🔩 Firmware Upgrade

Firmware ships inside the installer — nothing to download. Day-to-day upgrades are one click in Settings → Device.

How to upgrade

1. Open Settings (the ⚙ at the bottom of the left shortcut library)
2. Switch to the Device tab
3. Look at the Firmware version row:
   • Already current → it just shows the version (e.g. 1.0.21)
   • A newer firmware ships with the installer → it shows current → available plus an Upgrade button
4. Click Upgrade → a progress dialog walks through: enter download mode → wait for USB drive → write firmware → re-check version
5. “Upgrade succeeded, device is running x.x.x” means done

While upgrading

Note	Detail
Don't unplug USB	An interrupted write can leave the device in download mode
Closing the dialog is safe	The upgrade keeps running in the background and the version is re-checked
Just retry on failure	No automatic retry — close the dialog and click Upgrade again
Status text	Offline → “Device not connected”; in progress → “Upgrading…”

Manual download mode (troubleshooting)

If the automatic flow can't proceed, use Settings → Device → Enter upgrade mode (“enter download mode”): the device shows up as a USB drive labelled QUAKE DFU — copy the firmware from resources/firmware onto it. A brief black screen and reboot during the process is normal.

Prefer the Upgrade button for normal upgrades — it verifies versions for you.
