Pioneer AVIC reviews?

[Johnybeas]

fixed the gauge issue, but my bypass is still not working.

I grounded both wires through the main ground on the harness instead of my original location. That didn't fix it.

Next time I pull it all out to run the sub and amp wires and such I will see if I can mess with the wire that I moved in that harness and see if it's just not getting a good connection to the plug or something.

Will update and post how to later.

also can u ever get the splash screen to stay up? it seems like it only show when it starts up and almost seems pointless.

I attached my custom AVIC background file. I have the PIM version, but the forum refuses to allow me to attach it. It's in BMP format to prevent loss.

That's pretty sick! I like it a lot! You just gave me some ideas too. So what format does it have to be in to upload it to the deck?? also, how did you transfer it, just a flash drive through the usb port or what??

since I have my trunk torn up I was wondering where I can connect the reverse light lead for the back up camera to? I'm looking at the service manual and the colors I'm seeing coming from the trunk lid are different than what I see for the harnesses for the reverse lights. Any Ideas of where to get to this wire I need?

I ran mine to the trunk and tapped it into the reverse light wire in the trunk. I think the AVIC instructions tell you an example of this.

One thing I don't like about the AVIC F700BT is the "slow" volume control-it takes multiple twists to move volume up or down. Hitting the volume control to "mute" requires it be held in perfectly straight-if you rock it at all, the voice command menu will take over...
Supposedly, the software can be upgraded to 3.0xxx from the new AVIC F710BT...

Color wire? Location specifically where you tapped in? I couldn't find the right wire.
Also has anyone seen a hack to somehow show any engine systems on your avic? Such as fuel pressure etc?
