The screen froze during the firmware update.
If the screen seems frozen during a firmware update, check the steps below for your wallet.
[DCENT X]
First, please check whether this is normal. During an update the device reboots and transfers data repeatedly, and the screen may stay unchanged for a while.
Check this first
- If the app is showing progress, the update is running normally. Do not close the app or move to another screen - just wait.
- Keep the device and the smartphone close together.
If nothing happens after waiting long enough
- Press and hold the fingerprint sensor button on the right side of the device for at least 10 seconds to run a hardware reset.
- Press the fingerprint sensor button again to boot the device.
- Connect to the mobile app again and retry the firmware update.
Caution
Use a hardware reset only when the progress in the app has stopped and has not changed for a considerable time. Resetting while the update is running normally interrupts it.
If none of the above helps
