Software can be updated with data such as
Phonebook entries, camera images, downloaded
data retained in the FOMA terminal. Note that,
however, such data may not be protected depending
on the conditions of the FOMA terminal (malfunction,
damage, exposure to water, etc.). It is recommended
that you make a backup of important data. Note that
some data such as downloaded data cannot be
backed up.
