OBI100 says need firmware update to use GV, but already using latest version
SteveInWA:
The flashing red and green LEDs, and the special firmware upgrade screen you now see, are evidence that your OBi now has a corrupted firmware image loaded on it (for whatever reason).
Log onto the OBiTALK portal, and completely delete your OBi device off of the dashboard. Wait a few minutes.
Unplug the OBi from power and from the Ethernet cable. Using a paper clip, gently depress the recessed reset button on the bottom of the device until you can feel a click. Plug just the power cable into the OBi while continuing to hold in the reset button (requires some dexterity, or get a friend to help). Wait at least 10 seconds, until the power LED starts blinking. Release the reset button. Wait... give it time for the factory reset to attempt completion; Five minutes would be fine. It will likely still show the alternating red/green power LED. Plug the Ethernet cable back in.
As I mentioned above, download a fresh copy of the firmware, and enter the file location on the firmware update page you posted, and click the button to upgrade. Again, be patient and wait.
If this doesn't fix it, then it has a hardware failure that can't be fixed. You'll need to buy a new one.
Looking at amazon.com, it appears that the 100 devices are out of stock, and are currently only being sold by third party sellers. Do not buy from them. Wait until it's available again, directly from Amazon, and not from a third-party.
The 200 devices are in stock, but you need to click the link in "Note: Available at a lower price from other sellers, potentially without free Prime shipping." to see the direct-from-Amazon choice.
Hint: Amazon "Prime Day" is coming up soon, on July 12th. It would be worth waiting to see if an OBi model goes on sale.

Found the solution on another thread for the Obi100.
Download this firmware for the Obi110 http://fw.obihai.com/OBi110-1-3-0-2886.fw
(Yes, I know its for the Obi110 but it will work in the Obi100).
Then Reboot.
If you don't know how to install the firmware:
Dial * * * 1
It will give you the IP Address: 192.168.XXX.XXX (example 192.168.1.27 )
In your browser, enter the IP Address as the URL.
User Name: admin
password: admin
On the left side, navigate to SYSTEM MANAGEMENT
Click DEVICE UPDATE
At the top where it says "Firmware Update
Select file to update firmware [BROWSE] ...."
Click BROWSE and add the file. Then click UPLOAD
Once it reboots its done.
In the obitalk portal, you can delete the old device and add a new device. Its should work with Google Voice using OAuth.
This worked for me so well. Thx for the firmware and instructions
