I have had my FixHub for a couple of weeks, trying to get through its issues. When it works, I am thrilled to have it. But when it doesn't, it's very frustrating. My FixHub was basically hopeless at first. Very erratic and random repeatability of many problems. Then I updated from FW 1.0.3 to 1.1.2. Seems better and most of the random issues are gone.
But one remains. The unit does not turn on reliably. Sometimes it turns on as it should with a 3 sec push of the blue button. Most of the time it does not.
* Sometimes the introductory splash screen will start, then stop and go away.
* Sometimes repeating the attempt a few more times, it may eventually come on.
* Sometimes pushing the blue and silver buttons for ten seconds to reset, then it will power up, but not always.

Sometimes nothing I do will bring it alive, so I just walk away, only to have it work the next day.

This behavior seems to be independent of room temperature (55-70F) and battery status (40-100%).
The FixHub is a very cool concept and I want to love it, but I can't until it works reliably. I was hoping to be able to use it for remote repairs, but the last thing I need is to be on a mountain top in the field and not have the FixHub perform.
I have tried all the advice I can find on your website, but no joy yet. Help please! Thanks!
