Guest sandriderman Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 (edited) My phone came with an app called "mobile assistant". This is now giving me a notification that a system upgrade is available: Current ver: ALPS.JB2.MP.V1.2 (this is the "build number in "about phone") Upgrade ver: ALSP.JB2.MP.V1.3_to_ALSP.JB2.MP.V1.2 Is this going to update the "rom"? I have not flashed any roms since the phone arrived but I have installed CWM. When I check in the normal android settings app it says no updates are available. I can not find the app (mobile assistant) on the play store. I'm just not sure if I should run it - I have a backup made in CWM which I assume I can restore if anything breaks? Is mobile assistant on your phones (I can make a titanium backup and share it if not). (the help page in mobile assistant states "Phone Assistant is part of FOTA (Firmware Over the Air) which could update or upgrade the phone's OS........") Download the update which is 256.99MB. Not clicked update yet Edited July 7, 2013 by sandriderman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest aliaird Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 Tried mobile assistant.
