Did the upgrade worked fine right after i got it done. Get out on the water and now all it does is lock up right away. None of the buttons work, have to pull wires off to get it to shut down. Anyone else have this issue?
Mine is a LX-6, tried to do the update and it didn’t seem to work for me. I was unable to get it to load from my desk top to my 6. Then it locked up. It stopped chirping and would not respond to the buttons so I pulled the wire. Tried again, same result. Right now I am disappointed. I have an Ice Troller that won’t show my lure, and a LX-6 that is not quite right. Good thing I still have a basic flasher for when I fish deeper than 3 FOW.
Nope mine is working great! 
Just managed to get the 3.17 update to load on my 6. I’ll use it Tuesday and report back. No lock up this time, it kept chirping, made the long beep and loaded just fine. No idea what I did different.

Guys make sure your using the right file for the LX7 when making the update. There are 2 files for LX7 users when updating from either v2.9 or v3.01. If you updated with the wrong file could lead to bricking your unit or having issues during use. You could retry the update with the right file. Always delete the file on your pc first and redownload to ensure file isnt bad or wrong.
Same here, I just did the download on my 7 and at fist it became a brick. It was probably due to my transfers of file and device. The automatic wasn’t so automatic since my son the computer geek has this thingwhere everything goes directly into some file and it’s a hunting expedition to find it and transfer onto the desktop. I trashed everything and redownloaded. Bingo, it seems to work. Tomorrow it’s out to the lake to see how she performs on real water.
Ya know, that’s probably what I did right tis time. I found three LX-6 down load files and deleted them all and started over and that is when it worked.
