Old phone update question

[J king]

Hey all..
I bought a endoscope camera to use on my old android phone that I don't use anymore. The phone is a Casio Comando.its a mil spec ruff duty that would be perfect to use in the garage.
Well I get the camera and go to install app and it won't work.says need to update the phone. Well I can't update with the phone connected to my wifi because it disables the wifi to update. Is there any way to get this update without the phone being activated? Thanks. Jim

Have you tried to update on a computer?

Updates are normally pushed out by the carrier (AT&T, Verizon, etc). The phone downloads the update via WiFi, but it needs to do some sort of verification through the carrier first.

I don't know which model Commando you have, but it looks like you probably can't update it past 4.1 (Jellybean). Android is up to 7 (Nougat) now.

It's not clear how far you can update the phone if you root it. What version of Android does the software require?

Another option might be to look for alternate software -- search the App store for "Endoscope" (you'll have to set up an account for the phone) and see if there's anything compatible with your phone.

Hope you are actually talking about a borescope or fiberscope rather than an endoscope, unless you are going into the low cost colonoscospy business.

Maybe he also does things with coat hangers to help young girls in "trouble"?

Been trying to download a different app. No luck so far. I use my phone for internet and signal is weak at times. Going to go to town and try to download. Thanks.
