A version of Devo 7E does not work!

On my Devo 7E I installed V4.01-92e1705 version because I want to keep the screen display changes (layout). But there is an important bug that makes the TX reboot.
In the mixer menu when I'm in PPM in PPM, I select Main menu, Mixer, I press Down to go to virtual channel 7 then I pushed again Down, then TX reboot. If I put in PPM in DEVO, it's almost the same thing, this reboot the TX to 5 virtual channel and that changes the channel allocation in the mixer. This is very dangerous because the helicopter hand full throttle.
The model uses 4 virtuals channels (3 for the swashplate and 1 for "Sticky trottle Hold").
Does it another version with the Layout and also takes into account the change of the diode and the addition of two switches 3 ways?
Thank-you.

yes that is known.
It is fixed in one of deviationtx team nightly-builds.
The branches / pull requests which fixed it had the name "scrollable".

If I load the last nighty, will it better?

For the most part, the latest nightly builds are much better than that one from.
Do not ask me questions via PM. Ask in the forums, where I'll answer if I can.

Sorry, I do know nothing about "layout". May updates / news on Devo7 custom build thread?
Switches mod is supported on nightly-builds in hardware.ini as I heard it (I do not use them on Devo10).
However I believe there may be problem with the latest code not fitting anymore the Devo7E according to vlad's posting.
I do not understand it 100% if the repository checked in code fits for Devo7E, if the workaround code works to be uploaded or if it needs some more tweaking or what Devo7E features had to be disabled.
It is hard to follow all the different threads and partial news sometimes...

The actual code fits pretty tight the 7e, the problem is can't be compiled using latest GNU Toolchain, you need to have installed an old one version.

It simply does not affect any nightly build of May or June 2015.
So Vlad only got problems in HIS code repository so far, where he also introduced to making smaller improvements / changes to DSMx telemetry for <8CH receivers. He will probably merge the protocol change with Indigos test build anyway.
In V4.1 release candidate thread we already talked about different RC sub candidates (with/without protocol changes).

PB has in mind some future changes at 7e code trying to free up some space, but I guess this is another discussion

Personally I am on devo10-v4.0.1-fcd0669 right now.
If I were you I would just download the latest from here: www.deviationtx.com/downloads-new/category/13-nightly-builds
Please note revision 605829b from 06/06/2015 from Hexfet code fix starts to revert back the old backlight dimmer functionality while in fcd0669 version when I move the sticks (in flight) the backlight stays on - which is just great in my opinion

On your advice I just installed the latest build nighty and magically, all bugs are gone. Also I get the display output virtual channels it is great. And testing of range, but I do not know how to use it! Maybe have you got a link...
In this version, there is a new file (UPDATING.md) should I also put in the TX?
Finally I d'ont need the display changes (layout), as boxes and toggles of the main page config are good places now, before sometimes there were mixed with the characters.
Thank you to each of you.
