How to Run a Ledger Firmware Update — Ledger Live Step-by-Step

Views0

Ledger firmware updates run from Ledger Live, with confirmations on the device itself.

Steps

  1. Back up the recovery phrase — verify you can read all 24 words.
  2. Update Ledger Live to the latest version.
  3. Connect the device via known-good cable or Bluetooth.
  4. Open My Ledger; Ledger Live detects the pending update.
  5. Click update; confirm each prompt on the device.
  6. Wait — do not unplug or close the app.
  7. When the device reboots and Ledger Live confirms 'up to date', run the Genuine Check.

If it fails mid-update

Don't panic. The device will boot into Recovery Mode. Reopen Ledger Live and follow the prompts to reinstall firmware. Then restore accounts.

Safety reminder: Use only the official Ledger site and Ledger Live. Never type your recovery phrase or PIN into a webpage and never share them with anyone. Pause and verify the moment anything looks unusual.
