Welcome, in today's video, we have a demonstration on how to upgrade the firmware for the first
model of the Alfawise H96 Pro plus, Android 6.0 TV box.
After the break, I'll do a step by step demonstration, upgrading the H96 Pro plus to Android 7.1
Nougat.
So stay tuned, I'll be back after this.

So I'm back, and as we begin, the H96 line of TV boxes takes the spotlight again with
two-new upgrades.
The first is the new Alfawise H96 Pro plus model currently being sold running on Android
7.1, and the second upgrade is a firmware upgrade for the original model running on
Android 6.0.
So today I'll be doing the firmware upgrade for the original model.
To complete this upgrade you'd need 6 things.
You would need the H96 Pro plus first model, a blank micro SD Card, at least 4GB in size,
a Burn card PC software, the latest firmware, an object like a paper clip to press the reset
button, and a PC or laptop with an SD card slot.
Complete the following steps.
Step 1.
Download the Burn card software, and the latest firmware from the description area below this
video, or from my product page.
Step 2.
Unzip the Burn card software into a folder, this is not an installation file, just a standalone
program.
Step 3.
Unzip the firmware into a folder.
Step 4.
Insert the SD card into the SD card slot on your PC. and take note of the drive letter.
Step 5.
Open the folder where you unzipped the program, and run the burn card program.
Step six.
The program starts in Chinese, an you have to switch to English by selecting the writing
in the top left corner, and select the check box where it says English version.
Click OK to close the option, and then exit the program and restart it again to get it
in English.
Step 7.
Once restarted, at the top select choose disk. and select the drive that the SD card is inserted.
Step 8.
Check the four check boxes, and click the browse button and open the firmware folder.
and select the image file.
Step 9.
Once you have selected the firmware image file, click the make button.
You would be prompted to format the SD card, click the start button and wait for the card
to be formatted.
Once the formatting is completed, click the close button and the burn process will start
automatically.
Once the burn process is completed, click the OK button and close the program.
Step 10.
Remove the SD card from the PC properly, by right clicking on the drive and selecting
eject.
Step 11.
Connect the TV box to your TV, insert the SD card into the SD card slot, and do not
plug in the power cord at this time.
Step 12.
Using your paper clip press and hold the reset button below the box.
While pressing and holding the reset button, plug in the power cord and wait until you
see the box starts.
Release the reset button and the upgrade would begin immediately.
This process takes a few minutes, and once completed the box will reboot automatically.
So I have successfully upgraded the H96 Pro plus to Android 7.1, and just to confirm,
l'll check the system information.
If I click the settings button, as you can see that the settings opens to the right side
of the screen.
The box was flashed so you would need to enable developer options to get full access to all
settings.
You do this by simply clicking repeatedly on the build information until it says that
you are a developer.
If I click more settings, and then about media box, here it shows the model is the H96 Pro
plus, running on Android 7.1.1 Nougat.
The new firmware maintains the Navigation bar at the bottom for easy navigation, and
I'll check to see if the box is still rooted.
It shows that the box is rooted, running on Android 7.1.1 Nougat.
So this ends my demonstration of the firmware upgrade of the H96 Pro plus to Android 7.1.
