Another good reason to not update unless it’s absolutely necessary, did you try 8.1.2 to see if they connect to that version, target is still saying the Lumity is compatible from 8.1 regardless of the firmware, although I’ve come across this issue with Oticon in the past, as in they wouldn’t connect to older versions of Genie once the firmware was updated.
I’ve installed 9.0.1 on my win10 laptop and it’s running ok.

A couple of things I did notice is that the “trial” hearing aids the period has been extended to 8 weeks and plus they have Roger licence permanently installed, so that’s a bonus.

I have both win 10 and 11 running in two different Virtual machines and also win 11 Dual boot. So it is not a problem. I was just passing on my experiences. My main OS in Linux.

Improved Bluetooth stability.

First test today bluetooth seems to be much better :slight_smile: I can now keep my phone in my back pocket and not have the audio cut out, while outside for a walk.

Lumity is not very different from the Paradise version, was there talk about the Paradise update?

I was at my audiologist on Friday for a routine visit.

She told me that my paradise 70’s had a firmware upgrade and installed it. They’re now at 1.1.13.0

It wasn’t available at my last appointment which was 6 month’s ago.

Improvements listed for my L90s are:

  • More reliable charging.
  • More accurate LED behavior.
  • Improved Bluetooth stability.

That is what my audi told me on Friday when I got the firmware update for my Lumity Life aids. I sure hope the stability has improved, cuz I’d been having VERRRRRY erratic streaming issues only when watching TV. No issues at all with laptop or cell phone streaming, but going way back to June, I’d go for days without being able to stream both aids to anything watched on TV (DVD or AppleTV).

LOL about Phonak listing everything twice. My problem is with the EARS, not my EYES. Hey, whatever, just do it. Make it work for us.

Yes, you lucked out, cuz the firmware update was just (finally!) released on MONDAY of last week according to my audi. I’m guessing that Phonak bundles up all these bugs (charging, streaming issues, etc.,) into ONE firmware update so they don’t have weekly update releases.

Um. Not that ANYONE ever tells US about ANY of these UPDATES. Ever! We have to stumble along for a few months with all kinds of odd issues cropping up, then in frustration, call our audi and then - like a miracle! - we’re told, “Phonak has a firmware update out.”

:person_facepalming:

Yes you can, but it’s a project, it’ll be easier for someone who doesn’t have everything needed to just get your audiologist to do it.
