Current Firmware for DVR-110D?

I just got a DVR 110-D and installed on my G4 running 10.3.9. Seems to be working fine using Patchburn and Toast 7.01. Another post suggested to get the latest revision of firmware installed for the drive. I tried the Pioneer site and they only support updates in windows formats. My drive is listed as rev. 1.11/MMC. Is this the latest rev? If not, do I have to yank the drive and put it into a windows machine to flash it? I am on a network with a windows machine. I could download the patch on there and hope to see the drive across the network for the update if it's even required.
Thanks,
Bruce

I found that the current version of firmware for the 110D is 1.39. I ended up flashing the unit in a windows machine and reinstalling into the mac. Ran Patchburn and the drive runs perfectly on all apple software as well as Toast.
Done deal!
Thanks for the help.
Bruce

What is the current firmware for iphone 3g?

Dear Genes.... wjosten / Templeton Peck,
My iPhone 3G is on iOS 4.0.(8A293) and with Firmware 05.13.04. Since few days when I shifted to New operator VODAFONE, I am troubling with "NO SERVICE" most of the time, but when I checked my SIM in another Mobile, it is working fine. So please tell me which iOS do i need to switch to and what will be my Firmware. As I own iPhone 3G, moving to iOS 4.2.1 is very slow.
Please do suggest. Itz a lil Urgent.
Looking Ahead to hear from you.

Hi Grischa,
Did you extract the firmware before the upgrade? archive tar /xtract source-url destination-url
Can you post the log of the whole process?
Do you have the same results with a H firmware, for example H1_1_9_33 ?

Firmware for DVR-109?

Where do you find the firmware update for a Pioneer DVR-109. I found it on the pioneer website but it was a download for windows. I have a PowerMac G5 Dual 2.3 (early 2005 model) and It wont recognize Memorex 16x media in Toast 7. It will only allow me to burn @ 12x. The Apple rep at Comp USA said that all media is compatible with PowerMacs these days. I need help. Thanks.

no experience but here's a thread

FIRMWARE UPDATE FOR PANASONIC 110D

I'm currently running a Panasonic 110D with Patchburn software. The firmware version is 1.39. I know that there has been an upgrade. Do I have to remove the drive and pop it into a windows machine or is there a mac version of the flashing software available.
Thanks,
Bruce

From the model and firmware numbers, it's probably a Pioneer, not Panasonic. You can update firmware in OSX for this model using DVRFlash
<http://lasvegas.rpc1.org>
You can get the Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-110D 1.41 firmware from

The Current Firmware version for your Router WRT110 is Ver.1.0.05 (Build 03)... Click on Download this firmware for your Router..
Follow these steps to upgrade the firmware on the device : -
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on a computer hard wired to the router...
In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1...Leave the Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
Click on the 'Administration' tab- Then click on the 'Firmware Upgrade' sub tab- Here click on 'Browse' and browse the .bin firmware file and click on "Upgrade"...
Wait for few seconds until it shows that "Upgrade is successful" After the firmware upgrade, click on "Reboot" and you will be returned back to the same page OR it will say "Page cannot be displayed".
Now reset your router :
Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...

Any way to upgrade firmware for Pioneer DVR-K06 DVD-RW drive?

Finally got around to replacing the factory SuperDrive in my Mac mini the other day. The original drive NEVER worked right out of the box -- would read some CDs but not others, always barfed on burning DL DVDs, etc. My last experience with getting a mini fixed under warranty (mobo on my 1.42 G4 took a dump after a few months) involved two three-hour round trips to the nearest (and I use the term loosely) Apple Store for service. It was cheaper for me to just replace the optical drive in this one than to do that drive again.
Anyway, enough complaining. The replacement drive has firmware v1.01 and I would like to get it up to the latest available firmware to take advantage of any compatibility, stability, etc. fixes since v1.01. Problem is that I can't find any software that supports flashing the K06 drive. Hope someone here has a solution. I don't have a Windows machine with appropriate connectors to hook the drive up to or I'd go that route ... plus I'd much rather do it on a Mac just on principle ... plus I don't want to have to disassemble the mini again.
Any solution?

Hello Sang,
I have Sun Ultra 40 Workstation which comes with Matshita DVD-RAM drive.
Mine has D100 firmware and I find other people who has the same drive on different system have D101, D200, D201 firmware.
So does anyone know how to contact Sun to get the latest firmware for my DVD-RAM drive?
I did contacted Matshita for this matter and they tell me to contact Sun.
I did review the Full Components List for the Ultra 40. The only DVD drives listed (Part No. 370-7970) are Panasonic UJ-485 and Teac DV-W28SLA-093. Both aren't capable of reading or writing DVD-RAM.
In some countries Panasonic uses Matshita as brand name.
I did a search on SunSolve with the keywords DVD firmware.
Sun supplies only firmware updates for two DVD readers: Toshiba DVD 1401 (fixes: unable to boot from Solaris 8 DVD) and Toshiba SD-C2732 (fixes: returns incorrect data).
I was unable to update the firmware of the SD-C2732 (Sun part) with the Sun patch. The drive was attached to an Ultra 10 (with an adapter). I ended attaching the drive to a PC and using a DOS boot floppy with the Toshiba flash program and the Sun firmware.
Regarding you problems with the drive: Have you tried another brand of media. The Ultra 40 is under warranty (GA date was February 14, 2006).
Use the contact information from your other thread.
If you search the net for firmware you can locate sites that offers region-code-free firmware for several drives. Usually they provide a flash program (requires creation of a DOS boot floppy). Using these programs/firmware voids your warranty. Maybe you can not revert the firmware upgrade.
These slimline drives have no jumpers, the installed firmware (of the drive) determines if the drive is master, slave, uses cable-select (CS) or reversed CS.

Help needed to track down Problem in tiger with Pioneer DVR-110D

ok as i stated in another topic i own a Beige G3 AIO that is running OS 9.2.2 and OS X 10.4.8 and i have done allot to this system to get it to run faster and to run properly.
part of this setup has a Pioneer DVR-110D it there and when i bought it i was running OS 9.2.2 only. at first i could not burn anything with it cause it wasn't supported and when i went to put the system to sleep it would freeze when i would wake it up it never did this before i installed the drive so i knew what was causing it.
i turned off HDD sleep and the problem was fixed. but i didn't like the ideal of having the hdd running all the time when idle. me and a friend was talking about optical drive issues and he said he found this driver replacement for the apple cd/dvd driver called intech speed tool's 6.0 for OS 9.2.2 and that i should give it a try cause it fixed a few problems for him.
i downloaded the demo of it and installed it and i turned on hdd sleep and put the system to sleep and woke it back up and the system was running great. so now the wake up freeze problem was cured. but still no burn support. so after a few weeks of posting on here about the problem some one came by and said he knew what the problem was and sent me a modded PioneerCDR authoring support extension. i installed it and rebooted and opened iTunes and iTunes showed Pioneer DVR-110D as the devise to burn to. so i tryed it and behold it burned a audio cd with no problems.
later i bought a western digital SE 120gb hdd and installed it and partitioned it 3 times a 8gb first partition for OS X a second partition 10gb for OS 9.2.2 and the 3rd partition was the rest of the drives size for shared data and storage. the hdd worked great with no issues so it was time to try OS X on this system cause i was waiting to get a large HDD to do so.
i figured that the Pioneer drive would not boot the OS X jaguar cd and is a known problem with non apple cd rom drives. so i took out the Pioneer and reinstalled the apple 24x stock cd rom drive. and the jag install cd booted without a hitch. Jag installed and was running so i updated to 10.2.8 and found out the internal screen kept going out and locking the system up. so i searched this forum for the onboard video blackout and came across the terminal work around to get the system to behave itself with having more than 192mb ram installed. i rebooted and all went fine afterward.
i reinstalled the Pioneer drive and went to testing it all was fine everything mounted on the desktop that i put in the drive. but i lacked the ability to burn with the drive cause still the drive wasn't supported be the system so i searched the forum and came across the program called patchburn. i downloaded it and ran it and patched the driver to support iApps burning with this drive. so i put in a blank cd and went to burn in iTunes it burned flawlessly so i tryed a dvd-r with the finder it to burned flawlessly.
o loved playing a game planeshift and then they stopped supporting 10.2.8 so i went to buy the tiger install cd's. i already knew the Beige G3 was not a supported version of Os X on this system and you had to use xpostfacto 4 to install tiger on this system. so i did what i had to do to install tiger on the system and selected use old NDRV and selected to install tiger. which installed some files to boot tiger and rebooted yet again the Pionner drive refused to boot the install cd's . i got mad and held down the command option power key's for about 10 seconds and let off. the tiger installer booted and got to where it started to copy the files to the hdd and stalled out and the drive spun down never to spin back up or show signs of life so i powered down the system and removed the pioneer drive and put the stock 24x cdrom in and installed tiger.
after tiger was installed i shut down the system and installed the pioneer drive. and powered back on and it was in verbose mode showing what was going on one part showed that the Pioneer drive was detected but had no kernel dependencies and continued to boot. i went to repair the permitions when the onboard video went blank and the system locked up. i rembered that 10.2.8 did the same thing so i tried the 10.2.8 screen blackout fix in 10.4 and rebooted. the onboard video didnt come on but since i had a ATI Radeon 7000 i could work around in tiger to update to 10.4.7 at the time. i first repaired permitions and then ran software update and updated everything and rebooted. the onboard video came back on allong with the ATI Radeon 7000 which being used as boot video device and shown the gray apple logo with the spinning pin wheel at the bottom.
so far tiger was running great so i put a disk in the drive and nothing it didn't mount anything so i ejected it with the button on front of the drive and tryed a dvd movie and got the same nothing as with the cd. so i rebooted with the dvd in the drive al behold tiger mounted the dvd but as soon as i would try to do anything with it the drive would stop and i would have to reboot the system to gain the drive back so i can repair permissions. and never tryed to use the drive again
10.4.8 update came out i updated to it using software update and rebooted. the update went flawless so i thought to myself what if the pioneer drive worked now. so i put a cd in the drive and it mounted the disk. then i ejected it with amazement and put a dvd in and it to mounted. so i tryed to play the dvd and it played the dvd to the end of the movie. i took out the dvd and rebooted. i tryed to put the dvd back in but it didnt mount. which ****** me off as to why it was just working and now its not.
i rebooted and the dvd mounted as soon as the desktop showed up so i tried to play it but this time it only played for about 10-13 minutes before the drive stopped spinning which made dvd player stop responding which made me have to force quit the dvd player and try to restart which gave me a kernel panic. so i forced restarted (got a forum to send to apple to report the KP so i did) and the dvd mounted once again as soon as the desktop showed so i ejected the dvd and put a audio cd in and it mounted and i played the hole cd. so i ejected that and put a blank cd in and treed to burn and it got to 30% and then the drive spun down and made the disk utility stop responding. so i forced quit disk utility and rebooted. once it rebooted nothing popped up so i pressed the eject button on the drive and the cd r came out.
the OS X 10.4.8 update made the drive more stable but still wont burn anything. some times it will still not mount anything, some time it will not play anything, and still fails to copy files over to the hdd. so now im left to believe its a driver issue some where since this drive worked so flawlessly in jaguar and OS 9 but fails to work properly in tiger.
i looked in the extensions in ASP in 10.4.8 and there is a few extensions showing errors. i made a list of them to show

that is the list of extensions that are reporting some sort of errors. at first i was figuring it was a problem with the driver for the Pioneer drive but my friend brought over his digital audio G4 which was also running 10.4.8. and we decided to try the drive in his Mac to see if there was any problems. it mounted everything we threw in it. it played dvd's great and played audio cd's great, it copied files over to the hdd without fail. it even burned a flawless cd. ok now the ideal of the driver for the drive was thrown out the window. so it has to be something else causing the problem. either a driver for a part on the motherboard or what i have no clue.
im just wondering what driver it would be causing a problem not allowing the Pioneer drive to work properly. cause its not the drive being bad cause it worked flawlessly in OS 9.2.2 and jaguar and in tiger in my friends digital audio G4
im just wondering if anyone might know what could be done to fix this problem cause i know it can be fixed but i don't know where to begin or how. so i ask you how could i begin to fix this
thank you all for baring with me and reading all this. i know i wrote allot but i had to explain what was going on before i could ask for help so you could better understand what was going on. i have already updated the firmware to the latest with no change the firmware use to be the old 1.11

yea i have along time ago and also made a update to xlr8's drive database. cause i fixed the problems with the drive in OS 9.2.2 (AKA no burn support with the built in burning app or iTunes, now have full support for burning with the finder burn and iTunes thanks to a edited PioneerCDR authoring support extension that someone edited for me. found out that the Apple CD/DVD driver extension was at fault for the locking up on wake up with hdd sleep enabled that started when i installed the Pioneer drive. fixed with intech CD/DVD speedtools 6.0).
When i did the first report on the drive database on xlr8yourmac i reported what problems i was having in OS 9.2.2 and i think i reported that i had no problems in jaguar, and was trying to obtain a driver or something to try to get it to work. but to no avail at first. after i fixed the problems i did a update report
in jaguar the drive had no problems but no burn support. installed patchburn and the drive worked 100% in jag no problems what so ever. im thinking it has somthing to do with one or all of the extensions with errors but i can be wrong.
i just wonder where ryan has been on the forums in OWC's site. cause i would like to submit my crash log panic log and the extensions with errors so he could help track down the problems to see if it cant be fixed. but ive tried emailing him but no replay's. and his last reply on the OWC forums was back in desember 2005 a few day's over a year
i know it isnt the drive cause it worked flawlessly in tiger 10.4.8 on my friends Digital Audio but i know why it worked fine cause it has the proper files for the DA to work cause its a supported system. i would like to try to help to get xpostfacto to work better on the Beige G3 system
in tiger if it is something to do with xpostfacto

DVR-110D wont recognize blank media

Hi all, I just bought a dual core 2.0 machine and when I try to burn a disc with it, it won't recognize any blank media, either cd-r or dvd-r.
I put the blank in the tray and close it, and the machine seems to be trying to read the disc to figure out what it is, but after approx 60 seconds, the tray opens and i get a message saying to "insert a recordable disc"
The drive WILL read cds and dvds.
Here is the system profile description of the drive and my Mac:

I had the same issues, although mine recognised blank cd-r but not blank dvd-r and previously burned dvds. Called up AppleCare and found out that it may be a faulty drive, however, I didn't want to waste my time bringing the machine to the AppleStore for a replacement, so I just bought another dvd drive and replaced the old one. Sorry if this isn't helpful, but you may want to try other different kind of media before jumping into any conclusion.

Pioneer dvr-110d installed but not working properly

hello,
i'm new to the forum. i just purchased a pioneer dvr-110d for my my powermac g4 466mhz. it plays dvds correctly but the only thing that it doesnt do is load my osx 10.4 disc. i got the drive so i can install software without borrowing an external drive (i needed to reload my 10.4 because of other errors) so everytime i put the 10.4 disc in it reads it and says to restart but when that happens it restarts to a gray and sometimes blue screen. so the only way i get the disc back out is with restarting with the shift key held down and then i can force eject it. you guys are my last hope. it seems to working fine except with the startup disc. which is so strange to me.. and the system profiler recognizes it also

Hi
When you installed the drive, did you set the jumper block on the left rear of the drive to "Master"?
Have you set Energy Saver to sleep NEVER & unchecked HDD sleep?
Have you tried starting up w/ the "C" key?
Have you tried updating the drive firmware? Search Discussions for DVR-110, there are many threads with links to updating on a Mac.
Assuming you've also tried cleaning the install DVD, and updating firmware makes no difference, you should try booting from some other installer CD/DVD, to confirm that the drive is bootable; if it will not boot ANY installers, I would return it.
EDIT: you may want to also try
resetting PRAM & NVRAM, always a good idea when replacing hardware.

Upgrading to DVR-110D. Any Suggestions?

I'm about to order and then install 2 DVR-110D's and would like to know of any tips or issues.
Both machines are G4's, one is a Sawtooth/450 (SP) and the other a 450 (DP).
Will these simply be plug and play? Do I need to update the firware and if so how do I go about it? What's "flashing?", saw this in another post.
Any online instructions, like the one's at PBfixit?
Lastly, I've always used Toast to burn, but don't own Toast 7 that supports dual layer. OWC offers a bundle that includes the DVR-110D, 5 DVD-R's NTI Dragonburn that supports DL. Anybody know about Dragonburn or should I just bite the bullet and upgrade my Toast?
Thanks for any help,
Tony

Download the instruction for installing a DVD drive in you Mac from the Apple site in the do it yourself replacement from the harwdare site. Apple has a video here which I used for the G-4 Quicksilver 2002 version:

They also have a step by step instruction which can be dowloaded here.

I did it and it took longer than it should have--but it was pretty simple. When I turned on the Mac it found the drive and I had to configure the Regional settings. I checked Pogue's Tiger book on Pg 426 and that solved the problem.
Everything works as it should with Tiger 10.4.5 and Toast 7.02. No firmware update needed.
Now I want to put the old Pioneer DVD-RW-104 in the second slot and would appreciate any input from those who have done with the the same type of QuickSliver Mac. My bottom slot has a 3.5 inch mounting hardware for a Zip Drive and I want a 5.25 inch housing for the old DVD R/W.

Tiger and pc version of the Pioneer DVR-110D problems

ok here we go
I have tried the Beige G3 part of this forum with no luck cause i use a Beige G3 AIO
ok i have a Beige G3 AIO with a pc version of the pioneer DVR-110D running tiger 10.4.7 the drive will hardly work in tiger but will work flawlessly in 10.2 - 10.2.8, OS 9.x, windows 98, windows xp
the only way this drive will work in tiger is if i reboot with a disk in the drive and then it will work. but it will some times decide to stop working after 20 minutes or until i take out the disk.
some times it will stay working until i try to play dvd movies or try to burn with it then it will stop working and have to reboot with a disk in the drive in order to get it working again. if i don't reboot with a disk in the drive the drive will not work at all until i reboot with a disk in the drive.
im not sure if tiger is using a wrong driver for the drive or what. i know the drive is not bad cause it works so good under OS 9 and OS X 10.2 - 10.2.8. i can burn i app's under OS 9.2.2 with a modded pioneercdr authoring extension, and i can burn under OS X 10.2 - 10.2.8 with patchburn. but tiger refuses to work with the drive.
other than that tiger is running flawlessly on my Beige G3. the way it seems that its using a improper driver for the drive cause there is a apple branded version of the Pioneer DVR-110D with a modded firmware and a standard PC Pioneer DVR-110D with a pc firmware. if tiger is trying to use the drive as the apple version of the drive it can cause this cause the firmware is totally different from the standard pc version of the drive.
is there any one that can shed some light on this. maybe a driver edit or something maybe firmware to the apple version so i can try to flash this pc version to the apple firmware. or something. this drive should work as is if it works so great under OS 9.x, OS X 10.2 - 10.2.8, windows 98, and windows xp.
another problem i have is not being able to boot any OS X cd by normal means. i can get it to boot the 10.2 install cd by having the cd in the drive and hold the command option and power key's for about 5 seconds and some how the drive is tricked to boot and it does but it always fails to install cause the drive stop's working during the copy process.
the drive will boot the tiget install cd (with help from xpostfacto) without doing the trick to get OS X 10.2 install cd to boot but will still fail during the copy process. i know the fix for this is to get ahold of the apple version firmware for the DVR-110D drive. that also might fix the problem that it has under tiger. but it weird since the drive works great under OS X 10.2 - 10.2.8
sorry for making this a monster post but i would love to et this drive to work like it should under tiger like it does under the other OS's
BTW tiger is running great on the old beast besides the pioneer drive problem. not once has tiger failed to boot, not once has tiger crashed, ive timed this system on its boot time into tiger (34 seconds from start chime to full working tiger)its kinda sad to have tiger working so great but has this problem with the pioneer drive

i didnt say i used patchburn in tiger, only in jaguar did i use patchburn to gain burn support. altho i can try to use patchburn in tiger to see if it would help with the issue. AKA it seems like a driver issue to me
on how it will mount disk's when i reboot with a disk in the drive but will only halfway work. but will not mount anything if i boot without a disk in the drive when i put a disk in . but ASP in the ATA tap will show the drive . i can select disk burning in ASP only when the drive is working in its halfway state to show info. if i try when its in its non working state is will lock ASP up and some times throw tiger into a kernel panic when i try to reboot . after all that if i leave the drive alone tiger is ok

Unable To Repair/Update Firmware for a Creative Nomad Jukebox

Hello all,
I've been trying for the past...3 or 4 hours to get my player to work, but it simply refuses to work =P. I sent the problem into Creative, but haven't gotten a response for a couple days now. So, here's a copy-paste of what I sent in that e-mail. If you can think of anything that might help, please don't hesitate to post! I really need your help on this one!
My player's hard dri've recently died, and I received
a replacement from the original store (a CompUSA).
However, my Firmware for the device has failed. I
tried the firmware upgrade for my Zen, but after
a certain number of tries, I gave up. Here is the
list of steps that I followed.
On Zen: Click "Reload OS", let it run, it says
run the firmware upgrader now.
On Computer: "You cannot install this firmware
update with your player's current drivers using
the SB394 connector. To update your player's
firmware, this application will temporarily
replace the current drivers and restore them after
the installation is complete. Continue
installation?", I click Yes. Then it says to
disconnect, and re-connect. I do it.
It shows my version (.2.0), and I'm upgrading/
repairing it to .2.02. When I click "Upgrade", a
warning message pops up and says:
"Your player cannot start up properly. Please
reboot your player and run this application again.
I've done this at least 0 times, and nothing changes. My player is a Nomad Jukebox Zen, the one with a FireWire connection, and like I said,
I've tried this at least 0 times with the same results. Is there a process to completely remove
the firmware on the device, then reinstall it,
or to roll it back or something? Any other ideas
to fix this problem is needed as well.

Bump.
