The wiki said the Aura 2v1s had a "i.MX507"s in them. That might be true for some models, but that's not what I've got.

I have an i.MX6. Specifically a MCIMX6L7DVN10AB. So, the wiki device page needs to be updated.

The "7th digit of your serial number" in my case is indeed a 2. The problem here is the mis-statement. Further the serial number may be in hex, or otherwise definitely includes hex a-f characters, so the use of the term "digit" is specific and wrong in either case. Words have meaning and in this case they are not correct. I just got unlucky.

It seems like I have mark 6 device. Both geek's firmware site and the wiki fell short in being accurate.
