Flashing

Install a build over fastboot or through recovery, depending on the package you downloaded.

Read Getting started first. Which method you use depends on the package your device ships.

Over fastboot

Use this route if your build archive ends in -images.zip.

shell

adb reboot bootloader
fastboot update build.zip

Reboot to the bootloader, then apply the update

Flashing takes a few minutes and the device will reboot more than once. Leave it alone until it settles.

Use this route if your build archive is a recovery package. Flash a custom recovery or CipherOS Recovery first.

shell

adb reboot sideload
adb sideload build.zip

Reboot to sideload, then push the package

The device reboots once the sideload completes. Stuck, or something looks wrong? Head to Troubleshooting.
