    I ran the firmware update from the webapp for my 2+. It bricked. I've noticed that my problem is with the kernel.Ive tried with this
    http://community.onion.io/topic/1154/omega-2-usb-firmware-install-after-brick-resolved
    but i cant even get the menu with the reset up.

    Try this way please:

    • power OFF your Omega2+
    • press and hold down the Reset button (the momentary push button between the FW_RST pin and the +3.3V)
    • switch the Omega's power ON
      and after this you should see the UBoot menu on the serial console...

    Good luck!
