[Request] Go 6 firmware link.

[ronnie2024]

Thanks. I am a newbie, so I will carefully do that. Could You please share me the recovery file of it. And do I need to root before doing autoupdate?

[Renate]

@ronnie2024

I sent you a link to the recovery in PM. You can rename it rec.img

If you are already rooted you can simply:

C:\>adb push rec.img sdcard
C:\>adb shell
$ su
# dd if=/sdcard/rec.img of=/dev/block/by-name/recovery_a
# dd if=/sdcard/rec.img of=/dev/block/by-name/recovery_b
# reboot recovery

If you are not, then you will probably have to use EDL since fastboot is most non-functional these days. Check my sig, learn about EDL.

C:\>edl /lpoke6.bin
C:\>edl /w /precovery_a rec.img
C:\>edl /w /precovery_b rec.img
C:\>edl /z
C:\>adb reboot recovery

Once you're there, it's time for a little sanity test.

C:\>adb shell
# start autoupdate

Do you see friendly text? Good.

Download the upx from the link above. Use DeBooxUpx to decrypt it. Take update.zip and put it on a flash drive or a micro SD card. Plug/stuff the flash/card into your reader. It should start and run happily, then reboot to new system. It will also overwrite your nice custom recovery. You can go back and write it again or just wait until you need it next time.

Thanks for your detail guide. I did it successful last night on my Poke6.

Do you see friendly text? Good.

Yes, I see the normal text after reboot to recovery and also Autoupdate process in percentage.

Hi Renate. Im having a Poke 6 running firmware 3.5.4. Could I use the Go6 4.0 beta version link you gave above to update my Poke 6 to Go6
If it's possible, could you kindly sent me the custom rec? Tks alot

[Renate]

So what happened? I thought that I gave you the Go6 custom recovery.

You keep talking of different devices so I'm all confused.

Hi, I'm trying to test poke6 firmware on my Go6, is the poke6 rec img available anywhere?
Did a lot of search but get nothing.

Thanks!

You want to turn your international device to Chinese release?
Ok, The Chinese has already gone to 4.

Use the same procedure as above for Ronnie.

It might be good to use EDL to make a 32 GB backup as going to 4 might cause non-rollback-able changes to userdata.

Thanks @vuanh1408 @Renate for the quick update.
I'll definitely try it!
