[Zgemma H9 Combo] Software Update

[oldhooky]

I tried to do a software update today and I received a message saying ***DO NOT ONLINE UPDATE***. It goes on to say that I need to flash via recovery menu by USB or online and I should come here for further instructions, but I'm not sure what I'm looking for. Why can't I simply do a software update? Thanks.

If you perform an update, it will not boot. This is because there are partition changes (or something similar).

Please do the following:
Create a settings backup.
Download the recovery image
Flash the image using USB flash drive
When the receiver reboots, you can restore settings and plugins.
[/strike]

To be clear, when you say "Download the recovery image", do you mean the Recovery Emmc file by itself?

Sorry, I have just checked the image sizes. Please do not act on what I said. I was joining the dots on posts made elsewhere.

Please await for somebody to be clear, explicit and concise.

Sorry.

@sicilian, if somebody was going to flash the image by USB, which one would they flash? The 15.6MB, 84.5MB or both (one after the other)?
