They are no scripts to enable update. If the LEDs are flashing only few second after you released the button, the update is not taking place. Try again. If LEDs are flashing after few minutes, the update is taking place.
To investigate, let’s try if your “enter button” is working correctly, connect to the Parrot S.L.A.M.dunk and type: watch -n 0.1 cat /sys/devices/platform/user-gpio/button_enter/value
When the button is released, it should display 0, when the button is pressed it should display 1.
My “enter button” seems to be working as expected
I have been trying to update for the past one week now. It never goes into update. These are the steps I followed:
keep enter button pressed
connect power
count to 5
release enter button
Please let me know where I am going wrong.

I was finally able to update the firmware. For some reason there was an empty folder created in the /media directory. This is why the update was not taking place. It worked when I deleted this folder. Thanks for all the help!
@akkasuddin I am facing the same problem.
I copied the recovery file as is inside the USB and held the multifunction button , plugged power, held button for ~3 sec . Nothing happens. Just the side LEDs blink directly.
where is this /media folder. I cannot login to the slamdunk as it does not pass boot.
