As soon as it's ready, we have to test some things etc so no ETA.

Don't forget to place enigma into sleep mode first with the telnet command init 4 as these are live system files and very prone to corruption.

Hi Everyone . Newbie here so please go gentle.

Welcome to WoS.

I have had my technomate nano se for about 6 weeks. It came with the vix image preflashed from wos. Anyway I decided to update to 5he latest 155 release dates 26th March and it wiped my box .

Exactly as expected, a full reflash will always wipe the old image before writing the new one.

I tried to run through the setup but was unable to get access to the plugins. Nothing happens it's just a blank box, even with the menu for unstable feeds selected. So I checked the forum and noticed there might be a problem with this latest image. So I reverted back to an older image. 153, 3rd March. This refladhed and now when I try to access the software update menu to select the unstable feeds the package list update is failing, it's saying that feeds are down for maintenance even though the site is shoeing them as stable. It's been like this all day today . So I'm wondering if they are down or if my image is not working correctly ? Also ever since I received my preflashed box the vix backup manager does not work. It says there is a problem with this device , please reformat. It's been saying this since day one . Can anyone advise why it is saying this ?

Format the USB stick, also try reflashing build 161 from www.openvix.co.uk, you can not update from build 153 to a newer build as it may cause problems with skins etc.

Do you know if this will this require another fresh flash without restore?

Thanks.

Yes as it's based on a completely different OE Core, and to make sure no one does use a settings backup against our advice we will rename the image to prevent it.

Sounds a good idea. That will avoid people having problems if they don't visit the forum that often

That is what we have done with all Image versions since discontinuing ViX 3.0 but it still does not stop people moaning that were forcing them to reflash, even if it's to stop them causing unnecessary issues for them selves.

Yes I remember back to vix 3.0 & then the different Greek names to signify a new build run. I just look at it as a fresh flash every so often for the newer features is well worth it & hey it's free.

Don't understand people complaining

Feeds were only unstable for a short while. They are still accessible. in that state, you just have to enable unstable updates..

You cannot access the feeds when they are being updated.
