While troubleshooting another issue I noticed a few screenshots of Botvacs running 4.6.0_72. I was able to compile this version and add in the updated certificate, valid until 2/10/24. This version is fully compatible with the Neato iOS mobile app. I tried 4.6.1_102 and higher, and those won't register through the mobile app. It's unclear what's different between this version and Neato_4.5.3_189.
Feel free to rehost elsewhere, this was the first option that came up on Google.

Has anybody reposted this?
Sure would like to get the newer firmware as I think it fixes the DST problem.

I do not recommend this firmware.
1. Does not correctly detect doorways. Unlike 4.5.3-xxx, does not clean by room
2. Very poor algorithm for going around the room perimeter, does not go into corners.
3. Does not work correctly with Chinese replica batteries (possibly a problem with my robot). Firmware 4.5.3 works fine.
