I've tried to update X940BT with 4.1+map update- it doesn't start update process. Anything I can do to force it to start update?

Dear Pionara you have solution for update for X930BT and X920BT... What to do if it's X940BT?Do I need new cardinfo? May be it should pretend to be 5.0 update?

I have little problem with radio. After region change hack (i put region code "38") I have limited radio friquency range from 87.9 to 97.8 (?) and step is 0.05Mhz on 4.01 software. And using same hack I have 87.9-107.9Mhz range with step of 0.2Mhz on 3.01 software (as it should be). What am I doing wrong?

I do not know, but you may try this method:1. choose language you do not need and it has TTS 2. Put in the Sound and TTSData folder Romanian voice files. 3. Prepare copy of Romanian voice files renamed to chosen language (see step 1.) 4. Replace chosen language files with these renamed ones. So now you have 2 copies of Romanian language in the folder but one renamed. 5. Select chosen language in settings menu. 6. Try it... I hope you do not need to change LOPEDATA.DAT and PP.DAT files... but may be I am wrong.

DVD- no. May be if you re-solder resistors on DVD PCB- it will be possible. Map- yes. Read here- it is about Australia - but UK should be similar

AU version AVIC-F40BT- known as AVIC-Z140BT and it has so called "2012 maps".Official navi is hopeless IMHO. Now couple of guys in Russia work for make stable hack for few programs, but main problem they have - it plays sounds only if you have mp3 playing. if it DVD, radio or you have it on OFF mode - there will be no sound from third party navi software. Here is a picture of F930BT running 7ways software (with OSM -open source map) and bluetooth over the top- making call. And it has 6 satellites connected.

European FM steps=Australian FM steps, So you can't have problem with Radio. I had problem because my HU is X930BT=US unit. But now it is solved.

I did it to my unit and now it thinks it is .... European F940bt... %))I'll try "3A" then... Update: 3A leads to the same: Language UK English (and hips of EU languages) Voice: UK English (without TTS!) (and hips of EU languages)... according to Pionara we have: 3 = 3,D,13,20,24,29,2D,34,38,3A (Australia) So I'll continue to try. Sorry Pionara... I'am idiot %)) I need to change 05 00 a0 e1 to 38 00 a0 e3 Success! Unit thinks it is in Australia now! Voice: English Australia (TTS) Also I got school zone signs. %)) But User Interface: UK English -is it Ok?

I had AplLib.dll modified for 3.000 and my unit pertended to be Australian and had EU settings for FM. So it is possible to do just software hack for region. Now I would like to give it a go for 4.010 but I stuck at installing hackmode... "There is no applicable program" error after hackmode instalation. Can we just replace files in software update? or use your supertestmode to replace 2 files? (Navi.exe and AplLib.dll)

I have same problem: "There is no applicable program" It was after I updated my x930bt to 4.000 and to 4.010... I put an update again and unit works again. Than I trid to reinstall hackmode again and got same error. Dear Condi can you please check what's going on?

I wonder if FM step wll be changed.

Can someone share a backup from NDATA\NDATA\Sound and TTSData folders from X940 or Z140 (US/CAN) divice with 4.00 or 4.01 software please! It can be even backup from X920 X930 or Z120 Z130 updated to 40-th series. I need to restore language folders after Australian update. %))

Dear Pionara, Thank you for your guidance. Can you also upload Ndata folder from X940BT-ish (without maps) I have problem with voice prompts and I hope I can fix it by copy "sound" folder from US unit. Also "TTSData" need some tweaks. But after update my unit has Australian files in that folders, so I need US files. Another funny error after update: "Fastfood nerby" link leads to search parking nerby...

Thanks a lot! It works! Pionara- you are magician! Now I can search map by address. Downsides: Languages screwed up. unit still thinks it is US. but it has no US language now. Tomorrow I'll add US English to it.

Here is an Australian cardinfo.cifCARDINFO.cif.txt I just add .txt to get around this forum restriction.

hmmm... I've tried- but no success. Update just not started. I have US unit and Australian map update. So, do I miss something?

I've got an update, here is VERINFO.DAT from Australian update: †ög>1Ãèð¶]|ÄAe¾{a‘S–¶xÃ.(ù®ýy¦¨ VERINFO.DAT

I hope I'll get copy of update card soon.

Pioneer Australia is strange... prices for HUs are almost twice compare to US ones, no WR at all, no satelite radio here.- even update prices - US one- 120USD, AU- 200+USD. For map that almost 4 times smaler. And they look like you need to beg them to get update even if you have money... ugly... So I can't wait when someone hack these units and I'll run normal IGO on it. As far as I know modified portspliter does exist, so only problem is integrating third party navi to existing shell. According to the guy who made portspliter: navi.exe also draws lots of settings windows, so it is not a opt

Have you all noticed that when you just start your car and HU is still boots- reverse picture is much higher quality and refresh rate is higher (direct commutation?), but after a few seconds it flickers and now on it is low quality and luggy- looks like it was heavily processed and we have this text above?... so it would be great if someone can figure it out how to prevent it to switch to this mode completely.

Interesting. I have check it from my pc couple of days ago it was no "add to cart" button. And to get quote I need to log in. Then they ask me few questions and one was "your HU serial number"...

Yes. My HU is Us one, and at least another one has European HU... so we can't send our Serial numbers to pioneer-Australia.

I've found a man with map.

As far as I know he already got update card. But if he don't respond we need to search another person who can get update. Pioneer wants to supply serial number of the local unit.
