Yesterday while returning home from a long ride, my Boom Box completely shut down while riding. It rebooted on it's own shortly after. I was running the GPS at that time and listening to some music. When I finally arrived, I saw on my phone a missed important call that I was waiting for. That call was missed around the same time the system crashed. Phone was connected via Bluetooth to the Boom Box. Has anyone else had problems like this? I have not updated the software yet because I have not seen any of the issues noted for the updates. Bike was purchased in December 2014.

 

I've accepted several calls over the last year, with various versions of the O/S and have not encountered that issue.

 

Were you playing tunes from a bluetooth connection of the same phone? If so, I have heard of these reports on other forums and other head units. Mainly in autos but wouldn't surprise me of it happening with Boom too.

 

No radio was tuned to an FM station. GPS/map running, phone connected via bluetooth. I had received a call earlier with no problem. Just when I needed the GPS the most, the whole system shut down, blank screen for about 10 seconds and then it started to reboot. Came back on and it seemed to work okay. Wondering if when the call came in it crashed.

 

I see that this post is a few years old, but I am having the same symptoms on my 17 CVO Limited. Boom! Box crashes and reboots on its own. Has happened when listening to music on my iPod, as well as when listening to FM radio and using the navigation system. I'm on version 1.22.0.1 I think (latest version as of this post).

Does anyone have any info on the cause or a solution?

 

The latest version is total junk!! Been no updates since Dec and they need a better one now!

 

I was running 120.1.3 for a long time, I went to the dealer for the CB-CC button switch and they had to update the boom software to the latest version. The next 3 rides I had problems, freezing, blank screens, I went back to the 120.1.3 and no more problems, all working fine. Good luck!

 

Thanks guys. I think I'll download the previous update from the website and give it a try. Didn't have any problems with it when I bought the bike, but now it seems to be happening a lot.

 

 

i had no problem with mine until i did the latest update too
