When a forced update occurs, the software writes a new binary file (.bin or .hex) to the flash memory via the USB interface. A "downgrade utility" typically bypasses the standard software check, forcing the device into a bootloader mode. Once in bootloader mode, the utility overwrites the current high-version firmware with an older, archived firmware binary. Standard Procedures for Managing Firmware Versioning
Allows the user to select specific older versions (e.g., v1.14.x or v1.15.x) depending on the required software version.
But lately, that saying has become a little too real for owners of the MicroPro 2 (and the broader MicroPod 2 ecosystem). The latest over-the-air (OTA) updates have been aggressive. Features we relied on are being paywalled, third-party filament profiles are being wiped, and in some cases, the infamous "Error 405: Non-Genuine Resin" has bricked perfectly functional third-party tanks.
