Android 11 boxes use A/B Updater
So its installs as it downloads

And just requires a reboot when its finished.

WOW, it looks like the suspend option is finally working as it should!!

When put in the suspend mode it shuts off the box, blue light turns to red just like my XRS4500 boxes do. 

Now the only thing we need is the backup and restore function.

before update mine always went into suspend mode even though shut down is selected

now the box stays on

turned virtual off but blue light stays on but box goes into suspend

Edited by dishuser

turned cec switch off

turned virtual back on and on shutdown it suspends and light turns red

 

I just updated and the bluetooth continues to not work - not a huge issue but helpful to not have to use IR remote all the time. 

Restarted several times. 

I have XRS4900

Anyone else having  this issue?

this thread is for the u5

I’m still stuck with the V20220624 firmware.  Is there a timeframe for an update.  Still a lot of issues!
