Upgrading a X920/X930 to X940 Instructions (Page 7)

Posted Dec 05, 2012 · 04:49 UTC#151

When you updated, did you also update the bluetooth to 3.24? I forgot to do that and could never get pandora to sync with my phone. I updated the bluetooth and all is well now.

Sorry I missed that you had to change the App connection type from Wired to Bluetooth in settings, but still - neither app connection will stay connected or ever show the display on the head unit. You have to mess around with the settings just to get the apps' audio to finally go through the car, and when it finally does, the disconnected bluetooth message continually stays on the screen no matter what and eventually the audio drops back to just through the phone too. Completely broken here and useless. This goes for Pandora and Aha.

OP do you know why this isnt working properly at all?? I see above that two others have the same issue and I'm sure everyone else with Android as well....

Got my update disk & I now have this, $30 wasn't bad & I can use it as many times as I'd like :-)

Since I didn't have the time or effort to try and get all the right files, I ended up getting this http://www.ebay.com/itm/2012-MAPS-UPGRADE-PIONEER-AVIC-Z120BT-AVIC-X920BT-TO-AVIC-Z140BH-AVIC-X940BT-/130801952466?pt=US_Video_In_Dash_Units_w_GPS&hash=item1e746766d2. Has anyone install this and does it work? I'm kinda hesitant to try it until I find out for sure.

Ok I too have been doing a bit of reading on this subject. I have a Pioneer Avic-x930bt and want to gt my android working with pandora... RIAA has def limited the torrentability of files... so Pandora is going to have to be the answer for now...

I want to upgrade the X930 to X940 firmware and am getting more confident in doing this as I read through the posts...

Couple of questions..

I saw a member post a bunch of pictures on the update as he did it, but his first post consisted of downloading a "TORRENT" of the x940 file.... any idea where I can find this?

Posted Dec 17, 2012 · 17:32 UTC#159

NM. I got the file... No w all I need is a formatted SD Card?? The files I got on my dl were: 2012 Upgrade.rar, Cardinfo.cif, readme.txt, and a "RENEWALFLib-auto- FOLDER"

Posted Dec 17, 2012 · 17:32 UTC#160

Inside the RENEWAL FOlder I got another readme.txt, RenewalLFLib.dll, Scriptexec.ini and a TESTMODE.KEY file...

DO I have all that I need?

Pionara,

I have the x920bt with the 3000 update, I wass trying to copy my file with Condi's Hackmode 2.21 and now I'm froze and it says no applicable program with a code 7 in the bottom right hand screen. Unfortunatly I did not back up my user files because when in test mode it wouldn't allow me to paste onto my sd card. Any help with trying to get it unstuck.

Thanks,JK

Pionara,

Got it all fixed thanks to some links on this site. I was also able to upgrade to the 4.000 and the 3.24 bluetooth working great.

The link I posted on page 4 should still work. I can still see it in my google drive. Maybe someone can change the link in the first post to my link?

Thanks for putting this write up together. I am downloading now and I hope to give this a shot this weekend.

Posted Mar 01, 2013 · 16:38 UTC#174

Anyone else have a mirror to this download? For some reason google docs doesn't want to let me download it. It starts and at some point it fails. I have been trying to download since yesterday.
