Step 1: Prepare the USB Drive

• Format USB drive to FAT32 (not NTFS or exFAT)
• Use a USB drive 8GB or smaller for best compatibility
• Copy the firmware file (.bin or .abs) to the root directory (not inside any folder)

Step 2: Install the Software

• Insert USB into the receiver
• Go to Menu → Tools → USB Upgrade
• Select the software file and press OK
• DO NOT turn off the device during installation
• Wait for the process to complete (typically 2-3 minutes)
• The receiver will restart automatically

Step 3: Verify Installation

• Go to Menu → System → System Information
• Check that the software version has been updated
• Perform a channel scan if channels are missing

Method 2: Online Update (If Available)

• Connect receiver to internet (Ethernet or Wi-Fi)
• Go to Menu → System → Software Update
• If available, click Download & Install (less common for these receivers)

Method 3: Recovery Installation (For Bricked Devices)

For devices stuck in boot loop or displaying "Upgrade File is Wrong":

• Download DZGX6605s USB RESCUE tool
• Connect receiver via RS232 cable + USB
• Rename firmware to gx6605s_all
• Run the recovery tool and follow prompts

Method 4: Using Loader Tool

Important Notes Before Updating

⚠️ Critical Warnings:

1. Hardware Version: Always match software to your hardware version. Some software works on all GX6605S HW203 boards.
2. First Boot After Update: Some versions show "WRONG SN" (wrong serial number) after first update. Solution: Connect WiFi, wait 1-2 minutes, restart receiver.
3. Refresh Rate: Some firmware uses 50Hz refresh rate. US users may need composite output for HDMI to work.
4. Downgrade Requirement: To revert from a converted software, you may first need to install a "Recovery Soft" before installing other versions.
5. File Validation: Do not delete .orig_size files when modifying firmware - the tool needs them for proper repacking.
