Sideloading via ADB

You can install the Herelink QGroundControl-v5 APK manually on your Herelink controller using ADB over USB. Follow the steps below if you're not familiar with sideloading.

Install ADB

Install adb (Android Debug Bridge) if you don't have it already:

• Linux (Debian/Ubuntu): sudo apt install android-tools-adb
• macOS: brew install android-platform-tools
• Windows: Download Android SDK Platform-Tools and extract it. Add the folder to your PATH or run adb from there directly.

Enable USB debugging

1. Enable developer mode on the Herelink controller: Settings -> About phone -> Tap Build number 7 times.
2. Then, enable USB debugging in Settings > Developer options -> USB debugging.
3. Connect the Herelink controller to your computer via USB.

Install the APK

1. Download the latest APK from the Releases page.
2. Install the APK:

   adb install QGroundControl-v5.0.8.1-herelink.apk
   

   If a previous (sideloaded) version is already installed, use the -r flag to replace it:

   adb install -r QGroundControl-v5.0.8.1-herelink.apk
