  • So result should look like update/f7-update-(CURRENT VERSION)/ with all files in this folder on microSD card, remember iOS default Files app doesnt show all files properly (3 instead of 6), so you need to use another app for unpacking or use PC or Android
  • Verify that all files are present on your microSD card
  • After all you need to insert microSD card back into flipper, navigate into filebrowser, open this file update/f7-update-(CURRENT VERSION)/update.fuf
