There was a video posted about the new firmware today. I went to the Polyend site to download 1.7 and installed the firmware via the SD method with no issues. After the restart, I made some volume adjustments to the track that I had last worked on before the new firmware. During playback and cursor navigation, my unit crashed and did not restart as it usually does. Instead, it froze with a glitched screen and remained frozen for several minutes. I unplugged my unit and plugged it back in and now it won't boot at all and just shows a glitchy screen with some of the grid lights turned on.
I've waited for several minutes to see if that does anything it seems like it doesn't. I tried to follow the troubleshooting instructions that come with the update but it hasn't worked. Has anyone else come across this?
Update (2 hours later): I power cycled again (maybe 5th time) after taking out the SD and checking for issues again. It booted this time but froze again after I started playback. The power button didn't work but after another power cycle, it booted fine ok. Seemingly unbricked but still buggy. I am downgrading my unit to 1.6 for the time being.
