Software updates over the air

Your service provider may send phone
software updates over the air directly to
your phone (network service). This option
may not be available, depending on your
phone.
Downloading software updates may
involve the transmission of large amounts
of data through your service provider's
network. Contact your service provider for
information about data transmission
charges.
Make sure that the device battery has
enough power, or connect the charger
before starting the update.
Warning: If you install a software
update, you cannot use the device, even
to make emergency calls, until the
installation is completed and the device is
restarted. Be sure to back up data before
accepting installation of an update.
