Update Digi Embedded for Android

Regardless of your current version, you can only install the new Digi Embedded for Android 9.0-r3 using the source code installer. Follow the steps in Install Digi Embedded for Android to download the new version.

Digi eventually will release hotfixes in the form of 9.0-r(x). To advance 9.0-r(x-1) to 9.0-r(x), sync your installation with the HEAD of the release branch:

$ repo sync -c -d --optimized-fetch -j<Number_Of_Jobs>
-j argument sets the number of projects to fetch simultaneously. The git servers have a limit on how many connections you can have open at the same time. It may make parallel 'repo sync' fail if '-j' parameter is too high.
