Re: Trouble updating XV-V-70 handheld - can't re-enter loader mode

Yep - purchased through a legit dealer in July 2011. I have re-verified the procedure, and did as you suggest - waiting until the receiver was in RF Loader Mode before entering loader mode on the V70 transmitter. No change - as soon as the handheld says "Loader On", the backlight goes off, it says Line6, and reboots.

I'm pretty sure I've managed to brick the bootloader, though as I mention the mic works fine. Time for a ride home?

Anything is possible, but I am 99.99% sure I chose the V70 handheld as the target. The buttons are not stuck. I can easily perform the sequence to enter the boot loader, it displays "Loader On", but then almost immediately reboots. I had no trouble getting it into loader mode the first time, and I must have tried the procedure a dozen times with slightly different variations of timing.

Trouble updating XV-V-70 handheld - can't re-enter loader mode

I got my first V75 and am now trying to upgrade my older equipment. I started with the XD-V70 handheld, successfully got it into loader mode, followed the directions for placement alongside the V75 receiver got Line6 Monkey to go into RF Loader mode, but something went wrong. I got an error message (which unfortunately I don't recall exactly - something about not finding the handheld possibly). I clicked Update again, and waited about 30 minutes with the progress bar animated. I then gave up, and tried to shut off the handheld. I had to pull a battery.

The mic appears to be fine (though still not updated), but I can't get it back in loader mode. I follow the procedure of turning it on, holding the power, and at OFF, pressing select 8 times. I briefly see "Loader On", then the backlight goes out, then the mic reboots to normal operation.

Have I trashed the bootloader? Any way to rescue this guy so I can get it to the new RF? It's still functional, but I would really like to update it.

Thanks,
