I have a Kickstarter Onyx running firmware 12.9, and I understand that later versions are significantly better. I've found upgrade instructions here (http://wizkers.github.io/wizkers-doc/ins/medcom-onyx/) but the files are not available for download.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for finding these so I can upgrade?

Thanks

Bump. Is the Onyx effectively EOL/unsupported?

Hi James!

I am the current maintainer of the latest versions of the Onyx firmware. It is completely supported and not EOL at all :) And you are right, the current firmware (12.30) is much more advanced. Battery life is now excellent, there are a lot more features, etc.

Sorry for the links on the documentation being outdated due to a server migration... What operating system are you using? I can send you links to the correct firmware and update software directly,

Ed
