Important Notice About Firmware Updates

Firmware updates can introduce risks and potentially render your K6 non-functional (“bricking”). While we aim to provide excellent support, it’s crucial to understand the following:

Firmware Update Policy

  1. Do Not Update Firmware unless explicitly instructed by our team.
  2. Firmware updates are rare, typically unnecessary, and carry significant risks.
  3. Unauthorized Updates: If you proceed without our guidance, any issues that arise will not be covered under our warranty.

Warranty Exclusions

  • Firmware-related problems caused by unauthorized updates are not covered under Alien Rides' warranty.
  • Any repair costs due to user-bricked firmware will be the customer's responsibility.

Manufacturer Support

  • Begode, the manufacturer, may offer warranty coverage for firmware-related issues.
  • Contact Begode Software Services via WhatsApp at +86 138 1209 3629 for assistance.
  • Be prepared for a time-consuming process involving warranty authorization, part shipment, and installation.

iOS Compatibility Advisory

  • iOS devices have a high failure rate during firmware updates compared to Android (10-to-1 ratio).
  • This is due to compatibility issues between the app and hardware.
  • Begode and Extreme Bull have introduced a new Bluetooth chip to improve compatibility, but Android devices remain more reliable for updates.

Recommendation: Avoid firmware updates unless explicitly directed by our team. This will save you potential downtime, repair costs, and unnecessary frustration. If in doubt, contact us first!
