Downloading the files¶

The first step in the installation process is to download the update file to the device.

There are several ways to do that, either by:

• Downloading the update directly on device.
• Downloading the update on a computer and copying it to the device.

Downloading and/or Copying the files to the device¶

Putting the update file on the device can be done trough different ways, either by:

Make sure the device reboots to recovery¶

Do not wipe the data, do not do a factory reset¶

When updating to a new minor release (e.g. from Replicant 6.0 0001 to Replicant 6.0 0002), a data wipe is usually not required, so it is strongly advised not to wipe the data as all the application settings and data would be gone.

Installing the update¶

Now that the images are on the device it is time to actually install the images to the device.

Downloading the image directly on the device¶

1. Select Apply update
2. Select Choose from emulated
3. Select the update file, which looks like that: replicant-6.0-<yourdevice>.zip
The file will usually be located in 0/Download, so select 0, then Download, then the file.
4. Confirm the installation
5. Press the back key (if necessary) to get back to the general menu
6. Select Reboot system now to reboot the device
7. Your device should now be updated!
