Amplifi unable to update - 4 lights flashing.

[Bebop92]

Good morning,

So I've had this recurring issue with my Amplifi 75 - In the past few months it's been cutting off while connected to a device via Bluetooth, and then all four lights (by the Tone & Tap buttons) start flashing repeatedly and the amp doesn't work anymore. Although lately, it's not working at all, it just starts flashing all four lights straight away, rendering the amp unfunctional.

I did some research and through these forums I found out that my amp was way overdue for and update. I managed to download the latest Line 6 updater through the Line 6 website - I installed it and managed to put the amp in update mode while connected to my Macbook, and ran the available update (Ver: 2.60.0) that the app was giving me. Every time the update is complete, tha amp restarts as indicated by the app, but turns back on with the x4 flashing lights, meaning the amp still hasn't updated, unless there's some other issue with it.

I'm not sure what to do at this stage, and the amp is completely useless due to this issue. Did anyone ever experience this issue with their Amplifi? If so did you ever manage to fix this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm having a similar experience right now, 07/07/2024. 

I was playing normally for a couple of hours and then went to grab something to eat. I turned it off, and when I returned, I turned it back on. My Iphone connected via bluetooth and then wifi. The app then flashed a message stating "Update required". It would not let me bypass it and I finally clicked the update button. 

 

The app has been in "Updating Mode for about 40 minutes now with no indication of progress. It also give the message "IMPORTANT" DO NOT UNPLUG THE AMPLIFI AMP OR SHUT DOWN YOUR MOBILE DEVICE WHILE THE UPDATE IN IN PROGRESS" 

 

Fortunately, I'm able to let it sit and spin all night until I have to go to work tomorrow.

 

I sure as hell hope it hasn't turned into an even bigger disappointment than it's already been.

 

I'll update this when it finally finishes, or when I turn it off and leave for work in the morning.
