GuliKit ships firmware for the original KingKong Pro through its Windows update tool on gulikit.com (the King Kong controller line shares NS08/NS09 firmware releases). Always unzip the download first, then power the pad off, connect it via USB-C, and hold the Set (gear) button and A together to enter update mode before clicking Update Firmware. The browser-based setup tool at setup.gulikit.com is for newer models only and does not flash this original pad. Keep the cable connected throughout.

FAQ

Can I update from a Mac or phone?
No. The firmware tool is Windows-only; use a Windows PC and a USB-C cable. The browser tool does not support this original model.
How do I cancel an update?
Double-click the Mode button to power the controller off, which exits update mode safely before flashing starts.
