  1. Pioneer has posted updated firmware version 3.002 for the Z130BT and Z930BT on their website http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Support/Downloads on 05 DEC 2014 to fix a USB charging issue. If I install this, will the map update from http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/38472-2013-usacan-maps-download/ still work?
  2. The lightning port on the VGA Adapter provides pass through charging only. It does not pass data through. I tried it out by first disabling iTunes WiFi sync and connecting the following together: Computer -> Lightning to USB adapter -> Lighting to VGA adapter -> iPhone. The phone simply will not sync with iTunes and the computer detected the VGA adapter as a "Charging Device" I've also tried this with a USB speaker. It didn't work when I added a VGA adapter to the mix.
  3. The free z140 update from pioneerelectronics.com is only for iPhone lightning functionality and is not needed in your case. Just go to navigation.com and purchase the 2013 map update for $120 or perhaps someone has already cracked it and posted the rar somewhere.
  4. All I'm saying is that the Apple VGA Adapter is a video only device and it is not capable of handling Audio or Touch control data. Seems to me that it could be an easy software fix to the Z130 to make Audio and Touch pass through Bluetooth like it does in the Z140 and Z150.
  5. The problem with the Apple Lightning to VGA adapter is that it only passes video. It does not pass audio nor will it pass touch commands from the headunit back to the phone. If you connected an Apple Lightning to USB cable from a PC to the lightning jack on the VGA adapter, you will see that the PC recognizes it as a USB charging device. Adapting the VGA adapter to composite and connecting it to an Apple Lightning to Apple 30-pin Dock adapter will also only pass Video, thus it will also not work. For the Z140, there appears to be additional processing (probably done by the uCom update)
  6. When attempting to install software update ver 4.6, this is what happens: 1. Files get copied into USER. 2. Z130BT reboots and attempts to flash firmware and gets stuck at uCom update. It's looking for SYS110 and SAL110, but looking at the extracted files from the update, there's only SYS121 and SAL121. 3. After rebooting a second time, the Z130BT seems normal. So, after installing ver 4.6, this is what I get: 1. iPod touch button changes from the 30-pin connector image to a musical note. 2. Pressing iPod goes straight to "AppRadio Mode". I cannot switch to iPod music mode. 3
  7. Navteq finally posted the T1000-20495 2013 map update on their website at www.navigation.com. The manual PDF specifically states that iPhone5 lightning functionality is for AVIC Z140BH and X940BH. Looks like us with older units are out of luck.
  8. So, I found more information. According to the following posts, a Z110BT, Z120BT and Z130BT are not equivalent in hardware to a Z140BH (even with the map update). http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/37407-2013-eu-update-f30-f930-f9310-f40-f940-f840-f8430/?p=272846 http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/38050-x940update-not-working/?p=273425 http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/38050-x940update-not-working/?p=273437 It seems that there are different uCom firmwares for each of the different kinds of hardware. SAL/SYS123 = X940, SAL/SYS110 = X930 and so on. Included in the Z140BH ver. 4
  9. Ok, so I tried it again. uCom is still not getting updated. I'll wait till the next map update and see what gets changed. If that doesn't add Iphone 5 app mode support, I'll switch to the AppRadio 3 and remove the Z130.
  10. So, my first attempt at updating failed. I was able to load the updated software version 4.6, but I'm unable to update uCom to 8.05. My system uCom is currently version 8.01. When running Program forced write, the version of uCom on the SD card is ----------. I was able to update the Bluetooth firmware from 3.24 to 3.32 with no difficulty. I wonder if that would improve Bluetooth performance. Luckily, I have a backup copy of my USER directory, so I was able to restore my software to 4.0001. Any suggestions? Should I try the 5.1 download? Will the 2013 map update possibly work
  11. In that case, I'll be the guinea pig. Pioneer is having a 1/2 off sale on the CD-IV202NAVI (http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/Accessories/Smartphone-and-iPod-Cables/CD-IV202NAVI). I'll try it as soon as I get the parts.
  12. Thanks for the info. I already have the 2012 map upgrade (T1000-19328). I'm going to wait until the 2013 map upgrade before I try this.
  13. Just yesterday Pioneer released two firmware updates for the Z140 (http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/firmware) to enable lightning port functionality. They are the ver 5.1 for those who installed the Navteq T1000-20495 map update or ver 4.6 for those who didn't update. I have a Z130 with the 2012 Navteq map update T1000-19328. Which of these two firmware will work with the Z130? Also, what is Navteq update T1000-20495?
  14. Hi there. First, you've bumped twice in the same 24 hour period. Proper netiquette is to please be patient so that people can dig up the best answers for you. Second, starting with beta 4 of iOS6, Apple removed built-in support for YouTube, thus killing AppMode support for YouTube. Google then provided their own version of the YouTube app (http://www.macrumors.com/2012/12/04/google-updates-youtube-for-ios-app-adds-ipad-airplay-iphone-5-support/), which I suspect does not have built-in support for AppMode. Third, according to Pioneer's North American Facebook Timeline, the apps tha

    iPhone 5 support?

    Just found some info on Pioneer's site. Looks like we'll need Lightning to USB and Lightning to VGA adapters as well as the $100 CD-IV202NAVI kit. http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Press-Room/Car-Audio-Video/Pioneer+Announces+Enhanced+iPhone+5+Connectivity+for+AppRadio+2+and+AppRadio+Mode+Products
