I have a Samsung galaxy Ace, I want to update my phone.
But I have a doubt, because I have some important data's in my phone and also some contacts. I don't want to loose it.
Do I need to take a Backup before?
Dear Deloresigott ,
You want to update your Samsung galaxy ace phone. When your phone will update its software to its newer version, phone will discard all old software’s and data. In some cases some phone may not delete old software and data.
If you want to update your android OS to its newer version, then it will better to take a backup of your phone’s data. You must take your contact numbers and SMS in backup
If you don’t want to lose your data, after taking a backup, you update your phones firmware.
I hope you understand my suggestion.
Thank you.
