Yes, I'm connected to the cd-i100 with no other external power source. The adapter works great for me.

I tried this adapater with my Ipod Touch 2G and my AVIC Z1 and it works great! http://cablejive.com/iphone_3g_charge_converter.html I bought the smaller/cheaper version that does not have the USB port.

I just installed the FTP image with the new part 1....no problems!!! Thanks to everyone. I didn't use the entire image, instead I used the instructions provided to maintain my music and settings from my old Z2 image and just applied the new maps and software partitions. This was all done on the original Z1 unit. Oh yeah, no reboots from voice command. Hopefully everything stays stable.

Thanks for the writeup garrettoomey! I feel ALOT more comfortable doing this now.

Thanks for everyone's work! Would someone care to post a walkthru on how to retain your music and settings with the new image?

I am using the toshiba 60gb MK6034GAX hard drive and had no reboot issues so far. Thanks everyone for all your help! I now have more music space and the system does respond quicker.

Can you psot the links for parts 8 and 9? For some reason, I can get parts 1-7 to download by clicking on your links, but trying to manually enter parts 8 and 9 aren't working for me. Thanks!!

I'd definetly be interested also.

I would also be interested in getting a Z2 image.

I just noticed in the support section for the Z1 on pioneers site, there is now a tab for "firmware". Nothing is under the tab as of yet. Does anyone know if we should be expecting a FMM update soon? I'm guessing it may give us the same bypass problems Z2 owners are having right now.....

Not an expert here, but.....in reading through all these posts, it looks like the the file should be on the hard drive. I believe someone posted that they put a Z1 hard drive in a Z2 and the Z2 was bypassed. Once the Z2 hard drive was put back in.....they were back at a dead end. Am I understanding this right? Looks to me that the hard drive is the place we should be looking rather than the flash memory.

I know this may seem pretty simple minded but....has anyone checked the service info screen. Has anything changed there. Maybe something to do with the bypass???

I thought I remembered someone syaing there is a way to unlock a Hard drive for free, but will erase all the data. Sounds like that wouldn't be a concern in this case in that his hard drive is formatted anyway. Now the only thing is getting him an image of a drive. Just a thought....

For those who have tried imaging their hard drive and it didn't work.....did you happens to use a hash program such as MD5 or SHA-1 to verify the copy is an exact copy?
