Struggling with your device yelling, "Can't find OTA upgrade package in the USB root directory"? Don't panic! This common issue usually has a simple fix. First, double-check the basics: is the OTA package file actually in the *root* directory of your USB drive? That means not in any folders within the drive, but right at the top level.
Next, confirm the file name is exactly as required by your device's instructions. Even a single typo can cause this error. Finally, ensure your USB drive is formatted correctly (usually FAT32). If it's formatted differently, your device might not be able to read it.
Still no luck? Try re-downloading the OTA package – the original download may have been corrupted. A quick re-download from a reliable source could be all it takes to get your upgrade back on track!
