Well I tried to update the JBL to the new 0.16e and can't.
From
previous issues with the move to 0.16 and the current error messages I am getting, it appears the flash memory is going bad. All I get are hardware errors and the system menu flash test errors out every time.
I guess I will be sending it back for repair/replace. It still seems to work, but I am afraid of the problem getting worse or missing a future update that I couldn't stand to be without.
Oh, well...
