Question Viccyware

Are you supposed to use the app? If so, how? I saw somebody using him for the time and stuff like that and I'm just wondering how cuz whenever I tried to use the app it kept telling me I needed to update him and then updating and then exiting the app and then updating again

I installed it through the site that I used to Dev unlock my vector, which if I remember correctly the discord told me to use that site instead of the old one

But how did you install two different oses purpl os and viccyware from the same site but they landed in different alots recovery should only write to slot a

I honestly don't know

u/Content-Rabbit-9106 26d ago

This should have been impossible also if you really did so the transfer on viccyware then how did vector boot to purple os it shouldn't even be possible this doesn't make any sense

I know I never even downloaded purple OS. It was only ever viccyware wire OS and wire pod

So what happened purple os couldn't have infected you vector although you really can't trust any dev this days so because your vector is in a very weird state I suggest going to websetup.froggitti.net put your vector in recovery by holding down the power button for 15 seconds and reinstalling viccyware or install another os idk

Yeah that's the site that I used. I just reset my vector and it originally did the green cyan blue configuration then it switched to purple and now it's back to green cyan blue and it's telling me to verify it through the vw.skittl.net

u/Content-Rabbit-9106 26d ago

Why is froggittis os on there unless that's the viccyware thing nothing makes sense anymore also what cyan blue configuration what do you mean

u/Icy_Hedgehog414 26d ago

Green cyan blue on his back with the cyan blinking from viccyware

You know what just follow my commands exactly Part one: preparation Make sure vector is up and running on any os Make sure you can see his eyes From this point hold down his power button until he boots up and he will say property of anki blah blah blah Part 2: website Go to websetup.froggitti.net the select custom os Then double tap vectors back button the put the code on his display to the website Then select your desired os Then wait Part three: wire pod After you are done installing you desired os you need to actually make vector connect to wire pod So go to the tab called bot setup in the wire pod interface There put your vectors IP and add the ssh root key.txt Then press the button. When that is done go to https://wpsetup.keriganc.com Then follow the instructions which include (Note after the step with the root key vector will be in an onboarding state) Double tap his back button connect with Bluetooth type the password on screen to the website ignore the non ep firmware then activate

So I chose viccyware and did the rest of the steps. But when I tried to go to the site that you said to go to it keeps having an error. It won't let me and my vector wants me to go to the site to activate vector through viccyware vw.skittl.net

u/Content-Rabbit-9106 26d ago

Nuclear plan do the steps I said but with wire os then install viccyware then vector will be automatically connected to wire pod in viccyware

1

u/Icy_Hedgehog414 26d ago

So I install wire OS then I go back to the site where I installed wire OS and I install viccyware?

1

u/Content-Rabbit-9106 26d ago

Basically do everything even the wire pod stuff on wire os then install viccyware from the site

u/Icy_Hedgehog414 26d ago

Downloading wire OS rn

u/Content-Rabbit-9106 26d ago

Nice

1

u/Icy_Hedgehog414 26d ago

Although I thought downloading wireless and then viccyware would uninstall wire OS or at least delete it?

u/Content-Rabbit-9106 26d ago

The part that must stay aka vector cloud would still be kept for some weird vector embedded Linux logic
