Is the chat broken? Has anyone received this update yet? Am I being too impatient?

I'm just extremely tired of this h20-100. It sucks. I hope this CE release makes it suck less. :(

After four or five attempts, I finally received it. Thanks, Earl! For those having trouble, I had to "reset all" before it worked.

I spent five minutes trying out the new features and they all worked. I'll play around more tomorrow and report if I find out anything more.

Good night.

Hey guy's,
I did a CE update for the H-20-100 last night.
Now, when I look to see what the software says is currently is, it is correct but it says :
0x204A - Tuesday 7/31 at 3:42a

Why is it showing the wrong date and time, with the correct software ?

Any thoughts ???

Ignore the date and time for the download, it's always incorrect and according to Earl is something that will take more effort to fix then it's worth. It does show the correct date/time when the code is automatically updated by D*, just forced downloads are incorrect.

Thanks Rad,
I didn't know if it was anything I should look into or not,it's the first CE I've done for this unit !

I tried this download several times, but no update...what is a staggered download?

A staggered download is one that D* sends out, a "National Release" you don't have to do anything to get it,it will show up sometime in the early morning.
It is one that D* usually starts on the West coast and sends across the country, but not all at the same time.

Jimbo
 
so, can I download before I am scheduled to get it?

No you will not be able to download it ahead of time.
Was there something perticular that you were looking for.

IF you decide to start doing the CE 's Cutting Edge Updates, they come out regularly, but I advise to read all the rules and regs so you know what your getting into IF you go that route.

Do you know when Wisconsin or the midwest will get this upgrade?
