JohnK Posted July 12, 2014 Report Share Posted July 12, 2014 I apologize, can you specify which instructions? I followed the instructions in the first post and I am on 5.0 now... *** 5.1 install info *** Here, I'll try to be a little more helpful -- Start at the top of this thread (it's 12 pages long now), and on each page search for "5.1". You can follow the conversation through the thread. Note post #77 which I believe identifies the location of the download. You have to click on the Firmware tab .. but for convenience here are the destination links:Firmware Update: http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/StaticFiles/PUSA/Files/Car-Firmware/AVIC-Z140BH_FW-Update_v5.100.zip Instructions: http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/StaticFiles/PUSA/Files/Car-Firmware/AVIC-Z140BH_X940BT_FW-Update_v5.100_NOTICE.pdf Also note post #38 which gives you the location of the hack byte to turn off the nag screen Please also note at least a few of the posts state that 5.1 was released only to provide a couple of additional iPhone5 capabilities, which you may not care about. *** Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There is a 5.1 release which is specific to a couple of features related to the iPhone5. Check out the description of the firmware update on the z140bt web page at Pioneer's web site (you can use the URL noted in post #77) to understand if this will give you anything useful. I just updated to 5.1 because it was there and was the latest possible software release ... I own an iPhone 4S so I don't know that I will be taking advantage of any of it's features.

Ashkaan Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 4. Copy your patched NAVI.exe to the SD where you have TestMode.key and insert in the HU - should boot you directly into Testmode. Did not work.. I put TestMode.key and the patched NAVI.exe on an SD card an I only got uCOM options.. No File Manager. How do I do it correctly? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It looks like there is a 2014 version of the software out from Pioneer, but I don't think anyone has upgraded to it yet? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blue Posted July 20, 2014 Report Share Posted July 20, 2014 I did the hardware hack when I originally installed my unit. I did the software update and everything went well. I assume that the hardware mod is still working. Random question....... When I go to system information I don't see all those entry..... All I have is two lines of information... One say 5.000. I guess everything went well Quote Link to post Share on other sites

photousa Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 Is anyone else having trouble download this update: 2013 USA-CANADA MAP UPDATE.zip ? I have google drive and it doesn't seem to matter..so slow it would take days to download.. Question about this download: http://www.pioneerel...date_v5.100.zip I'm using a Z110BT running 3.0, will this update bring me up to Z140BH ? Does the update include 2013 maps? Is it a good idea to update to 5.1? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Is it a good idea to update to 5.1? Thanks I just d/l in about 7 minutes - so the problem is on your end. The 5.10 update is only a patch for 5.0 - which is the 2013 upgrade you haven't installed yet. Don't try installing it - it probably won't do anything anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
