Iridium Go dead after 2 days

Got an Iridium Go and after 2 days it starts going crazy, not working most the time, sluggish, telling me I have 11 hours of time when the battery is actually dead, etc

I tried hard reset, removing the battery, etc. Nothing works.

What now? You have to be a dealer to update firmware.

What now?

All iridium GOs are sluggish anybody can update the firmware but you need a PC, can’t do it with a phone or tablet.

Re: Iridium Go dead after 2 days

I just did a firmware update. it is easy enough with a laptop. The latest release is 'maxwell 2.1.22'. You can get it here:

If this is a new Iridium Go that is acting up after two days it may be a hardware issue.
