"The software on this device is outdated..."

When I did the reinstall I ended up with 8.1.1 - so I don't know how I'd find 8.2, but I've been using 8.1.1 for months, it's always worked fine and just now stopped working... Why?
You mention setup -- not sure what you're referring to. This didn't occur during setup, just when I opened the app - setup was completed long ago. And... I just spent some money to upgrade this tablet, so I'm not anxious to toss it and find another controller platform. (No, I don't have another that I can use - long story). The circumstances suggest that this is a technical glitch, not a compatibility issue, so I'd prefer to stick with 8.1.1 and figure out what the issue is...

Thanks!

But do you have any devices you can use to see if another device will properly update your system. Your android will not run the full setup on the current Sonos version. Do you have a laptop or desktop that you can install 8.2 on and get your speakers up to date. After that device updates the speakers your version on your android should work.

Yes, that I can do. "Speakers up to date"... is this a firmware update for the speakers? (Play-3). I'll try this and see what happens.

Yes it will update speaker firmware.

OK, that did the trick. Upgraded the controller on the PC to 8.2, and in the process it also upgraded the tablet version to 8.2 as well. So... your previous statement "The android tablet you have will still work controlling wise it just can't do any of the setup options under 8.2." --- would like to know what these setup options are, but if I don't need to do those from the tablet (rather than the PC), then it's probably not an issue.

Many thanks for the help.

On your android tablet if you go to Sonos settings you will most likely see a lot of options grayed out such as adding new players etc. nothing daily use wise but if you have to modify system your going to need to go to the pc.

Hi, my PC Controller is version 8.3.1. Given the disastrous news about the CR100 I've pulled out a couple of old Samsung Tab2s (GT-P5110) which run Android 4.2.2.

On the tablets, trying to run Sonos I get the message, "The software on this device is outdated ..... " Is there a workaround for this or am being politely told to p**s off and buy a new tablet?

4.3 is required. If tablet newer then about 2011 you should be able to update it to 4.3.

Thank you Chris, appreciate your reply but when i check for updates it tells me that "The latest updates have been installed" even though the kernel version is dated Aug 2014. It seems my best option is to buy an Amazon Fire 7.
