Got it

Got it last night.

One problem... it won't take my PIN number. Called voom and they'll get back with an answer.

Anyone else having the same problem?

Got it last night here in Orlando.
The STB was off this morning and had to unplug it to come back on. Then it had no sat signal after boot up. Did a soft reset with the front button then it rebooted again and everything looks OK so far.
Channels surfing with no pixelation but pic slow to come up.
Sent Sean some vid caps to post.

I called VOOM and they have no clue about this update. So who do i call and find out when I'm going to get it?

 

[Sean Mota]

It is not a mass distribution yet. It is sent in random bunches. Wait until your stb is target. This is a safe approach to send the upgrade just in case the first one find it not to be up to part, VOOM can look at the complaints and stop from going to everyone. So hang in there as the software will get to your stb this week or next week as it is sent daily.

But why is it VOOM has no clue what I'm talking about? LOL I think they need to FIRE all of the CSRs and start from scratch. This companies CS is soooo poor it's unbelievable. I mean everytime I call I get a different answer. I mean come on they all work for the same company, they should all give us the same answer. The people at my local cable company "Cox" are smarter then these gabonzos

 

[Sean Mota]

Don't know the answer to your question about VOOM CSRs. I stop playing russian roulette with them a long time ago and come to this place to get more facts about VOOM.

I saw something in those pics......How in the heck do you have 31 OTA channels? I'm in Las Vegas and only have 11

 

[Sean Mota]

Not me but the person who provided me with those pics has 31 OTA channels. Here in NYC I have 44 OTA channels. Most of which I do not care because are different PBS channels with subchannels that come from NJ, Long Island, and other locations. The are some some religious channels as well which I do not care. I hope that answers your question.

 

[FreddyvsJasonvsAsh]

oh ok

 

[dnyce]

So does the Caller ID work? I've been waiting for that one!!

 

[Ilya]

So does the Caller ID work? I've been waiting for that one!!

Yes! It's now implemented!

 

[vurbano]

Its been over a year since Voom started and they are just now implementing caller id? Whoever is managing the programming of this Moto should be FIRED!!!!!

 

[stockymd]

So does the caller ID only work with the new update you guys are talking about.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

I still wish they would give us the option of displaying the time on the front of the VOOM receiver since the LED's for the clock are already there.

Nice attitude vurb!
Trash them anytime they deliver something. There is always something to complain about, isn't it?

Yeah, I was wondering the same thing? Why doesn't the time show up on the LED? You can clearly see that it's meant to.
