Hello
Hardware is reported as LM5 M4 (i.MX6)
I am trying to upgrade to lm5m4-20240426.img but after the coundown reaches 209 (from 300) the firmware upgrade process resets and the old firmware is still present.
I cannot find any error logs or error dialog boxes.
I guess my current firmware is too old, but I don't know where I can find the upgrade path.
Any suggestions?

As your device is quite old, you still mighty have the issue with sd card in read only mode.
Create an object, sync data and reboot. See if the object is still there.

First make yourself a backup!
You will need at last 1GB card but not bigger than 32. An industrial or SLC is recommended. In latest range we are using WesternDigiral pSLC cards and they work very well.
After powering down device you can lift the top cover with a use of screwdriver and you will see the card. Slide the holder to take it out. Fallow this instructions to replace the card.

You can try making backup of your card via this tool and restore on your new card. In this case the new card cannot be smaller then the old one.

Yes, this is the one we use, you can find it under sandisc, its the same.
Yes it's microSD.
We have bad experience with Kingston but you can use any brand.

I was able to upgrade the firmware after replacing the SD card with a Sandisk Industrial as described above.
