LS losing its calibration

Yesterday, after installing the release version of the latest GNSS update, my LS completely lost its leveling calibration. When I went to shoot my first point, it wouldn't start and I finally noticed my leveling was orange and showed 55 degrees out while plumbed up on a bi-pod! I tried to re calibrate and it wouldn't allow me to do so, neither the level nor compass. I was told to try installing the testing version. I did so and it reset everything correctly and worked fine the rest of the day.
This morning I thought that problem wouldn't come back but I had the same thing on my first point. This time is was showing 33 degrees out of level and wouldn't shoot.
I figured, what the heck, so I forced an install of the testing version again, and again it temporarily fixed the level problem - until I turned the unit off and then back on again.
Every time now, when the unit is turned on this is happening. It appears forcing an install of anything resets things and fixes it - temporarily.
Is there a way to uninstall the GNSS update that appears to have caused this and go back a version? If there isn't, there should be. The version I installed was 3.6.9.161226.

Same problem with mine. If I reboot after turning on, my calibration settings come back to normal and It works. But if I shut unit off normally my level and compass calibration is way off and unit will not take a shot.

Darren if you reboot(On/Off harware button>Reboot) does it fix the problem?

No, that's the first thing I did yesterday morning. Just did a standard reboot twice and was still out. Talked with Sibole and he suggested installing testing version and that seemed to fix it.
Then figured out this morning it didn't so I repeated yesterday's process.
When I got back to office, I did a force install on all release updates hoping that would do something. Was fine after the installs, then off and back on and it was off again.

Just turned mine on and calibration is way out of spec. I hit the power button, select the reboot tab on screen and LS comes back on line with all correct callibrations and functions properly. I don't understand why tho. I can reboot again and still keeps calibration and functions. If I shut off and restart with on button calibration is gone until I reboot.

I did a hard reset by holding down the on/off button. I didn't try the reboot button. I'll try that in the morning.

I installed pre release GNSS 3.6.9.161229 and Jfield 2.0.5.667 this morning and it seems to have fixed the problem. I turned the unit on/off three times after install and it was fine all three times.
