afd1962 Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 If Im understanding this correctly, will this work on an upgraded z1? My bypass stopped working when I upgraded. (flashers upgrade) I hope so. Upgraded what to what? 1st Gen Z1 - > Bluetooth Updated Z1? Either Z1 -> 1st Gen Z2? If you're asking if this disc will allow a unit to bypass by flashing the lights, I'm gonna say 'no', even though I have no direct evidence of that. I know it wont work I upgraded from z1 to z2 and the bypass for z1 doesn't work anymore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

After you use the Z1 to Z2 upgrade does the 2 wire bypass still work? That is the only question still left unanswered. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
palacios Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 OK, I just got a hold of that disk. But haven't tried it yet. From what I understand if you stick it in to a Z2, it will take 10 minutes and make it bypassable and nothing else changes. If you stick it into a Z1, it will take hours and make it into a bypassable Z1. But I don't have a Z2 to test this myself. I wanted to backup my Z1 before updating my personal one. I know you haven't done the upgrade yet but do you know if you're gonna need to insert an activation code during the process? I hope this hasn't already been answered. Last I read, only the Z2 does not require activation. If it will require the activation, we can probably write a Z2 image into the HDD and then do the update, right? In theory that should work. I still have the June Z2 image I downloaded from rage2 last week if you would like to go this route after you find out about the activation for Z1s. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ducatiboy Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 I'm going to try it tonight. If it needs an activation code I'm stuck. I have a Z2 image I can stick on and then do the update if I wish, I just might do that too. But I was told no code for the Z2's.... will check when I try it in my Z1.

pDawg Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 So I have a question. Would it really be illegal to share the image with current Z2 owners? The disk is to update Z1's to Z2's. Those of us with Z2's aren't gaining anything, except the bypass (hopefully). If they are controlling pirating by requiring a key to update Z1's and no key for Z2, then I would think that they don't really care if you use it to update your Z2.
