It appears there are some people who have installed it and havent had any problems but this is a post from Jarred on FB.

"Jarred Land Release build doesn't mean bug free. There will always be bugs, forever, in any release beta or alpha or release of any product that has millions of lines of code in it. Not just with us, but with any company. Software is never perfect. You squash bugs and then add new features and more bugs come with it. Remember we just added the expanded voltage support in the last few builds. We do have a release candidate being prepared that should address this bug. That is where we did fuck up.... 7.1.1 should of had one more step as as a release candidate after that post-beta fix."

"well it's not in beta anymore. you do the math." Not really sure why that was warranted.... And since it's been pulled and Jarred has stated they will be releasing a 7.1.1 I guess that math doesn't seem so cut and dry after all. The great thing about modesty is less accountability and a larger forgivable margin for error...

I installed the 7.1.0 and it works just fine on my S-W. I think it was pulled because of some battery/power compatibility issue.

Yeh it was failing to boot my RED Scarlet-W using my V-Lock batteries the new firmware fixes this.
