Thread: how to upgrade 997?

I would recommend having a copy of the current software version on a separate formatted SD card....
HB recommends the Sandisk Extreme III SD (or SDHC) card...(walmart has them)

Updating can sometimes go awry and the easiest way to remedy is to revert back the software...

To find what version of software the unit is running:
Press the "Power" button
Press the "Menu" button ( while the welcome screen is showing)
Select "System Status" from the 3 choices
Software version should be listed there

Go here to download current version of software... ( only put 1 version of software on a SD card so it wont confuse the unit when you stick the SD card in the unit)...
Login

(So you will need at least 2 SD cards...1 for current version of software, 1 for newest version of software)

You can register the unit at HB here...
Support

After you register the unit at HB...Sign in to your account to see the latest release of software available for the unit...

Follow these instructions (carefully) to put the software on a "dedicated" "formatted" SD card and then into the unit....
How do I download Software to my HB Unit using MMC/SD card?

If you find bugs or problems in the newest software version... Use the same update procedure but with the other SD card that contains the original software version you found when you got the unit...
