How to update Firefox OS 1.3 to 2.0 with Windows
I have Flame - a Firefox OS Developer Preview device. It was shipped with Firefox OS 1.3 version. After using it for few days I wanted to update my OS. I went to the Mozilla Developer Network (MDN) Site. However, the processes they described there looked a little complex for me. So, now I am writing about the detailed process of updating the device.
I am using Windows 8.1 and my device is Flame. This may not work with other devices. Follow the processes step by step.
NOTE: If you brick your device I will not take any responsibility. Charge your device battery upto minimum 50% before updating. Disable screen lock before starting. Simply go to Settings > Screen Lock and tap to disable lock screen or passcode lock.
1. Plug your device into your computer with a USB cable.
2. If windows could not detect your device, you have to download and install the device driver.
Download windows driver from HERE: cds.w5v8t3u9.hwcdn.net/Alcatel_USB_Driver_Q_4.0.0_2013_11_11_noinstall.zip
After downloading extract the zip file. Go to the extracted folder and double click on
DriverInstaller.exe executable. You may receive a warning at this point that the executable is from an unknown publisher. If so, select the 'Yes' button and the executable will be launched. Click on the install button to start installing.Hi ! I'm Raad. And this my personal blog. Welcome to my blog.
