I ran the update to the current firmware on the VL last night and now it won’t come back online. Flashing blue lights then eventually all lights blink and loop like that again.
sounds like a infinite loop. potentially a connection via WinSCP is possible and if you get the /var/log/luaUPNP.log file you may see the culprit. For me it happened so many times and costed me 2 days ! . it was 2 potential things
a) scene which were scheduled to run every x minutes
b) plugin which was creating child device with incorrect parameters
in either case I had to press the reset button & hold it pressed for 20 seconds, then release it. when you release the blue light should blink and that indicates the reset is taken into account. It rarely worked, had to try this 20 times but eventually it worked. this reseted the unit to factory config for UI7 ( no devices ) and I could then reload the box to UI5 firmware & reload a backup… OR I also could load a UI5 backup ( in which I had before removed any offending scene ) directly in UI7
hope this helps
I can’t even access the device at all. Blue light continuous blink. Can’t ping it or anything.
According to the FAQ I tap the reset button twice, blue light went off then hold the button for 10 second but nothing happens.
Tried your method, pull the plug and plug in, press and hold for 20 seconds. all lights flashes then off and only the orange (ready) rapidly blink forever now.
Should I leave it and walk away?

I also had the orange one sometime, when that happened I unplugged it from power, re plugged, waited until I got the blue and green light and retried the reset button pressed for the 15 20 sec… Until it worked…
I never got the blue and green light, only blue light. Maybe I’m in deeper shit than you were. >:(
I had to do the veralite firmware flash deal to get the unit back online. However I’m down to UI5.
Couple question. All the craps that I’ve been experiencing, is it UI7 or is it just Vera?
Would it help if I stayed in UI 5 or 6 and not go to 7? I do have a backup of my config, can I use that to restore in UI5 despite it was from a Ui7?

If it was stable before… i’d go back to U15. I think they are making progress on 17, but seems to be a tough go for many.
