monelli,

At this moment, OTA is not compatible with Hibernate mode. Sorry about that, we will develop a solution for that as soon as possible.

This is because of when you remove jumper, Waspmote is powered by a hardware controlled logic. When you send a new program by OTA and try to start it, a reset is done in the microcontroller and the mentioned hardware logic can become unresponsiveness.

So, we recommend you to use deep sleep mode instead of Hibernate.

Best Regards.
