*and also there is a new version of Update App released.
It is to solve the issue where some users can't see the new firmware thru the Update app.
This is only an update for the Update Application itself and not a Firmware or an IPTV (MOL) update.
You will see the updating process show 'Check Update v1.1.1' and then it should change to 'Check Update v2.0.0'

That is the Update app version, with v2.0.0 being the new update installed.

You may have to do the update twice in order to get the 2.0.0 version to load.

There has been 2 new updates released. But neither of them is an update for the box itself or the MOL
They are updates for the 'Remote App' and the other is an update direct for the 'BT-100'

These were released September 23
But you will not see them in your normal update menu(s).
Open the Market and scroll down to the Utilities/ETC category and there is where the Formuler Remote app can be found (v1.0.0-r78)
Install that and then you should see it trigger the Bt-100 update.



These 2 updates are for all Formuler receivers across the board and not just the Z8

Version 1.0.0
Applicable models:
Formuler Z8, Z Alpha, Z+ Neo, Z7+, Zx series devices
