(Official) firmware update to 1.1.9 - severe error (bricked rig?)

#firmware

Rolf Trossen All Messages By This Member #6511 Hi, I just tried to upgrade the FW from installed version App ? ? V1.1.7 Aug 25 2023, 15:09:46 BASE ? ?V1.1.6 Mar 07 2023, 09:57:03 to? APP: V1.1.9 Sep 14 2024,12:11:57 BASE: V1.1.8 Sep 15 2024,15:22:37 ? I followed the instruction published by XIEGU and by radioddity and so formatted an SD-card (16GB), inserted it into the X6100 (connected to mains) and switched on.. ? Boot from the card seemed to work (text prompts appeared like expected) and the display then announced a system shutdown like "3sec...2sec...1sec ... 0sec" After this I powered off the rig.? I then removed the SD and restarted the rig. But the display remained dark (the green LED is on) ... since several minutes no change. Any attempt to re-boot with a new writen SD card carrying older or current FW versions are without success. The LED starts to steadily glow green, but the screen remains black, ? I am afraid that the rig is bricked... Can anybody help me please? ? Best regards! Rolf Trossen, DL1NDR
Georgy Dyuldin All Messages By This Member #6513 Try to push the power button for 10 seconds or more. This should power off the radio completely. Then turn it on (without SD card). вт, 10 дек. 2024 г., 22:00 Rolf.trossen via <Rolf.trossen=mail.de@groups.io>: toggle quoted message Show quoted text Hi, I just tried to upgrade the FW from installed version App ? ?

Rolf Trossen All Messages By This Member #6514 开云体育 ?Hi, after several unsuccessful attempts, I -in total distress- just unplugged 12V mains plug during one more attempts to reboot and rebooted the 6100 running on battery. It worked.? 6100 rebooted and now it boots reproducably into the updated firmware… Although I do not know why this happened in the beginning and why it was solved and I cannot recommend this method to anybody, I am surprised and happy that it finally worked. So, we can close this issue … thanks to everyone who read it meanwhile and possibly answered to it…. sorry for my clumsy english.? Best regards and again thanks to all.

Randy K7RAN All Messages By This Member #6519 Maybe someone can answer… What are the advantages for updating the official firmware to 1.19? I typically use the R1CBU alternative software, so would upgrading the official firmware provide any benefits? 73, Randy K7RAN
f1org All Messages By This Member #6522 开云体育 I don't know the R1CBU version, but I can tell you that the official version 1.19 still has many bugs. - The squelch does not work in FM mode! (In addition, there is no CTCSS which is annoying for FM repeaters in 29 Mhz) - The quality of the internal microphone is very average. In the menu, past level 35 out of 50, the microphone no longer works. - The SWR measurement is done at maximum power (5W) despite the power setting at minimum (0.1W) - There are still as many "birdies" as on the other versions! I hope there will be more improvements! 73'S Jean-Marc?
