StationGrey Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I have posted this as a reply in a previous thread, but it's probably a bit lost so thought it worthy of a thread. I've just taken delivery of a brand new Mk1 V 60w, and after a quick play with the default settings, I did the v2 update with no problems. Now however, I can't touch the knobs when on FX setting at all or it all locks up. I can change everything else - scroll through presets, change 'amp' settings on the knobs, adjust volume etc - but when on FX if I try to turn a knob it initially displays the setting value and then that's it. Nothing can be changed, even volume or amp presets - it carries on working so you can continue to play, but you're locked forever in that setting at that volume until you switch off/on at the back. FWIW, although I only had a quick play with the v1 firmware, it definitely didn't do this and it worked fine! Also of note, with my iPhone plugged in I can make adjustments fine through that, and save/edit etc, so I have been able to play with the FX, just can't via the amp directly. I've tried a factory reset from the Home menu as suggested in the other thread, but makes no difference. Have raised a ticket with Line 6 support. There was one other person who mentioned this deep within another thread, but I haven't seen anybody else mention it. Is everyone else working ok with v2 on a v1 amp?

StationGrey Posted August 7, 2019 Author Share Posted August 7, 2019 Good news! I tried reinstalling v1.05 and then installing v2.0.0 again and all is well :) So, nothing to see here, move along please. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmyjimmyv Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Don't know if you guys ever figured this out, but I had the same issue.. I backed down to 1.0.9 or something, don't touch anything else, do a reset on the home button, THEN updated to 2.0 Worked fine for me.. good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaRefractor Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Glad this solved the update for you. I'll have to mess with the FX nobs and see if I'm having this problem and then try the approach if it's an issue. I'd been primarily adjusting from the Spider Remote and USB cable. I suspect we'll see a 2.01 in the future that works to resolve the occasional hang issue post upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even I'm facing the same problem in my line 6 v 30. Today I updated it to v2 and everything was working fine but as soon as I pressed fx and tweaked it got stucked in the same thing and didn't go come back from that setting. Please help us for this problem line 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert_Peters Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Had this problem, had to go back to earlier FW, did a factory reset, installed 2.0 again, factory reset and all was fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amkangas Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 I had this problem with a V120 (not MKII). I did what everyone else here did. Went back down to Firmware 1.05 via my PC and USB cable and the line 6 updater app. Everything worked fine on 1.05. Then I updated again back to 2.0 and now the effects don't freeze. Cool.

DimeDarryl Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I have this exact same problem! Its so irritating. What i have to do is use the spider remote app to change any of the FX settings without locking it up. But yes. I am having this exact issue. I have the regular Line6 SpiderV 240. Can we uninstall the update? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
