Tv Software Update Unsuccessful
The day so many of us have been waiting for has finally arrived. The software update is finally beginning to roll out to 1st-gen Fire TVs. The update carries version number 5.0.5 (537174420). So far, I’ve only received confirmation that 1st-gen Fire TVs are receiving this update, but It’s likely older Fire TV Sticks that shipped with non-voice remotes will also receive this update. It’s unclear if this update will also arrive on 2nd-gen Fire TVs.
The day so many of us have been waiting for has finally arrived. The Fire OS 5 software update is finally beginning to roll out to 1st-gen Fire TVs. The update carries version number 5.0.5. Settings System Update Software tells me there's an available update. I select to 'Download and Install' it. The progress bar goes across as expected. After about a minute, I select to 'Update Now'. The screen blanks for a second, and I briefly see a 'Step 1 of 2' screen, then I get: Apple TV Update. The update was not successful. This update includes general performance and stability improvements and these features: Apple TV App: Now available in France, Germany, and the UK.And in the United States, you can browse the new Sports tab for live and upcoming games, and choose your favorite teams to automatically add games to Up Next and receive notifications.
If you have a 2nd-gen Fire TV that you wish to root, be sure you’re until we know whether this version is rootable or not.This is the update that adds to older devices and brings those devices up to Android version 5.1 Lollipop. As always, there is no way to force the update on your device. You can force an update check, but if it’s not your device’s turn to update, then all you can do is wait. Amazon rolls the update out slowly over the course of a couple weeks so some devices will be updated early while others won’t receive the update for a while.
Let us know in the comments once you receive the update, which device you have, and what new features you’ve noticed. The issue regarding Kodi Icon not showing and ikonoTV is showing instead is an issue I also experienced this week on my rooted 1st gen AFTV. I fixed it by renaming the thumbnail and preview PNG files located in SDcard.imagecachecom.amazon.veneziaorg.ikonotv.smarttv.I used ES File Explorer to navigate to the proper folder and renamed it to the same name that ikonotv image files were being named.
Renaming PNG files was done on a Windows PC and transferred back to the Firetv via my home network using ESfileExplorer. Kodi image is now showing up after numerous restarts. (A guide to navigate to imagecache folder is here:note: this issue is completely independent of the the FireTV 5 update topic of this thread. I think ikonotv app is adapting to us changing the PNG icon by downloading new image files with different descriptions of the PNG file & now downloading a 3rd image file that also needs replacement. Images seem to be deleted after I use Clean Master for cleaning AFTV space. So I’m finding the problem recurring daily. If I keep replacing with 3 kodiPNG files then it is fixed temporarily.
No idea if there is a permanent fix for ikonotv icon replacement(maybe we should start using a different app to replace icon instead of ikonotv). 5.1 over toslink/spdif still works here on my Fire TV Stick with Voice Control.I’m hoping they improved performance a bit as Kodi was stuttering (more like an audio cut-out for a fraction of a second once in awhile when the CPU meters pegged for no apparent reason as they regularly do even when nothing is playing in Kodi so I assume Amazon prioritizes background crap over the main application. I’ve been contemplating a 4K Fire TV just to fix it as it’s unacceptable for a song to “skip/stutter” (worse sounding than a record skip) and I know it’s CPU related as it does it far more often if I have it transcode DTS to Dolby Digital or something else that uses more CPU power (e.g. External visualizer).
I’ll have to test more to find out, but I’m not holding my breath. Even my old modified Gen1 Apple TV with an added Broadcom card runnnig OpenElec and 15.2 Isengard never stutters like that so clearly a FireTV Stick should be able to play without running out of CPU power. I don’t think you’ll need a new device. Amazon handles device compatibility a little bit differently than Google. Based on my own experience, they test the apps for device compatibility based on the current software release posted on the official Fire TV software update page. Right now, that still shows the pre-5.0 release for the first-gen Fire TV. Thus, CBS probably can’t yet get the app approved for the first-gen Fire TV since it won’t install on the test devices.
Firmware Update Failed Dell
The Fire TV Stick is a different story now, since the voice remote version is already on a 5.0 build. Even though the update page shows both, I think they’re exclusively using 5.0 on the Stick for testing. This is all just my best guess, of course, but it seems to make sense based on what I’ve seen. I’m currently holding an update to my app until the software update page reflects 5.0 across the board. I’d expect it to pass testing on all 3 devices at that time. I’m pretty sure CBS will do something similar.
Dell Update Unsuccessful
Dear sony mobile team,None of your service center is able to provide the solution for disk encryption problem in any of your xperia devices, they simply give the estimate of pcb/mainboard. Which is very expensive for a software related problem.and also encryption unsuccessful is not the user problem all the time, most of the time when we want to encrypt the phone it automatically give error after restarting.for your software or technical problem customer of sony mobile are suffering, is it good.Thanks in advance becuase I am sure you are not able to provide the perfect solution to customer.
