Sounds like you have it sorted but just need to test out. Cool! I hope it's a successful flight.
Otherwise there's two variants of P4P - the standard and the Plus. The latter has it's own tablet and uses an Android build. The RC update process may be slightly different between the two.
But just so you know what works for me:
I always update my P4P while cool (only just powered on) via USB to my PC running Assistant 2, ensuring all batteries are on a full charge first. The RC is Not powered on at this stage. After successful firmware update, I do a VPS calibration, followed by a gimbal calibration on a perfectly flat surface.
I then power on the RC with tablet/phone connected, and start the DJI GO app. If an RC update is required, a message should appear on the 'splash' screen saying so. It then gives me the option to update, which I accept. This is achieved via attached tablet/phone wireless connection.
After rebooting both craft and RC after update, if they do not successfully link (link lights on each stay red), I force a manual re-link. This is done by pressing both of the C1 and C2 buttons along with the Record button (the one on the left corner as you hold the RC). When the RC startes making a D-D-D sound and the LED is flashing blue, I use a paperclip or toothpick to push in the link button on the P4P for a few seconds.
If the app at any point says it requires an IMU and/or compass calibration, I do that. Otherwise I don't. But if I do, I then do another gimbal calibration following - it requires your IMU settings to be right.
Hopefully that's it - in a perfect world.
