How to flash your GeeksPhone Keon or Peak.

  1. Make sure that you have at least 50% of battery remaining. This is important, because if your phone switches off while updating, maybe you will need to send it to RMA.
  2. With the phone not connected by USB, go to Settings, Device Information, More Information, Developer and check Remote Debugging flag on.
  3. Use a USB cable to connect it to your computer.
  4. Download the needed image. http://downloads.geeksphone.com/
  5. Unzip the image in a folder.
  6. Download compiled adb and fastboot for mac if needed: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1644097/adbfastbootmac.zip
  7. Execute the following commands:
./adb reboot bootloader
./fastboot flash boot boot.img
./fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
./fastboot flash system system.img
./fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
./fastboot erase cache
./fastboot reboot
