[VU+ Duo2] Guilty as charged - Upgrade error

[ukoberon]

Ok - first things first - I confess, i updated my Vu+ Duo 2 without checking the forum and the instructions on here for flashing. My Bad :nono:
So after doing s standard Setup/Software update i realised that something wasnt right as i still kept getting the update icon and 13 items found in update list. Subsequently i have done the Couch Flash on the box and restored settings - the icon still appears. I then did it again .... this time it didnt ask me if i wanted to do settings restore....

But i am still seeing the Update Icon and 13 items to update.

I don't know what else to try and am very nervous about losing all of the refinement and personalisation i currently have.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

thanks.

Are you sure you have actually downloaded and couch flashed the latest version (036)?

 

[ukoberon]

Yes the info panel shows me the version as being Version 3.2 Build 036 Gstreamer 1.7.1

Login to the box and run:

opkg list-upgradable

which will at indicate what it thinks can be updated.

 

[ukoberon]

think ive done this right - heres what i get as a response:

Pretty sure that means that you've done an online upgrade to 36 from a previous version. You need to make sure you're couch flashing direct to 36

 

[duoduo]

Silly question but after downloading the 036 image, you are clicking on it to go through the install process aren't you? Vix/image manager

 

[ukoberon]

so originally i did do the online as per OP - but then did the cuch flash subsequent by downloading via image manager and restoring the downloaded image to box

 

[chaser]

So, just to be clear, this is what you downloaded and couch flashed?

openvix-3.2.036.release-vuduo2_usb.zip

If so, then I'm not sure what's wrong. Might be worth trying to re-download and couch flash again. If that doesn't work, then try USB flash?

 

[ukoberon]

yes the file is correct version but shows slightly different configuration of name but is definitely 3.2.036 . tried again - still not worked looks like i will have to do USB flash over weekend.

@duoduo
yes highlighting in and then pressing ok

If the name is not the same it is not the right file. Sounds like you are loading a user backup image that you have created from your 036 online update.

I think you may be right ! Doh!
Will confirm tomorrow as otherwise i may be divorced for keeping messing with the box !

 

[ukoberon]

Thank you Huevos you was correct - Box all sorted now. Thank you all.
