wilfredo Posted March 21, 2007 Share #1 Â Posted March 21, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) I usually have problems with stuff like this. I followed the instructions and downloaded the latest firmware update to my SD card but when I put it in the camera it asks: Â "Do you want to update the Firmware to version 0.00?" Obviously it is not reading that the new firmware is on the card. Any suggestions? Â These are the frustrations I don't welcome when dealing with all this technology. Life in the darkroom was simple.

heninger Posted March 21, 2007 Share #2 Â Posted March 21, 2007 Did you say "Yes" and let it update? Â Sounds like a simple string issue - I bet it will install just fine. It is reading the firmware update or it wouldn't ask you anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilfredo Posted March 21, 2007 Author Share #3  Posted March 21, 2007 If I say yes, then I get this message:   Attention  Error Update Failed  Thanks, WIlfredo+ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsteve Posted March 21, 2007 Share #4 Â Posted March 21, 2007 Download the firmware again from the Leica site and try again. Â The battery also needs to be fully charged or it will not update. Â Also try formatting the card in the M8 first and then copying the firmware to the card using a card reader. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
george + Posted March 21, 2007 Share #5 Â Posted March 21, 2007 Wilfredo, Â doing it again sounds like good advice. Just for information the Name should read as m8-1_092.upd and the size (on my pc) on the last download is 4,564kb. The type is shown as UPD. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilfredo Posted March 21, 2007 Author Share #6 Â Posted March 21, 2007 Looks like I had an issue with unzipping the file. After I got rid of the unzip icon, I was able to install the new firmware. Bill gave me some tips to follow as well on another thread, and this did the job. RELIEF :-) !!! Â Thanks, Wilfredo+ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilfredo Posted March 21, 2007 Author Share #8 Â Posted March 21, 2007 Where do I get these profiles? Is there a sticky on this forum? Â Thanks, Wilfredo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wparsonsgisnet Posted March 21, 2007 Share #9 Â Posted March 21, 2007 Wilfredo, they are referenced in the second sticky, new M8 profiles etc. In that thread there are many examples of the use of his profiles. Â You can also see what Guy does with them in the WATE thread. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
