE, it looks good but when it said reboot I did that and  only get my boot-logo and after some seconds a black screen.

I tried to copy all files for the testmode on the sd card but it didn't boot into test mode.

Any ideas how to bring the F900BT back to life?

My map version was 1.xxx and my system version 2.0001 I think.

HI everyone!

I have AVIC-F900BT and he start to reboot itself every 4-5min. do you have file to upload again to try to solve this problem?

thanks in advance!

I have the AVIC-F900BT reboot problem, does anyone know how to solve it for the Canadian version? Most of what I've seen adheres to the European one. Been losing my mind over here.

Thanks!

Hi Guys.  I have an AVIC-F90BT that has developed the, what seems to be a common (but dreaded), resetting loop issue.  I contacted Pioneer and they wanted me to send them the unit for repairs which will cost a minimum of $230 for their service!  I see that there are ways to do some software file changes, but I cant seem to find a good tutorial on how to do it, nor a valid link to download the files.  I have heard of torrent, but I have not idea how to do that.  Can anyone...ANYONE help me out, PLEASE???  Thanks in advance for taking the time to help!  Any tips are much appreciated.
