If your seeing the test mode, after you removed the SD card and after the reset then you copied the entire SD card to your unit. Start the process over and only copy the CONTENTS of the "My Flash Disk" folder on the SD Card to the "My Flash Disk" drive on your unit.

Yep, read the rest of the thread and you'll find new links.

Just go through the process again from start to finish and your good to go. The upgrade of the firmware formats the disk

Go Into the My Flash Disk FOLDER, and copy the contents of this folder to the My Flash Disk drive.

Glad to hear! Hopefully the install does go smoothly, but if it doesn't there's a whole community here to help =P

Thanks heaps I really hope that's not a sarcastic comment...The links are there and it seems that I (and others) have to continuously post links or references to where there at because others cannot take the time to read a thread.

Review the last few pages of this thread. Links are there somewhere

How HUGE is huge? I might be able to help out =P

If you would've read my earlier post: 2nd, not to be demeaning, but if your really that computer illiterate that you can't follow two excellent articles that have been written on this subject and are still on page 1...then maybe you shouldn't be performing this process...you should contact Pioneer for the official version so they can offer you the support you will/may need in order to get this process completed.

Try downloading the files again, or do an md5 sum on the rar's to ensure they are not corrupt. (I posted the MD5 hashes in the 3.0 update thread on page 40 something...

Glad to hear! I would like to take this opportunity to stress (again) that at the point the instructions say to copy files from your SD Card to your unit, only copy the contents of the "My Flash Disk" folder on the SD Card, to the "My Flash Disk" Drive on your Avic unit.

No Mac in my home! Just PC for me. I followed instructions precisely, however, I may just have corrupted files perhaps? I would like to start over, but I find it difficult due to inability to access Windows CE mode again nor can just update via SD card when inserting with version update and starting up car. I may be S.O.L...Not too sure how I can unbrick when system keeps shutting down via both ways of updating. Place only the testmode folder from the extracted files onto an SD Card, that should get you into WinCE once you turn the unit on. I posted the MD5 Hash in my original post on

How about making your own thread then instead of spamming others? All of the posts I needed were correct. This article got two AVIC units updated in about 30 minutes to 3.0...why should anyone pay you $60 for whats posted here already for free? And once there on 3.0, why is there a need to pay you another $85 to get to 3.02 which is a 5-10 minute process?

Copy everything that was extracted to the SD Card. Then when you put it in the AVIC, you copy the contents of the My Flash Disk Folder to the My Flash Disk Drive.

50 bucks, huh? Or everyone can follow simple instructions and READ all of the posts listed on this thread and do it yourself and SAVE your money and donate it to the fine folks that have countless time and effort making the mods. Exactly...how much do you wanna bet that he's using the files I provided Maybe I should start charging for each download =P
