Hi,
I have tried to update the firmware of the Canon 77D dlsr, from ver 1.0.2 to 1.1.0.
The first time I did it - it was stuck in the 99th percentage of the process.
The only option available to see in the camera (after removing and installing back the battery) is the Firmware Update program.
I then used other cards, formating the cards both using other similar Canon DSLR (not the exact model - Rebel T5i) and trying to both update to 1.1.0 or 1.0.3, each time the result is the same (I have once managed to get to 100% but it was stuck there..)
Any help will be appreciated!!

Good News: I was been able to recover the camera!!
I have first sent the camera to the official Canon lab in my country (Israel) with no luck - they said they need to replace the whole electronic circuit (with a cost of a new camera).
So I have downloaded a boot file called Portable ROM dumper from the Magiclauntem site, copied to the sd card (after formating in PC) and loaded it to the camera. This make the camera to write in screen the software version and so on, but especially it enabled the camera to understand that the current version which is installed is broken.
Afterwards, I have used the normal canon version file (delete the sd card and copy it) and then inserting to the camera and the upgrade process have successfully ended.
The difference in the upgrade screen now (after using the Portable ROM dumper) was that now the upgrade said it is from version 0.0.0 to 1.0.3, where beforehand it was 1.0.2->1.0.3

Did you now formatted the card again and put the right canon version again? Are you sure that now you are using the right canon firmware and a right sd card type?

Yes, delete all the files except of the update fir and try to do the upgrade again. Now it should work given that you see 0.0.0 -> 1.0.3
