Since I'm using a modified HR10-250 not currently connected to the phone line, what precautions should I take regarding the 6.3 upgrade? Also, besides folders and faster menus, do we know what 6.3 gives us?

I was going to ask this question also. What happens if the zippered HD-Tivo does a call in?

I don't think the 6.3 would give us anything other than folders and faster menu's like 6.1 and 6.2 gave us.

Zippered units all have upgradesoftware=false built into them
what will happen is, the software will download to your unit, but won't be installed.

So, I assume this would be an easy thing to change? Don't know the in's and outs like you do of what it all means. I realize that when the upgrade comes I would most likely need to re-zipper to get updated functionality.

I'd advise following Cheer's upgrade via slices method. software update and hack from BASH prompt.

What? Is there new software coming out? If so can someone provide the source of the rumor?

Not a rumor, it's real.

Where is this new software coming from? DirecTV? Or is this another one of the fantastic jobs we do in here as well as the other place.
