    Code:
    init 4 && opkg update && opkg upgrade && init 6
    Method 2) FTP the attached update.pyo to /usr/lib/enigma2/python > Restart GUI > Online update as normal via the GUI, answer yes to the warning question.

    Method 3) Couch flash your receiver via GUI. You will need to have a storage device connected to your receiver, USB or HDD. Blue button > ViX > Image Manager > Press Yellow to download release 5.1.013 or above > Once download press red button to close image selection download screen > Highlight the image you've just downloaded > Press Blue button to flash. Backup of settings is automatically done before the flash commences ready for restore after the flash.

    Method 4) USB flash as normal. Backup your settings first to a storage device. Blue button > ViX > Backup Manager. You'll then be able to restore your settings after the USB flash. Receiver USB flashing guides can be found HERE.
    Method 1 worked a treat for me on my boxes.

    Method #2 worked seamlessly DUO2 (experimental unit) way over here in remote inland Australia.

    Main Home Theatre DUO2 next.

    Impressive engineering.

    Thanks for the detailed instructions. On my Vu+ Solo2 method 1 was still on 5.1.012 after the telent command had run & the box restarted. Went onto method 2 & all seems good. Now showing 5.1.013 in information.

    Yes. The bug is in 5.1 012.

    If not in 5.1 012, lower or higher, you are not affected.

    Can I use image manager to couch flash my mutant hd1500 from 5.0.023 to 5.1.002?

    I understand that 5.1.002 is not the latest version.

    You can flash whichever image you want.

    Image Manager does images
    Backup Manager does settings/plugins.

    Note:
    We don't advertise it too much, but when you flash using image manager, it also starts Backup Manager to create a settings backup. This is default option that can be changed. I can't remember when we added this.
