It's amazing that you would ask that question when almost every single thread relating to the firmware update mentions exactly what it is for.

 

Z1/Z2 lockup (wont get past initial splash screen) to limited number of units that are in higher heat areas.

many post talk about trouble with installs and that they want to reset their avic.

 

but anyway, my question is still the same.

what does the flash update do?

The update disks give you the current mapping and POI information. Nothing to do with firmware

ok i did another search again...

and still got q's

i don't have xm radio... don't have bluetooth i want to connect , either.

now, what would the firmware update actually change or benefit me in?

i can play vid with the parking brake grounded, it just informs the that it's connected wrong but that's all.

mine is an n1 , and i wonder what it would benefit me with. i don't want to mess with it, if there is nothing going to change, anyway.

Stop talking about firmware. You would be buying new disks, which are software. The update disks give you the current mapping and POI information. THATS IT!!!!!!!

alright, after i called pioneer i found out that the frimware update is for the z1's that have problems with booting up.

there is no glitch with the n1, therfore no firmware update.

thank you all for your help

If you put the '07 DVDs in, your bypass will no longer work.

If you own a D1, it doesn't apply to you. Only N1 owners
