EOS R6 Mark II - firmware freezes while updating to 1.5

Hi Canon Fam

i am trying to update the firmware on my r6m2. I tried doing it wirelessly via the app, as well as through an SD card.

Each time i select to update the firmware, it shows the option "update current firmware 1.4 to 1.5" and when i select it, it begins the update ( warning me to not turn it off until complete) and then the screen goes black, and into live view on the back screen. Completely cancelling the whole thing.

I have tried at least ten times, and i haven't been able to update. Any help would be super appreciated! Thank you!

Have you tried with one SD card?

Are you remembering to remove the lens, and turn the camera to P mode?
