New device unboxed a couple of days ago. Cannot use OTA to upgrade, says current software is up to date even though it is not. Without a current kernel I cannot download tango core, etc. So the device is basically non-functional (other than a plain tablet :-)) out of the box.
Same problem as this question:
Cannot update Tango Core - "Package file was not signed correctly"
Factory resets did not fix the problem. Unlike the previous question, waiting 48 hours provided no resolution. Several users on the Google+ developer group are having similar issues with this batch of devices, so this seems to be a common problem
Thanks!
We had an error in our OTA server configuration that we fixed this morning. This might take some time to propagate, but you should start seeing updates soon. Sorry for the inconvenience!

A few system updates ago I had trouble receiving the OTA for the Tango. It appears that a similar problem has occurred again.
My Tango core has successfully updated to the Pythagoras revision, but my kernel version still reads build KOT49H.150505. I have tried the obvious things such as clicking on "check for updates" in the "About tablet" settings menu, but I still get that my system is up to date.
On the developer release notes it says that the kernel build should be KOT49H.150609.
A couple of questions, has anyone successfully downloaded the latest OTA? How can I get my tablet to download this new kernel version?
I am worried about this mismatch between tango core and OTA since last time it rendered the tango basically unusable. This time around things seem to be relatively stable, but I am worried that perhaps there might be performance degradation.
Maybe I have't looked hard enough, but I spent yesterday googling for a bit and found no relevant projects on hacking the DJI Phantom Drone in order to create new coordinating apps. This is besides the app for coordination DJI currently uses for their drone. I'm trying to see if there's a way to communicate with the Drone with a specific protocol in order to accept a set of procedures.
Any help would be awesome,
Thanks.
Great News for you and all us Droneys! DJI has launched their SDK since you asked this question. They released it last November and you can now apply for a license and write your own apps for the Phantom2 Vision+ using their SDK.
Check it out at https://developer.dji.com/
I am already building a project using the SDK - you can follow my progress on my blog / product site. I will also try to update it with good DJI related development links and tips.
This post is old but I think it is good to leave a foot print for others :)
There is this new company called NVdrones, which created a peace of hardware that you can attach to any drone (you need physical access to the flight controller), and once you do that you can use their SDK (Arduino, Java, Android and Javascript) to write your app without the need of hacking, soldering or anything else. It is just plug and play.
Another benefit is that you are not locked with a specific drone (DJI SDK or 3DRobotics SDK), you can use the board on anything you want. Which gives lots of flexibility.
The developer site is http://developers.NVdrones.com
Hope this helps.
This is a great topic!
You could check how to hack your copter here: https://github.com/flyver/Flyver-SDK/wiki/-2.2--How-To:-Flyver-Hack-a-Copter
By opening the drone, taking out the original controller, soldering a few wires and sticking an Android phone to it, you will have the ability to program your Phantom in a modern manner with an open source SDK and application based development. This means that you could add computer vision to it, automation or additional hardware. You could also use smartphones, web and other interactive devices for remote controlling the copter instead of using the standard remote controls.
The Phantom, however, is offcenter balanced due to the fact that most people use gimbal with it. Without the gimbal is a lot less stable from my experiments so you will have to put some extra work in center balancing it.
Do ICS in Lazarus is installed and works fine on all platforms?
I read somewhere that there is a problem with Linux. Is this problem solved?
I ported ICS to Free Pascal in the 2005 timeframe, but I never maintained it, because I needed SSL which was back then still a payed option. The backwards compatibility all the way to Delphi v1 was also very frustrating.
At the time I mostly worked on console level (since my target was a server), but the last attempts showed designtime components could be made to work too.
Current status is unknown, but at the time Francois merged back most fixes. That's 7 years ago though. My guess is a died in the wool porter could do it in a couple of days. FPC is more compatible than ever.
I kept a small notes page at http://www.stack.nl/~marcov/ics.html
I suggest to try Indy Components from the Indy project.
They work well under Linux, Windowd and FreeBSD.
Xcode 4.0.1 was released a few days ago, which means that I am once again downloading the 4.5 GB beast to update. Does anyone know if Apple plans to introduce a better update system?
I wait for a torrent these days. Not quite as frustrating as getting it 80% of the way downloaded and losing connection.
If you are registered apple user then u can download directly from apple site,otherwise you need to get it from torrent. like www.thepiratebay.org etc
Since 4.3 the whole Xcode toolchain is bundled into a single Mac App Store application. The Mac App Store supports delta updates and the update to 4.3.1 that I’m downloading right now is ~900M, compared to ~1.5G for the whole app. So it looks like the update sizes are finally coming down, if slowly.
I don't use a mac much so my exposure is minimal but can I safely presume that IE on the Mac is dead?
I know that Microsoft isn't developing it any further and that Firefox, Safari (Opera and Camino) all run on Mac (and from my stats they are most used, in that order)...
So the question is: Is it dead? and if so, when did it die?
I still see CSS templates with Mac IE hacks in place... but I'm thinking it is time to strip the dead weight. Am I right?
PS For anyone hosting a large commercial site, I'd be interested in the % of customers using Mac IE. (Customers being users that actually buy something, not just web developers ping'ing amazon.com to see what it looks like)
It's dead. I just pulled up this months report and found 9 hits out of 3.5 million (about 0.0000257%).
If you need a time-of-death, I would say it was in 2006 when Microsoft released a statement urging users to "migrate to more recent web browsing technologies such as Apple's Safari."
Yes. Praise the lord.

The highest version of Mac IE shipped was 5.2.3.

I would consider IE on the Mac as dead.
As a long year Mac user, I think nobody really uses this browser often.
According to this statistics http://www.upsdell.com/BrowserNews/stat.htm the usage percentage is under 0.3%.
I used to work for a large commercial site just over a year ago, and IE5.5 on a Mac usage was below 0.5% - and that was in an organisation where many of the internal users used that browser (the main reason we had to support it)
I would say, unless the demographic you are targeting are especially likely to be using it, I really wouldn't bother.
I'm seeing 0.22% usage of IE on mac. So, I'd consider it dead too. I'm also only seeing .23% on Opera.
22 hits on a monthly visits count of 10,025.
I really liked Mac IE back in the day, and still consider it one of the best browsers for old-school modem surfers and that it contains features still not replicated elsewhere.
Still, by the time Safari 2 came out Mac IE was way too long in the tooth, never updated and didn't match the slowly-evolving Aqua look and feel anymore. The last few faithful users gave up on it.
It died around the time os x came out. I havnt seen it been used in years and i would say its safe to assume its not being used any more. I dont think it got ported to be a native os x app and the newer os x versions cant run non native apps.
