Don't worry, all 3 items in the title are related.  Basically I've just updated to the latest firmware (with the alarm clock fix) 7.1.12.31 and I have 3 issues related to this:

  1. The miniserver firmware is 7.1.12.31 however the extensions are all on much older FWs.  Is this normal or should all extensions be on the same as the miniserver firmware too?
  2. The much touted room mode should be available in Loxone App v6.  I have this installed on my Android phone but I cannot see any option to enable room mode.  Is this just an apple or tablet only feature?  Or FW related again?
  3.  The also much touted full screen mode for the web browser version of the control app does not appear to be available currently, (which i thought would be firmware related).  My app version in the browser says it's 5.2.1 (2015.09.30).  Is this right or shoudl I have the latest version?
My firmwares from device status are as follows:

Extension versions seem unrelated to miniserver version - mine are all on 7.0.9.7 (as is my AirBase extension)  DMX extension and miniserver are on 7.1.9.x where x is different for miniserver, DMX and Smart socket

Tablet only for some reason - on iOS I get it on my iPad by not my iPhone.  It would make sense for this to be addressed in a future update as an old iPhone or an iPod touch would make a useful room controller.

Works for me on Windows7/Chrome (including room mode in the browser)   App version shows up as 6.0 (2015/12/17)

Re fullscreen - why is my miniserver on the latest firmware but still pumping out the old browser app?  I've tried clearing browser cache etc so I'll log a ticket with support I think.  I'll report any findings here.

FYI full screen browser app was initiated by a full restart of the miniserver (as suggested by Loxone support), all is now working as expected.

Clearly room mode is only available on tablet apps.
