Avic X920BT upgraded to X940BT stuck at version 5.
Alexei Navalny replied to gjljgj1@comcast.net's topic in Hacks/Mods
If it works now, it will work with 5.1. That was a patch to 5.0 to fix some issues with Apple Lighting support. BTW, it is still on Pioneer USA's site: Software Downloads Scroll down to X940 5.1 update. Read the instructions before installing. -

Keepin mind that you don't currently have a x-940, you have a X920 running v5.0 firmware. In the 5.1 update it clearly says: -
I wouldn't bother trying to install 2.003. It is obselete and if you've lived with it this long - you don't need it. Instead, update to the 2017 firmware and maps.

Fix BT problems on f20bt to f40bt and f920bt to f940bt
Alexei Navalny replied to morus's topic in Problems/Troubleshooting
On my Z110-BT it is in /USER/SETUP/BT. Here's mine but I don't know if it will work. Did you try just copy/deleting yours and see it it could be recreated? BTUNIT.DAT -
Fix BT problems on f20bt to f40bt and f920bt to f940bt
Alexei Navalny replied to morus's topic in Problems/Troubleshooting
First make sure that your parking brake is detected as set. Go to Settings / Navi Settings / Connection Status and make sure it says Parking Brake is On. When Off, some settings and functions are grayed. -
I think there might be a few minor differences in the menus. Did you also update the Bluetooth to v3.32? I can't help with speed cameras. I think somewhere in this thread someone posted about that. We don't have that "feature" in the US. I assume your iPod is wired and your Samsung is through BT. If you are trying to use Pandora or Aha, there is a setting somewhere called App Connection" where you select wired or wireless (BT). iPods should be wired (USB) with the proper cable. Some people have reported problems with Samsung via BT. But whenever there are problems after a ma

I don't know why some people have trouble getting that file. I can download it. I even reposted it here: http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/83535-map-update-hack-using-shortfuse-method-z110-z140x920-x940/&do=findComment&comment=347222

Shortfuse Hack
-
So Testmode booted and you saw the menu? That's really all I wanted to know for now. That says your unit isn't totally bricked. There's some Youtube videos on TestMode but the operation is different between the X and Z series (different buttons). You probably won't need it anyway. If your unit already has 3.x on it, it won't do anything. So I'd try installing the 2017 maps/app. It is in the Z series sub-forum. First read and Install the shortfuse hack. That prepares the unit for the map installation. BTW - Z and X series use the same update. Good luck - you've got a lot of reading to do.

If that is the only thing wrong, it sounds like a settings issue. I just looked in the X series operations manual and it mentions you can turn off guidance by pressing the center of the volume knob. A long press mutes everything. A short press mutes guidance. Also check System Settings/Volume Settings to see both the Guidance volume level and the guidance mute icon.
-
What update and what happened when you tried to install it? Did it do nothing? Have you tried TestMode? BTW, I see no point in installing v3.x software. If it happened out-of-the-blue then It sounds like a hardware problem.
-
I am certain that the error is when the script is executing the command: COPY USER\SYSTEM\SECURITY\PASSWORD.DAT SD\PASSWORD.DAT That means it can't write to SD. There is the only one COPY command in the script. If you want, you can edit ScriptExec.ini and remove that line. In that case, you will not have a backup of the old password file, but that should not hurt.

2017 v7 Mod: Nag Screen Removal Z, X, and F series
Alexei Navalny replied to Alexei Navalny's topic in Hacks/Mods
Great. Which model? I guess it shouldn't matter as long as it is compatible with v7 (2017) firmware. But it is nice to know the proven successes. -
2017 v7 Mod: Nag Screen Removal Z, X, and F series

It is easily reversible if it doesn't work. -
Or you could of searched around here for a few minutes and got it for free. Security Password Removal Script for Z110/120/130/140, x920/930/940 & some older F series

What version map software are you running? You don't want the original (Z140) BT firmware. If you can't install the update you won't be able to re-install the original. Best to figure out the problem. You need to run the version that goes with your current applications. You never said exactly what the problem was installing the update. What happens if you try again? Try a different SD? Reformat (full not quick) FAT32. Don't use a huge sd - less than 16 GB. BTW, all you need on the SD is the FIRMWARE folder & contents. If you don't have the parking brake by-passed, set your parking brake,

Yeah, that sucks. I guess going forward we'll have to use links to referenced posts. I think this is what #151 refers to http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/32929-x930bt-password-recovery-obsolete/&do=findComment&comment=280379

2017 v7 Mod: Nag Screen Removal Z, X, and F series
Alexei Navalny replied to Alexei Navalny's topic in Hacks/Mods
Thanks. I thought about doing something like that but I didn't want to deal with figuring out (in the script) which PRG directory to update. Now, I realize it doesn't matter - just do both. The non-active directory NAVI.EXE will never be run again. And next update (2018?) will overwrite it anyway. Brilliant. BTW, I added a warning so some fool doesn't brick his unit with an incompatible program. -
First install shortfuse (read the 1st post in that thread). Then you can reformat and use the SD for installing the maps. Do not try to do both at the same time. Do not have any files on the map SD except the files extracted for the 2017 zip. Do not modify any of those files except if you need to replace CARDINFO,CIF. If you don't know what I'm referring to, read the thread.
