Updating Software
Check whether it is necessary to update software on the FOMA terminal. Download and update the software
via packet communication if necessary.
You will be notified of the update in the DoCoMo website or in “
お知らせ ” (News) of iMenu.
●
A charge will not be made for the packet communication to update the software.
● There are two ways to update:
Now update
: Updates immediately.
Reserved update: Updates automatically on the date and time you specified.
●
You can update the software if the i-mode host is set as the user defined host.
● Updating the software (downloading and installing) may take some time.
● When you update the software, an SSL connection is established with the server (the software update server
managed by NTT DoCoMo). Validate the certificate beforehand (default: Valid. Setting procedure
→ P.197).
●
Before updating the software, charge the battery to the full.
● It is recommended that you update the software staying in a place where the reception is good (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 update software:
● You cannot make or receive a call or use communication functions while updating the software. However, you can
receive voice calls during 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.
●
You can update the software without affecting data such as the phonebook, camera images, and downloaded data.
However, be aware that depending on the state of your FOMA terminal (malfunction, damage or exposure to water),
you may not be able to protect data.
●
It is recommended that you back up important data. (Note that there is some data, such as downloaded data, that
cannot be backed up.)
● If the software download fails, “Rewrite failed” is displayed and you cannot operate the FOMA terminal. If this
happens, take your FOMA terminal to a designated repair shop.
