2010JourneyMan Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 Sorry if this is a dumb question but... I just got my 2010 Journey SXT and have less than 200 miles on it and I wanted to see if I needed to update MyGig and I am not seeing what all the forums are saying I should see. If it matters I am in Italy. I took delivery through Navy New Car Sales so it came from the US through Germany to me here in Italy. I can only put US time zones into the radio so I am assuming it is a fully US spec vehicle. It is a NON-Nav with rear backup camera. I went to System Setup --> System Info on the radio and have the following info : Application: 06.06.01 Audio CPU: 09110931 Grace Note: 4BB Serial: System: 0101 Is the version 6.06.01?? If I need an update which update do I use? I have http://www.mofv.com/mygig bookmarked Any clarity is much appreciated Bill Please let me know if I need to provide any more info.

fbthree Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 In the bottom corner of the radio, what are the 3 letters? That is the radio sales code, and it is the key to knowing who made that radio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the radio sales code, and it is the key to knowing who made that radio. There is NOTHING in the right corner. I can take a pic and post it but be assured there is nothing there. If it helps the initial order form has: AWX as the SAFE & SOUND GROUP, -inc: 30GB hard disk drive, 6.5" touch screen display, media center 430 CD/DVD/MP3 radio, ParkView rear back-up camera AWX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fbthree Posted May 1, 2010 Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 Based on the version you provided, you have an RBZ radio. The software version that you have is fine - no major changes have been made since then that would affect how the radio works. The RBZ radio is made by a different manufacturer than the other MyGig radios (REN, RER, REU), so you will probably not see the updated software on the web. Are you having a specific problem with the radio that leads you to believe an update is required? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just bought new SXT and the RBZ radio has locks up when I try to load songs onto the hard drive from a DVD full of MP3s. It's even locked up a time or two with the disc not in the radio. I'm hoping that Dodge, or whoever, will release an update or atleast a TSB about this issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinilopes21 Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 "I have http://www.mofv.com/mygig bookmarked" After I saw this post I entered in this website above and downloaded a REZ update ... have you guys done these updates without any problem ? just to be sure before runs the update, I think I have a problem in my HDD and tried to copy some large amount of music ... this is why I intend to update. everything normal with your updates then ? thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GriswoldFamilyTruckster Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 I just bought new SXT and the RBZ radio has locks up when I try to load songs onto the hard drive from a DVD full of MP3s. It's even locked up a time or two with the disc not in the radio. I'm hoping that Dodge, or whoever, will release an update or atleast a TSB about this issue. We also just got one with the RBZ, and yes I notice that newer software isn't available from Dodge (haha) or the mofv.com site. I suppose the DVD is just for data, as I put a retail movie DVD in and it only played audio - FAIL. This is the in-dash one by the shifter, we didn't get the back seat facing one. Didn't really read the features on the multimedia thing it is. I tried different USB media (small flash drive, and a very fast solid state 64 GB drive) and wasn't impressed at the speed, it seemed slower than USB version 1. I suppose I could dig up a CD or DVD and burn, though it has been a few years and that seems antiquated. It also isn't conducive to copying music from the iPod, but that is more Apple's proprietary format of music on that. I just got my wife a mini plug male to male cable, although when I get a chance I will put some music on the HDD. Ultimately I can't expect it to run like a supercomputer, it is just a novelty, clunky and slow. I tried importing around 1,000 songs, and I think it is capped at 400 at a time. I also picked like 20 pictures, just in the JPG format, and didn't shrink them down; so they were about 100 MB in size. It took an hour to copy - quite pathetic. We have the bluetooth pairing, but no NAV. Oh well, it at least does something with the bells and whistles. I have been in the IT field for almost 15 years, so my standards are probably loftier.

warbird24 Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 First, Thank you for your Service! My hat is off to you! Second. Through the Base Exchange Service the Cars sold are full US Spec Vehicles. This means you can ship them back stateside with no problem. The time zone thing might be an issue and one that the Chrysler Service might be able to help you with. There may be a DVD update for the European Time Zones they could add for you. I would just make sure that it could be UN-DONE before you ship the Journey Home. There was a Late year change in the Radios from what I have read. I am still uncertain which radio our Journey will have in it. The MyGig site you have listed is one of the better one's. Also, www.wkjeeps.com has a few updates and information on Radios. Most Radios in the Jeeps are the same as the other Chrysler Products. MSGT, USAF Retired Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmwoodie Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 It is a NON-Nav with rear backup camera. I went to System Setup --> System Info on the radio and have the following info : Application: 06.06.01 Audio CPU: 09110931 Grace Note: 4BB Serial: System: 0101 I have http://www.mofv.com/mygig bookmarked Bill Hi Bill, MOFV site does not appear to be for us RBZ Radio people (mine does say RBZ in the lower right hand corner of the radio). Mine is non-NAV, rear camera and Sirius. I think its because our electronics are made by Mitsubushi, and all the "older" models are MyGIG. My application: 08.03.02 My Audio CPU: 021210 My Grace Notes: 93F My System 0101 There does appear to be quite a disparity between yours and my version numbers. I did see one note on Dodge site for upgrades to the RBZ. It said go to your dealer, so you could try that I recently had mine replaced under warranty, so maybe I got a firmware upgrade with the new unit. (I thought it was funny that I lost all my media and system preferences with new unit, but my bluetooth pairings and phone names were still there. Must not be on same hard drive? or immune to a firmware upgrade anyway.) My R/T option list included Conv Grp II, Rear Seat Video Group I, and Safe and Sound Group. Good luck.

(not just with your radio!) Elmwoodie. Your bluetooth pairings and phone names are stored in the Uconnect module, also known as the Hands Free Module (or HFM). That is a separate box from the radio, which is why the settings were kept when you swapped radios. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, someone who understands! Let me address some of your complaints... - DVD Video discs can only be viewed on the radio screen when the vehicle is in park. There should be a "VIEW VIDEO" button in the lower right corner when the DVD video is loaded and the vehicle is parked. - USB copy speed is not the fastest, especially for pictures (which are painfully slow to download at full resolution). The best (though not easiest) way to copy music files is to keep the USB stick size small (2GB or less) and not overload with a ton of files. The most the RBZ will ever see is 1024 files, so keep those file counts down. It beats burning CDs! - iPod copying is strictly frowned upon by Apple. The radio is only allowed to copy what it sees on the iPod as a normal "mass storage device". - It is not a supercomputer, obviously. Treat it like a computer from about 5 years ago, and I think you'll have a better user experience. Thanks for the comments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmwoodie Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 As of Oct 2010, it appears that there is an upgrade for the RBZ radios. Service bulletin: 08-028-10 link to service bulletin The TSB uses an upgrade CD (part # 68092693AA) to upgrade to version 8.05 (or higher). I cant find the upgrade anywhere online. Time to call my dealer. Elmwoodie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmwoodie Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 Someone haveing the same issue on their dodge minivan http://forum.chryslerminivan.net/showthread.php/21484-2011-T-amp-C-430-RBZ-Radio-Dim-Backup-Camera?p=208429 And now maybe the update has leaked! Looks like it. Will download and try it!. Elmwoodie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmwoodie Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 Downloaded and successfully installed the update. No big changes. Having trouble finding little changes too. But the version number changed. And hopefully more bluetooth applications will work. https://www.dodge.com/hostb/crossbrand/owners/en/pdf/download/Apple_Devices_Compatibility_Test_Report_Rev_B.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
