Known Firmware Issues

Known Firmware Issues​

This page collects the outstanding bugs and regressions that affect the legacy Omega2 firmware stream. Each entry lists the current status plus any workarounds that keep a project on track.

Issue Listing​

  • Cannot flash the Arduino Dock if arduino-dock-2 is installed while the OpenWRT package repos are active.
    Root cause: the OpenWRT feed ships avrdude v6.3, which blocks GPIO access.
    Resolution: keep using the Onion feed avrdude v6.1 release by installing arduino-dock-2 before enabling the OpenWRT feeds or by uninstalling avrdude, disabling the OpenWRT feeds, running opkg update, and reinstalling from the Onion repo. Reboot if the reinstall fails.
  • The Omega cannot successfully connect to the Onion Cloud – Fixed in b149. The Onion Cloud was decommissioned in October 2018.
  • The reset button does not work – Fixed in b146.
  • Omega2+ cannot reboot – Fixed in b142.
  • Omega2+ cannot mount MicroSD cards – Fixed in b143.
  • Cannot successfully register a 1-Wire master in the filesystem – Fixed in b151.
  • The fast-gpio program always crashes – Fixed in b160 after /dev/mem access was restored.
  • WiFi issues:
    – No support for enterprise WiFi that requires a username and password.
    – No automatic support for TKIP-encrypted networks – Fixed in v0.2.0 via the Onion WiFi Warp Core driver.
    – No automatic support for channels 13 and 14 – Fixed in v0.2.0; set the correct country in /etc/config/wireless and run wifi.

Console Issue Listing​

  • Cannot change the account password in the Settings app.
  • Cannot disable the WiFi AP from the UI.
  • The OLED App does not properly save image files to the Omega.
