cryodream Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Today I tried to upgrade the firmware as per instructions here: https://flirc.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201130296-How-Do-I-Upgrade-My-Firmware- The Gui showed that firmware was 1.0, I used the button "Force FW Upgrade", it showed that the new firmware is 3.? something, iirc, I confirmed and it started upgrading, then it failed and crashed the flirc Gui. Now the flirc Gui crashes straight away, when I try to launch it. I tried to uninstall and reinstall Flirc software, it did not help - same thing happens. Oh, and flirc/remote does not work at all. Please, help, what should I do? Is my flirc completely f***ed? The system, on which this happened: Intel NUC D54250WYKH1 Windows 8.1 Pro x64 This nuc is brand new - a couple of days old, just bought it last week. It only has windows, chrome and XBMC installed on it, and that's it. If you need any more info, let me know. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 that's a really old firmware version and probably a really old bootloader. You're f**ed. Okay, just kidding. The flirc is, but I'll just send you a new one. Shoot me your address on support@flirc.tv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

npkdds Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Unfortunately It appears that I have the same problem as cryodream. I attempted a firmware update as per instructions and the update failed leaving the flirc dongle unresponsive to the gui. Tried to install on another machine but no luck. Original firmware was 2.3 and was ready to update to the 3.x Shows up in device manager as "flirc bootloader" but gui reports "disconnected". Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
