As usual with the USPS with me it’s a no show. Oh well, there’s always next week.
Your tracking still shows "by 9pm". Maybe it will show up in the middle of the night like it did for AuggieActually. Don't shoot the postman if he is delivering your package at 2am.

I doubt it. I’m on the fringe of my zip code, they apparently dread coming out here. What sucks is the post office closest to me isn’t for my zip code, so we’re the red headed step child as far as that post office is concerned.

And forget trying to file a claim with them. You have to go through this one lady and her response is always “just have the seller send you another one”.

USPS not much better up here. Tracking shows "Delivered In/At Mailbox" only for me to get a pink notice in the mailbox two days later that I have to pick the package up at the post office. 🤦‍♂️

In my experience, USPS has been very good for shipping to customers. I can only remember two issues since BTT started, but they still got it there. Normally, they are very fast. 2-3 days delivery time is very common. I could add more carrier options. I assumed that most people preferred USPS.

Just received mine and in process of setting up. Pre loaded WIO terminal firmware and thought I got firmware 11-14-05 loaded via teensy, but it just shows Blue Tail MicroP25RX on screen and can't access any settings with the button to check config. Was the latest firmware already loaded when you shipped? Quite confident user error at this early stage!

Yes, the 11-14-05 firmware was shipped. The Wio Terminal needs the 11-14-02 firmware loaded. If you haven't already tried it, press the power/reset button down (spring loaded) on the Wio to reset the display. Sometimes after a firmware update, this is needed to get communications to the display going.

Story of my life. One of the first to order and will be one of the last to receive.

WIO update shows new firmware UF2 being copied to device but when single press down it just comes up with the Blue Tail name on top and can't open anything else. When I enter bootload mode I don't see the new update in the Arduino. Doing this on a Mac.

Do you see an orange led on the Teensy board? That led indicates that it is sending data to the display.

No, it just shows the Auto button lit green and the current firmware on the bottom. I currently have the Micro on one usb and the Wio on another trying to copy the firmware again.

If you don't see the orange led lit next to the "program" button, then no data is being sent to the display. When you press the program button on the Teensy, you should see a red led next to the USB connector. After that, the "AUTO" mode in the loader software should detect the board and upload the firmware. I believe you should be able to follow the same instructions as for Windows. There is a firmware update document that @goldmyne99 wrote up located on the firmware page. I will do some searching to see if there are any Mac-related issues to firmware updates.

Well I unplugged unit after reattaching the Wio and for a brief moment I got a display of a frequency screen but couldn't enter any modes. Reset down button and came up like this again.

Now I get this screen but can't activate joystick button to check configuration. Apparently its a Teensy issue then since I am not getting any confirmation light but shows this on bottom.

Looks like you must have the correct firmware loaded. You would have to remove the cover to see the orange led I'm referring to. It is next to the physical program button on the Teensy board (under the cover). It appears that you have the correct firmware loaded since you are seeing a display. Just checking, but did you press in on the joystick button to bring up the mode menu? It is a 5-way button. left, right, up, down, and pressed-in.

Sorry thought you were talking about the desktop Teensy loader light. I pressed program button now and red led is staying on with no orange light.

The red led indicates that it is in "bootloader mode" and ready to accept new firmware. If you still have the TeensyLoader software running in AUTO mode, it should transfer the firmware. As goldmyne99 pointed out, you shouldn't need to do this until new firmware is released. You can power-cycle the device to abort the firmware load. Do you see an orange led after power-cycle?

Think I figured it out, like you both warned about previously it was the Micro USB cable that apparently was not data ready. Thought for sure it would be as this was the one I program my Unication with. Thanks for the suggestions, like I said user error.

SD Card INIT Failed when I use the zip code search. Do I press anything under SD Card to so it can be read?
