In reply to mcmonkeys1. Here is a curious thing. There is an SD card in and the phone stores data there and I can search it. When I try to update via Settings, I am told there is no SD card installed. There is no SD card,Please insert sdcard then download (sic).

In reply to mcmonkeys1. No. I left the zip file with its own name.

In reply to Patrick.

Did you rename the file to “update.zip”?
Also, another user had success by updating through settings. Never tried that myself though.

Hi. After a lot of difficulty, I got to the point in Recovery where I can select “update from SD card”, but the file does not appear in the list. Should it already be unzipped, or why is the phone not seeing the zip file? It is in root of the SD card. Checked & rechecked. shoes@telkomsa.net

Just tested it on one of my old X5. It’s even more easy. Just Settings-> Tablet info -> Update -> Menu local update. Choose file and chose update.
