How to upgrade

 

Thanks Mirror I will give it at go in the evening

 

Wow what a great improvement, really like the new visualization of the SACD and also the dynamic lyrics ... really cool, need more time to test it but seems a great step ahead !

 

....looking forward to the release of 2.2.61 for the x20!!

But AGAIN: Please provivde a FULL IMAGE for flashing!!!!

 

I was really happy to see an update. While not upgraded to this new release. First impressions ... better sacd playback, but only if i play 1 or 2 tracks,more system crush, music player is the same as before.Do you have any advice how should I name it the albums and song titles to MP 3.0? Now find only a few tracks for each albums.

 

....good question, i am waiting for an answer since months. See here: http://forum.zidoo.tv/index.php?threads/sacd-iso-database-for-music-player-3-0.44743/

 

Maybe Zidoo should sign this fw as beta.Zidoo stuff tested this upgrade? My result is: freezing..freezing and freezing.More times than 2.1.30. Tested with an hour to listen music..and 3 hours to watch mkv movies.
Freezing comes in several methods...after boot menu / during movie playback HD only / when browsing files / when using music player. Annoying

 

No freezing here after ~4 hours continuous uptime (playing music mainly) today.

Without knowing what you have installed, your previous firmware upgrade path. etc it might be worth doing a full system reflash followed by installing 2.2.61. So this first: https://www.zidoo.tv/Support/support_guide/guide_target/s4IATT9GbZ7eq7k9e[ld]3ulg==.html , then install 2.2.61. That will fully wipe the box and install a factory clean 2.2.61 firmware.

Without the reflash you could try a factory reset followed by the 2.2.61 install, which should do similar.

 

@futeko.com and Zid2019: This adds to my general dislike of OTA Updates. Installing several OTA updates over another with other apk´s installed only leads to problems imho.

Sadly Zidoo seems to be not willing to publish the latest (stable) FW´s as full images. I have been asking for this since months....

 

The way Zidoo does emergency flashing is writing a running SYSTEM image directly to flash. This entirely relies on the boot-loader instead of an Android install procedure which implicitly involves elevated risks. It is the best recovery method possible though so who am I to say it is the wrong method. I don't recommend it for regular updates though.

Doing a factory restore should provide you with a clean system as desired. You could make it a habit doing so always before any OTA update. This is what most other Android products do implicitly when an emergency re-install is done from USB pressing the reset button during power-on..

 

I've just upgraded through usb, after I downloaded the zip file from this topic. Without system flash.I hope this is the problem.Lets see. After that I have to build up the whole HT catalog.

 

I always do a factory reset before and after updating the firmware, it is the safest way to deal with this SoC.

And it is also recommended to unplug from the mains for a minute or so.

 

So what do you think factory reset is enough instead of a system flash?

 

IMHO a factoy reset before and after should be enough, try this before flashing your box.

Regards.

 

Ok but "before" is impossible because the new fw already installed yesterday.Now I made a factory reset.Now It looks like there is no freezing..but also no sound with SACD dff files.
So I will make a flash..than install v2.2.61 again.

 

What kind of sacd visualization do you mean?

 

Hi!, if Im in the 1.7.8 version its possible to update directly to v.2.2.61 or i need to install the updates in order of release?, thank you!

 

After updating to v.2.2.61 SACDs don't play anymore. I made a flash with v1.2.28 via usb 3.0, and then updated to v.2.2.61. It worked perfectly on v2.1.40. Will factory reset help with this problem? Not sure about that. Are there any solution for this? Thanks in advance.

 

I had the same issue, after a system flash and upgraded to v2.2.61.There wasnt sound with sacd.I spent an hour maybe to swith every menu setting on and off, I mean audio settings.And somehow the problem solved.
I dont know what I switcehd off or on. But the sacd playback is same bad like with older fw's. There is no any impovement.

 

Do loose SACD sound occasionally too, after playing any PCM type of audio it next works again. Started with this FW.
