Updating the firmware on your T1000-E is crucial for new features and bug fixes. Meshtastic uses the littlefs library to store configuration, logs, and other data in the internal flash. Updating the firmware does not erase this additional data, which can cause issues if the format or location of data changes between releases. Therefore, it is recommended to perform a factory reset before updating the firmware.

To enter DFU (Device Firmware Update) mode for flashing firmware:

1. Connect the T1000-E to your computer using the 4-pin magnetic charging cable. Ensure the data cable is securely connected, as a loose connection can affect the flashing process.
2. Tẹ mọlẹ bọtini lori ẹrọ naa.

After the firmware transfer is complete, the device will automatically restart and boot with the new firmware.
