Id like to begin appreciating your efforts troubleshooting this matter prior contacting us. Seems odd that after attempting those steps your device firmware doesn't complete the update. Occasionally a firmware update will start and stop or otherwise fail. I suggest you to make sure your device is charged and follow these steps:

I'm happy to know that after trying this procedure with your Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 pro your difficulties were resolved. Thank you for troubleshooting this matter with me, don't hesitate to ask any additional questions you may have and I'll gladly provide you with further assistance.


I bought a fitbit versa lite late last year and updated it every so often however mid February I restarted I to install another update I tried tp turn it on and it said data not cleared sync and try again so I re,moved it from pairing and tried setting it up again bit it wanted me to update it and once again the update failed.


I have also tried this on my Versa 3 and my device will not restart. I just have the black screen with the blue dots in middle. I have tried on my mobile and tablet and they won't even pair anymore let alone update absolute nightmare and it is just 1year old very angry, upset and frustrated


I am trying to get Samsung magican DC to work on my linux (linux mint 17 xfce) computer. I downloaded samsung magician dc from here. Then I downloaded the firmware update files from this page (under "Samsung SSD Firmware Updates for Windows Users", the 840 pro zip file).


Next I tried to follow the instructions in the Samsung magician dc user manual to install the firmware. First I need to figure out the disk number for the disk I want to update. This can be done with the following command:


From here we can see that my 840 pro has the disk number 0. Also the firmware is out of date because my version is DXM05B0Q, and the latest version is DXM06B0Q. So I went on to install the firmware I downloaded.


So I get an error saying that "The Firmware provided is empty or There is no Firmware in the specified path.", but I wanted it to update my firmware. My question is, "How do I make Samsung magician dc update my firmware?"


One guess I had was that maybe the windows firmware update I downloaded only works with windows, but if you download the .iso instead of the .zip, then the .iso you download for windows is the same as the .iso you download for mac (there is no .zip for mac on their page). This makes me think the firmware files are platform independent.


Another guess was that in the manual it only lists Ubuntu 12.04 as being supported while my operating system (linux mint 17 xfce) is based off of Ubuntu 14.04. I don't think this would really be a problem though.


A third possibility is that it is a problem that my ssd is mounted into my root partition at the time I try to apply the firmware update. The manual doesn't say whether or not this is allowed, but if it isn't, I don't see why it would give the error it does.


Using the instructions here, the solution to this problem (which I had as well) is to create the folder structure FW/DXM06B0Q and move the DXM06B0Q.enc file in there. As explained in the link I mentioned, the structure should look like this:


In any case, this will probably not get you much further, since it does seems the firmware update cannot be performed if your system is booted from the SSD, or at least that's what my best guess is seeing the (new) error message:


My phone is an Android One Plus 7 Pro. I decided to try from my wifes phone and the doorbell surprisingly updated without any issues. She has an iPhone XR. Just though I would share this information as it seems to a common problem that has not been resolved. Hopefully the Eufy team can look at this and focus on the Android app.


Welcome to the community @adrianzbanda and thanks for sharing your experience.

I gave up on checking for the new firmware on my eufycam as it eventually updates when there is no activity. Only case to force update would be when you are waiting for certain feature to work which is planned in the new firmware.


In my case my doorbell was not recording the conversation taking place after the doorbell was rang. Basically defeating the whole purpose of owning a doorbell camera and this is why I was not willing to wait.


Have purchaes a T8200 wired doorbel set, and have the same issue for updating the firmware. It fails. I have a samsung note 10+, and have tried it also with samsung tablet A. So firmware update from 2.301 to 2.333 is failing each time. So do i know have to buy a Iphone to get this resolved ??? Help (also tried restarting the device and firmware update after, the same result).


ERRORMOD as a version index looks rather like something went horribly wrong, causing some kind of corruption to the firmware. At least it still communicates through SATA, which indicates some backup capabilities.


I want to emphasize at this point that drives which failed in operation most likely still contain valuable or private data. Before throwing a defective drive out, you should make sure the actual flash chips are destroyed if you are not sure about its contents! Otherwise, a malicious third party might use special access tools to recover data even in the event of failing firmware. In my opinion, the hardware encryption is also not to be trusted since it stores key information within the drive and can therefore theoretically be bypassed by undocumented commands.


GXM1003Q, which is the very one it is supposed to have according to the label. This means that the drive has accepted the microcode and there were no gross mismatches in versions. Note how the revision number -00005 is still the same, although the firmware should not have matched. However, capacity at this point was still at 1GB but no more I/O errors. I then requested the drive to perform an ATA security-erase cycle to delete all data possibly remaining and re-initialize the entire memory. The password I assumed to be un-set, requiring a NULL value:


Looking good! SMART no longer shows any noteable errors, lifetime counters have apparently mostly been reset. The disk responds at full capacity and full speed, and has just completed a complete self-test and full-memory write cycle without errors.


Man! You just saved an SSD (Samsung SM863) which slept for almost three years at the bottom of a drawer, I left it there after hours and hours of research on the net as well as sleepless nights, I had even viewed most of the links mentioned in your article, and tried a lot of things without success.


Until then:

* Can you run hdparm -I on the drive in question and check the security section of any lock-down mode is active? If so, try to perform a secure erase as shown in the blog article before uploading microcode.

* You are on a native SATA interface, correct? Not a USB converter or a Software-RAID or something like that?

* Check that AHCI mode is enabled and any drive-level security disabled in BIOS to allow for the full capabilities of the command set.


Ok, according to the binary of GD57 as downloaded from Dell, removing 304 bytes is correct.

This very firmware should work for both of your drives independent of the model number postfix. Apparently the error you receive corresponds to the drive not entering the correct state when starting the upload. It could be that the upload/checking mechanism behaves differently for this model.


I found another firmware not sure which one is newer seems to be this one below?

_poweredge-14g.html

search for MZ7LM960HMJP0D3

my drive is actually MZ7LM960HMJP-0005 same story like yours


That matches what I see in the hex editor. The first 64 bytes are no longer binary, but contain blanks and the prior drive firmware revision required for update (irrelevant without the DELL tool). The next 240 bytes are actual strings enumerating the applicable drive part numbers and their codes. In sum, your 304 bytes. It seems that both areas are dynamic in length after all. However, if the drive rejects non-matching updates, that means that the binary blob following immediately as the header of the first firmware block contains some kind of clear identification to the drive. Interesting!


Hi, I've had my 2 head XL for a couple weeks now and have printed at least a dozen different things without issue. I've been using the 2.7 alpha slicer and firmware version 5.1 alpha for about a week now with no issues, just completed a 6 hour print last night that came out great. Today I've run into an issue where the printer stops/freezes mid print, somewhere around 40% and sits there. When I pause and resume the printer post a USB failed to read file error. I've tried reslicing and also saving as bgcode and it still fails. I'm now trying with 2.6.1 slicer to try and figure out what is going on. Has anyone seen this issue on the XL or MK4? Should I attempt to format the USB key?


USB flash drive disconnect can occur. Try reinserting the drive to continue using it. In the case of G-code streaming, the system might not be able to resume printing. Should that happen, please copy the file on the USB drive instead.


I experienced this several times during a 9-hour print and decided to go back to 4.7.2 for the remaining of the prints in that batch. I'm considering updating to the 5.1 alpha again just for the .bgcode, but might wait until alpha 3 or whatever the next update will be called.
