No its cool I was hoping you would think of something I missed. Fresh batteries yes. The flex strip gold connectors were oxidized I even tried cleaning them with eraser softly. I think new cables the answer not ones that had bends in them. Unless I missed something.

Also the flexstrips need to be straight in. Not off to one side or the other side.

ETA: The reason for fresh batteries it to not fail during a firmware upgrade and brick the hearing aids, otherwise any batteries with juice left will do.

I can’t think of anything else. Glue gun glue not a good sign???

Oh, if it was a flexstrip problem then Both flexstrips would need to be failing because both sides fail to Detect. Oh, oxidized flexstrips also not a good sign???

I am fine he prolly did not notice the ones he sent. Thats why I am glad he sending new ones, they will be here Monday. Things happen I am good. If Genie is detecting the expresslink then its good.

Hello…I’m new to the forum and enjoy reading the posts. It’s refreshing to know there are excellent people on this forum who truly understand and give their time to support others. I’m looking for the proper Genie programming software that will assist me with my Oticon More 1 R. Could someone help with a download link, which would be the Genie 2 software. I’ve already order the Noahlink. Thanks in advance!

In-situ crashed again while using it after Genie updated. I think it crashes when I try to use anything in Genie 2 before I use in-situ, not 100 positive, but pretty sure. I found if I go to in-situ first before anything else then Genie 2 does not crash or at least has not yet.

I’ve started the reading process. I was able to upload the Genie 2. I thought I read on the Noahlink that compatibility with a Oticon More 1 R may be an issue because of the “rechargeable” battery. I’ll figure it out as I go. Many of the posts I have been reading are yours and pvc. You both are definitely the major contributors for . Grateful that you are there.

Wow that’s really strange, I can’t imagine what this “bug” is actually doing, but as least you’re found a work around for now.

Is there a bug report/log in genie? you may be able to find something there.

No issue that I know of with Oticon More 1 R, except that it requires a step-by-step procedure to replace the rechargeable batteries which includes resetting the battery statistics.

Updated School PDF File named (Buying Rechargeable Hearing Aids) to include the caveat;

"Hearing aid manufacturers are currently offsetting the cost of fixing these non-replaceable batteries by allowing free factory repair under warranty. Though, be careful when buying used rechargeable hearing aids without a warranty as you will be on you own!!".

Can’t you just open the hearing aid and put in a new rechargeable battery by removing the pins?

Here’s a snip from School (Buying Rechargeable Hearing Aids)

Demant/Oticon used rechargeable may be okay if you have a source for fresh rechargeable batteries. Here’s some links to detailed forum discussion for reference:
