FAQ
Why do I need to perform the update in both landscape and portrait modes?
It is mandatory to perform the update in both orientations to ensure that the software is fully compatible with both landscape and portrait modes. This guarantees optimal device functionality across different usage scenarios.
Can I perform the update in only one orientation?
No, the software update must be completed in both landscape and portrait orientations to ensure the device operates correctly in all scenarios.
What happens if I only update in one mode?
If you only update in one mode, the device may not function optimally in the other orientation. Both updates are necessary for complete compatibility.
What should I do if the update fails?
If the update fails, a message saying "Update failed" will be displayed. Follow these steps:
Ensure the device is connected to a stable Wi-Fi network.
Retry the update process by navigating to Settings -> Device Configuration -> Software Update.

What does the message "Stored data upload in progress" mean?
This message appears when the device is actively uploading data, preventing the software update from proceeding. You will need to wait until the data upload is finished before attempting the update again. Ensure that the device remains connected to WiFi during this process, and once the upload completes, you can retry the software update.
Will I lose all my stored data on the device?
