## How to update my RaspiBlitz (AFTER version 0.98)?
To prepare the RaspiBlitz update:
For update you dont need to close any channels, remove funding or download the blockchain again.
Simply [Ddwnload the new RaspiBlitz SD card image](https://github.com/rootzoll/raspiblitz#installing-the-software) to your laptop and have an sd card writer ready. Then login into your RaspiBlitz with SSH and:
- main menu > OFF
- main menu > OFF
- remove power
- remove power
- remove SD card
- remove SD card
Now download the new RaspiBlitz SD card image and write it to your SD card .. yes you simply overwrite the old one, it's OK, all your personal data is on the HDD (if you haven't done any manual changes to the system). See details about latest SD card image here: https://github.com/rootzoll/raspiblitz#scenario-2-start-at-home
Write the new image it to your SD card .. yes you simply overwrite the old one, it's OK, all your personal data is on the HDD. If you want to be extra safe you can make a image backup of your old sd card first - but that is optional. If you made manual changes to your RaspiBlitz with scripts on the sd card you might wanna check on this FAQ question first: [Why do I need to re-burn my SD card for an update?](FAQ.md#why-do-i-need-to-re-burn-my-sd-card-for-an-update).
- insert new sd card image
- power on the RaspiBlitz again
You should see that it switched into recover/backup mode. Its now provisioning the fresh OS on the sd card your old settings and data. This process can take some while especially if you had RTL Web UI activated. Follow the instructions on the display ... if it takes longer then an hour .. [get support](https://github.com/rootzoll/raspiblitz#support).
If done successfully, simply put the SD card into the RaspiBlitz and power on again. Then follow the instructions on the display ... and dont worry, you dont need to re-download the blockchain again.
When update/recover process is ready you will see a `FINAL RECOVER LOGIN NEEDED` message on the display. Login per SSH by using the password `raspiblitz` and set your Password A again. It can be the same as the old one, but maybe use the occasion to make password change for security reasons. If you had auto-unlock activated you might also be asked to enter your old Password C again. Then it wil make a final reboot.
After your RaspiBlitz is done with catching up the latest blockchain data you should see your status screen displaying your funds and channels. Your backup is complete.
## Can I downgrade from v1.1 to v1.0?
Yes - it was tested one time and worked. Just follow the normal update mechanism - just use the old v1.0 image or your own backup image of the old sd card.

## Why is my "final sync" taking so long?
## Why is my "final sync" taking so long?
First of all if you see a final sync over 90% and you can see from time to time small increase - you should be OK ... this can take some looong time to catch up with the network. Only in the case that you activly choose the `SYNC` option in the `Getting the Blockchain` a final sync under 90% is OK. If you did a torrent or a copy from another computer and seeing under 90% somthing went wrong and the setup process is ignoring your prepared Blockchain and doing a full sync - which can almost take forever on a raspberryPi.
