Not a problem at all my friend, I put it at the end of my R36S over Look video but figured that video is like 23 minutes long. So I just made a little video with what I thought would be most valuable to others. I’m always learning and as I go I like to share. I generally share with people in real life but now I want to become confident enough to share with others across the internet. Thank you for the appreciation it truly means a lot 🙏

That was incredibly useful, thank you! Other tip pages and help videos I tried had too much obtuse techno speak and needed dongles, this was super simple.

Thanks a lot. Just few tips : I've tried with 2 C to C cable, it doen't work (cheap charge cable ?) and my OTG adapter to the phone USB cable... and I doen't work too... until I've switched the side with the OTG adapter from phone to console, finally phone shared connection ! BUT could find the update menu, because on the reeived theme it's hidden, I've changed the theme and finally the update menu is found, and update launched.

Yeh definitely works using my Oppo to usb tether, again thank you I was tunnel vision on getting my wifi dongle to work 😅

Many thanks for this ( much needed) help. I don't have a PC or a WiFi dongle.

There are many USB-C cables that are only for fast charging and have no data lines. Please try all of your other cables if it does not work. Also, you can charge your android phone to 100%. Then change the battery settings to only charge it to 85%. This should keep your phone from wanting to pull power from your R36s long enough to update it over USB.
