Abstract

The invention discloses a software upgrading method and system for a mobile terminal. The method includes the steps: respectively finding partition tables of new version software and old version software to generate corresponding backup lists; scanning all files of the new version software to generate a differential upgrading package comprising the partition table of the new version software and the backup lists; storing backup data needing backup in the mobile terminal into an SD (secure digital) card according to the backup lists, re-partitioning a storage of the mobile terminal according to the partition table of the new version software of the differential upgrading package, and correspondingly writing the backup data on the SD card into partitions; uncompressing the differential upgrading package to obtain corresponding differential files, generating corresponding new version files according to the differential files and old version files in the mobile terminal, and writing the corresponding new version files into the mobile terminal. Therefore, upgrading is completed, the software can be upgraded when the partition tables of the storage of the mobile terminal need to be changed, and great convenience is brought for users.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of mobile terminals, in particular to a method and system for upgrading software of a mobile terminal. Background technique [0002] Existing smart phones, such as mobile phones using the Android system, often have a need for software upgrades. Under normal circumstances, FOTA upgrade (Firmware Over-The-Air, software upgrade over the air) will be used. FOTA upgrade is a simple and friendly upgrade method, and the mobile phone software can be upgraded to the latest version with almost no operation required by the user. However, under the current situation of rapid development of smart phones, it is often necessary to modify the internal memory partition table of the mobile phone due to software version upgrades (or changes in software requirements). However, the existing FOTA mechanism cannot handle such situations. [0003] Specifically, in the field of mobile terminals and the entire embedded field, taking...
