Pre-releaseDevice OS 1.3.0-alpha.1 [Alpha Pre-Release] binaries for (Core/Photon/P1/Electron/Argon/Boron/Xenon) are available below
released on May 31th, 2019
✅ This 1.3.0-alpha.1 Alpha Pre-Release is for testing purposes only. API's may change before a Release Candidate is created. ✏️ Testing on your applications is encouraged and appreciated, thank you! 🙇
⚠️ Note: This is a Alpha Pre-Release and is not intended for production yet. Limited to no support is available for this Alpha release and is largely for internal testing. It is not available as a build target and will not be available in Workbench. Testing is not for the faint of heart ❤️ but if you want to be on the cutting edge of releases jump in! Downgrading back to the current release info is at the bottom of this post.Note: OTA or YModem transfer on Electron (sequence required)
- First Update to 0.5.5 (if the current version is less than that)
- Then update to 0.6.4 (if the current version is less than that)
- Then update to 0.7.0 (if the current version is less than that)
- Then update to 1.3.0-alpha.1
Note: DFU over USB on Electron/Photon/P1 (sequence not required)
- You may update to 1.3.0-alpha.1 directly first, flash the system firmware (attached above) in order 1,2(,3) to the device using
particle flash --usb <system-part.bin>
. See the next note about the bootloader if you are offline!Note: P1/Photon Bootloader
The Cloud will automatically update the bootloader on P1/Photon devices if your device is online. If your device does not connect to the cloud and it is offline, you should flash the bootloader to the device usingparticle flash --serial <bootloader.bin>
. This should be done after upgrading system firmware. The Electron bootloader is applied automatically from it's own system parts.Note: Downgrading [Electron/Photon/P1] OTA or YModem transfer:
If you need to downgrade, you must downgrade to 0.7.0 and then 0.6.3(Photon/P1), 0.6.4(Electron) to ensure that the bootloader downgrades automatically. When downgrading to older versions, downgrade to 0.7.0 first, then 0.6.3(Photon/P1), 0.6.4(Electron), then to an older version such as 0.5.5.
1.3.0-alpha.1
Note: If your Gen 3 device does not have a Cloud connection, it is recommended to update system firmware, and then the bootloader via CLI with
particle flash --serial bootloader.bin
(bootloaders found in Github release)This release contains v311 bootloaders.
