After this latest Beta update, seems MOL2 keeps closing and shows an error onscreen.
I do not know if this latest Beta and the error are related, but yous might want to hold off in loading this beta version till we find out.

My T3 is not showing any update ready to load or update yet THX for the heads up.

When you go to update page then type 0227 and you will see red button pop up @ bottom right corner. Hit red button on RCU and you will see a beta software available or unless it's pulled out

of course im just saying thats how to check lol I always follow modz instruction. thats why we have this forum lol

 

[crazed 9.6]

of course im just saying thats how to check lol I always follow modz instruction. thats why we have this forum lol

I been meaning to follow up on this and I did connect up this Z8 device (which is same as the T3) and this Z8 did not yet have the new beta update installed, so I thought would be a good test to check if reaction was same.... but... I turned the z8 on and Hell Boy3 was there just waiting to be watched , so ummmm... no update done yet... no test zone.. Hell Boy is on !!!

 

[Ryu]

thanks crazed

 

[crazed 9.6]

Bond is on now.. one of the Daniel Craig Bonds !!!
Damn , how can I turn that off ??

Okay, stay tuned. I will get this 'test' done !
I did look on chat sites where techs report and seen none of the issue I have.., so it may be just me
How many times I heard that in last 135 years

 

[crazed 9.6]

I turned Bond off
Did I tell yea that it was a Daniel Craig Bond !!???

Beta update in progress.

 

[Ryu]

thats right crazed.
lol 135 ahahaha r u drinking Canadian boss

 

[crazed 9.6]

Update went well on the Z8 and MOl2 does not crash.
So next thing to do is get that T3 connected again and do a factory default on it... but Craig's Bond is back again.

What to do ??!!

 

[tvlarry]

If you load the Beta Software and find out that it has faults you can always remove the new updated firmware and restore back to the original but you will need a new T3 box from another source to do it. On the other T3 new box perform a Backup to USB, then you can use that Backup after you perform a factory reset on your original box that has the defective MOL2. After you perform a factory reset, use your Backup from a new T3 to Restore your original T3 that you did the reset on. I performed this already on an actual defective MOL2 app on a T3 after trying a factory reset did not cure the issue which was after starting the MOL2 the m3u started to load then the application quit with error message and reverts back to home page.

I know your point and thanks for the info but real question is how many of them have more than 1 T3 to make backup?

 

[Marley]

let me see me no so thats one

T3 working fine again.
I had not yet done a factory default and was about to, so connected the power to the T3 and tested the MOL2 first thing before the default, and it works fine now.
No Factory Default needed.

So I guess maybe just the power cycle fixed any issue that I may have had.

 

[crazed 9.6]

oh and as I suspected, this new (Beta) update fixed my Screenshot issue as well.
Taking screenshots and saving to USB file works again.

I posted awhile ago about this issue I had with the Screenshot function (which arose when I attempted taking a screenshot of the opened ES File Explorer app)
http://iptvtalk.net/showthread.php?41289-Dreamlink-T3-Screenshots

Now I am gonna make that Back-Up as tvlarry outlined and then go ahead and try taking another shot of that ES Explorer... I do love the challenge, or maybe just the punishment
