bobmun Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 I installed that gracenote update when it first came out and I had no problem at all with the update not 1 retry! I would try downloading it again on a different computer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dodgeboy Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 Hyperite, you are the MAN! Thank you for figuring this out. I vote you get the bypass bounty for packaging this in a way that's easy for us Z2 guys to update... even if it is technically Pioneer's bypass. Thanks again! Going outside now to update mine.

bigred Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 ok, so I am going to be doing this tommorow. one question, I already have my 2 wires hooked grounded on my Z2, should I worry that doing the update with them grounded could screw something somehow? or am I just thinking too much?

Nope, you can either ground the wires before or after running the update, but before the bypass works you just need to press the reset button on the faceplate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
frstrtdmac Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 ok now for the funny part, we just did this in my neighbors.. It loaded right away.. now just to do the 2 wire bypass mod.. yeah!! sorry but does anyone have the direct link to the 2 wire bypass mod? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
frstrtdmac Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 nm did a search and found it.. thanks again guys!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dodgeboy Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 The update went flawlessly. It took less than 10 minutes. It rebooted and the time and volume settings (beep, guidance, etc.) were set to defaults, but all other settings were retained. Do I still need to hit the reset button? It seems like it reset itself. I can't test the 2-wire bypass until tomorrow when it's light out. Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm looking for someone that has a stock Z2 that was able to successfully update theirs... Thanks, Dave I just did thye update from Hyperite's download and instructions. My Z2 is an Apr 07 build. Can't remember if my software was Version 1. but now it's reading Ver 2. However, I couldn't tell if it updated or not because it never said one way or the other. After I inserted, it said CD-ROM inserted and nothing else. Checked Service Info in Settings and now says Ver 2. I don't have the 2-wire installed yet, so can't say it's bypassed. Any comments?

Did you hit map, and answer yes to the update question? It goes through some gyrations that take about 10 minutes. if you didn't see that, it's not updated (yet).

If not (and I'd be surprised if not) then you're good to go! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
