Hi @athin ,
Welcome you to our community!

Could you please share with me some information as below:

  1. What firmware version is your MP70 Pro running?
  2. Can you describe the step-by-step you did?

Thanks,

Hello,

The MP70 was running the 14 firmware I can not tell it full release number
I attempted to update to the lasted 15 release this basically timed out froze

Once I was able to reboot and get into the recovery mod I have attempted to update the firmware a number of time but all times it errors

Regards,
