Kenwood DNX-9140 w/Garmin GPS

 

If anyone has this head unit, are you experiencing a problem with the Garmin software where the following message often occurs:

"GPS Firmware Updating"

and

"GPS Firmware Complete"

These messages appear randomly and often.

No problems here

I've never had that issue, can you tell us more about your setup?

I'm not sure if anyone is

I'm not sure if anyone is still having this issue or not, but if you are, Kenwood/Garmin released a software update about a month or so ago that targets this problem. You can get the update here:

I just got my DNX9140 last week, but after I got it, I saw that there were 2 software updates available for it (1 firmware update and a software update for the GPS). The firmware that was on my unit when I got it was 1.6.0, the update was for 1.8.0. The GPS update is version 3.20 (can't remember what it was before the update). So far, I haven't had any of the issues it was supposed to fix.

The only issue I really have right now (besides it take forever to boot up in general and just being slow) is working with my iPhone 3GS (it works for the most part, sometimes I get a "reading..." message that just stays there and it won't read my songs). Anyway, I hope this helps smile
