My GF have a Samsung Galaxy ACE, just a few days ago when I connect the phone to kies it says that there is a firmware update for it, I didn't do it cause I dunno if it'll delete anything on the phone / memory card
1) will updating firmware delete anything on the phone? 2) any other downsides I should be aware of before I update? 3) any benefits at all updating?? |

Make sure you are running stock firmware with locked bootloader.  the heck is alocked bootloader??  but never modified anything la  |
