Hello,

 

I have bought a Pioneer avid f900bt but when i turn in on the pioneer logo comes on and the lights of the buttons go on but then is stocks and after a few minutes it reboots. I try the reboot fix this didn't work. I also try to update it with v2 v3 and v4 but updating with v2 and v3 it gives an error. With v4 the updating works only after the update it stil reboots. I don't know what to do now i hope someone nows a solution. Tanks!

Hi to do this it's simple open the original folder of v3 and open APL  and copy to a sd card  the file image.res   put next testmode 

 

and put the sd card on your device and open total commander at the left side your storage card and at the right side your flash disk 

 

and copy the file inside your APL folder  at the message replace click on yes .and turn off your device retire the sd card and restart

It works really good only the navigation language is in french so now i need the language file APL2/iGo/content/lang/Lang_French.zip in dutch. But i don't know where i can find it. The other option is to put the tom tom 2015 maps on it but i don't really know how to do that..

Avic resets every time i power off my car.

 

Hi, I have an avic f-900BT *Greece) and ugraded to hybrid v.4.

 

After upgrade when i power on my car i cannot choose any other language than English and any other voice than English. If i try Greek for instance system reboots and asks me again to choose language and voice.

 

While i choose English (the only option that works) the unit comes to default settings. E.g. I change region to km\h instead of miles\h, navi settings to avoid toll roads etc everything works fine until i power off my car.

 

Then all settings are back to default.

 

Can anyone helm me please.

Hi take this folder decompress him and put the folder lang entire inside your flash disk ,the avic reboot because you don't have greek lang

do copy do this  put the folder lang and the folder testmode next on a sd card 

 

put the sd card on your device turn on your avic 

 

click on total commander  open at the left side strorage card and at the right side your flash disk (open apl2 and igo and content)

 

and copy the folder lang inside your flash disk and turn off your device and retire the sd card and restart your avic

Thank you so much for your immediate answer. I will give it a try in a few hours.

 

What about my other issues? Any time i power off my car all settings go back to default.

 

When i power on again my car i have to make settings regarding region (km/h), toll settings etc.

 

thanks again

Hi.

I've kinda figured it out. While in test mode i have noticed that my flash disk was full (16kb remaining) and therefore could not even copy greek language in the Lang Folder.

 

I went to the buildings and POIS folder and deleted some countries e.g. Bulgary and Romania  (6MB space). Then copied greek language.

 

Afterwards i deleted gpspara0.bin, gpspara1.bin, gpspara2.bin, gpspara3.bin and BOOM!!!!

 

My avic unit went back to normal. All settings stored and greek language installed.

 

Your support is really appreciated.

 

Thank you very much!!!!

Hi,

can anyone please tell me how to fix my avic f900bt?

After awhile the screen freezes on the welcome image and stays that way. If i insert a CD it works, but the menu button and the maps button are not working.

I updated my device with the latest version 4.0 but it's still the same. The boot button does nothing.

Help please.
