You can try this site.

http://www.6ave.com/shop/SearchResults. ... cnsd-100fm

they only ship within the US. As far as I know the legal updates are a one unit deal. You will need to go to the Pioneer site and get a password for each unit. That is unless you want to try to mod them.

Thanks for that.

Wait Wait Wait. They want me to pay $120 to upgrade their crap software on the crap product?

 

The previous firmware upgrade was free.

I think my update failed. Anytime i have TTS on on certain times I get the GPS reading HEX Numbers. I remember during update i had to select retry 5 times during progress bar.

 

I still have the SD card update and map update does anyone know how i can reinstall the update?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated :D

FYI if you have not purchased your 3.0 update yet for the F series.

Crutchfield.com is selling the update for $59.99 which is HALF of what Pioneer is selling it for on their website.

I just went to Cruchfiled, and they are out of stock. :(

UPDATE: I just ordered from 6ave.com and got the update for only $51 no shipping or taxes. :D

 

 

Crutchfield now is selling for $119.00

 

I just purchased form 6ave.com for $60.00 no shipping or taxes.

My Pioneer update came in today, and I immediately upgraded my unit. Went Flawless. Can anyone confirm that it wont work on multiple units? Has anyone tried?

HELP...I have a brick!

 

Unfortunately I started out trying do the the 3.0 upgrade via instructions from the Hacks/Mods forum and ended up on this thread.

 

I downloaded the Pioneer Update 3.0 zip which contains the following:

 

SD1:

Australian_model (folder), Eurpoean_model (folder), LPUE080 (folder), North_American_model (folder), Russian_Model (folder) and .ds_store

SD2:

CONF (folder), Flash (folder), LPUE080 (folder), Renewal (folder), Discinfo.txt, Diskid.dat, msnd.firmware.z

 

 

Here's what I did:

1. I updated CE by getting to the blue menu, selecting update CE, by SD. Did that.

2. Now when I turn on the unit WITH the SD card in it boots to WinCE (testmode).

3. I then copied the contents of the FLASH (folder) to the "My Flash Disk" folder

 

When I do all this after removing the SD card I get a black screened brick

 

PLEASE HELP.

Yes I agree...

We bought a product, promised there would be updates to fix all the bugs...and now this supposedly does and they want us to pay 120$?

 

What are they thinking?...

Guys, for the 100th time, you're not paying for the firmware. You're paying for the new maps that are included with the new firmware.

Is there a way JUST to get the firmware then?

I really don't have a need for new maps.

 

Thanks.

Legitimately, no, unfortunately.

is there an update to 3.0 yet?

Not officially, however some people have loaded the 3.0101 update from the X Series on the F Series.

Posted Dec 14, 2009 · 05:21 UTC#67

I believe the 2.006 firmware is the closest thing you will get to a free 3.0 firmware from Pioneer.

The update from Pioneer and it's contents:

Hi to everyone. I am new here, and my English is not so well...

I have one problem with my F900BT. Why doesn't work this function on my AVIC: http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/ ... +Bluetooth

 

Is that Voice Recognition only for F900BT for US market...

When I push buton for that function, I just hear sound like windows error...

 

Thank you for any help...
