Good to know before the update:

• Android 4.0’s hardware requirements are more advanced than previous software updates, so your phone’s performance may be affected.
• Our commitment to offering you the best, means that once upgraded you will not be able to revert back to an older version of Android.
• To optimise your phone’s performance, some applications may have been disabled and will not be visible on your screen. A new installed application called ‘Performance Assistant’ will help you enable these apps. Please also note that some 3rd party applications may not be compatible with Android 4.0. Please visit Google Play’s marketplace to view apps that are compatible with Android 4.0 or contact the 3rd party developers directly for support.
• Flash support will be disabled, but this can be easily fixed by visiting Google Play’s marketplace and downloading the latest available Adobe Flash player application.

You can download the new software by connecting your phone to a computer and use one of our computer applications.
