Next firmware update, there should be a screen, during the bootup, reminding gamers that 4 rings just mean to check the plugs, that is if firmware can't correct the ring setup anyway.

That confusion has led to a lot of perfectly working systems sent for repairs (meaning the 30% return rate is at the very least inflated), causing real repairs to be backed up.

 I don't completely believe that since you're supposed to call their tech support if you suspect you have a problem. Maybe some people got it wrong, but I'm sure one of the top things to check for on the tech support checklist is the warning the red rings are giving you.
