Firmware option gone from menu?

HI

I've just got a Canon M camera and all was fine until I cleared all settings after downgrading from 2.0.3 to 2.0.2 so I could add magic lantern . Now the Firmware update selection isn't showing in the menu in any mode, including A, camera or video? Any ideas?

Menu options disappear in full auto.  Are you in green auto or M mode?

Tried in all 3 modes and the firmware option has simply gone.

I just tested this on my M running 2.0.2.  Top dial is set to the middle position (not green mode and not video).  I cleared all regular and custom settings.  After clearing settings, the camera reverted to CA (creative auto) mode.  Tapped the touchscreen to switch to M (manual) mode.

Below is what I am seeing on my camera after this process

Are you seeing the same number of tabs across the top?

Have you figured out the problem? I am having the same problem!

It shows up for me in P mode, under the wrench icon, screen 5 at the bottom. I’m running V 1.0.4
