redsox0229 Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Hello, I've had my pioneer head unit since 2008. I currently have 2.0008 installed on my system. For awhile now it has been lagging and certain features have stopped working. I figured since my radio was so old it wouldn't have anymore updates, but I recently found 3.0 and 4.0 online. I noticed that these are for European radios. So my question is this: since these updates are for European radios, can they be used on an American system? If so, where can I go to update my radio? Would you recommend 3.0 or 4.0? What are the differences? Finally, will this update my maps? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
w4rh4wk Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 The US firmwares are here. 3.x in my opinion should have been v1.0. It was the first most stable firmware for these units. My f700bt stopped crashing and was faster with the 3.x firmware. 4.0 has updated maps and a couple more features/bugs fixes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
redsox0229 Posted November 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 Do you have a link for the firmware updates? I noticed that 3 and 4 are for European radios only. Can I use this on my American radio? Will this cause problems? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
w4rh4wk Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 .... well normally they are US versions (unless otherwise stated). This one has it http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/27807-fx31-complete-firmware-image/page-55 this works on the F700, F900, X710, x910... and a couple of others.
