Firmware Version vs System Version
If you're feeling a bit confused over why there are two lots of version numbers above, that's ok… all will be revealed! Basically what you have is a version number in a MAJOR.MINOR.REVISION form (sometimes referred to as Semantic Versioning), which is the user friendly version number. Then you have another simpler version number which was meant to simply increment each time the firmware was updated (and had one or two skips along the way…). That second integer number isn't usually of much interest to us, as its more used by the firmware itself to check to see if there is a newer version. However, since the Oak currently does not upgrade its Safe mode firmware, to see if the Oak has an old safe mode firmware, we usually look at version number shown at the bottom of the page when using the Oak Wifi Config app (aka SoftAP).
Detailed History
1.0.5
- Fixes issue with Particle cloud that resulted in Oak constantly reporting itself to be online and offline, and refusing to accept new code. Issue related to unused system OTA code, which has been disabled for now.
- System Version 5 (although may be displayed as 10 in some places)
1.0.4
- Unstable release
1.0.3
- Unstable release
1.0.2
- Introduction of OakTerm - the internet connected version of the Arduino Serial Monitor. This release was unstable for some people so was pulled offline to be replaced by 1.0.5 which was first stable release to support OakTerm.
1.0.1
- Introduced Manual Config mode, meaning the Oak would only reboot into safe mode when a jumper was connected between P1 and GND, or when there was unstable code. It will no longer automatically go into safe mode if the connection the Particle cloud is lost.
