Embodiment 1

[0041] In the embodiment of the present application, a method for upgrading software is described, and the method is applied to electronic equipment.

[0042] Wherein, the electronic device runs a first operating system, and the first operating system includes M functional modules, where M is an integer greater than or equal to 1.

[0043] In practical applications, there are two methods for software upgrades, namely "full function upgrade" and "adaptive function upgrade".

[0044] The full-function upgrade is to upgrade each functional module in the first operating system, and the software upgrade method in the embodiment of the present application is to selectively upgrade the functional modules of the first operating system, such as figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0045] Step 1, obtaining an instruction to upgrade the first operating system.

[0046] For example, when the first operating system needs to be upgraded, the electronic device will first prompt the user...

Embodiment 2

[0102] In the embodiment of the present application, an electronic device is introduced, the electronic device runs a first operating system, and the first operating system includes M functional modules, where M is an integer greater than or equal to 1.

[0103] Such as Figure 5 As shown, the electronic equipment includes:

[0104] The first obtaining unit 501 is configured to obtain an instruction for upgrading the first operating system.

[0105] The analysis unit 502 is configured to analyze, based on the instruction, the number of times the M function modules are used within a predetermined period of time to obtain an analysis result.

[0106] The obtaining unit 503 is configured to obtain, based on the analysis result, P functional modules that have been used a predetermined number of times in a predetermined period of time among the M functional modules, wherein P is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and P is less than or equal to M.

[0107] The first upgrading ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a software upgrading method and an electronic device. The software upgrading method is applicable to the electronic device. The electronic device comprises a first operating system, the first operating system comprises M function modules, wherein M is an integer larger than or equal to 1. The software upgrading method comprises obtaining an instruction of upgrading the first operating system; based on the instruction, analyzing the number of times of usage of the M function modules in a preset time period to obtain an analysis result; based on the analysis result, obtaining P function modules which reach the preset number of times of usage within the preset time period, wherein P is an integer larger than or equal to 1 and smaller than or equal to M; upgrading the P function modules.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computers, in particular to a software upgrading method and an electronic device. Background technique [0002] At present, in the design of electronic equipment, software upgrade has become a standard configuration. Smartphones, tablet computers, smart TVs and other devices are connected to background upgrade servers to download upgrade packages and perform version upgrades. [0003] In the upgrade process, the existing technology usually adopts two ways to upgrade: [0004] The first one is full upgrade. [0005] Full upgrade, that is, the obtained upgrade package will completely replace the software in the current system. It is generally used in the process of a major upgrade of the operating system, similar to the flashing operation. [0006] The upgrade package for full upgrade is usually relatively large and takes a long time to download, and if a problem occurs during the upgrade process, the system will n...
