The good news is that we will get an update this year. The bad news is that it's not available to purchase yet :(

Does anybody know whats new on the disc apart from the maps? Do you think if they are tomtom maps then tomtoms camera base can be used or their POI's ? You boys in USA are lucky your update discs are $120 our ones are £250. About 3 times the cost of yours.

My update has shipped and will arrive tomorrow. I will post the new changes once I get it.

My 2012 CNDV-1100HD arrived today and took about just over 3 hours to install.

 

The kit includes the installation manual and 2 DVD's. In order to install, you still need to generate a "password" from pioneer's website using the Avic's Service Number (serial number) and the Media Number included in the kit. You can only generate the password for 1 Service Number.

 

Here are the updates according to the update installation manual:

 

1. Map database is renewed.

2. POI database is renewed. (approximately 12 million included in database)

3. Gracenote database is renewed.

4. "Driver's View" mode on the map view and "3D" setting in "Close Up View" are not available.

5. XM Satelite Radio in the lineup and icon of the broadcast station.

 

The other operations are essentially the same as those at the time you purchased the hardware.

 

The TOM TOM maps look the same as the old maps, but the backend data is different. I have not used it enough to determine the routing logic is any better.

 

TOM TOM Map Version, Rel. 06/2011 (go figure, still a year old, but 2 years newer than the last update).

Thanks for that. Its a shame the maps are a year out of date. Is there any facility to edit the POI's or add Tom Toms camera database? I have ordered a EU one from the Netherlands as it works out £50 cheaper than getting one here and thats after postage and Bank Charges. Ridiculous considering its the same discs. Rip of Britian.

There's no changes re camera databases etc... The fact that it now states TomTom as supplier of the maps is just because TomTom bought TeleAtlas a while ago, the previous supplier of the maps. TeleAtlas no longer exists as a company, hence all references to TeleAtlas are now changed to TomTom.......

Thanks. So as yet it isn't possible to put a camera database on it as with the Tom Tom own units?

Posted Aug 16, 2012 · 14:26 UTC#14

So becuase of this "service number" there is no way for us to rip this and host it?

Posted Aug 16, 2012 · 15:38 UTC#15

Hello JWQ, Did you have a look into the downloaded files to see what they were composed off? I know you will be aware that the newer Avic Sat Nav systems which use the Tom Tom maps have a free camera download data base. Just wondered if that could be adapted to work on the HD1,HD3?

Hi, I have sent and e-mail to Tom Tom technical department asking them if its possible to put a camera database on the maps? Navgate do it through their program for the FT range? We will see what Tom Tom say. I fear not a lot.

Same as the previous 5 updates. Must be installed directly to the unlocked hard drive.

I hope somebody will be kind enough to upload the drive image like last couple times.

Are you offering a FTP server?

I can, but it's going to be very slow as I have 2Mbit uplink. I can, however, help upload to multiple hosting sites if needed.

I have the files & database, but I never looked at them in detail. You're welcome to have a look though 8)

I find that the database for the Netherlands is still quite useable, despite being a couple of years old as the fixed camera's don't change too much, and the software also displays camera's it receives via RDS

Would it be possible for you to send me a copy of the disc for examination? What size of files are on the disc. Would it load on my HD3 so I could work with it? My hd is unlocked. Thanks.

Thanks jwq. My son is a software engineer. He says he will have a look at it when he gets some time. Loaded fine on to my HD3. Don't suppose anybody out there has the UK database? Thanks again.

Has anybody got camera database files for the F series. Not looking for new ones just ones I can compare files with? Just want to see whats in them to help me with my little project of trying to get an up to date uk camera database on my HD3. Thanks to jwq I now have the black spot menu button.
