No 6.3b and OTA disabled

[humbland]

Well, after months of daily calls, I never got the 6.3b upgrade.
With the mixed feedback, perhaps it's just as well...
We live in a rural area with no OTA HD, so I don't have the antenna feeds enabled. I've been wondering if their could be a connection to the fact that I never got the upgrade.
On the plus side, the spontaneous reboots have calmed down and there is just an occasional audio dropout.
Is there anyone else out there with no 6.3b and their OTA antenna feeds not enabled?

I know this might be a stupid point to make, but you DO realize that YOU have to enable the OTA feeds in initial setup, right? ;) ;)
Until YOU do this, they will NEVER be enabled, as they are NOT enabled out of the box...

Of course he realizes that. He's not asking how to enable them, he's asking if having them disabled is the reason he hasn't gotten 6.3b.


humbland, AFAIK disabled OTA inputs should have no impact on receiving/not receiving software updates.

Yes, I was aware that I had to enable the OTA feeds in set up. I have a stand alone tivo for OTA SD. The HD Tivo is set up to record HD only (just HD channels turned on).
My thinking was that many of the 6.3a complaints (to DTV) had to do with lousy OTA HD reception and that DTV may have targeted the 6.3b fix to the boxes that are using this feature.
Does anyone have any theories as to why I still haven't got 6.3b?
Is there anyone else out there still without it?

Have OTA enabled and no 6b, been doing daily calls since 6b came out.

I have had OTA enabled and still don't have 6.3b. Stock system, fully registered and plugged into a phone line. I grew tired of daily forced calls and now just let the it call in all by itself.

Thanks for the responses,
Interesting...I wonder what's different about our units...
Is there anyone out there without OTA enabled that DID get the update?

I still have not received 6.3b. They sent me a HR20 and said I could keep my HR10. I did an now have both hooked up. Both work fine but, I still get audio dropouts with HR10.
