[Solved] WIWA MAXX New firmware - I would be grateful for the information

Is there a new checked firmware for this decoder?


Regards.

Unfortunately, WIWA has never made any firmware available on its websites for ever. You have the option to contact wiwa serwis (generally helps) or check OTA update (Internet required)

They used to make it available, but these are prehistoric times.

This is not a problem, I have this option (LAN and WIWA USB WiFi adapter), but before using this option, I would prefer to find out from my colleagues if there is something new, proven, not necessarily from the manufacturer's side.

This bottom equipment is, in my humble opinion - his EPG is depressing. Not like the previous Wiva ...

But cheap.
Just explain it to the client.
This is where the "problem" is.

MAXX is a misunderstanding for me.

Yes, but it has two USB ports.

I had Wiwa Lite and it was downloading software from the internet. It worked without a complaint. This is a successful model.

WIWA H.265 LITE That was what I had.

Adjustment. As it turns out, they are not dead, but there is a problem with turning on the YT. Once it connects, the second time it doesn't.

Generally, all DVB-T tuner manufacturers that have this application implemented have a problem with YT. This is due to the fact that YT frequently changes the api, and the firmware developers rarely update it, because, as they say, the YT application is an added value without a guarantee of proper operation.
WIWA is no exception to this

I know.
The software can be downloaded from the Internet and this is probably the only way.
I was downloading 2x. If it is possible, make a copy of what you have, because there is no way back. Fortunately, the newer versions were only better and didn't break anything, so it should be the same here as well.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to rip to full length, and direct reading from memory, in my opinion, does not make sense so far.

My observations on these tuners ..
Wiwy has many bugs in the software, the website is not eager to remove them. The last firmware was from November 2020
The weather app no longer works on these tuners. Wiwy claims that the distributor turned it off. Youtube works once and fails. Internet applications can crash LITE and PRO tuners when trying to run them. WIWA MAXX has problems with the bars showing the duration of a given program from the beginning, once it shows no, in Pro and LITE it works well. All these tuners have a problem with the TIMESHIFT function (forcing the channel change when this function is active leads to the tuners being suspended) ..

Various firmware found on the Internet. Files packed in zip format. You have to unpack it before uploading. Of course you upload at your own risk ..

Instructions recommended by the WIWY service
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ----
Factory reset must be performed before and after the update.

So we start with:

- press the "menu" button on the remote control.
- select the "System" tab (gear)
- choose "Restore factory settings"
- password: 000000

Next:

- press the "menu" button on the remote control.
- select the "System" tab (gear)
- select "Software update" -> "USB update"

After the update is complete, the decoder will reset itself. We restore
reset to factory settings.
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -

I have not done factory settings once. For me it is a mockery, a witchcraft mary.
It is as if everything has come in and now kick in .... to make it work out.
Factory settings only change what the user has entered and he will enter it as he had ...

This instruction is sent by the WIWY service, I wrote it.
The factory settings on these tuners will not restore everything to the factory state. Such lists to IPTV, once uploaded, will remain in the tuner's memory, even after restoring factory settings. You can remove them by uploading an "empty" list of xxx.m3u or old firmware (you will then be able to delete them)

You can also upload too large IPTV list and it will also delete the previous one.

Gentlemen, "grace."
I am grateful for all the advice, but I would not like to be sneered by me because of me.

@ 2 Tom How can I download this file ?:

Successfully downloaded, I'll check it tomorrow and let you know.

EDIT:

Updated to version: ... 0.52 Nov 10 2020.
The problem still remained (EPG and more).

Thank you for your help.
For now, I leave the topic open, maybe something new will appear in the meantime.

Regards.

Why don't you throw it in the trash like I did? This decoder is good for nothing! The Wiwa company made this product out of spite. She lost clients. I, for example, will not buy anything from this company.

Thanks for such comprehensive advice. :wink:

Regards.

After installing version V5.0.0.54 the decoder works even worse. After each power outage in the socket, all channels are deleted and you have to re-upload them about their arrangement, if I do not mention it. YT still doesn't work. It is impossible to go back to the previous versions of the software. WIWA will probably not correct it anymore, because if it were to do it, it would have already done so. If anyone else has the option of returning this sell, they should do so.

So the Wiwa H.265 Lite remains.

The software you have installed, V5.0.0.54, is very old and buggy, and you want to go back to an even older one ... Why don't you install the last available version, V5.1.0.52?

Apparently you came across a damaged decoder.

This 52 doesn't come in anymore.

Rather, you are doing something wrong. You have links above. You are downloading V5.1.0.52 for WIWY MAXX. You unpack the file itself on a USB flash drive, preferably FAT32 formatted and install according to the instructions.. Or connect the tuner to the Internet and do online updates..

I'm doing everything right. It is neither pendrake nor net. It was the soft one, after uploading the old one, no other one comes in. End of period

What old one?

carambus wrote:

After installing the version of V5.0.0.54

Such soft, if there is one, is probably not a decoder ( WIWA MAXX ).

Soft V5.0.0.54 is like that, it's probably from February 2020 .. Exactly it's called "upgrade_7T31E_HW3.1.RC20.4.1_WIWAMAXX_V5.0.0.54.bin" ..

In this link you have several soft. From oldest to newest. After uploading the oldest one, you will not upload any newer ones. Check on your own

Added after 2 [minutes]:

You can then hack the decoder to save your nerves. Anyway, they are defective and none of the available soft products can remove their disadvantages. Let's face it, this is junk
