Get started

Before you start
  • Back up your data and settings (and the stock firmware, when the guide says how).
  • Check the exact model, hardware revision and firmware version against the guide: a close model may not work.
  • Charge the battery or use a stable power supply; do not unplug during the install.

Use libairspy and host tools (nothing is flashed)
