BJG Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I recently updated the firmware of my HTC Vive Pro. Two of the three updates didn't have any problems, but the last one, the audio bridge update keeps failing. It doesn't keep me from using the Vive (I've got audio and video) but it would be nice to keep the firmware up to date. The C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\logs\firmware_update.txt file has the following text: Fri Nov 02 2018 00:02:59.368 - Start Firmware Update (Device Index:0, Recovery:0, ForceAll:0, ForceFix:0).Fri Nov 02 2018 00:02:59.383 - 1 Updates scheduled for Device Class: 1Fri Nov 02 2018 00:02:59.383 - 1: Audio Bridge Update: Existing:0, Required:288Fri Nov 02 2018 00:02:59.383 - FirmwareWizard entering state Headset Start (4)Fri Nov 02 2018 00:02:59.383 - FirmwareWizard overwriting state to Shutdown VR Apps (1)Fri Nov 02 2018 00:03:00.518 - Delaying for 5000 milliseconds...Fri Nov 02 2018 00:03:05.518 - Delay doneFri Nov 02 2018 00:03:05.569 - FirmwareWizard entering state Headset Start (4)Fri Nov 02 2018 00:03:05.623 - 1: Probe for headset with serial LHR-EF3F9319.

HackPerception Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 , perhaps try another USB port while I ask around on this one. It's pretty uncommon for firmware updates to fail like this and it's almost always tied to the specific computer that's pushing the firmware update. In one case, one use had to clean-install Windows to get past whatever was stopping the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJG Posted November 2, 2018 Author Share Posted November 2, 2018 Thanks for your reply. I tried different USB ports, both USB 2.0 and USB 3.0. But it didn't make any difference. To attempt the firmware update on a different system, does that system only need to have a USB port, or does the firmware update require the displayport?

Synthesis Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 USB will probably be fine.Give it a try if you can.Thanks, -John C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJG Posted November 9, 2018 Author Share Posted November 9, 2018 I tried, but it didn't work. Unfortunately it requires a displayport in addition to the USB to update the firmware. I only have one device with a displayport and that's the one that's refusing to update the firmware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synthesis Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 There could be some kind of issue with the driver wizard on the OS maybe. You are running the current version of Windows 10, correct?Thanks, -John C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJG Posted November 9, 2018 Author Share Posted November 9, 2018 I just did a fresh install of windows 10 on my second PC (without a displayport), on which I then installed Steam. When I open SteamVR though it says "Not Ready" and the "update firmware" menu item is greyed out. Is there perhaps a way to manually start the firmware update part of SteamVR (such as what you get if you update the lighthouses)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
