QUOTE(rainsplit @ Nov 13 2012, 12:21 PM) Hi, it happened to my car a few months ago, i drove it to the sc & suddenly its gone, according to the manager it could be small stones or tars stuck in between the disc & brake pad that caused it. The sc did their checks & clean the brake pads/disc & didn't find any problems. After that no more sound appeared until today. I advice you to take the car to the sc for a proper checking B) yes, this could be the reason as i saw one forte kena before at SC during my forte 10k service.

Hi, does anyone face any similar issue on the DVD Navi? My 4 months old forte is having this hang issue on the DVD navi and below are some of the captured images. once the DVD-Navi is hang then only force restart the DVD-Navi in order to solve the issue. Any idea is it due to cable connection issue or the whole DVD-Navi has to be replaced? This post has been edited by Intel@Atom: Nov 20 2012, 08:46 PM Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(camron @ Dec 26 2012, 10:47 PM) 2.0. Almost three weeks old. Yes... they said they improved that. Now it's on 3rd or 4th version edi. Heard that the led is somehow showing the cpu is loading when u turn on/off the HU while it's blinking. do you know whether 1.6 got this improved version or not?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9HVWApT7KwHi Guys, just want to share my experience with my forte dvd navigator unit. mine 1 was the old batch which was bought in June 2012. At first the unit was working fine most of the time but sometime it just hung (radio mode) and i just restarted it as i thought it is a just small problem. However the issue became more and more serious where the screen will flickering, blurring, moving up/down, left right (like kena virus) and sometime it seemed like wanna get exploded (refer to the video that I posted in youtube then you can understand clearly). i went to nz galaxy to ask for repairing and the technician just updated the firmware and asked me go back and try again. however the problem was not solved and accidentally i got the naza general manager (should be a top guy) hp number from internet then I called him and i thought to hang up since he is no longer in nz galaxy but he is very kind and said will ask the branch manager to call me. less than 5 minutes then the branch manager called me up like very worry and asked me go to their workshop for troubleshooting. I went for the 2nd time and the china FAE (standby there) to troubleshoot my dvd unit but only firmware was updated as the issue can't be duplicated all the time although i have taken some photos. the next day when i was on the way go to work in 5am in the morning, the issue shown up again then i quickly recorded it with my phone. i sent an SMS to the branch manager to complaint again and the manager called me up about 7am (right after he woke up) and asked me go to their workshop and they will change a new unit for me directly. hence i got an improved DVD-navi for free for the 3rd visits. The branch manager told me the new unit is an improved version (with LED) and i have tested it for few weeks now and it is really impressed as last time I always turned off the AF so that the audio is better but I'm always travelling between states so AF is quite useful for me. With the new unit there is no noise distortion at all with the AF on where I can enjoy my same radio station without to remember and change the radio channel as it automatically change it for me. thumb up for the good service although it could be the pressure from the general manager but at least the problem has been solved. btw, i noticed the old DVD-navigator unit needs plenty of 3rd party cables/converters but the improved dvd-navigator unit can use the original cables from the forte directly.

QUOTE(g88 @ Jan 4 2013, 11:40 AM) after Sep 2012 batch should be coming with improved version HU where have a LED at the left bottom corner but then it take 10 sec to boot up....read someone posted it has better processor inside but radio sound still bad. Experience that if your thumbdrive still plug in to the port the next time you off / on the HU (even with the improved HU) i will not detect, you have to manually unplug and plug back the drive again....but certain drive if you keep pressing the PLAY option on the player it will redetect back where you last stop....  is it? my 4gb pendrive is always plugged into the USB port for both old and new dvd navig units and i can play the video or songs directly without unplug and plug back.
