after version 5.0.781 was updated Monday afternoon I had unplugged it from power.
This morning reconnected the 4900. After boot up, I headed directly into the update menu to check that first.
To surprise it had already received the update 5.0.782 , as this is what is showing now.

That was fast. I only had it connected to internet maybe 2 minutes :eek:

What model do you have?

As for selected few I would guess that at least 70% have upgraded to Buzztv 5.

after you remove your Mac from provider side you open up server settings on your buzz, navigate to XC API option. enter your portal, username/password will be your donation code and make sure to enter as it shows on provider site (case sensitive). then connect and you should be good.

These Buzztv devices have different configurations then each other.
Some have the Android 9 OS while some have the Android 11 OS
Some have the Buzz4 app while some have the Buzz5 app

Not all boxes will take the same updates.
This is the reason why some will not get certain updates, but does not mean that the device will never get an update again. They do eventually, when needed.

New Update
Buzz 5 V5.0.937

- P6 PowerStation
V5.0.937 did not install on the P6 128 w/Android 13 and Buzz5 app.
But another Beta file did install for the P6 ... and we are now up to Version 1.0.28 with the P6/Buzz6 app :)
This time the PowerStation device did not have to be rebooted (power cycled with the power cord). The New Update message appeared soon as I fired up the P6 device and while still on the Home Screen, cool beans :)

- X5 128 SuperSport
V5.0.937 did not install on the X5 128 SS w/Android 13 and Buzz 5 app.

- X5 128 AI
V5.0.937 did install on the X5 128 AI w/ Android 11 OS and Buzz5 app.
The New Update message appeared automatically, once I connected thru the Buzz5 app.

- XRS4900
V5.0.937 did install on the XRS4900 w/Android ?? OS and Buzz5 app.
I am not sure of the Android OS version, as the text is out of resolution as seen in the menu. I never did or could set that. It almost looks like it is Android 9, but can't say for sure:(
This New Update thru the 4900 did not appear on Home Screen, nor did it when Buzz5 was accessed. I then pulled the power cord and reconnected and then opened the Buzz5 app and there was the Update message :)

installation process took only seconds with both devices.

c/p

We turned it off just now

We were testing sending 937

However it seems like we will need to do a Firmware update instead, as the app OTA is not working properly

Will fix it for future updates in the Firmware update.
