Title: Ransomware Virus
Post by: victim on June 14, 2016, 03:04:51 PM
I think my obi has virus.  Today my phone stop working and demand $10 payment to work again.  I know it is only $10 but I am on fixed income and I need phone to refill heart medication.  I won't pay ransom on principle or else the terrorists win.

I'm pretty sure this is a joke.

On the off chance it's not, follow the instructions here to manually update your firmware: http://www.obitalk.com/forum/index.php?topic=11256.msg73954#msg73954

Thank you for clear instruction.  My phone is working again and my medication is on the way.  A giant raspberry to obihai company for treating customers so poorly.  At least they did not put forum behind $10 paywall too.  We would really be screwed.
