deemorz Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 Hello, I was in the process of updating to the 2013 maps when my door was opened and the power shut off to the radio. It kept saying No Program Available - I was able to boot into test mode and started copying over a backed up User file for firmware 3.20 x930bt. When the radio restarted it says Update Found and starts installing, gets to 64% and then says Update Failed, Restarting. It gets stuck in this loop forever. I have tried using testmode.key again but it never boots into testmode. I have tried putting in the 2013 update sd card and it doesn't register. I have tried removing the radio fuse for 30 mins and still nothing. Am I bricked? Is there any hope to call Pioneer or do I need to just buy a new unit? Let me know if you need additional details - thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
anttid Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 So you update a radio and turn the key off? Seems a fitting outcome for such carelessness! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
deemorz Posted January 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 If the key is on acc mode and you have the doors closed then you open the door the power shuts off even if the key is on. But thanks for the help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But thanks for the help. Still careless non the less. Pioneer can always load the software back for a fee! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nosaJ-11C7 Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 Hi Deemorz, Sorry to hear of your troubles Just to make sure, you tried inserting an SD card with TESTMODE.KEY before turning on the radio? If you see that something is running on the radio, I would expect it should check the SD card on boot, although maybe not after the update program starts (unlike during the normal radio application).
