Pocketbook 360: No firmware Upgrade possible

dud · 04-05-2010, 07:42 AM

Hi,

I am trying to upgrade the firmware on my pocketbook 360 and it does not work.

Instead it display following message during power-up: 'Das Gerät lauft im Sicherheitsmodus. Um die Einstellungsänderungen zu aktivieren ist ein Neustart notwendig.' Which is the translation of this item '@Safe_mode'. I changed the language to english on the device, but still, I get this message.

I copied the file 'SWUPDATE.BIN' from (swupdate_15mar2010_360_us_ws_v15_1.zip) to a micro sd card, which was formatted in the pb 360 device. Before pressing the On button, I hold the 'Up' and 'ok' button simultaneously. And after pressing the on button I get the above message.

I removed the battery case and pressed the reset button ('Neustart'?!?), it boots all right, but still no change.

Best regards

bummer, I misread the firmware upgrade posting in this group (the sticky one): I thought the 'upper page buttons' means 'button "up"' from the manual (http://www.pocketbookreader.com/uplo...0_english_.pdf). But actually the top most 'pages button' is meant.

Thus pressing the the top most 'pages button' and the 'ok' button during power-on works as expected and the firmware upgrade was successfull.

Best regards
