Problems solved by technology

However, in the OTA multi-package continuous upgrade technology mentioned above, the terminal device can obtain multiple OTA upgrade packages by initiating a new version detection, and can directly perform multiple version upgrades based on these multiple OTA upgrade packages to upgrade the software to the latest version , in this way, compared with the single-package upgrade strategy, the probability of upgrade failure will increase, and, for different versions of software, the number of OTA upgrade packages required for an upgrade is different, and the system environment before the upgrade may also be Different, this will make it difficult for testers to verify in advance whether the upgrade can be successful in all scenarios, which undoubtedly further increases the probability of upgrade failure
In this case, if the manufacturer still releases the latest version of the software for all users, once the upgrade fails, it will cause inconvenience to a large number of users

Abstract

The invention discloses an OTA (Over the Air) upgrading control method and apparatus, and relates to the technical field of mobile communications. The influence range of OTA multi-package continuous upgrading failure is narrowed. According to the specific scheme, a server receives a version detection request sent by a first terminal device, wherein the version detection request is used for detecting whether the server is configured with an OTA upgrading package or not; whether the first terminal device is allowed to detect the OTA upgrading package or not is judged according to a preset rule; when the first terminal device is allowed to detect the OTA upgrading package, a downloading path of the OTA upgrading package is sent to the first terminal device, so that the first terminal device downloads the OTA upgrading package according to the downloading path; and when the first terminal device is not allowed to detect the OTA upgrading package, it is determined not to make a response to the version detection request. The method and the apparatus are used in an OTA upgrading process.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mobile communication, in particular to an OTA upgrade control method and device. Background technique [0002] Over the Air (English: Over the Air, OTA for short) technology is a technology for data download through a wireless network, which is usually applied in the upgrade process of fixed versions of system software of terminal devices such as mobile phones and tablet computers. At present, the single-package upgrade strategy is more commonly used. Specifically, the terminal device initiates a new version detection, and the server returns a download path to the terminal device, so that the terminal device obtains an OTA upgrade package according to the download path, and then according to the OTA Upgrade package for version upgrade. Moreover, in order to save the storage resources of the server and the time for the terminal device to download the OTA upgrade package, and reduce development cos...
