Method Detail

installUpdatePackage

public void installUpdatePackage(java.lang.String updatePackagePath,
                        IFirmwareUpdateListener listener,
                        boolean verify,
                        java.lang.String deviceCertsZipFile)

Installs the given update package.

This method returns immediately. All the update process is executed on a new thread using the given listener as the communication interface.

If the update package is not located in the '/data' partition, the file is copied there before performing the update.

If the verification flag is set, the update package is verified before performing the update using the given certificates file or the system default one.

A reboot is performed in order to install the update package.

Parameters:

updatePackagePath - Full path of the update package to install.

listener - An object implementing the IFirmwareUpdateListener interface to receive firmware update progress information.

verify - true to verify the update package signature, false otherwise. Package signature will be verified using the provided certificates zip file if any. If not, the default system certificates file will be used.

deviceCertsZipFile - Full path to the zip file of certificates whose public keys will be accepted. Verification succeeds if the package is signed by the private key corresponding to any public key in this file. May be null to use the system default file, currently "/system/etc/security/otacerts.zip". This parameter only applies if verify == True

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - If updatePackagePath == null or if (@code listener == null}.
