Nex8100 upgrade to UK? — AVIC411 Forum Archive

Hi all good to join the forum.

So i just bought a unit and now is the time to try to install it in my car but is from US nex8100 and im from UK.

Nex8100 usa model is the same model in uk f77dab?

Is there something i can do to get UK maps installed and change something for radio frequency to europe?

It never been turned on before, its new in box.

Where do i start? Im willing to pay to somebody for helping me and holding my hand to set it all up

Nav won't work no maps for it there on that unit, can't change it, Radio won't work wrong frequencies...

Sell it and get the UK version

You 100% sure that unit is useless for me in europe?

I read something about flash cross, is that option to consider?

Can you tell me if 8100 is the same as f77dab for UK?

I have had my F70DAB bricked and then unlocked the card and installed a clean 8100 image and it is working. Then updated firmware for the F70DAB and everything is fine for me.

You can set the map of Europe

how to make it look in the subject http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/81468-the-avic-development-mod/

Radio will only work for multiple frequencies of 0.2

Don't forget to correct the subject of this thread to "....downgrade to UK". Let's just put that out there and get it right.

Thank you
