where i can find part 8 and 9 ?

OK I find one,

I just wanted to say that it is really crappy that you guys that got the full torrent downloaded from me and then you don't want to help seed it. If I see it anymore, I am going to take the torrents down or ban your IPs.

*sigh* that bugs me too. once i get this downloaded, i wouldn't mind uploading to usenet if thats ok?

w531t4.

It wouldn't be... I would if i knew how!

FILES ARE LOADED!

 

Part 9 is only 655Mb so everything is done!

 

 

Step-by-step instructions are coming, but if you search through the stickies in the "Hacks/Mods" section, the information is all there.

Awesome Job!! Thanks for all the time you put into this!

and BigFloppy for the server. its now on torrent and soon to be on usenet (hopefully) so your server shouldn't be as bogged down!

Hey guys,

My ftp downloads are almost done. As soon as I finish, I will gladly post them to usenet with par2 files. I have gotten so much from this site, its the least I can do.

Can you psot the links for parts 8 and 9? For some reason, I can get parts 1-7 to download by clicking on your links, but trying to manually enter parts 8 and 9 aren't working for me. Thanks!!

has anyone imaged this yet?

I imaged it onto an 80 GB Hitachi I had lying around, and it works fine, I just loaded the 30 GB image and left the rest blank just to test it out, when it first booted up.... it says it's updating the system and had 2 parts. Then it rebooted and everything was factory again and it was a z2, THANKS A BUNCH

I went for a drive and the maps are updated, the change boot logo option is there, the menus are updated, it's all good. Only took me about 35 mins to load the image across my network. I am currently raring the image into 50MB parts, and then I will make 20% pars and create a nzb. I have created a group on my news service usenetserver.com alt.binaries.avic.fileshare, It's been up about a week and I already uploaded the Z2 update iso from the sticky into it just to make sure it works. I will upload the image onto USENET and then no one has to seed anything, and anyone can grab it all night long at top speeds. I will also be putting it into alt.binaries.test cause I'm not sure if the group I created will populate onto other servers, so if you can't find alt.binaries.avic.filshare then lookup alt.binaries.test and it will be there as wel and that group should show up on all servers for sure.

Thanks to AFMagnum for starting the effort, and bigfloppy for being the first to mass distribute the image, I'm just gonna help pass it on like I promised in the beginning.

Cheers

if i use a new hard drive, specifically a Seagate, do i have to do the unlock and remove the security stuff like described in the one thread? thanks for all of your guys help.

a new drive would not be locked.

anyone have instructions yet on how to do this? MY Z1 gps location is off by like 2 miles or the maps are way wrong or something.. Startin to piss me off.. And AFMAGNUM is that CNDV-700HD iso the real thing like you buy from pioneer? Its only 30megs???

a new drive would not be locked.

but if it supports locking, the AVIC will lock it after being inserted. So the answer is yes, he will need to remove the security stuff.

Many thanks to magnum, donkey, et al for this image.. Just put it on a 40gig HD I had around -- works just fine... I had one strange issue where the system would seem to 'reboot' itself a bunch when I was driving.. My cell phone was still paired with the bluetooth unit on the avic and that seems to have caused the issue. As soon as I deleted the pairing on my cellphone which was there from my original z1, the issue stopped happening... seems like everything is operational!

great stuff! thanks everyone!

Ok I have all of the torrents set up now...

Here they are.

http://home.earthlink.net/~bdmpastx/Z2Bypassed.part08.rar.torrent

http://home.earthlink.net/~bdmpastx/Z2Bypassed.part09.rar.torrent

I have started the upload to usenet on alt.binaries.avic.fileshare and alt.binaries.test, it will take me 30 hours to complete the upload on my 100kb/s connection, but the files should start to be available immediately.

SO torrent, Usenet, or FTP pick your favorite method. Again thanks for the image.

Can anyone please explain in "simple" terms how to do this, please.

Thanks,

Tim

If you don't know what newsgroups, FTP, or torrents are, then google would be your best friend. You would have to do a lot of reading in order to learn about them. FTP is probably the simplest topic learn since the IP address, username, and password is already provided. Torrents would be your next step up. Newsgroups IMO is probably the most difficult topic to understand. Especially by a newbie.

Starting off with FTP, the easiest thing you can do is open up a web browser and type in "ftp://63.173.68.42" in the address field. A window will pop-up asking for login and password. Here are the information:

Username: leech

Password: account

This would probably be the slowest method since this is using AFMagnum's bandwidth and I'm sure a lot of people will try this method first. Torrents and newsgroups would probably be a faster method of acquiring all the files.

Do a bit of reading. Ducatiboy, in this thread, have provided a link to a good tutorial of newsgroups. Again, google would probably be your best friend in order to learn more about the various downloading techniques. Good luck.

can some one please edit first post and put the DL link there

Ok I have all of the torrents set up now...

Woo hoo... My Z1 is now a Z2.. Awesome!

Thanks to all who've contributed.

Come on now everyone.. Let's keep that Torrent Seeded! ( I only have so much bandwidth! )

Ok everyone, I hope there is plenty of succes out there upgrading your Z1 to a Z2. I promiss I'll consolidate all the information and links in a single thread as well as step-by-step instructions. I'll put a link in this thread when I create the new one.

Please note, I will not cover how to setup torrent or newsgroups. You'll have to do some research on that yourself. I'll put some good links for "how-tos" but it will be up to you to read.

Look for the post late tonight!

Here are P2P links.

Many thanks to magnum, donkey, et al for this image.. Just put it on a 40gig HD I had around -- works just fine... I had one strange issue where the system would seem to 'reboot' itself a bunch when I was driving.. My cell phone was still paired with the bluetooth unit on the avic and that seems to have caused the issue. As soon as I deleted the pairing on my cellphone which was there from my original z1, the issue stopped happening... seems like everything is operational!

 

great stuff! thanks everyone!

I have the same reboot problem with Fujitsu 60GB bought from Frys. But the bootup process is definitely faster, and the drive runs really cool. Will try to delete the paired phone to see if it fixes the problem.

mickey,

yeah my drive is a fujitsu 40gb also... i thought my issue was solved but I went on a long drive today to the niagra area in new york and it started to happen again.. i disabled the locking on the drive before I put it in the system.. i wonder if the new z2 software has issues with drives with security disabled? or perhaps it just doesn't like fujitsu drives for some reason? it's very strange..

it's not a wiring issue or shock -- my z1 has always worked flawlessly and i never started to see this issue until i upgraded my unit with a new HD with the fresh Z2 image on it. i've also verified it can still occur when the car isn't even moving... my unit is 2-wire bypassed and the bypass is working perfectly. The issue does not seem to be temperature related either since I've verified that it happens in various environmental conditions throughout the day (sun, shade, etc.).

one other fellow had the same issue that I saw in another thread.. and i think he said it just eventually went away.. hopefully that will be the case for us as well!

if it doesn't, I might just try a different HD.

Ive used 3 different HD's 2 toshibas and one fujitsu. All 3 reboot here and there. Sometimes even when not moving. The only thing i can probally think off is that the original drive requires 5V DC 1.1A all the drives i have tried are 5V DC and either .7A or .5A I also didnt remove the security on the drives so all 3 are now locked( I have about 10 to play with). I am going to try a Hitachi drive now. Now I wonder can I just put the old Z1 drive back in and will it work being that the new software updated the firmware on the unit.

Thanks to all who helped put this image out BTW.
