Embodiment 1

[0026] figure 1 It is a flow chart of a mobile terminal upgrading method according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention, such as figure 1 shown, including the following steps:

[0027] Step S101, the mobile terminal backs up the NV in the flash after receiving the backup NV instruction from the PC side;

[0028] Step S102, the mobile terminal upgrades the software version;

[0029] Step S103, after the software version upgrade is completed, the mobile terminal restarts, and automatically restores the NV according to the backup NV in the flash.

[0030] In this embodiment, by backing up the NV in the flash of the mobile terminal, the flash space of the backup NV is not erased after the NV backup is successful, so that the mobile terminal can be restarted for the first time after the software version is upgraded. The backup NV in the system automatically restores the NV operation, thereby solving the problem that the upgrade time of the mobile terminal is too long, thereb...

Embodiment 2

[0035] figure 2 is a flow chart of a mobile terminal upgrading method according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention, as figure 2 shown, including the following steps:

[0036] In step S201, the PC side downloads an upgrade tool and sends a backup NV command to the mobile terminal.

[0037] In step S202, the mobile terminal performs a NV backup operation after receiving the backup instruction sent by the download tool.

[0038] Step S203 , after the backup is successful, the downloading tool on the PC side interacts with the mobile terminal to update the version software of the mobile terminal. In this embodiment, the difference between the updated version software and the traditional method is that the version upgrade is performed without erasing the dedicated flash area of ​​the backup NV.

[0039] Step S204, restarting the terminal after upgrading the terminal version. The mobile terminal will automatically restore the NV when it restarts for the first time after ...

Embodiment 3

[0051] Figure 5 is a schematic structural diagram of a mobile terminal according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention, as shown in Figure 5 As shown, the mobile terminal includes: a backup module 10 , an upgrade module 20 and a recovery module 30 . The backup module 10, the upgrade module 20 and the recovery module 30 are connected in sequence.

[0052] Wherein, the backup module 10 is used to back up the NV in the flash of the mobile terminal after receiving the backup NV instruction from the PC side; the upgrade module 20 is used to upgrade the software version of the mobile terminal; the recovery module 30 is used to update the software version After the upgrade is complete, restart the mobile terminal, and automatically restore the NV according to the backup NV in the flash.

[0053] In this embodiment, by backing up the NV in the flash of the mobile terminal, the flash space of the backup NV is not erased after the NV backup is successful, so that the mobile termi...

Abstract

The invention provides a mobile terminal and an updating method for the mobile terminal. The updating method comprises the following steps: copying NV (non-volatility) in flash after the mobile terminal receives a NV copying order from a PC (personal computer); updating the software version by the mobile terminal; and restarting the mobile terminal after finishing updating the software version and automatically recovering NV from the copied NV in the flash. According to the method, the NV is copied in flash of the mobile terminal and the flash space of the copied NV is not erased after successfully copying NV, so the operation of recovering NV can be automatically performed according to the copied NV in the flash in the process of restarting the mobile terminal after finishing updating the software version, thereby solving the problem of overlong time for updating the mobile terminal and achieving the effect of increasing the updating efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the communication field, in particular, to a method for upgrading a mobile terminal and the mobile terminal. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the mobile communication industry, the application of mobile terminal products is becoming more and more common, and has become a necessity in people's lives. [0003] For mobile terminals, the frequency of software version upgrades is relatively high in the production process, after-sales process, and user use. The traditional upgrade method is to first back up the NV (Nonvolatile Item, non-volatile memory), update the version file, restart the terminal, restore the NV, and restart the terminal, so as to achieve the purpose of upgrading the newer version. The traditional backup and recovery of NV requires multiple interactions between the PC side and the terminal, which takes tens of seconds, and more than 10 seconds to restart the device once; the dow...
