Initially started to update, got to 50% stopped and asked to restart or reboot. Choose restart. Now it either tries automatically or I hit restart and won’t go past 0%
A 2.1.3
B 2.13
C 2.0.0

Hi!
I see that your serial number is below 4500, so we almost definitely have a fix for you. You will not believe this but the following trick will almost definitely help: Put the Unleashed in the freezer for 10-20 minutes, then plug it into the camera and try the update again, while it’s still as cold as possible.
We took a long time trying to find the cause of this problem. We found the problem and fixed it, but the fix comes in Firmware A, so if there’s ever a problem during the update of Firmware A, the fix will no longer work either.. The trick with the freezer has a scientific explanation too - now that we know the underlying cause.
Please try a few times - we've had cases where it worked only after the 4th or 5th attempt, see:

I hope it helps!
