I'm thrilled that firmware for the Icon is being developed and released. Almost as pleased as I am to talk with others about how the Icon serves my needs. I love this thing.
And I have to look out for the things I love.
There's one issue plaguing every firmware release. The .enc file is not sent with any error or content checking at all. Not encased in a .zip file, not a text field with an MD5 checksum, not even a file size.
The repercussions of pushing damaged or incomplete firmware to a device are costly.
Please, as I have implored with every firmware release in the past, do something to ensure the firmware file is getting to us in good condition. Doing so lies between free and cheap.
For others:
File: IconHD-Net-FW-4.1.enc
CRC-32: 2cacedc2
MD5: df12efb634d362d1a0dd903b5a425449
SHA-1: fa2a7c2b24f8316827ca1f03d134364388dc9999
