just burned without verify and it works... by my area isn't there!!

What area??

I can verify that the disc did NOT work for me as well. Update programming went fine, but my home in Central NJ (Near Rutgers University) did not show up closer than 0.5 miles. 0.1 or 0.02 mile zoom mode produced only a blue background (with POI intact) but no map road data. As a result the unit said it could not calculate any trip due to insufficient map data near the start or ending point. Other areas in my address book (MD, VA) could zoom in to max levels without problems.

Quick guide to get back to 80MT if you have a burn/disc failure:

1) Change language to French with the 90MT disc and let it reprogram fully.

2) Let unit "reset" itself and change language to english (as soon as you hit english press the eject button) You want to hit eject before any programming has taken place.

3) The unit will say insert appropiate disc

4) Insert your old 80MT disc and let it reprogram/reflash the unit. You will then be back to normal with a working disc and you will not have to resort to test mode or service mode with the remote control.

I applaud SWDW for stepping up and getting a version of these discs out to people. I just wish it was in ISO format so we could tell if there is a problem with the files in the torrent or with our burners.

For the record I have never had any issues with my DL burner and my 80 MT discs burned from the get go without any problems.

In my imaginary perfect world the torrent file would be split into 2 separate files (East and West) and should contain 3 files each:

1) nfo explaining exactly what each disc is with perhaps a log of the ISO creation

2) CNDV-90MT_East.iso / CNDV-90MT_West.iso

3) sfv or Par2 or md5 file to verify that the iso file is correct and uncorrupted

This would verify that everyone has a perfect copy of the disc and any errors could be related to bad media/bur errors.

I would like to hear if anyone has a working copy of the files as they stand now and if so how/what you used to burn them.

My 80 MT disc was a UDF format (which is what I used to burn the 90MT as well). An iMac 20" was used with Toast 10. Burn straight from files in UDF format.

Edited for typos to help clarify.

Anyone seeding?

You have me wondering now so i have been checking and testing

I can find nothing wrong with the ISO that i have made. i have the real disks and checked them in my unit against the ISO and everything work fine. However im re doing them direct right from the disk to ISO with mD5 and udf. I'm think about re posting them. You have me wondering!!!!!!

SWDW

Well the disc burned and seemed to do the update just fine. The map data appears to be OK. I still have to drive around to see if there are any glitches or problems, but on my unit the update worked fine via the East Disc.

 

I use a memorex DVD+R DL disc and burned at 2x on a 20" iMac with toast. Used UDF as the disc format.

 

EDIT:

 

After more testing the map data is not fully functional. The unit will upgrade, but you can not calculate a route due to insufficient map data. I am still trying to play with settings to get a working copy.

I check mine and they work fine ..However should i re post them in ISO direct from disks with md5 and udf turned on.. i would like to see a few more post on if they work for anybody!!

I used poweriso to create the iso file and to burn it to disk and it worked flawlessly no problems here my unit is updated and ready to go!

The only issue I am having with the disc is the loading of the XM logos for each channel.

The system updated normally and the map data is working fine.

Ok so I opened the .rar file with with Unrarx. Now what? I extracted all the files to a folder on my desktop. I'm lost now. When I did the 80mt it extracted an iso file and burned that directly.

Any help would be appreciated. I've got a mac just for info

Thanks for the upload and all the instructions guys. I used UltraISO to make the iso and GBurner to burn it to a DL DVD. Popped it in my Avic-N3 and all is well. Thanks again.

Thank you for letting us an me know

Just downloaded the West disc torrent, and was disappointed after 28 hours to learn that it does not contain an ISO file.

You cannot just copy all of the files from the map disc and re-burn them onto another disc. You must perform a perfect bit-by-bit copy of the original disc and save it as an ISO image file. The Pioneer navigation units will not operate with discs that are not 1:1 copies of the original. I would recommend pulling down that torrent before it becomes too widespread and begins bricking navigation units.

Does anybody have an ISO IMAGE of the original disc available (and NOT an ISO created from the files contained in the posted torrent)?

hmmmmm. I tried what PT3005 said but when I reach the part where im suppose to "Open the Pioneer East CNDV_90MT folder and you will see the files, select all of the files right click and select poweriso and another menu will popup select Add To Image File..." I dont see a selection ANYWHERE. What am I doin wrong???

Hmmm, SWDW I think you should re-due this torrent just to be safe on things. Try and get an actual ISO IMAGE file. I think you should jus to be real safe. I havent installed nothin yet since Im still havin trouble tryin to use PowerISO

hmmm you didnt see a box open to the side? when you selected poweriso?

I dont even get the option to select PowerISO at all

Tanks SWDW is working I will keep seeding as much I can

You guys are seeding an improper copy of the map discs. If this copy doesn't brick your navigation system altogether, your device will no longer load the map data or search the POI database correctly. I would highly recommend waiting until a real ISO image appears... using the files contained in this torrent will cause problems. Using PowerISO to create an ISO from this torrent is NOT the correct way to create a working map disc.

Of all the people who have downloaded this torrent so far, nobody has reported 100% success when using the new discs.

I would recommend using gburner to anyone. I've used it to burn my copies of Windows Vista and Windows 7. UltraISO seemed to do well on making the iso from the files too. It was my first time using it and it was simple. You can get any of the above mentioned software from warez-bb.org. Serials and all. I guess I should've mentioned that I have not done a test on the discs while driving. Although I did calculate the 17 mile route to my work while sitting in my driveway and it did fine. I'll test it on the way to work in the morning and report back.

I think this is only one layer of a dual layer disc i show 4.?? gig for total

may be wrong tho

SWDW can you check the original disk and tell me what is the volume name and total size ?. Thanks this will eliminate some of the confusion.

Seems like some one got it 100% working? Any one seeding anymore? I got nothing on torrent.

bjamerican is totally correct - and the original torrent, including all the seeders, should be pulled to avoid anyone else burning non-working/non-fully working/damaging copies. To reiterate: The extraction from the original should be an ISO - burning an ISO from straight copied files will not work.

that's correct! cause there are a lot of hidden files wasn't copied.

Now what my friends...

yeah i notice that my quick poi's are not showing up on my map anymore, but i was able to burn the maps using tdk disc but i wasted 15bucks on 5pk of memorex dl disc because of errors , so the guy is saying create iso's then rar it perfect program would be imgburn to create the iso's from disc then rar it.
