Just wondering if anyone has put this update on there unit, and has it helped or should I stay with the 2.1 version I have on there now? Having problems with the depth flashing and screen freezing up for a second here and there.

This has been a reoccurring problem for the musky guys as of late. I copy/pasted this part from Ron Hunter. Ron is the Lowrance technical support for the professional walleye trails. I'm not sure about updating to the new version or not, but this is something you can try, it just might help with the flashing depth in shallow weeds.

Go to overlay data and uninstall your depth. Then exit, then go back to overlay data to the sonar and reinstall the depth, this should fix your problem. Locking up on the shallow water in weeds drop the ping speed to 25%, drop the color line to 60% and drop the sensitivity. If still having problems go to http://www.lowrance.com/en/Support/Contact/ and they should be able to help.

Here is the link to the thread.
