Thanks, where can I find the system updater cache, found an ‘app updater’, and cleared that cache, but e/OS still reports it has the latest version 1.14.
I see star2lte is 2.3, so 1.14 is behind a few.
If clearing the cache does not work, then to apply the update, excuse my limited knowledge, do I download the update and then boot into recovery mode and i will find ‘apply update’ in the menu options.
If the system cache does not work then I will try the manual upgrade, so to get into ‘e-recovery’ do I press ‘Volume down’ and ‘Powe’ buttons together for a few seconds, and let it re-boot ?
Press ‘update’, and find the ZIP, I presume that can reside anywhere, say in Downloads for example.
‘and choose “install” (if TWRP) or “apply update” (if recovery-e)’
… under ‘Apply Update’ the only oprion is to ‘Apply from ADB’ … I note at the bottom of the screen it states ‘Now send the package you want to apply to the device with "adb sideload ’.
Searching for what ADB side Load is on this community site brings up nothing to help.
I assumed ‘apply update’ would direct me to find the above downloaded file, and away it would go.
So sorry am stuck, can you help.
Assuming I am guided correctly, is not the downloaded file a full version of the OS, will it know just to update, and not overwrite with its version.
So you need a computer as recovery-e for your device does not have the “apply update from internal storage” feature, use the instructions in “step (9)” of the linked guide [HOWTO] an Unified Install Guide Project for /e/
the phone screen will be mostly blank with just the output at the bottom showing progress.
(Do not take attention to the wipe related things on the photo !)
On the computer the sideloading shows progress as a percentage figure that will stop at 47%. The phone will still be installing though (even though it might feel like nothing is happening sometimes!) and you can expect to see the following screens (excepting the wipe related things)
