Well, HiFive has been repaired. Firmware 15.3 is available for download again.
The bug was between the two different bluetooth modules from the two versions between 3.1 and 3.0. The differences are minor, and not many can recognize them. But there is a strangeness with the bluetooth communication that we discovered today
The great thing about the 15.3 binary is the file size. It's 22,200... So as the chinese say, good things come in 2's
... Let's hope this is the one! I think you'll be very happy with this new firmware.
If you had been a victim of the buggy 15.3, it'll be a bit of trouble. You'll need to recycle the power quickly once to receive a pulsating LED, rather than the steady LED.
downloaded and updating firmware
fingers crossed this fixes my mp3 trigger preoblem
YaaaaHooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! I finally got "High Five " update to my ARC!!!!!!!!! Looks Like I'm ready to go. I will be trying out all the new features today. THANKS DJ!
@ DJ. New problem. I plugged in my older board and got the firmware update message. That board is on COM 3 (and COM8) when the update window opens it shows COM 31 instead of COM3. I tried highlighting it to correct the COM number and it won't let me do it. How do I change the COM port number in the update window? Thanks

I was impressed with you before. But, even more after. The way you had the confidence to say I am going to fix this Today!
Amazing!
I hate to rain on your parade. But, I still have to use to trick to connect. My board connects up about every 5 to 20 times randomly.
Really Sorry to give you that news. You must've had more than two types of bluetooth adapters.
Thank You for all your hard work.

Thank u everyone
Lloyd that's a know bug with windows. You'll need to delete the eZb from your Bluetooth devices. Reboot the computer and re add the eZb.
It's frustrating but windows can sometimes be a jerk
D.J., I think the answer for me is going to have to get the software loaded and ready to connect and then power up and connect imediately. I have a much better sucess rate that way. If I wait 30-60 secs, the white light starts pulsing and it does not connect. But, if I connect right when I turn on the power it seems to work. So, I guess this is working.
Thanks again for all of your help. You are a Gentleman and a Scholar and you have earned my Respect.

@MovieMaker is that with the buggy 15.3 or the latest 15.3?
It is with the Latest. But, I can work around it, I guess.
