Do a force re-load (CTRL+F5). Does that fix the problem?

no way
really i don't understand
the OS works fine with MPD and Bubble (Android)
but the Dashboard is unusable......even to update

So strange, even I've flashed or reinstalled many times stable/beta version in these years, I never see that problem.

The WebApp requires HTML5 to work. Somehow the browser you're using stopped supporting HTML5, or the WebApp is missing some critical components that broke HTML5.
If a force refresh didn't fix this, try and sideload the latest 1.2.6 and see if that works. If anything updating via sideload will give you a functional/working WebApp. See the instructions on how to do the sideload process here: https://www.snakeoil-os.net/wiki/Advance...l-firmware

Note: Sideload means update via another means.

will try
but both Browsers have the same Dashboard
and it is not exactly easy to navigate and apply the update.....

Yeah. That's a mystery. Likely the WebApp is corrupted somehow.

There are other ways the WebApp can be broken, e.g. when you disable javascript in the browser, and both of your Android and Desktop have this setting synced. There's always possibilities, but can't know for certain without more details.

and it is not exactly easy to navigate and apply the update.....

That's what the sideload is for. No need to navigate through the broken WebApp. Rename the downloaded firmware file and copy it over, reboot the computer and hope for the best.

Solved!!!
i finally managed to install the latest FW (not the Beta)

everything works fine now......

thanks for the support

My turn with the horror dashboard! 

NBN is down and I have had no internet access for a few days.  I can SSH into instance but cannot access the Dashboard via browser.  Using latest firmware.  It seems like it is expecting fonts from an online source and when it does not have access, that horror dashboard appears.

Gee that sucks. I'll see if I can fix that over the next few days.
