Unbrick your ST16s

[record.play.rewind]

Early this morning, I downloaded the new firmware and in the middle of remote downloading process the controller was stuck in 56% and all of the suddent ST16s rebooted itself and error messages appeared "unfortunately, the android process has stopped" and the second message "unfortunately, launcher has stopped"

I ran into this write up.

Advanced User Info, including SDK

If you tap rapidly 5 times the Advanced Menu will be available. DO NOT do this except under the direct direction of authorized Yuneec Techs. It is all too easy to make accidental changes that brick or crash the craft.

The ST16s was able to complete the download and the method helped debrick the controller.

FWIW I updated mine this morning without incident.

If ever you brick an Android ST16s that’s the procedure.

Yep. Just passing along another data point in the wind. Your update had issues, and you found a resolution. Mine had not issues. Just making the point that sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

‘‘Twas more of a home WiFi issue, as well as an Android issue if any downloaded data is interrupted.
