Display garbled during filament change

I was printing with a very short roll of filament and knew it would run out. The sensor worked great, paused and moved the head and then beeped. It gave me a prompt to unload filament and then load. When I put in the new Filament the display went all garbled. So when I hit the button it started printing before the filament was fully loaded.

Does anyone know if this is a known bug or do I have a problem(i.e. Maybe a bad unit).

I did kind of salvage the print by forcing another reload cycle.

I have the same problem when unloading filament most of the time. It is really unusual if it works. Most of the time the printer displays strange characters and locks up. Sometimes it also says "Static memory overwritten" and then crashes...

Please Prusa, fix the firmware. 🙁

Re: Display garbled during filament change

Is this in the latest "final" firmware or an RC version?

It was the version before. I have to try that later and see if the problems still exists.
