Flashing firmwares and sound packages from your smartphone (Android and iOS)
Roborock v1/v2(S50/51/55), T6, S6, 1S, T7, Q7 are supported.
The first and second generations have common language packs. The third (T6, S6, 1S) has its own packs.
Android:
(only pkg is supported, neither 7z, nor zip, nor rar but only pkg in the unarchived view; as for sound packages, be aware that wav-files in an archive isn't a pkg-package). These packages should be opened only from the internal storage (/sdcard). It will better if you place packages into root folder. Also avoid any special characters in file names, as the robot isn't able to download such files.
iOS:
Firmwares and sound packages must be placed in Documents folder of the application by iTunes (Shared Files section), iTools, iFunbox or other similar applications. (only pkg is supported, neither 7z, nor zip, nor rar but only pkg in the unarchived view; as for sound packages, be aware that wav-files in an archive isn't a pkg-package). Also avoid any special characters in file names, as the robot isn't able to download such files.
At the moment, there are two ways (see below):
- Without Wi-Fi reset of the robot (you need to get the token by any available ways).
- With Wi-Fi reset (the application will get the token by itself)
The instruction without Wi-Fi reset (you need to get the token by any available ways):
- Launch the application.
- Click the menu and then Settings.
- Fill the IP and token of the robot.
- Click the "Save" button.
- The application will ask you to restart the application for applying the settings, kill the application:
- Android: double click to "Back" button or click "Exit" from the menu.
- iOS: double click to "Home" button and swipe up the application to kill it.
- Launch my program again. The program is written for "blondies": there is almost no way to make mistakes. It consists of two buttons (firmware and sound), and that's all. An "About" menu is also available should you want to know more about me and contribute to the project.
- The buttons will be inactive until the program has established connection with the robot and received a status.
- As soon as the status have arrived, the buttons become active and you can start flashing the robot.
- Choose a firmware or sound package.
- Notice the log under the buttons and rejoice at the quick and easy flashing.
If you got an error:
- "timeout: Could not connect to the vacuum, handshake is timeout", it means that you filled the invalid IP of the robot.
- "timeout: Call to the vacuum timed out" after 50 tries to get the status, it means that you filled the invalid token.
- "timeout: Call to the vacuum timed out" after 50 tries of flashing a firmware, it means that your cleaner doesn't support local updates (it was blocked 4004 and higher for the first generation, 1910 and higher for the second generation, the third generation was blocked always). The first and second generation can be reseted to the factory firmware if it is below 4004 for the first generation, below 1910 for the second generation. https://support.roborock.com/hc/en-us/articles/360035372632-How-to-reset-Roborock-to-factory-default
The instruction with Wi-Fi reset (the application will get the token by itself):
- You need to reset the Wi-Fi settings of the robot to use this program (you will need to add the robot to MiHome again after all processing is complete).
- For the first version: press the "Home" and "Power" buttons simultaneously within 3 seconds.
- For the second version: press the "Spot Clean" and "Home" buttons within 3 seconds.
- Your robot should say that Wi-Fi is reset and a new access point should appear in your smartphone. Connect to it.
- Disable your mobile internet because some phones ignore Wi-Fi unless it provides an internet connection.
- Launch my program. The program is written for "blondies": there is almost no way to make mistakes. It consists of two buttons (firmware and sound), and that's all. An "About" menu is also available should you want to know more about me and contribute to the project.
- The buttons will be inactive until the program has established connection with the robot and received a token and status.
- As soon as the token and status have arrived, the buttons become active and you can start flashing the robot.
- Choose a firmware or sound package.
- Notice the log under the buttons and rejoice at the quick and easy flashing.
- After all processing is complete, you will need to add the robot to the MiHome.
Attention!
Due to the built-in file manager, Play Protect considers the application potentially dangerous and doesn't allow most users to install it. To install the application anyway:
1. Open "Play Market".
2. Tap on "Play Protect" in the menu.
3. Disable the "Check security risks" option during the installation of the application.
