I've look and have not found any information on how to perform the upgrade of an X920BT to a X940Bt, as it been done yet ?

 

Please let me know where to find more info about this.

 

Regards,

No plans for an upgrade chip yet according to pioneer.

the "upgrade" will be done via software. X920BT and X940BT are similar in terms of hardware. When the update is released for the X940BT you will be able to install it on your X920BT and have similar features.

If you follow the instructions in the "x920 firmware and map upgrade" or something like that thread, you will have the software from the 940 I believe. I did it to my 920 a few weeks ago and it's identical to a 940 now. And the maps were updated. And the bluetooth was updated. And it was free. Lol

Above link for 940 points directly to website to order 2012 NAVTEQ setup from Pioneer for $120.00 is there any alternatives for this upgrade. I'm finding no threads dl links or anything which is unusual for avic map updates

I'm wondering the same thing. I went on Pioneers website and ordered a free update MicroSD card for my 930Bt but it turned out to be the Firmware update only, not a major map and 940 Feature Upgrade.

I just upgraded x930bt using CNSD-310FM/UC:

Pionara, can you make an x930bt upgrade thread for this?

gte460z - that is for x930bt to x940bt upgrade. Should also work with x920, z110,z120,z130

You can use the z140 file that's available in the forums.

I can confirm this.. I just upgraded my X920BT to the X940BT firmware and already I can see it was worth it.. FINALLY I can see the cities of all the returned results when looking up POIs.. WHY did it take this long for them to do that?? Ugh..

time and energy being more important than money to me at the moment (lol), can I just buy the update from Pioneer to turn my x920 into an x940, and would that include the maps, bluetooth updates, etc?

Yep! You have to manually update the BT by going to the BT settings screen.

do you know which is the correct package to purchase, aka is it an update on the x930 site, or the x940 site (there isn't anything but an old firmware update on the x920 page). When you say "manually", would the instructions be outlined by Pioneer, or is this the place to come for successful instruction?
