firmware update today
- Thread starter NBS
- Start date
I just tried this Marley and same result. Is the file stored somewhere because I would like to delete it and have it download completely again? What I notice is that when I reboot/power up, the upgrade shows but it isn't downloading anymore. Quickly jumps to the dialogue that states it will be rebooted immediate, click yes or cancel.
for HelpMe, I'm trying to determine where the update is stored, but it may have been deleted after the completion of the update.
If you are still having issues, try doing a factory reset of the box, in Preferences> More settings > Personal > Reset.

Dara will this wipe out everything [kodi settings, live tv server addresses etc? i spent a lot of time configuring this and would hate that I loose everything
Unfortunately, yes. You may have no other recourse. You could try going to the Update app, and then trying a manual update, if it will let you. You could back up your Kodi configuration, if you still can get to Kodi and use a backup/utility add-on like Indigo.
I found that the BACKUP addon in KODI does not work with kodi ver 17.6 ..I use plugin.video.usbwizard-1.2.3.zip works like a charm (backup and Restore)

Yeah, unfortunate. I think the IPTV update is probably triggered by an action, waiting is 'safe' but if the update is waiting for a device request, it may not be seeing it on some boxes, or something like that. It shouldn't ever take more than a few minutes as the apk is pretty small, though imbedded in the OS.
I believe it is only for Kodi............it saves everything when you backup....even the shortcuts you may have put in
During the 1/4 part of the update it said "installing DTVPlayer" (which took a while), and I see DTV Player in the apps. I tried launching it and it says to connect the device and relaunch the player. I was thinking "what device" then it dawned on me, this is the app to run the over the air (OTA) broadcast channels on that USB device you can get for the Buzz. I had completely forgotten about that feature of this box. I was hoping the OTA channels would have been integrated into the live TV part of the box so that one could move from OTA channels to IPTV channels seamlessly instead of closing one app and opening another....Oh well. I still would like to look more into the OTA portion of this box.
I suspect you only underwent the Android system update in that amount of time. It indeed is fast. The Buzz TV update, however, is a long, slow process.
There might be ways to speed up the Buzz TV portion of the update by pressing some buttons on the remote (as some have related), but I chose to let it run its course. It took over 2:30 hours.
