How to upgrade an existing Android eMMC load with new release
#1
If I have an existing Rock64 eMMC Android load running how do I update to the newly released Android image without wiping out any changes I'd made to the load (apps installed, Google account signed in, settings tweaked, etc.)? Do I pull the "update" zip package, unpack it and then run the update.img using the Androidtool? If so, will that write over the my existing Android image on the eMMC module or just update it?  I've looked on the forum and github but haven't found much yet. By the way, the instructions for flashing the eMMC image worked flawlessly once I located a USB A to A cable. Nice work.
