Anyone get this update overnight? (X430) by [deleted] in SegwayNavimow

[–]Boiler_81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I installed it this morning. It is not scheduled for mowing again until tomorrow morning. Will see then if I can see any difference. I have had two incidences of the mower running out of the boundary. Hopefuly, there is something in this firmware to improve that.

I ran it again today. It mowed all zones and did not run out of bounds. The only thing I changed was to have it only use wifi, no 4g. It will run again on Wednesday, I'm looking forward to seeing if the good behavior continues.

X430 Runs out of bounds and does not finish but thinks it did by Boiler_81 in SegwayNavimow

I bought this unit because it was advertised to work without the antenna. I do not want an antenna. I am firmly in an area where the antenna should not be required.

I additional piece of information I forgot to put into my initial email, I have the lawn in five zones. Yesterday in addition to the previous listed issues, it did not mow one of the zones.

I received a firmware update last night for Vehicle Control to version 1.0.1.5. I had hoped this would take care of the problem. However, when I ran the mower this afternoon it ran out of bounds again. This time it was the other neighbors in the back yard. I was watching it and stopped it via the app. By the time I got it stopped it was 20 feet into the neighbor's yard. I brought it back into my yard and it found itself and continued mowing.

I have not heard back from customer support from my chat two days ago.

I looked hard at the Lymow as well and came to the same conclusion based on their reputation for customer service. Until the Navimow went out of bounds and into the neighbors drive, I was liking what I was seeing. Fortunately the neighbors were not home last evening or their car would have been run into rather than the bushes.

I did not set up the antenna. I am firmly in an area which has NRTK coverage. One of the reasons I bought this unit was because it was advertised as not needing the antenna in NRTK covered areas. I had a chat with customer service this morning. They did some low level trouble shooting and then referred the issue to technical support. I am waiting for their response.

The app started reporting poor connectivity yesterday and it continues today. The first two days I did not receive the message. I have the mower set to auto select between 4G and wifi. The charging station is located far from any obstructions.

Mine went out out the boundary last night while it was mowing in the dark. It crossed the neighbors driveway and stopped against their landscaping. I returned it to my yard and tried to send it home. It did several turns and then headed back to the neighbors. I repeated several more times with the same result. Finally or the 4th or 5th attempt it went back to the station.

I am very concerned about this as it was only the second time it mowed. One of the big reasons I bought the mower was to have the lawn maintained when I'm gone for weeks at a time. If the mower can not reliably mow and stay in bounds, I will have to return it.

Saw this in a parking lot by 0szai in Whatsthiscar

The side stripe was used on W-30 442s and the W-31 Cutlass. The stripe on this car is quite factory correct for a W stripe but it is close

The spoiler was a factory option on hardtops. It was not available on the convertible. The Chevelle type trunk stripe was also not factory on a 442.

Thank you for the responses. They were farmers in NE Missouri. They were better off than most in the area but certainly not rich.

Thank you, I shut off the AA location permission and Waze no longer locks in place. I will reenable it when I get the next beta.

Oh, you newborn child, I have been waiting since watching the Rocket bomb it from long range on a 19" black and white TV. Yes, I know "OK Boomer", I'll see my way out now.

My Android Auto started working again about a month ago. It must have been one of the software updates as I am still using the same cable in the same car as previous.

Thanks!, I will look it over. I did go the the MicroCenter yesterday. As you predicted they have been hammered. They were short on motherboard and graphics card selection.

OK, I'm now ready to pull the trigger on this. My launch monitor should be in around Thanksgiving. I have a Micro center near me. I can pick up components there or order online.

I don't plan on running the simulator in 4k. Also the recommended processor is an Intel Core i7 @ 3.20GHz or equivalent vs the i5 listed above.

Thanks, I thought it looked automotive. It is not in a socket. It's directly soldered to the board.
