Flashing sealed P8

Open tbondar opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

I'm wondering if there are any instructions about how to flash a stock P8 using OTA only (without opening it)? If there's some information about the steps it would be useful to include that in the documentation somewhere.

Hypnos is not compatible with the factory-installed bootloader in P8, so the only way to install it is to open up the P8 and replace the running software using a SWD programmer. After this, it should be possible to perform OTA-updates if you're using the most recent build (but not the most recent release).

Other projects have been able to swap booloaders like ATCwatch. See details for wasp-os: https://wasp-os.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html#daflasher-for-android
