Update Pixavi Phone software from recovery mode


If you have been provided a software update file, this can be installed by first putting the phone in recovery mode. Before attempting to do this, the ADB software tool must be installed on the PC. You can find the tool in the Downloads section here.


Boot to recovery mode


There are two ways you can put the phone in recovery mode:

1. Use the adb command

  1. Enable ADB on the device
  2. Connect the device to your PC with a USB cable.
  3. Open the Windows command line interface: Click the Start menu, type "cmd," and press enter.
  4. In the terminal, type:
    adb reboot recovery
    and press enter.


2. Use the phone buttons

  1. Power off the phone
  2. Power on, while pressing the volume down button.
  3. The phone will now boot to fastboot mode. Use the volume buttons to toggle the menu to Recovery mode
  4. Press the power button.


After both these methods, you will see an Android icon and a line saying No command. Simultaneously press the volume up the power button, and the device will proceed to recovery mode.



Apply the update


  1. Use the volume buttons to select Apply update from ADB, then press the power button
  2. In the command line interace, type
    adb sideload <update filename>
    Instead of typing the file name with path, you can click and drag the file to the terminal after entering adb sideload
