  1. Take care, this update seems to be specific to the 2012 avics, applying it to a 2011 model may damage it if I got their documentation right... Maybe there are still some minor HW differences between the f930bt and the f940bt. This update seems to change also the UCOM software... I really hope that they provide an update for the 2011 models as well

    Thank you for the advice! Right now, I'm not too tempted to try it anyway, as I don't have any of the cable stuff (Lightning adapter or that Pioneer cable) yet 8)  So before spending that money it would be nice to know whether it works or not...

  2. kowe, did you read my post #149? According to the informations Pioneer provided in march you need the CD-IV202NAVI cable not the CD-IV202 for the f930bt. However it is not clear if the required software support for that cable is included in the 2013 map update. To me it seems almost as if Pioneer dropped the planed Iphone 5 AppMode support for the f930bt and f940bt. At least I never heard of anyone who got the Iphone 5 working in AppMode with these avics... I can send you the presentation I am referring to, but you can also find some useful information via the link I provided (x940bt is the same hardware as your f930bt, it is just the US version with newer maps...)

    A new firmware update is available for the f940bt that enables support of the iphone 5:

    In the documentation (http://www.pioneer.eu/files/support/AVIC-Fx40BT/2013%20Map%20Update/CWW7828B-GB.pdf) it clearly says "

    This firmware update is necessary only if you own an iPhone with Lightning connector and
    if you want to enjoy AppRadio Mode, music and/or video playback from your iPhone with
    Lightning connector."
     
    I wonder if I could simply install this on top of the update to firmware 5.000 from this thread...
  3. Hello everybody,

     

    I have a Avic F930BT (with the July 2012 update installed, so it's a F940bt in the end).
    In the TMC menu with the traffic information list the "update" button (it's "Aktualisieren" in German, I suppose it must be "update" in English) shows up whenever there is new information available.

     

    Is there a way to directly load the new TMC messages? If the button appears, the system must know that there is something new, so why not directly update?

     

    Another way would be to run the update in certain time intervals, let's say every 5 minutes. Maybe the timing interval is already set in the system, however it might be interesting to set it to longer/shorter intervals.

     

    Does anyone have an idea on this topic? Is it, to anyone's knowledge implemented in one of the mods?

     

    Thanks,

    best regards,
