Pioneer posted a new firmware update yesterday:

Good find.

Did anyone updated yet? I was wondering if it included the fixes from Europe version update that fixed the Blue-tooth freezing problem(never admitted by Pioneer).!!

I went through the update and managed to extract the contents from WINCEIMG.bin (thanks to carver for info)

Here are the dumps of the eboot and wince42 nb0 files

So what do these files do when loaded into the unit?

Can you please provide the passwords for those two zip files? If you can PM me if you do not want to give it open.

Thanks

sorry guys the password is avic411

completely forgot I put a pass on it.

Updated the firmware today. Weird thing is the release notes does not mention anything about Navigation software update, only about Bluetooth updates.

But I checked I saw navigation software has been updated to minor version 3 from minor version 2, but the blue-tooth software version is same as what I have from Europe Firmware update.

Never the less it is good thing. Finally Pioneer released update for US. I have not seen anything instantly noticeable, but I felt Navigation seems to provide little more details about surrounding streets while navigating, and I felt color scheme(shades) has been updated.

Please let us know your experience after Firmware update.

So, one again, what do the files do? I would like to know to see if they can be used on the Z110BT.

They are just an extract from the WINCEIMG file. It serves no purpose unless you want to attempt to modify the windows CE files for your 1.003 update.

You can attempt to do it but one wrong move and you'll most likely brick your unit. Without testmode it really isn't worth messing around with the flash.

As of right now we need to figure out how to get the ID file to boot testmode. From what I've seen it is looking for a exp090.key.

Everyone,

Can you please post your experiences after the update? And if you see any notable changes?

Thanks

So far I haven't noticed my unit freeze up this morning...Haha I said unit...Seriously though, if I'd not turn the ignition into the acc position within an hour of turning my car off the nav would freeze on the nav screen. So far so good this morning, but this is the first day this has been running with the update. I'll post more once I get back from lunch.

So just got back from lunch and still good! I'll post again on Friday and let everyone know if it freezes again.

Thanks for update. Appreciate if remaining folks also can provide their experience.

Performed the update yesterday morning and have had no problems so far.

I just did an install 2 days ago. Immediately did the firmware update. I have not experienced any of the normal issues so far.

Still no freezing, so I guess it looks like I'm good! WOOT WOOT!!! I love this unit! Great value!

all of the issues I had with the unit have been resolved with this update.

Purchased a new unit just before christmas, applied the firm ware update right after install, so far I have not run into any of the above issues with this update.

I've been using the update since the first day it was released, and I havent had any of the freezing issues at all.

The update is fantastic!

Mine doesn't seem to want to update. Put in the SD card and promts never came up. I've tried reformatting multiple times and even tried it with different SD cards.

I'm from sydney so I have the Australian Version of this headunit (F310BT), anyone else had problems like this?
