To fix ongoing problems with packages I decided to do a Factory reset #2 to stock software. Everything went great until the wizard started updating the device. The device reported failed update with X on the screen and proceeded to the next screen. This results in a timeout. I tried this three times with the same result each time. Then I disabled automatic updates and proceeded to run with stock software.
I’m surprised the device can’t be reset and updated. The updates are the main feature, why is it broken?
i too am having the same issue, i dusted off my turris omnia and reinstalled in my home, i did a factory reset (reset button, 3 lights, flash back to factory settings) . when it tried to update itself in the beginning setup wizard it wasn’t able to update and marked an x on the screen saying it failed, which hindered me from further using the device so i had to do another factory reset just to bypass auto updates so it would work off the reset. what is going on here? i need help since all my firmware is back to factory and nothing is updated (security, qos, wifi problems)
i also have an issue where wifi goes out after a reboot, causing me to have to reboot the device a second time in order for it to come back on. (pulls hair out)
The initial wizard is broken. If you disable updates first, configure the router and then re-enable updates later it starts working as expected. The software image Omnia shipped with is currently broken this way after they apparently changed DNS and SSL certificates.
ok i did this, and now the kernel sais 3.6.1 version number. is this correct for the latest firmware? and if this is how did it not ask for a reboot when it installed it, it didn’t say anything after i enabled auto updates later when setting it up, just curious on that front as to how it downloaded the update in the background , thought it would take a long time
