Latest updates on Indiegogo

[Vistaus]

I guess I can live a few weeks with V20 since it appears to be working.

Although, frankly, if they do not have the update ready by May 8, *and* bring security level to at least February 2020 level (to address  Bluefrag vulnerability) I'll ask Indiegogo to refund my Astroslide contribution, no matter that it's supposed to be lot cheaper than getting it at retail. It's become clear that long-term support is Planet's most problematic area.  Combined with the other threats (Brexit, second or third wave of COVID19), the risks are just starting to sound too great.

I more or less hoped V22 to land this week with the announcement...

3 weeks to go..

Planet made it very clear that Google needs to re-certify the firmware. So while V20 was a mistake on Planet's behalf for some, you can't blame the delay on V22 on Planet as they need to wait for Google's approval.

As we wait for the update, a question about our de-certified V21. I copied and saved my google-playstore-installed apks to an sd card. One of those apks is Netflix, which is unavailable to V21. If I did a factory reset on my unrooted Cosmo, would the downloaded netflix apk install? Or would I get certification errors, etc?

It's up, sadly no news about linux

We have been testing the V22 Android firmware for Cosmo. We have received the updated GMS approval from Google. We have also updated the security patches up to early April. We will continue testing and we hope to release the new version next week.

New update is out

Cosmo Android V22 firmware

We are still testing the V22 firmware for remaning issues.

We will have a further update on this by the end of this week.


 
Linux Update
 
We have not updated you on Linux for a while, but we have also been working in the background on some features.
 
We are working on the following features:

* Suspend and Resume - on open / close

* Initial Voice Call telephony support
 
Both have now been implemented and are being tested.

Thought we signed up for the testing, but still hyped

Android Firmware – V22 firmware update

We now have a release candidate V22 firmware version and if all is well with the OTA updates we will release it withing the next week. Thank you for waiting for this firmware update.

These random reboots are killing me so fingers crossed...

These random reboots are killing me so fingers crossed...

I noticed that my device does boot if I do something like play music (e.g. https://livetaajuus.fi/radio/radio-rock/ ) over Internet for several hours.

To me this sounds like a memory leak.

Anyway, I posted a question about what's the update process/cycle will be from now on after they finally get the V22 out of the door - but most likely there will be no response.
