Upgrade
11.1. Overview
Cellebrite continuously updates its UFED software, providing support for
new phone devices as they are released by the various phone vendors.
The Upgrade process installs these various updates on your UFED device.
The UFED application is constructed of three main files:
1. Tiny Image – Core system software
2. Full Image – Additional core system software
3. Application – The UFED application and data, including support
for the various phone models.
When upgrading, you choose either Application Upgrade or Images
Upgrade. The Images Upgrade option updates both the Full and Tiny
images.
You can upgrade your UFED in one of three ways:
1. Locally via USB Disk Drive or via SD card
2. Locally via PC
3. Remotely via the Internet
Automatic upgrade can be done when the UFED is connected to the
internet, via the Ethernet connection.
NOTE: When performing an upgrade, the UFED will reset itself. Do not
interrupt the process at any stage. The full upgrade process takes
approximately four minutes.
