RAE Updates over WIFI fail / poor wifi operation

JohnP I haven't seen the wheels move yet - so you have me beat.

SeanKMcGinnis Maybe I can help you turn it from a paperweight to pocket warmer! Looked back on your first post and you have the exact problem I did at first. I supposed you clicked update firmware. You will have to reset ssh keys to reconnect. In linux i use "ssh-keygen -R your-hostname". I think its the same in windows powershell. If you manage to connect, copy the fw from link that AkilChien posted to rae. I used v1.12. In rae shell, go to directory of the fw file and type "mender -install luxonis-1.12.dm-verity.mendor; reboot". This should get you back to the point of connecting with Robothub. With the rea default app, you should be able to view camera and see wheels move while getting extreamly hot. If you want it to drive around and not sitting on top of your router, well, I'm still working on that.

James had the same issue with the same app. I gave up after a little over two hours. Ended up resetting to factory. Haven't tried to download that one again.

So far only the Default App works. You have to uninstall that to install any other app. Counter App will lock up Robohub web installer even though your Rae is fine, but still requires you to factory reset your Rae to connect back up with Robohub. No other app works without Robohub Core or something like that that.

and where would I find the instructions for doing a factory reset?

TomMunnecke hold a pin to the reset button -underside of rae next to the power button. Hold for 10 seconds. Maybe a little more. A hard reset [not factory] is an 8 sec hold on the power button

OK, I did the factory reset, scanned the QR code, and got this log trying to start the default app.

TomMunnecke uninstall the default app, then reinstall it. it should work the 2nd time. clicking "default app" should take you to a new window where you can start/stop/uninstall it, below that you can "open front end" or something and that will pop up a web interface that allows you to move it and view forward or backwards.

I did that, got this:

I had the same issue. It's too deep and possibly not even square with the hoke. I had to gently prod around until I felt it click. But its very subtle. I doubt you damaged it. I was pushing pretty hard, I'm an oaf and have factory reset it at least 6 times haha. Try uninstall and reinstall again. Sometimes I has to hit start on the app to get it to go.

Yeah it was definitely not easy to get to the reset. I used an unwound paperclip. I don't want to embarrassed myself with how many trys it took me lol

well at least I found a paperclip that worked a bit better. did another factory reset, and got a little further - a least "local front end" came up with a control screen for colors on the rae for a while, but with "waiting for a stream" to do anything. I tried uninstall/reinstall and lost even that screen. I'm getting an error "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'robothub_core'"
