Someone please chime in.... I DL'ed and installed the hack as instructed to do before DL'ing the map software. The 2.004 installed successfully, however when DL'ing the file from pirate bay.se the file was 2.82 gb and when completed it was in the "File" format. Should that be correct? It's just one file that cannot be opened with any of my softwares as i tried to get the two directories everyone was talking about. Though i just dragged the file into the root of the SD card to give it a try with no luck. I've noticed none of the files from the original firmware update had the file type of " File" So was something wrong with my DL client? "uTorrent"?

the single file is a compressed RAR file which can be extracted with Winrar or on a Mac Unrarx.

It's not recognizable by winRAR. Its just a plain white page icon on my desktop and the type (.FILE).

Tried DLing twice but same results. Is there any other site i can DL this from?

EDIT: It was corrupted. I DL'ed from another website and it was successful. Thanks for the input though.

Worked great... THANKS!

Hey guys is it normal that SD1 folder is a little bit larger than 3 gb?

I remember reading that we need a 2 gb card for the update.

So I finally updated my X920BT and everything work perfectly when I finally understood the process...

The first stepmis to upgrade the unit to version 2.04:

This is achieve by downloading the official 2.03 update from the Pioneer site and applyingnthe patch to it (replacingbthe 2 files). Put that update with the patch on a SD card and reboot, the system will update to version 2.04

Next is to update the maps:

To do this, take the SD1 dir from the update file and put that on a SD (needs to be 4gb) insert SD like normal and the system will ask a few questions say yes/ok to all and once you are presented with a question for the password type the following on screen PASSWORDPASSWORD and hit ok. Should take about 22min to update and restart...

Now to update the Bluetooth:

Ttake the SD2 directory and put it on a SD (1gb is sufficient), insert that card (nothing will happen) and go into the bluetooth settings on the unit and then press firmware update to start that update it will then update the unit to 3.22

is there some one or some shop thats trust worthy that i can send my x920bt to. to be updated .

Im having trouble with this I just just found this link. I downloaded both I have one file downloaded as AVIC-Z110BT 2.004, but I dont know what to do now.

Best to review the earlier posts. I have not done it yet, but I think the directions are clear.

First, make sure you are only doing this on the x920bt.

Second, get two micro SD cards. I bought an 8 GB and a 4 GB from Office Max for about $14 total.

Then, request a free firmware update from Pioneer. It takes about 10 days to get that from them on a 2 GB micro SD card. Make a new folder on your computer in Documents called "Pioneer" and then another subfolder called "SD Update 2.004". Save everything from the SD card to that folder so you have an original copy.

Next, download the 2.004 update/hack and copy it to your computer in the Pioneer folder. There will be two files there - EU090APL.VER and RenewalIFLib.dll. Copy the EU090APL.VER file to the main folder on the SD card called AVICZ110 and overwrite the original file. Then copy RenewalIFLib.dll to the APL folder inside the AVICZ110 directory and overwrite the original file. Save that SD Card and mark it #1 (for the first card to run in the X920bt). Turn off the unit and put the card in the slot. Reboot the system by starting the unit. The system will update to version 2.004 automatically.

Next, download the CNSD-210FM update from the location listed in the earlier posts. Ignore all the Download links and click on "Get the Torrent". That will start the download of the torrent file. Open your Torrent program and click on that file to download the file. It took me over 6 hours to download, so be patient. This file contains the upgrade to 3.11 Firmware and the 2011 Maps and is a bit over 3 GB. Once downloaded, the file will be a compacted RAR file that requires a program to open. You can get a RAR extraction program on Download.com for free. Extract the file to the Pioneer folder. You will end up with two folders with files inside. One called SD1 and another called SD2. SD1 contains the updated firmware and Navigation maps. Take the contents of SD1 and place that in at least a 4 GB micro SD card. Do not transfer the SD1 folder but just the files inside. Put that SD card in the slot and the system will ask some questions. Answer yes to all of them. When it asks for a password, use "PASSWORDPASSWORD" as the password. Capitalize the letters. The update should take a bit over 20 minutes due to the map upgrade. DO NOT TURN OFF YOUR UNIT. I've also heard that the vehicle must be running as well.

Next, take the files from SD2 and place them on at least a 1 GB SD card. This contains the Bluetooth upgrade to 3.22. Put the SD card in the slot and enter into the settings menu. Go to Bluetooth Settings and press Firmware update to start that update.

I hope all goes well. It sounds straight forward to me, but I'd suggest reading the instructions through a couple of times and following it to a T.

I need some immediate help, please. I have done everything correctly however when the contains from SD1 get to 100% the screen says "incorrect SD card, please insert correct one". I cant do anything with my unit. What am I to do???

Just got it to work! Re downloaded files, re formatted SD cards and now im all updated... Thanks!

I'm confused. Is this all the hack is. http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Shop/Specials/CNSD-210FM I've already used that chip to upgrade mine. Someone want to hack the newly released nav tech chip for the 920. http://www.navigation.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/Navteq-NavteqNorthAmerica-Site/en_US/-/USD/ViewStandardCatalog-Browse?ShowAllProducts=YES&CatalogCategoryID=ED4KCghBPbUAAAE5g_sHXzWY

Did the update on my 920 from 2.03fw tonight. Followed these instructions and it all went without a hitch. Thank you for the person(s) who made this happen. Don't have a card reader so I used a blackberry to load the proper files on the card and then installed them on the HU. So after this is the 920 on par UI and FW wise with the 940?

Hello I have a X920 but i already have the authorized update on my unit is their any way to reload the unit with the hack version?

Thanks

Has anyone completed this on a 930BT? If so, is it the same as the $120 updated you can purchase? I am looking for the Android updates that goes along with the $120 upgrade.

Completed on my X920BT with no issues. Thanks for this post. Now hoping to find upgrade to 4.0 with 2012 maps

Anyone have an idea why I am unable to access the torrent website? have tried over and over with no luck...

This is the old update

I just did this update today and it worked great!

Still having an issue with my phone and bluetooth hands free. It pair's fine and transfer's all the contacts. But when I make or recieve a call I get horrible screeching static. The phone is a Motorola Razr on Android any suggestions?

did you update to the 2012 (x940bt) one? as ma_ttcald noted, this is last years update !!

No I did the 3.0001 update that was in the first post. Link to the x940bt? Is it as straight forward?

Side note: I tried my girlfriend's Sony Ericson which runs on Android and it worked fine without any issues. No squeeling.

it's right under your nose. could have bit you.

DOH! Sorry that was a total newbie thing to do.

I went into Bestbuy today and tried my phone on a x940bt there and it did the same thing, and I connected my girlfriend's phone and it worked without any issues. I believe it is the phone that is the issue and not the deck. Anyone on the forums have a Motorola XT910 that works?

just updated! everything seems to work. Thank you!
