I checked. It's v.1.02 but again, there are no updates for this model I believe.
-
I will check but there are no firmware updates on Pioneer's site for the AVIC-W8600NEX. There are for older models like the 8500. Where did you find that list?

Been over two years and this issue is still present. Obviously a "permissions" issue in writing but since I can't make the head unit go into "sudo" mode, I was wondering if this is just a permanent bug or not. Seems like Pioneer has given up on support and releasing new double DIN NAV head units as newer cars are designed not to accept them anymore. I'm probably beating a dead horse at this point but still curious after all this time if anyone else has run into this or not.

I just acquired an AVIC-W8600NEX. The track log apparently can be exported out to an SD card using the gpx file format. The card that was installed had music and video files on it but it was formatted as FAT32. When I went to export the log it came back with an error: Failed to create path for track log /udisk/tracks/Trip 001 - 01 -14-2022 22-50-06.gpx. Check the storage card. Any ideas?

Official AVIC NEX Bypass (AVIC NEX Units Only)
Preroll replied to installereric's topic in NEX Series
I have an AVIC-W8600NEX. i could not get video or Android Auto to function until I grounded the green brake wire. Even with the secret lower left bypass set to on, I still had to ground that green wire. -

I used the DIYBypass wire with chip. It auto grounds each time you power up. So far so good. http://www.diybypass.com/instructions2.html -
I found a firewall and managed to get v.2.3.0 as well as v.2.9.0 working. Thanks!
-
Yes. Thanks for 2.5.0 if you can. You had experienced the same issue with AR? I think they want to force the upgrades for analytics. Ironically, v.2.9.0 does work with my X-950 but the old compatible apps are not shown because they are too old. I had to force them on with AppEX and they work fine now. I have Cydia but not sure which firewall you installed to make that happen. Can you tell me which one worked for you as I obviously have Cydia as well. Thanks again.

Does anyone still have the .ipa file for v.2.4.0. for iOS? I have been using v.2.3.0 on an iOS6 jail broken phone for almost three years as it was the only version that a) worked with my X-950, allowed me to use App Radio Extensions, and c) allowed some other JB apps to run. For some reason, Pioneer has magically pushed a kill switch on this app. When it launches, it crashes. If I put the phone into airplane mode, then the app stays running but of course does nothing since I need an active connection for Waze, etc. Once I re-enable cell service, the app crashes. I have un-installed, re-

Don't bother to update. I have the same head unit and the F/W update will break the bypass if you have already done so. Basically just convert the files to MP4's if you can. It will play that. If you're running an iPhone, add them via iTunes as a movie which will play w/o loading and unloading SD cards.

I was just going to make a new thread about this until I saw this post. I am experiencing the same issue. I have an iPhone 5 using iOS6 with App radio Extensions installed along with App Radio v.2.3.0. It seems like the only combination that has worked for everything since updating apps and/or App Radio has broken something along the way. Out of nowhere, the Car Media Play button lost it's icon. It would give the old Apple spin logo like when you boot a Mac and then it would give up and just leave a grey icon that says, "App". So, I uninstalled App radio v.2.3.0 and re-installed. It the

I read somewhere on this site that the later firmware version screws up the bypass. I'm not sure if this is true or not and I would hope someone else can confirm but if that's the case, I'll stay at v.1.03.

Wow! This unit sounds like a nightmare. I still have the X950BH and the only feature I like that they've added was the posted speed limit info on the NAV screen which I really wish I could add to the X950BH but the one feature which I use all the time which was removed was the AppMode display. It was 2D/3D/AppMode. I even asked good 'ol Harry at the Pioneer booth at CES about it and he had no idea why it was dropped (actually he didn't even realize (at the time) that the posted speed limits were going to be imposed). The AppMode display gave a spit screen for the built in NAV and the AppR
