  1. Personally, I find the switching between patches within a song pretty quick and seamless, as long as the patches aren't crazy complex. I certainly don't hear any delay or glitching when I'm playing rock with the band making all of their noise. I'd recommend the OP try it and see.
  2. Well, I think I'm finally at v2.62 for good. Long story. I thank everyone who posted to this other post by Indianrock2020: http://line6.com/support/topic/13051-hd500x-firmware-updated-but-flash-wont-update-to-261/?do=findComment&comment=94023 Very helpful. I think Norton Internet Security might have been one culprit - once I shut that down I was able to update my POD HD bean from a downloaded file. when I hadn't been able to before. Yay! But when I went to do the HD500x and it still failed! I switched to another computer with Windows XP, updated from a downloaded file and...still failed. Tried again, looked like it worked, but ended up in the endless loop again. Did a safe mode update (down arrow while powering up) and that failed the first time when I told it to save my patches. So I did it again in safe mode, but this time told it to trash my patches, and it seems to have worked. Maybe I had a corrupted patch that affected the flash? Who knows. I did make sure to follow up with a global reset (left arrow while powering up) and pedal calibration as appears necessary from my reading. Geez, not sure why I have had so much trouble. Thanks to everyone who replied to me and Indianrock2020. First time I've ever had an issue with my POD gear.
  3. OK, the good news is that after repeated safe mode rebooting (holding down right arrow key while powering up), I finally was able to reflash the memory back to v1.30. It seems to me the problem must be with USB transfer in general between Line 6 Monkey and the POD. Could it be the v1.04 USB firmware upgrade, or the new v1.70 Line 6 Monkey? I need to have some idea, or I won't be trying the flash upgrade again and that would mean no new model packs or global EQ for me. Any thoughts from Line 6 people would be appreciated.
  4. HELP! I searched around here and there are a few reports of this type of behavior, but I couldn't find a real answer. It started when I tried to upgrade to the 1.04 USB firmware and 2.62 flash memory. The firmware upgrade went fine. The flash upgrade failed to complete many times. I thought I was safe reinstalling v1.3, but then the POD has since been turning on, then restarting repeatedly with the Line 6 logo coming back on. I've tried powering up in safe mode - no help. Crap. Please help.
  5. I too just tried to update the flash to 2.62 and failed miserably. I got caught in the dreaded "flash update failed " loop. Didn't matter which computer, USB cable I used. I had just finishing upgrading Line 6 Monkey to 7.0 and the firmware to 1.04. Very scary, thought I'd bricked the thing. After trying 10-15 times I was able to roll back to Flash v1.30. What's going on???
