-All four downloads contain the same operating system 0051; they differ only in the apps, the **app build**. Take the one that fits your car: under ''Settings › About'' tap the version entry about **5 times**; then the **System**, **MCU** and **AP version** are shown. The **AP version** ends in your app build. **Write it down before flashing** — afterwards the car shows the stick's version.

   * With firmware 0051 the **System version** ends in **_060**. If it ends in **_052**, your car still has an older firmware, e.g. 0046 — then each of these sticks is an update of the operating system (see above).

+We tested the image format on 18 October 2026 on our test head unit and in a car.
+===== Writing the stick =====
+The ZIP contains an ''.img'' file: the image of a complete USB stick. It is **not copied** but **written** onto the stick with an imaging tool. Afterwards the stick is byte for byte the one we tested, however it was formatted before. This **erases everything on the stick**. Any stick of 1 GB or more will do.
-Unzip the three files ''imx6.ini'', ''imx6.bin'' and ''imx6ap.bin'' onto an empty **FAT32-formatted** USB stick.
+  - Unzip the ZIP (right-click › **Extract All**) — that gives the ''.img'' file.
+  - **Windows: Rufus** ([[https://rufus.ie|rufus.ie]], the portable version needs no installation): pick the stick under **Device**, open the ''.img'' file with **SELECT**, press **START**, confirm the erase and wait until the status says **READY**.
+  - **macOS: dd** in the Terminal: ''diskutil list'' shows the stick (e.g. ''/dev/disk4''), then ''diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk4'' and ''sudo dd if=stock-0051-ap060-raw.img of=/dev/rdisk4 bs=1m'' (adjust the file name and the number).
+  - **Linux: dd** — ''lsblk'' shows the stick (e.g. ''/dev/sdb''), then ''sudo dd if=stock-0051-ap060-raw.img of=/dev/sdb bs=4M conv=fsync status=progress''.
+  - ⚠️ With ''dd'', make sure it really is the stick — a wrong device overwrites another disk.
+  - Afterwards the stick shows a 750–860 MB drive with exactly ''imx6.ini'', ''imx6.bin'' and ''imx6ap.bin''. Don't copy anything onto it. If Windows asks to format the drive: **Cancel**.
+  - balenaEtcher works on many computers too; if it stops with "The writer process ended unexpectedly", use Rufus.
