I can't boot my android device, but I've access to recovery menu. There is also a MstarUpgrade.bin which should revive my device. To be more specific this device is some kind of smart tv working on some kind of android 4.2.2. So, I need to flash MstarUpgrade.bin to restore my device I suppose.
There is also a believable tale that this firmware upgrade should starts automaticaly if you put MstarUpgrade.bin into the root of empty usb device or sdcard and enter recovery menu. But it is not working for me unfortunatelly.
There is an item "apply update from ADB" in recovery menu also. Perhaps it will help me to perform "adb sideload MstarUpgrade.bin" via adb.
BUT, I still can't make it works due to:
1) I have no drivers for this device (perhaps some universal drivers will be suitable);
2) TV has only usb ports for connecting peripherals;
3) I am not sure that this android device could be debugged via adb at all. I suppose yes, but how to make sure that adbd is running on device? I just need to find suitable drivers?
The question is - Is it possible to start firmware upgrade on my android smart TV from PC by "adb sideload" via usb-male/usb-male cable or there is complete mess in my understanding of how this works?
Here is too much magic for me, starting with using .bin upgrade file instead usual .zip package, ending with necessity to use usb-male/usb-male cable.
Please, somebody, explain it a little for me?
