Anybody can make an iso image and share the registration code or password the z110bt is not going to comunicate with any headquarter online and let them know the same software has been use by more than a person.

 

You have to receive a unique password from Pioneer to your upgrade to enter in on the unit or you will not be able to install the upgrade to your unit. That password will only work for your unit. Its not going to be as easy as just copying the image from the SD cards.

I can't imagine they would make it easy to do this when its become so well understood that everything finds its way onto the internet.

Introduced Pandora Link No iphone, so this will not work. They need to make it work with Android.

 

There is no control protocol with any other phones via USB like there is with the iPhone. So there is nothing Pioneer can do about this. Just one of the many reasons why no other phones compare to the iPhone.

You should research before posting......

There's also a video. And I guess we don't need that cable anyway, just the bluetooth we already have.

Well I stand corrected. In this case, I would expect to see other phone support in this way eventually. But probably not with this unit or this series.

It's not possible to "copy/download" this update. Pioneer's website generates a unique key based on your Z110's serial number.

So do they make me generate this key when I get the SD cards in the mail? Because it didn't make me do it when I filled out the order.

I am sure it will take a while, I will be waiting anxiously. I am really surprised how much Ford has put into their SYNC system. They are really making it sound like a do it all system.

Yea that was actually pretty impressive. And to be wireless at that.

does anyone know if this will take as long as 3 hours to complete as far as installation? or have the updates gotten faster?

I've never seen an update that took anywhere near three hours.

True, u can't simply just copy the SD cards and enter the same code. Unless someone figures out a key generator or some type of master key code.

somebody at some point, will find a way to get this Update without having everyone buy it, ppl spend all day trying to Hack these type of things, and i thank all of those ppl...and am patiently waiting for this to pop up on isohunt.com or somwhere else

Yes isohunt lol, well firts we need to find out if thats true if the software can recognize the HU serial number and give an exact password for it. I don't think it works like that, we got to try it if anyone here wants to share the software with passwords I will try to create a keyen for it.

This is not the first time Pioneer has issued an upgrade with this type of activation.

Correction there is a Device Number in the unit software we just need to find out how to change that number. This is not the first time we try to crack it either theres is plenty of sucessful hacks.

theres is plenty of sucessful hacks.

On what?

Since there have been updates like this in the past via SD - does anyone know if / how they were cracked in the past? Might be able to take the same or similar approach.

Given the other cracks ive seen in the past around the HDD's im sure there is someone here smart enough to figure this out. We need to get a image hosted to allow others to inspect it. Hopefully someone will be able to host one soon. I'd love to get the new maps and interface.

When you get the upgrade, the instructions will tell you to go here: https://www.pioneernavigationupdate.com ... ionupdate/

This is the same process they used with the 3.0 F Series upgrade that I documented here: viewtopic.php?f=32&t=26656

Well not to worry, I went ahead and purchased my copy already so when it arrives I'll make an ISO and share whatever info you guys need... If you guys wouldn't mind donating a few bucks through paypal that would be appreciated too

Awesome - Thanks! I'll gladly chip in to paypal assuming we can figure out the pw thing.

They were never cracked to my knowledge.

no sign of the EU upgrade yet

These updates should have been split up. I can see 200 for updated maps, but to bundle them with the UI update is absurd. UI should be a free download and then I could upgrade the maps at 200 when I'm ready.

I'm on my way out of town right now, but will hopefully be buying the upgrade in the next few days. My wife is even more excited than I am after watching the demo videos (she's a Pandora nut)!

We'll see how the install/update goes, and like mrt2, will also post whatever info you guys need.

Well most companies just give you the option to drop another 1500 to 2000 for the updated UI of the new unit. Man some people are the most whiny, ungrateful people. You people really don't understand what your getting for 200 dollars.

I will gratefully donate at least 50 dollars if I get it crack which should be a piece of cake. I had crack all kinds of software that are way difficult than this to crack. I just need that iso and maybe a couple of registration code to find the pattern onboard the iso. We need to keep all the value code information under private message just in case pioneer wants to act agains us.
