Apollo 003 released

[Larry-G]

well many users maybe on pre zeus image so would presume whole new reflash and no settings used and start from scratch again:violin:

Eventually people are going to have to either, just suck it up, reflash to a updated image and stop complaining, or resign them selves to using a no longer updated or supported image. as frankly complaining about totally free software all the time is going to get them no where.

It takes me less than the time it takes to make a cuppa to fresh flash any of my receivers so i really do not get the hostility some users have against flashing a image every now and again, and if they really do not like the newer images they simply need to make a Image backup of their current system from which they can restore if needed.

maybe thats why i drive an old car dont do test runs,maybe it was the names i did not like

Or use another image.
I know what I'd prefer to do, learn to flash if you don't know how...
A lot easier than using some other images.
Nobody forces anyone to use ViX. The recent required ViX re-flash's have hopefully helped new users in how easy it is to reflash though.

something about vix would always recommend it to use,its simple and works:thumbsup:

i don't understand why people keep moaning it took me approx 30 mins to flash & restore 2x solo2 boxes

 

[highlander53]

thx for the respons:thumbsup:

Image is released, so it is fine as far as we are aware. You can save your chanenl lists using Dreamset/Dreamboxedit or similar programs.

Reflash und restore of Settings (at least at most it worked - the remaining adjustments were done in 5 minutes): now all works fine with "Apollo 003".

On this occasion of me once again a very big "thank you" to the whole ViX-Team for a really great job. :thumbsup:

I will be reflashing from Vix 3 808 to apollo 003.

Do I save timers xml and autotimers xml to desktop and ftp back to apollo in order to preserve my timers settings ? (Wife has too many to re-enter!)

Thanks

Yep, no problem. Just make sure to stop E2 ('init 4') before adding the files and start E2 ('init 3') again when done.

I don't know how to Telnet using DCC !!!!!

Flash FXP will work though ?

Thanks.

 

[Rob van der Does]

Well, in DCC click on 'Telnet'.

Well, in DCC click on 'Telnet'.

I thought that might be the case, but not sure what to do after that !!

In settingsmanager go to menu and set the extra IPK location.

Hi.
I have a technomate TM-2T, do I have to load a new bootloader first before I flash Apollo?
Thanks, Steve.

Hi Judge. I had Helios on it which I flashed a few weeks ago.

No need for another bootloader flash so.
