chopshop777 Posted November 19, 2017 Author Share Posted November 19, 2017 usually when you run the Line 6 Monkey app, it can update everything that needs to be updated/installed without the need to download other apps/files separately.. generally all that works very well until the internet connection is stable and the L6 server is up and running, ie most of the time.. but flashing the firmware into the POD is a very delicate operation that needs no troubles of any sort until all the procedure has completely ended succesfully, otherwise you can brick the device.. downloading separately the phf firmware file (as you did) is IMO a very good habit, because you can install the firmware by still using the Monkey app but choosing the available option "update from file" (ie the already fully downloaded phf file), thus avoiding any potential risk related to the good functioning of the internet line Thank you so much for the thorough explanation. cheers.
