Hey all,

I've got a z110bt and I've been able to update in the past without any issues. For some reason, I cannot get this 2017 update to work. I can run the shortfuse script but can't get the maps to install. 

I get the "Wrong SD card. Install correct SD card" error before even getting the chance to put in a password. I've tried several things:

- Full format(not quick format) 2 different 8GB cards (used in previous updates) for FAT 32 with default config and 32k. I tried 16k and it wouldn't let it finish. 

- I've tried both the cardinfo.cif from the original zip as well as the specified z110 file that was also linked to this thread.

Can anyone lend some insight into this issue?

Thank you in advance!

I can also enter TESTMODE and was able to copy over old files from USER. I'm just not able to update to new maps no matter what I've tried. 

Hello, I have Pioneer_T1000-25818.zip but can't find the proper password. And it isn't "PASSWORDPASSWORD" . Could I please have the right one? Thank you.

I do have ShortFuseScript.zip and would be good to go.

Found what I was looking for, thank you. I was missing the other password. Updating as I type with 18 minutes to go.

Thank you RonS

RonS, I used the "Easy" method, everything went smooth. But now Ipod wont work. The menu changed, I switch the CARDINFO with Z110Z120X920CARDINFO I have the 120BT. What did I do wrong? I'm going outside right now. It worked fine, cable is good. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanx

What do you mean? how is your iPod connected? Did you try AV System Settings/App Connection?

I was in a hurry. Ipod nano connected with the usb/av cable. In the first pic only the settings and eq buttons work.

I never used App Mode - didn't even know it worked with a nano. I can only suggest doing a hard reset by disconnecting the car battery for a couple minutes. This often cures odd behavior after a firmware update.

I never used app mode either. The selection is either wired or Bluetooth no off. I am going to disconnect the battery now since I can't find the radio fuse on the Hummer.

Just pulled the radio fuse, it was powerless, reinstalled fuse and no change. The ipod function goes into app mode.

I'm not 100% sure but if I remember right App mode was always greyed out before I did the update.

Would someone mind pointing me to the update to 4.6 or 5.1 so I can get lightning support? I have z120bt if that is pertinent.

Thought I'd post the Installation/operation manuals and info on the two 2017 updates (v7.0 firmware). I recommend that everyone review them before installing. Also note the specific instructions for upgrading BT from older( < 3.10) versions to v3.32. And as before, it doesn't seem possible to add iPhone Lightning connector support(patches 4.6 or 5.1) after the fact. It must be installed before installing firmware 6.0 and higher. IDK if there is a workaround.

 

Only Compatible With: 

• AVIC-Z110BT, AVIC-Z120BT, AVIC-X920BT         CRD5009A.pdf
• AVIC-Z130BT, AVIC-X930BT, AVIC-X9310BT, AVIC-Z140BH, AVIC-X940BT          CRD5006A.pdf

As with other updates, either product can be made to install on any of the above units when used with the proper CARDINFO file.  See post #26 for the update files and see Shortfuse Hack for how to hack you unit prior to installing those files.

The manuals wont open up,says page not found.

The maps wont do anything when I put the card in my z110bt

Did you replace the Cardinfo.cif file on the SD? The one in the ZIP is for Z130 or Z140

Looks like they removed them from Navigation.com web-site. Their link does the same thing. Here's the files:

I've been trying I cant seem to figure out how to do it I guess.. I downloaded winrar (I seen someone suggest using it). But I cant get the one for 130 /140 to delete/move. Apparently I'm not the best with computers. Smdh

Hello RonS,

I have been reading your posts and I was wondering if you can help me out. I have a pioneer avic-f930bt currently on firmware version 3.0 and possibly 2011/2012 Australia maps. I am hoping to update it to the latest firmware and maps. Would you by chance have Australia maps available that I could install with firmware v7.0 on my unit? It would be great if you could help me or point me in the right direction. Just FYI... This is my first pioneer unit and I am a total novice in this.

Look forward to hearing from you on my request soon.

Cheers!

Nope. No idea about Aus maps or where to get them. You might have to find your local Pioneer web site and buy them. Maybe someone else has a better idea.

Thanks for the reply mate. I already contacted the local Pioneer outfit and they informed me that the last map update for the F930BT was in 2015. Nothing available after that. Looks like my hunt goes on.

In the meanwhile, perhaps you can help me with another thing. How can I update my F930BT to firmware V7.0 without updating the maps? If I have the latest firmware, maybe I can then look at hacking some maps and installing that on my unit. 

Cheers!!!

I have no idea. I don't think it would even work (new firmware with old maps). They are built together.  Also I don't think there would be any noticeable benefit. Keep in mind that 2015 maps aren't exactly obsolete.

Maybe someone with F series hardware has been able to install a 3rd party app (such as igo). I don't get involved with that.

Just wanted to say a big "Thank You!" to RonS and nezfotnemom - Upgrade of my x940bt went flawlessly.  You guys Rock!  Zen, just sent you $ via Paypal.  Cheers!

Thanks RonS... let's see how my update to the 2015 version goes and then take things ahead from there. Cheers!!

Well Ron I finally got around to disconnecting the battery today like you said to do months ago. . . guess what. . . .ipod function is back and works great again. The only reason I had time to do that was to replace my starter. Ha, Thanx for the excellent advice.

Yes. you can undo it if you kept the SD that you used intact. But it is not necessary and would have no effect. You can not redo the update.  What troubleshooting are you referring to?

@RonS - ever done one of these with a bad SD reader? Like through the usb port? I have an x920 that I am trying to update the maps on for a friend.. Wont read any SD cards.. I have tried all dif brands.. Boots from USB find but I do not know how to force this update through usb? Any ideas?

Sorry, never tried it. If it boots from USB (do you mean into testmode?) seems like you could try copying the upgrade files into the root of and empty memory stick. 

There's also the possibility of using Force Program Write in Testmode. I think you can specify the source device as USB.
