Oftentimes, Stock Android Boxes do not automatically update to the latest firmware which forces users to manually install them.

We can easily do this by downloading the update from the developer's official website and installing on our device.

In this tutorial, we provide screenshot instructions as well as a video guide that provides important details.

The following guide shows how to update Android TV Box manually using a MECOOL KM2.

However, this process is similar for any generic Android Box including X96 Max and more.

IMPORTANT NOTE : Updating generic Android TV devices oftentimes requires a factory reset of the device.
