Hyperformance Gurl Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 When did the 2nd generation Z2s come out? I just installed mine in the middle of April. I'm going to have to check the box for that yellow dot...I still have it. I'm going to be so angry if it doesn't have that yellow dot. I've been following this thread hoping for a bypass, and I'm anxious to get this fixed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dimaj Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 wait a second... If i remember correctly, the only difference between Z1 and Z2 is the software... If that's the case, and that yellow-dotted unit is in fact bypassable, all we have to do is get a patch from Pioneer to upgrade our systems, right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This is kindof what we are all hopeing for. who knows, maybe the bluetooth will suddenly come out with an upgrade disk again, or gracenotes, who knows? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HenryJ Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 Remember it seemed that the only files resposible for changing the bypass from "original" Z1 to the "after bluetooth" Z1 were the "HMIManager" in the APL folder of the PRG1 folder and the "PRG.FLG" that must be placed into the SDATA partition. .....Is it possible that these same files from the "yellow dot" Z2 could replace those appropriatly into the earlier Z2 for success? Anybody with the "Yellow dot" Z2 care to provide those files for the cause? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HenryJ Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 My point being...let's look into the PRG0 & PRG1 APL folders of the yellow dot Z2 for the HMIManager as a starting point...or let's try replacing the entire PRG0 & PRG1 folders. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I may have heard some rumors that if you remove the drive before powering on the unit it could have been shipped unlocked, however this is very rare. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rolexis Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Well someone will have to provide me with directions for unlocking HDD, lets see if we can get this to work, looks like it has been a pain in the ass for everybody If it does have tbe yellow dot I will NOT power it up until someone can tell me what to do again... pray for the dot Quote Link to post Share on other sites
