Move Around
Update the Software on Your Phone
Palm continually provides updates to your phone’s operating system to enhance
performance and add functionality. Update notifications are sent to your phone automatically
when a system update is available (see “Respond to a System Software Notification” on
page 75). When you update your phone’s operating system, your personal information and
files are not affected.
What’s more, both Palm and many application developers make updates available for
applications you have installed on your phone. Update notifications are sent to your phone
automatically when an application update is available (see “Respond to an Application
Update Notification” on page 76).
In addition to receiving update notifications, you can manually check for software or
application updates at any time (see “Manually Check for Updates” on page 77).
Respond to a System Software Notification
When you get a notification that a system update is available, do one of the following:
ⅷ Tap Install Now twice. When installation is complete and the phone resets, tap Done.
ⅷ Tap Install Later. The next time you charge your phone, you receive another update
notification. You can again choose whether to install the update now or later. You can
choose the Install Later option up to three times. The fourth time the notification appears,
you must tap Install Now.
Note
You can use your phone while updates are being downloaded, but you
cannot use your phone while updates are being installed.
Important
Do not remove the battery while updates are being installed.
