Firmware version mismatch?
« on: July 17, 2007, 06:08:15 pm »
Hello, all!
Thanks for this awesome forum to support this incredible device!

I bought a new oem vw phatbox off ebay and it's working great I have the latest version of PMM and am having no issues with the box...

but, I do have a question:
I have updated the firmware from the PMM software and when I put the DMS in the Phatbox it looks like it is updating( the green light flashes for several minutes) and I start it up and it works, but when I go to the settings menu (from my cd player) and select #3 "about this firmware"  it tells me that the current firmware version is 3.something.    but when I look at my DMS in PMM it tells me it is version 7.something.

As I said before, everything works, but it is confusing me.
Also, if my firmware really isn't updating, are there features I'm missing out on?
Most of my files are .ogg, and I couldn't load them until I got the Phatnoise Media Manager, but everything else seems to work.

Any ideas?
thanks,
Chris

chances are good that (if you are hearing the message when you push buttons on your HU) that they just never updated the voice prompt that has the version number.

Great!  I'll stop worrying about it then.
Thanks
