Rollback and troubleshooting
Common Issues During Firmware Changes
- Error 507: This is the most common error encountered during a firmware flash. It indicates that the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) cannot find the operating system files. It is resolved by running the AppLoader again to complete the installation.
- Stuck on "Verifying Security Software": On the 9380, this happened if the firmware update corrupted the security certificates. A Security Wipe (Settings > Security > Security Wipe) usually cleared this blockage.
