Oticon Intent - Firmware 1.3.0

@WhiteHat said:

No idea if either ultra or the firmware update for sphere will be available. I’m guessing it was too close a turn to get it on the VA contract.

Doesn’t the VA renew contracts in May & November? Probable that they’ll wait until May, from past experience.

I intend to find out this coming Monday.

You mean you ÏNTENT”to find out!!

It’ll be interesting to learn your audi’s take on the Phonaks.

My Philips 9050 updated this morning. Firmware 1.3.0

So they get the same update as Oticon did?

They always move in step. Exactly the same? Who knows.

in genie 2 try to update connect clip as well? if possible.

Clear all pairings from the connect clip. You can follow the following instructions

How to pair aids to connect clip

Oticon suggested pressing all three buttons and holding them…the light will turn white, then red. Then place the aids in the charger and turn the connect clip on and take the aids out of the charger. The connect clip will pulse yellow looking for the aids and then green when it finds them. Then they suggested to forget the pairing on the phone and re pair it through bluetooth. Once repaired they suggested to turn on the remote microphone (hold large button till the light turns pink). If the remote mic works with no problem and keeps the connection it rules out the connect clip being the problems and then we could assume its an aid problem. If the aids are connected to the phone and the connect clip is the two will fight and usually the aids will win so there is a known struggle but we can start by seeing if the connect clip is working

Yes this works

I removed pair in genie and it works

Play store is showing me that the companion app is 1.5.2 not updated since April.

Ok. I see. I was checking on my Chromebook and it shows a release date of Sept 5, so I thought it was a more current release (but it is 1.5.2). When I check on my pixel phone, it shows the same date as your screen print. The weird part is that the Hearlink 2 app for 1.52 mentions the ability to connect to and adjust Auracast broadcast as a feature of 1.52, which was what made me think it was a new release when I looked on my Chromebook and saw the September date. I guess that was a mistake in the description. Do you have the hearing aids, and an Android 16 phone and have you updated to firmware 1.30? If so have you tried joining a broadcast with the hearing aid tile in Android 16 (based on what I understand, you shouldnt need the auracast Assistant in the Oticon Companion app, as an Auracast Assistant is built into Android 16.

Yes, yes, and no. I have an appointment soon, and I will ask for the firmware update. Will check after the update.

Yes you can DIY, you’ll need the Noahlink wireless programming device and the software, otherwise just let Audiologist clinic do it for you.

I tried to update Genie 2 tonight but it told me no updates are available. I even tried logging in as an Admin. I’m still on 2025.1.

Yeah genie does this, just keep trying, shut down your PC (not a reboot but a complete shut down) restart and open genie, also open the genie updater and force genie to check.

In the past I’ve had to go to:

And manually force the Updater app.
