Thanks! One thing I love about this forum is that everyone here understands how excited we can get over a new toy for our GP.

Very Nice, it's a Pioneer....so how did you get the Comp G on there? That is awesome.
03-07-2013
Nice I have the avh 2400. No nav but its sweet. How did you put the picture on it? I tried putting pictures on mine thru usb but couldn't..do I need a parking bypass just to put pics on even do you think?

So, I made my own splash screen just using photoshop. I have an avic 940bt head unit and I just had to make sure I sized the image to be 500x240 or 1000x480 and save it into a folder named "pictures" on a micro sd card. If it is anywhere other than a folder named pictures on the root level the pioneer won't see it. That said, I am unfamiliar with your head unit but I would be more than happy to do a little research on it. I can definitely say that the bypass wouldn't be needed just for a custom splash screen though. So stay tuned and I will let you know what I find out.

Okay sweet, ill start looking into that now too. I was using a USB instead of an sd card but idk if that would matter. And I just threw it all on separately with my music. I will try n make a folder then check n see if that works. If you figure it out lemme know. Thanks

i have the avh1400dvd and had no problems just throwing a picture on a usb drive and using it as a background. cannot remember off the top of my head how i accomplished it without the headunit right in front of me however i do believe it was in the same place all the other backgrounds are located in the appearance settings such as color background etc

Yeah, I haven't tried today. I have tried before tho n ik it didnt work. Because k have pics on the usb thats in there n could never get thwm on there..Originally Posted by 2dee11

from what I have been reading, it really is just as simple as viewing a photo from your usb and selecting the option to set it as a background. It reads the root directory first so place your .jpg image in the root directory outside of a folder and it should pull it right up. I say should because I don't have a similar unit to test it on. I know I am not really as helpful as I had hoped to be.

Yeah I'll have to try tomorrow to hook it back up to my pc n see what they're saved under n try n make a folder for em. It doesn't matter too much it'd just be nice. N don't worry about it, it's more than what I knew before now. Thanks

If you want a custom image file to try just let me know and we can come up with something specific to you or your car. Mine was obviously geared towards my Comp G but I think we can do something cool for you too.
03-08-2013
Okay cool. Yeah I obv have an 06 gt supercharged. Hell, id even just like the pontiac sign with pontiac written. I just googled pontiac symbol n went to images. Thats good enough for me. But if you make something just pm it to me. Thanks bro

PM me your favorite view of your ride and don't worry about the background in the pic since I will probably change it anyway lol.

does Pioneer units store that picture on unit? or does that USB always need to be plugged in? mine is the AVH-p2300DVD.. never boted messing with it just use the stock backrounds.
03-08-2013
Haha aight sweet, I'm sure it will change soon tho! Thanks bro
03-08-2013
No doesn't store them, just the stock 5 or so n then mine has a few "live backgrounds" or w.e you wanna call em. N then mine has a picture icon but i can never open it. It's like blacked out.

Well I successfully tied my new XM receiver into the factory antenna so I guess I am forced to move on to my next project...just haven't decided what that will be yet. And I am liking the avatar GrandPrix06GT, now let's figure out how to get it on your head unit lol.
03-09-2013
Haha thanks man. Yeah I haven't messed with it yet still. Maybe tomorrw, n I vote go fast parts lol
