Me too. Taking a little longer than I thought to reinstall apps from scratch. Was pleased with how smoothly the two updates went.
Did ya ever feel like the guy in the room with the dunce cap on.
Happy Anniversary PapaS. We both joined Insider on the same day.
Right back at ya @Steve_Vee. And what a great place to be, I canāt believe its been a year.
Iām a member of that club. 365 days same as you two. wooohooo.
And you as well PapaS. Nice to be part of a distinguished group. Have a wonderful day.
Iām sitting here laughing at my own stupidity. I think I just figured out why thereās a piece of cake beside my avatar. Between the 3 of us, thereās alot of cake in this thread.
So we can have our cake and eat it. Pretty cool. 365 days for me without a missed day visiting here. Nice to have met you and Vee Papa. I look forward to more in the future.
My cake day was yesterday canāt believe a year learned a lot thanks to everyone involved here
To be honest pretty much anything would have been smoother than the state of my box before that update. But its now like having a new toyā¦and yes starting from scratch as it wiped everything.
Hate to sound so stupid but am I to understand that if I want this update I need a computer and also this will be like starting all over again?
Thats what mine did. I applied the patch as instructed and the box re-booted to a prompt to setup my remote<<< 1st clueā¦then normal install setup from scratch.
Its a fairly big update with multiple updates
So if I donāt update, is my box eventually toast?
Glad it worked out for you. Happy to see your X5 off the injured reserve list and back in the game.
Well, thertes good and bad for the X5. The shield came in with all the x5 failures and now its not going anywhere ā¦ its just a better interface than any other box ive triedā¦nuff saidā¦so the x5 will become a backup or put on a lesser used tv for now. I still prefer tivimate to the x5 iptv playerā¦just need tivimate to incorporate local tv tuners and im good
Update- I posted my no computer problem on stbtalk and questioning if my device would become toast eventually without the update. Well lo and behold @allaboutbuzz sent me a ptivate message requesting my product receipt and they are now sending me an sdcard with the files on it. Gotta say Iām impressed with that kind of service.
very cool, bout time they contacted all device owners with that firmware and helped them out too.
Just remember PapaS that firmware will erase the box and start over, so prepare now
That sucks but what can you do, maybe Iāll stash that sdcard away and just wait cause I prefer tivimate also so if the only changes are mostly for the buzz5 app, I donāt want any changes.
