How to downgrade firmware?

If you want to degrade from Beta firmware to the lower version firmware, follow the steps as below:

Firstly, please unlock the camera's firmware degrade limit.

Use the Pro PC of 1.3.0 version or above to connect to the current camera.

When the camera is connected, open the “Camera settings” and click the "Unlock firmware degrade" under the camera icon. Once unlocked, the camera can be updated to any version of the firmware in normal updating way.

How to upgrade firmware upgrade with booting?

(1) Please make sure that the battery is not lower than 30% and is connected to power adapter. The camera may be booted by pressing "POWER" key in the power-off state.

(2) Insert the SD card that has the latest firmware into the camera.

Notice: please make sure you have deleted the old firmware bin file, and keep the file name (Insta360_Pro_Update.bin) of the newly downloaded firmware unchanged, or the system might not be able to identify the latest firmware automatically, thus cannot upgrade normally.

(3) Restart the camera after getting above preparation done, the camera will enter upgrading stage, during which it is upgrading the firmware. Once it has completed, it will restart again.

(4) You can click "Info” in the setting to check out the camera version and Pro Serial Number.

As the Beta firmware is still under test, we hope that you can understand there might exist some bugs or problems. Please use them with caution, and not for important purposes.
