Hi folks,
Yesterday I followed the directions to upgrade my LK-7900 from the AC25 firmware it shipped with to AC27, the latest version on the Lukas website.
The update took about 6 minutes and the reboot was followed with "Err3" on the screen. It then voiced the usual "recording mode started" (I forget the phrasing) and then "Recording failure... three". Rebooting it always had the same result. It did create the DrvInfo folder on the card that was introduced with that version, so it did /try/ to run properly.
I decided to try upgrading it a second time to see if it simply didn't install correctly, so I tried the update again and after 12 hours in 'UPdA' / '....' alternating mode, I called a time of death and now the camera won't boot at all and is, for all intents and purposes, a very expensive paperweight pinned to the top of my windshield.
Anyone have any experience with this or ideas on fixing it? Is there any hope for this device?
I've had it less than two months (purchased from green-sum on ebay in early August). I have emailed Lukas and am waiting for a response.
