I booted the radio and put the boot firmware update in. That went in without issues. Radio rebooted just fine. Perfect. <br /><br />Then I put in the 2nd part of the firmware update and started with the MPU update (from, I think, 2.45) as it was updating my radio suddenly went to a Windows CE screen. I waited a while and nothing happened. I could browse my SD card and everything just like a Windows PC .... Which was very much not what I was looking for. I rebooted the device with the SD card still in place. Just booted up into Windows CE again. I decided to try the boot firmware update again. Same effect. Just booted right into Windows CE. <br /><br />Guess I'll be calling Pioneer's customer service line this week when I have time.

First of all a warning message saying something about a problem with CE66 file and install process didn´t finish. After that BT update didn´t finish. But I think everything works ok so far.Nachohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06834803709244469132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1829441521004562108.post-47133044527282215852012-05-08T09:20:13.847-07:002012-05-08T09:20:13.847-07:00i tried to update mine with no luck it has frozen ...i tried to update mine with no luck it has frozen up and i still have not heard from pioneer to resolve this problemAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1829441521004562108.post-56550143990311304352012-04-28T15:35:40.181-07:002012-04-28T15:35:40.181-07:00Ok, got it installed pretty easily with just one m...Ok, got it installed pretty easily with just one micro SD card. Just do the first step, and then erase those and put the firmware on to do the 2nd step.<br /><br />Hate the way the time, radio pre-sets, and your audio settings get blown away every time you do this upgrade.<br /><br />CarMediaPlayer now shows up as an app now, which is great instead of having to launch it from the phone.<br /><br />Haven't tested it yet, but if it goes back to the App Main Menu instead of the Home screen when you hit the home button in an App, that will be great as well.<br /><br />Not much else that I noticed at first glance...bake100https://www.blogger.com/profile/03279906395490671128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1829441521004562108.post-66332120990781406992012-04-28T12:29:49.637-07:002012-04-28T12:29:49.637-07:00Can you provide any details on how you did this? ...Can you provide any details on how you did this?

Comparison there really is no difference and since both running off windows CE seems like it'd be simple. But yes pioneer failed with the functionality and I'm sure appradio2 is just as poor. I mean these SW engineers are either not innovative or didn't test their own product out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1829441521004562108.post-87879287737992754552012-04-26T17:07:57.214-07:002012-04-26T17:07:57.214-07:00Have you run the updates?

I would expect that you could load 1 update to the card then the radio, then do the other. why get so fired up? it's consumers like you that give good products bad reviews.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1829441521004562108.post-14199267583390538362012-04-26T14:14:27.723-07:002012-04-26T14:14:27.723-07:00a user (on another forum a few days ago) wrote tha...a user (on another forum a few days ago) wrote that Pioneer would release two updates soon: one in late April, and one at the end of May ...
