Recovery mode

To use USB update, you need to enter USB recovery mode. In USB recovery mode, it can update the file system, kernel, boot loader and BCT.

Steps to enter recovery mode:

(1) Turn off the system power, make sure that the power is turned off instead of in standby mode.

(2) Use the USB type-C link line to connect the carrier and the host.

(3) Power on.

(4) Press and hold the recovery key first, then press and hold the power key. When the light is on, release the power key, wait for 2S and release the recovery key. Or in the power-on state, press and hold the reset key and recovery key, release the reset key for 2S and then release the recovery key.

Please follow the steps of the updated manual for a system update. when entering USB recovery mode, the system will not start, and the serial port will not have debugging information output.
