Helpful Pointers
File
File for Binary/Patch is available on below URL.
It will be used to upgrade phone in almost all scenarios
Where XXXXX and YYYYYY are latest binary/ Android OS package path
Path Can be found in latest TC2347
On the OXO there are a few arguments that will have to be checked
For local HTTP server, follow TC2461: Deployment Guide for Smart DeskPhone 8088 NOE with Windows Server 2016
Download file from cloud to be uploaded to HTTP server is :
http://8088-noe-project.al-enterprise.com/ale_tx/8088/deliveries/XXXXXX/YYYYYYYY.zip (TC2347)
On the HTTP server, the directory structure must be identical to that of the download URL. Copy the folder /8088/
under the <BASE_HTTP> in the directory structure of the HTTP server where <BASE_HTTP> = http://Local Server/NOE
1.2) Cloud
If external HTTP server (CLOUD) ensure :
Network access
internet connection
DNS
If Static IP configured on phone
If Alcatel Dynamic IPconfigured on OXO
Proxy (if needed)
Cloud URL as Android Upgrade URL: http://8088-noe-project.al-enterprise.com/ale_tx/8088/deliveries/XXXXXX/
YYYYYYYY.zip
IMPORTANT NOTE:
After upgrade has been completed, Remove the “android upgrade URL”, otherwise the set will stay in the version
and will not upgrade to newer versions
2)Phone
TC2347 ed.07
NB: Notice that the URL path is different in Phone VS OXO URL.
This is because directly on the Phone the direct OTA file path is needed.( Patch file). If delivery File is chosen , the file
will start to download, but will FAIL.
Create Text File at root and Name “ALE8088Commands”. DO NOT add Extention .TXT at the end (save without file
extension)
Helpful Pointers
Upgrade logs
To be able to follow if the Phone is upgrading , it is possible to launch the Command “logcat | grep -i
ALEUpgradeService”.
It will allow an overview of what the phone is doing with regard to the upgrade
Best used when opened in separate SSH window in parallel to main window.
Dwl commands
Other commands
It is possible to do basic network commands directly on phone such as
ping
Traceroute
These can be very helpful to test proper DNS resolution, internet connectivity and proxy configurations.
