you should not have updated online. build 154/155 was a mandatory fresh flash without using backups.

As previously mentioned, fresh flash required, but I'm intrigued... what's a blank flashing icon? How can you see it if it's blank

Why not put a comment to that effect in the Changelog that you can view when doing an on-line update?

That would be useful because not everyone will visit the forum for such instructions before doing an update - albeit when they do visit to request help after updating, they should see the mandatory post advising of the need for a fresh install, and thus avoiding the need to make a post.

Hi Phoenix, bit confused here mate
I was going to do a fresh flash from 153 to 155 as advised but now notice that Apollo 156 is out.
Can you please confirm that I can do fresh flash from 153 to 156 or advise otherwise?
Many thanks in advance.

153 to 156 of available via fresh flash is fine.

After checking the update and changelog forum thread for 156 I saw that the instructions said you could do an online update. (155 was released briefly and withdrawn, so no release notes). I chanced an online update from 153 on a Quad Plus. Went without a hitch, no issues noted. The version of gstreamer hasn't changed. I was just wondering if the proposed changes to kernel and gstreamer have actually happened?

The gstreamer changes will come with the new OE-A core, this image is not based on the new core, it is a intermediary release with updates for the skins etc.
