Did the 2.22 update and no problem. Saw yesterday (2/4/11) update to 3.11. Now my 1470 is on continuous main screen with radar looping. Sent ticket to Magellan and they said if I tried to reload the firmware. Where is it? Content manager won’t let me. Asked Magellan to send link for direct download of firmware. Waiting for their response. BTW unit out of warranty. Anyway will keep you all updated as to the outcome of this saga. If anyone has a link to manually update firmware or how to downgrade to previous version, I would appreciate it.

I just did the latest update today, and my GPS also gets stuck on the BOOT-UP screen. Created a ticket on the website, let’s see what they say but reading from others on here it looks like I’ll probably end up having to send it in for repairs. GRRRRRRR

Mine too….I have to send it back to them for a replacement.
They will send you a new one if you call.
