So when will a newer firmware be released?

@Douglas-Kryder - I don't have connection problem. I have an Omega2+ that doesn't stop blinking after boot is complete. It's a known flaw in the first Omega2+'s.

When I saw the recent de-bricking guides in the 2-bullet Tuesday e-mails I was inspired to return to my bricked Omega2+.
This time I managed to de-brick it. Updated to latest firmware, but the amber led still blinks all the time after boot. So there's still no solution to that?

Yes I saw about the max 2m range, but for some things I don't need more than that.

They posted some instructables as example of what can be made:

A cool IGG project : https://igg.me/at/tinylidar/x/4042493

I think I'll back it and try one with Omega 2+ and Arduino Dock 2.

@luz

Thanks for the howto!

Very cool! So I'm planning to order some SK6812 for a small project. But it would be first time for me building and installing a kernel driver on Omega2. Could you make a small howto guide?

Thanks to both, I wil try with a wire.

@György-Farkas - by pressing the reset button duriing boot you can access a menu and choose to flash the Omega 2+ from USB even when it is bricked as I understand it.

Hmm maybe so. But I need to do factory reset by holding the reset button on booting, and doesn't seem to work.
I saw in som ethread here someone mentioned that the reset button of the original mini dock doesn't work when trying to do that.

I read on here a couple of weeks ago that apparently the original mini dock doesn't work fully with
the Omega 2+ (reset button). When will a newer mini dock be available on the Onion store?
