alexnasralla Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Hi guys, I tried to update the firmware from 1.01 to 3.01 on my PODxt so I could install all the model packs that I had bought before ($150 worth), and in the process of doing so the POD returned the Invalid Code Error 01 and won't respond anymore. This is what I have tried and my setup. Setup: MacBook Pro 2012 Connected through Digi003 MIDI In/Out to POD - Updated USB drivers to be able to do update via USB but wasn't able to, so I switched to MIDI - Tried updating MIDI drivers in Mac but even after installing and restarting Monkey says that it's not up to date - Tried booting up in safe mode, but no response. I tried 1) turning on while holding Save and Edit, and 2) turning on while holding the first of 4 black buttons below the screen - I tried taking apart the casing and lightly tapping each connector as described by a user in this community, still no luck - I tried savings the 1.02 firware to my mac and updating using the file directly, still no response. Tried it with 2.01 and 3.01, no response. Nothing seems to be working to clear this error - is there anything else left I can try? This seems odd since the POD was working flawlessly before I tried to update the firmware, so I'm sure that it's a software problem. Should I try to buy a USB to MIDI connection cable and see if I can solve this that way? Is there a way to completely initialize the unit without using safe mode?

Triryche Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Yes, you need to first update via MIDI, FW 1.01 does not support USB for flashing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
