It is possible to upgrade IOIO v1 to the latest firmware version (v5.x currently). For the upgrade process you'd need a phone with Android < 4.1 (specific limitation of IOIO v1, which doesn't apply to the IOIO-OTG), and follow the instructions here: https://github.com/ytai/ioio/wiki/The-IOIO-Manager-Application > > My mclr pin`s soldering circle/track is destroyed totally, I cant > soldering pin on it :(.

You only need this pin if you want to upgrade *the bootloader*, which you probably don't need to worry about *unless* you have the ancient (4 years old) bootloader v1.x on it. > > I have tried connect it to pc (linux) as well as to android 4.4, no > success at all :(. > The IOIO v1 (unlike the IOIO-OTG) can only be connected to a PC over Bluetooth. With Android, you can do either USB or Bluetooth. If you're using USB with Android >= 4.2.2, make sure to *disable* USB debugging when connecting the IOIO. Also make sure the trim-pot (screw on the IOIO) is fully clockwise. Do not turn it too hard, you'll break the stopper.
