alex5857 Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 I installed a bootleg 3.0 firmware, then installed the 3.01 x series update, im trying to downgrade to 2.0006, or whatever it was. im downloading the backup now but i have no clue on how to go about this. The reason im downgrading is because im sending my unit into pioneer for repair. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GeezMo76 Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Hopefully you made a copy of the original "2.0 MYFlashDisk" before you started modding the unit. If not, you will need to obtain a copy on this forum somewhere. Boot into testmode and blow away your current "MyFlashDisk" then copy the 2.0 back over in its place. Why are you sending the unit in for repair? In my opinion it would have to be on fire before I sent it to Pioneer for them to fix it. Pioneer is clueless when it comes to fixing anything on this unit. All they are probably going to do is reload the software again anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
alex5857 Posted October 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 Yeah, im downloading it.. Im sending it in for various problems, my dvd is stuck in the drive and wont come out, the GPS is inaccurate by about 20feet ahead, and i get the alternator whine, and i grounded it and it still wont go away. Im hoping they would just send me a newly re-furbished unit . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for contributing nothing to my thread though. Have a box of tissues Seriously though, twenty feet is definitely in tolerance for GPS error; this isn't military spec we're talking about here. I highly doubt the whine is of any fault of the unit; whines are caused not only by poor grounding but also by different paths being taken for the +12v between the amp and the AVIC. The DVD is unfortunate but easy enough for them to remove, perhaps replace a defective ejection motor or solenoid and send you back the same unit. To boot, I don't know that you can downgrade from 3.0 to 2.0 because of the difference in WinCE firmware. This may be a non-issue but to any observant tech, it'll be a dead giveaway that you're trying to fool them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
