Hi @stefanbode

I'm using your firmware for a very long time, but I'd like to upgrade to the main tasmota now after you migrated your great work in there.
Can you please advise abour upgrading method from Sonoff-Tasmota 6.5.0.11 stb-1.5 ?

tnx!

Yes, please export your settings first. Then follow the upgrade procedure for like you have normal tasmota 6.5 version. There are some updates with the -minimal version required until you can go to version 10.

well... that didn't go well....
I upgraded to 6.7.1 then the switch became unavailable, not responsive to touch also... I believe I'll have to flash the firmware again....

So I flashed from scratch, but im unable to restore from backup...
any idea?

@stefanbode
OK, I recovered the switch (phew, there were many changes from your fork to the main Tasmota!)
Now it is working nice.

1. One feature is missing and I couldn't find how to config it:
   when the shutters are opening e.g. and I press the Down button it stops. I want the shutters to change direction in that case as it was in your fork.
   How do I do that please?

2. any idea why the upgrade didn't work properly and how I will be able to do it easily for all other modules OTA?

[adizag]

Solved it - I had to command reset 6 before I started the upgrade.
Now everything is great.
tnx.

There a different command for every use case. You can assign buttons to the commands. Take a look into the very long documentation
