I posted the torrent link in the first post. Those who have grabbed the image from the FTP/HTTP, please help seed!
I have the files that I download via ftp yesterday. They looked good in Acronis home 11, but I don't have my drinve in yet to test them in the unit. I'd be happy to seed them for you, but I don't know how to add them to your torrent without downloading it myself first. Any suggestions?

Remember, you needed to re-download the first file that was uploaded again today, otherwise you'll get an "image corrupt" message. Even if you haven't done that yet, you can seed the rest.
Open the torrent in uTorrent, then stop it. Right click on it and go to "Advanced->Set Download Location", and click to where the files are on your computer. Right click the torrent again and hit "Force Recheck", which will take a few minutes (and should go up to 100%). Then press the start button and you'll be seeding!

Working on it now. Yea, I think I'll let the first file download and force recheck on all the others. Then once it completes, I'll seed as much bandwidth as I can squeez through the night at the very least. I'll have to be a little more stingy during the day as my wife will need the comp for school. Thanks again! Can't wait to get my HD so I can get started.
Seeding now. Hope it helps! I'm only able to squeeze out around 120kb up. Sorry. I'm running in unlimited mode.
Grabbing the 1st image again fixed the problem. She's writing to the drive with acronis 10. Thanks everyone, particularly those that provided the rest of us with the image.

Seeding now using the instructions above
My appologies to everyone that wasted their time downloading my image. I don't have my bluetooth module installed yet, and thus, never have tested the voice feature,
Sorry....
-as a roll my head away in shame....
I really would like to know wtf on this. Too bad Im in NY while my car is in San Diego, will test ASAP.
Anyone know if the unit requires a special microphone or what? I hear that the bluetooth phone on these things is almost unusable due to background noise, echo's, etc, etc I figure a special mic could help?
Z3image "voice command" finally working on Z1 Model using original HDD. I used the FTP Image.
Sorry....

Septic,
We really appreciate the effort that you put forth to get access to the image for everyone. You had no way to know it had that bug. Thanks!
Yeah, even MPS didn't know there was a problem cause he didn't have his mic plugged in either!Septic,We really appreciate the effort that you put forth to get access to the image for everyone. You had no way to know it had that bug. Thanks!
Just wanted to say thanks for posting the image!!!!!!!!
FTP - This will be very fast...
Holy crap, no kidding! I'm getting 9.3mbs down!
So, FTP d/l finished in about 3 hours. Waited for a lunch break to drop it onto the Z1's HDD (took about 20 minutes) and took it to the car.
Thank god my Franken-Z (Z1, upped to Z2, upped to Z2/Z3 Mash-Up) took the firmware update and is now a true Z3. Voice commands work perfectly (not that I use them).
Current versions:
VERSION: 03.0000
CDDB: 07-01-0030
PLATFORM: 3.000100
GPS PROGRAM: 1.200000
HDD APPLICATION: 3.100200
Wait a minute... The FTP Z3 image has the old CDDB? lol. At least that can be updated.
Hmm...so this is not the virgin z3 drive...the CDDB is not updated...weird...i am still using the harddrive i bought for $160 on ebay..everything is fine 
updated from z2 and now i have a z3 with all correct numbers and voice commands work...wish knew how to make an image so you guys have a REAL VIRGIN z3 image. This is weird how it works for some people, and then doesn't for others.

No, all this means is that the Z3 the image was made from was manufactured before the CDDB update was applied to Pioneer's master.
Done and being seeded.I posted the torrent link in the first post. Those who have grabbed the image from the FTP/HTTP, please help seed!
Wanted to give my thx from a new member for all the hard work and time all have put into this lil slice of heaven! 
Sorry for the ignorance, how do you join the 14 .tib files together?
Thanks.
Don't need to, Acronis does it automagically for you

Thank you BigFloppy.
Still seeding. So, I have a question for those of you that have applied the image. With the voice commands... by chance can we use the voice commanbd as it should have been set up in the first place.
Example <pressing green phone button> <Talking to Sheila(I had to name it because I find myself talking to it WAY too much)> "Call home" <Pressing Voice icon/button> Connected.
Because in reality, mine works more like this... <Pressing gree button> <Talking to Sheila> "Call, Call phone number, <spitting out numbers instead of a phone lable/name> <Pressing voice icon> Call connected.
Seems like a few wasted steps. Plus I don't memorize every phone number that I use. That would be some 150 or more numbers... who does that? I was just wondering if the voice command had been improved any at all. I notice someone already commented that the "listening quality" wasn't improved.
Thanks for everyone who provided the Z3 image. I orginally downloaded the septicdeath image via megaupload and was happy until...
I downloaded from the FTP site and am down seeding for bittorrent to help give back to the community.
Thank you to everyone... hyperlite... septicdeath... FTP hosting person, everyone. I really hope I can contribute back in some way as this community has made my AVIC experience fantastic..

ftp z3 upgrade success.
Tested it for several hours today. I used as many features as I could. Voice recognition seems improved. I increased my music partition from 9.8 GB to exactly 30 GB. My capacity went from 52+ % down to 16+%. Okay math majors.... how many gigs of music do I have ?
My drive is a 60GB toshiba MK6034GAX
Thanks to everyone. AVIC411.com rocks
