Hi everybody,

i am a new possessor if an avic HD3-II unit.

I downloaded from pioneer site the "AVIC Gracenote database Update" and the "AVIC-HD3-II HDD application update", followed instructions and burned them into (two different) CDs.

Once i insert cd inside cdrom, though, the unit says something like "cd inside device" but update process doesn't start.

Can anyone give me some hints?

Thanks!

 

-update:

i tried completely reset the device, then insert firmware update cd, but still it says "cd inserted" without update to begin.

does your update went smooth? is there any particular way to burn the cd?

i used mode1 with nero: avic unit reads all other cds (e.g. the one with background pictures), but not this one...

i "solved" the problem, that was a very stupid thing...

though on the website there was written to burn the update cd as an image, this way didn't work, at least for me.

all i had to do was to open the .iso image as an archive and copy the content inside a data-cd mode1 project with nero.

burned it ad update started smooth.
