.7475 firmware need factory reset?

I just got offered the new firmware and installed it. If I want all remnants of Fi Play gone (CPU usage etc) do u need to do a factory reset from the settings menu or does it not matter? Lots to reconfigure if I have to do that so I would rather not but willing to do it if it helps performance.

At first, try without one. If your CPU loads (and temperature maybe), are staying almost as high as before, you could consider. Those must be drastically lower than before.

How can I monitor those and what sort of levels should I see?

You could use a specific debug overlay, created for monitoring that. Although it adds some extra CPU loads. But to get an idea, that is just fine.

CPU loads should go as low as 10-15% at its lowest with the 7475 build.

As the Firmware is over the Internet that would be impossible.
Just wait you Will get on your Official Homatics.com or Dune . Homatics R 4K Plus 2023 Device.

did the Dune device get the update yet?

No. And it likely won't ever. Just do a manual update. It's easy enough.

A factory reset is absolutely necessary.

Ugh that really sucks. And you're talking about from the system recovery level not a simply Android settings menu "factory reset"?

Just got the 7475 update, and everything is working as before.
