New Firmware Update for OBi110 (Version 1.2.0 Build 2102)

Post by lcompton »

Good evening.

Obihai cut a maintenance release of the firmware for the OBi110 on 1 April 2011. You can download version 1.2.0 build 2102 here.

Obihai is calling this a maintenance release of 1.2. Unfortunately, Obihai is not disclosing what changes were made in this maintenance release. :(

I've upgraded my two OBi110's and they appear to be functioning just fine. :)

Enjoy!

EDIT: O.M.G.! Check out this crazy feature:
Telephone Initiated OBi Software Updates
OBi users can now check for software updates from the phone attached to their OBi and the OBi’s on-board attendant. By picking up the phone attached to the OBi and dialing * * * 6, the OBi Attendant will check to see if there is a new software update and if there is one, allow the user to automatically update their OBi.
Thank you.

Lisa :)

WOW way cool. Did you update?? I hate to do a firmeware update without knowing what it was for. If I do not have the problem(s) the update is supposed to fix, I usually pass on the update.

EDIT: I just checked on my phone if I needed an update ( WAY cool feature by the way) but it said no. I guess the new OBi100 came already updated, which works for me, just like the OBi :)

Yes, I did update my OBi110's.

The update doesn't apply to the OBi100's. You'll see why in my next post...
Thank you.

Okay, here's what appears to be fixed with this maintenance release (build 2102).

Here's a bug report for build 2102. If you're using your line port, you may want to hold off on this upgrade until Obihai fixes it in the next release.

Since I don't use my line port, this issue doesn't affect me. It may also explain why this update doesn't apply to the OBi100.

Enjoy! :)

P.S. Gizmo5 is still up and running here!
Thank you.

Lisa :)

I read about the reset issue yesterday in the forum and how it was affecting some users. Pretty amazing how quickly they produced an update.
So far I am impressed with the company and it is always good to read the forums for any device one buys. SO much info.. Same as here..
Thanks Lisa.
