NTT docomo FOMA SO706i Instruction Manual page 380

It is recommended that you perform software updates when the handset is stationary and in a location with
good signal quality (three bars for the antenna icon).
* If the reception becomes poor and then the download is interrupted, try to update again in a place where
the reception is good.
Updating the software with the "PIN1 code entry set" set to "ON" displays the PIN1 code entry screen in the
automatic restart after installing the software. You cannot make or receive a call or use other communication
functions if you do not enter the correct PIN1 code.
You cannot download the update software:
• When the FOMA card (UIM) is not inserted
• When PIN lock is set
• When date and time are not set
• When the Self mode is set
• When packet dialing is restricted
• During 64K data communication
When the reservation time comes while the other function is used, downloading starts after finishing the
function (cannot start depending on functions)
You cannot rewrite the updated software:
• When Omakase Lock is set
If the auto-update rewriting fails, rewriting again at the Set auto-update time (next day or one week later).
Calls, communications and other functions are not available while software is being updated. However, voice
calls can be answered while downloading.
If the software has already been updated, "No update is needed Please continue to use as before" is
displayed when you check for new software updates.
After updating the software, the displayed i-mode Center storage status icon disappears. Also, if the receive
option is set to "ON" and mail is received while updating the software, the mail notification screen may not be
displayed after the software has been updated.
When you update the software, information specific to your FOMA terminal (model, manufacturer number,
etc.) is automatically sent to the server (the server for software updates managed by NTT DOCOMO). The
information sent to NTT DOCOMO is not used for any other purpose than updating the software.
If the update fails, the message "Rewrite failed" will appear and all operations will become unavailable. In
this case, please seek advice at a repair counter designated by DOCOMO.
N
Do not remove the battery pack while updating the software. Doing so may cause the update to fail.
It is possible to perform software updates while keeping your Phonebook entries, camera images, downloaded data
and other data saved on the FOMA terminal intact. However, note that in some cases data cannot be protected
depending on the condition of your FOMA terminal (malfunction, damage, water exposure, etc.). It is recommended
that you back up important data. (It may not be possible to back up some data such as downloaded data.)
In case of Now update or Reserved update, when the software update is completed without operation for
confirmation, you will see the shortcut icon "
the security code to see the detail results of the update.
