Re: Neato Botvac LIDAR and side brush motor o-ring size.

The red ones are probably silicone.
On my D7 I just removed them and matched up with the same at ACE hardware store.
Worked well.

Re: Need Neato_4.5.3_189.tgz Firmware package

I'm so happy to have zone cleaning back.
Was so close to selling this for parts at $50.

Good save. Now, if I could only find a way to back up this floor plan.

Re: Need Neato_4.5.3_189.tgz Firmware package

Bingo. That sorted it out.

I was overthinking things and extracting the 3 files and putting those onto the drive rather than the zipped file.

Back to the latest a firmware version and I can now set zones again.


Thanks guys.
Hopefully I can pass on advice to another user.

No change there.
Larger USB drive 16Gb

Same process same results.

Still stuck on 4.2.0.102

Either I’m not understanding the process or our cleaner is truly screwed up.

Re: Need Neato_4.5.3_189.tgz Firmware package

Well that didn't work out as expected. 1Gb USB drive formatted FAT32 created a file RobotData and inserted the 3 files from the download. Cleaned the files from the D7 using Toolio as suggested. Attached USB to D7 using OTG cable. Two lights on the D7 alternately light up, I assume downloading. Afte...

Would be interested in this too.
Neato has been of no help, stuck on the original firmware, can't update. Need my room zones back ! Thanks for posting the update procedure. Will give it a go once it's posted.

D7 lost the ability to create zones.

Hi, thank God I have found this site.. Been having issues with my D7 since I upgraded my iphone to 13Pro. One day the cleaner stated that it was lost, recovered it and placed it on it's charging base. After this I could no longer connect it to the wifi, It asked me to go through the reconnection pro...
