benraphael510 Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 Guys who have already successfully bought and installed the update - when you login to Pioneer's site to get your activation code, you are given the instructions to: AVIC-220U Points of Interest Download Information Step 1 Download the "Optional POI data for 2010" file by clicking here. Once you have downloaded the file to your computer, locate the file on your computer and double click the file to decompress it. If you do not have a decompression utility installed on your computer, you can download WinZip at http://www.winzip.com (purchase may be required). Step 2 Open the file and copy the "NDB" folder and "CARDINFO.CRF" file onto the root of the SD Card. *Note: Ensure this file is located on the top layer of the SD Card. Make sure that the SD Card follows these requirements: - Greater then 512MB My question is: which SD card are you supposed to unlock and copy these files on to? I tried doing it with my own blank SD card separately after completing the initial updates with the two SD cards sent from Pioneer and that didn't work. Before unlocking the Pioneer SD CARD #1, copying and pasting the two files for the POI update, I wanted to see if anyone else has done this or whether this is Pioneer's intent... I don't want to mistakenly screw up radio here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bwolfe Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 I downloaded the file and put it on the SD card I keep in the unit and it sends back an error that its incompatible with this model. Is this optional upgrade even for the Z110BT? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stevencina Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 I also had the same problem, anybody figured out yet how to install the POI"S? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tiger1 Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 Same problem and error message here also. Wrong version will not install on this device. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DJ KIDD Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 This upgrade is to give the AVIC-U220 the same POIs as the other navs. Am I reading this right that you are trying to update a Z110BT? The U220 is the add on nav for the AV units. It comes with the same number of POIs as the AVIC-U310BT, but Pioneer is offering a free upgrade to give it the same number as the X920 and Z120. That's why you are getting an incompatible device error. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stevencina Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 Yes updated the z110 to z120 and tried poi updates...Sounds like you are saying that we don't need them as they are already in the z120...Am I correct?? Thanks for the reply...Steve Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DJ KIDD Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 Correct, they are already there.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
